Genesis 38:1-30; Psalms 15:1-16:11; Matthew 21:33-22:14
But Peter and those with him were heavy with sleep; and when they were fully awake, they saw His glory. Luke 9:32 NKJV
Peter and his friends almost slept through the mountain top event of a lifetime! It wasn’t until they awoke that they were able to see Christ’s glory. We too, if not careful, may fall into an apathetic sleep of complacency, perhaps subconsciously hoping to escape life’s circumstances. Scripture exhorts us that, “It is high time to awake out of sleep” (Rom. 13:11). It is then that the Lord can reveal His glory to us in ways never experienced before. Heed the Lord’s
wake-up call! —E.V.
God reveals His presence;
Let us now adore Him,
And with awe appear before Him. —G. Tersteegen
