Scripture: Exodus 31:1-34:35

Denomination: Bible Church

Summary: Moses stood in the gap making a difference, interceding before God for the nation of Israel... God calls us today to be Gap Standers like Moses!

 Radiate Christ as we please God by Standing in the Gap

Exodus 33:17 And the LORD said to Moses, "I will do the very thing you have asked, because I am pleased with you and I know you by name."

• Sought forgiveness & God’s presence 33:12-23

• God heard and answered his prayer 34:5-7

• God renews the covenant the people broke 34:10-28

• Moses’ face glowed with God’s Glory 34:29-35

Slide - Outer Space

Exodus 34:5-7 Then the LORD came down in the cloud and stood there with him and proclaimed his name, the LORD. 6 And he passed in front of Moses, proclaiming, "The LORD, the LORD, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, 7 maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished; he punishes the children and their children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation."

Slide – Moses cut out the tablets/God inscribed “GAP STANDER”

Exodus 34:29 When Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the Testimony in his hands, he was not aware that his face was radiant because he had spoken with the LORD.

Colossians 4:2 Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful.

Apply the Truth…

• Never forget what Christ has done for you!

• One solitary life can make all the difference!

• GOD is looking for men & woman to be Gap Standers… Moses stood in the gap on behalf of the nation of Israel.

• Are we willing to build up the wall and stand in the gap… for your family, your church, your nation? Each other?

• We see our spiritual fortress in shambles. The walls are down and in desperate need of repair.

• Our country is dying spiritually and morally. Our families are disintegrating, relationships being ripped apart.

• There has never been a time in history where we so desperately need people willing to stand in the gap…

Moses was a Gap Stander, are you?

Let’s Pray
