Title: What does the glory of God look like?    
  
  
  
  

   

  
  
  
  


And he said, I beseech you, show me your glory.

Moses wanted to see the face of God.     

This may have been a presumptuous request but it was very human.     

People still want God to show Himself.

And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before you, and I will proclaim the name of the Lord before you; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show kindness on whom I will show kindness.

Preincarnat Jesus speaks to Moses about His goodness and may have even given Him His name.     He tells Him of His Grace that comes out of His goodness and His love.     How that He will be merciful out of His own goodness.

And he said, You can not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.

God is a Spirit.     He is the Holy Spirit.     
    physical beings cannot see spiritual things with their eyes
    God created the vast universe so He is bigger than what He created.     

Seeing and living implies that a living physical human cannot see the Holy Spirit.     

Jesus confirmed this to Nocodemus saying that the Holy Spirit is not visible.     You only see the evidence of Him by that which He effects.     

The one speaking to Moses is preincarnate Jesus whom neither Moses nor anyone living at that time could see because it was not yet time for the Holy Spirit to reveal Himself to mankind In Christ Jesus.

Jesus says unto her, Said I not unto you, that, if you would believe, you should see the glory of the Lord?

This statement is a specific instance of the general:
If you believe you will see the glory of the Lord.

For the Lord, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, has shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of the Lord in the face of Jesus Christ.

We cannot see the Holy Spirit but we can see His glory in the face of Jesus Christ our Saviour and Lord.     

What is Holy Spirit glory?     
It is the intensity, consistency, persistence and pervasiveness of His love.     

It is in the knowledge of His glory, His love, that our lives are lit up.     

Our Lord Jesus Christ is the proof of Holy Spirit love manifesting His glory.     

Faith in the love of the Lord is foundational to receiving the things of of the Lord.     

Jesus is The Glory Of God.

Jesus is The Glory Of God.

And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of the Lord did lighten it, even the Lamb is the light thereof.

Here we see our Lord Jesus, who is the Lamb slain before the foundation of the world, being the light of our lives.
