“Inside the Tent of Meeting, the LORD would speak to Moses face to face, as one speaks to a friend. ” (Exodus 33:11 NLT)
Moses made space for God, and the Lord showed up! They met together regularly in a tent. Here Moses talked to God face to face, just like he would speak to a close friend. Moses shared every thought openly and listened as God spoke to him directly. Their relationship was intimate, honest, and consistent.
Most of us have an internal dialogue going on at all times. Our mind has conversations going on with itself. This merely creates a whirlwind of thoughts that go nowhere. What if we made space in the center for God and channeled this internal dialogue to God? What if we talked everything over with the Lord, face to face? His thoughts would be our thoughts; His ways would be our ways; His joy would be our joy. This would lead us to having continual fellowship with the Lord--allowing us to pray, to communicate with Him, constantly.
“When you're joined with me and I with you, the relation intimate and organic, the harvest is sure to be abundant. Separated, you can't produce a thing.” (John 15:5 MSG)
