Face Down

"Then Moses and Aaron came in from the presence of the assembly to the doorway of the tent of meeting and fell on their faces. Then the glory of the Lord appeared to them; and the Lord spoke to Moses" -Numbers 20.6-7a

Miriam, Moses' sister has died, and the people begin to grumble, again. The place where they are has no water for them to drink, and though God has provided for them in the past, for some reason they don't feel that He can, or will, come through this time. They come assemble against Moses and begin to complain, and Moses and Aaron go humble themselves before they Lord and wait for Him to speak.

They fall face down in the tent of meeting, and God appears in His glory to speak to Moses. They humble themselves before God and God comes to speak to them.

Men, if we would speak to God we must come to Him humbly. We must realize His greatness and our insignificance. We must come before Him in humility, fully surrendered to Him, and when we do, we are able to hear from Him. Are you willing to humble yourself and fall face down before God? Are you willing to be completely vulnerable to God and hear whatever He might have to say?

Let us humble ourselves so that we may hear from God. Let us fall face down in humility so that He can speak to us.

"Iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another."

To God alone be the Glory!
