*Gods GLORY *
God spoke a blessing upon His people, saying that His face would shine upon them and that He would lift up His countenace upon them.
(Numbers 6:25&26 ) "The LORD make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace.”
Our countenance is simply the way we look. When people look at us, we want them to see something about us that is difference from what they see about everyone else. They cannot read our minds or see into our hearts, but they can see from the glow on our faces that we have something awesome and wonderful.
Our countenance is important. The lookk we have on our faces at work and our tone of voice at home are important. It is important that we smile at one another, haha that we are pleasant and just downright nice to each other. We are supposed to be loving people who reflect God's joy on our faces.. But how do we do that?
The bible talks about Jesus countenance and how it was 'transfigured' when He communed with God the father on the mountian. "His face shone clear and bring like the sun" (Matthew 17.2) We need that same experiance, and it comes to us as it did to Jesus through worshiping God. We look better when we worship God. Worship puts a msile on our faces, and makes us cry at times.. It is almost impossible to have a frown on our faces while we are worshiping or praising God.. If we regularly spend time fellowshipping with God and worshiping Him, our countenacne will carry His presence. We will look strong, joyfull, blissfull, peaceful, instead of stressed..
It's important to spend time with God in prayer and worship each morning so we are filled up and ready to go, before we go out to school and our work places. We want to be filled with Gods glory so the people we encounter each day can encounter God and His presence. The best thing to do is that we, spend more time talkint to God and thanking Him for what He has done in our lives- reconizing the Goodness of God in our lives, then the problems
