descendants.’ …

drive out the Canaanites, Amorites, Hittites,
Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites. 3 Go up to

would surely destroy you along the way.” …

favorably on you.’ …

earth.” …

do what you have asked, for I look favorably
on you, and I know you by name.” 18 Moses

presence.”

11. SHOW ME YOUR GLORY
'Some ministries have it. Some don’t. Most
churches want it. Few have it. When a
church has it everyone can tell. And when
one doesn’t....everyone can tell.

12. SHOW ME YOUR GLORY
It is always unique. It is always powerful. It
is always life-changing. Its hard to find but
it’s impossible to miss.
When a ministry has it, the ground seems to
rumble. Everyone hears about it. Come and
visit our church. What’s going on here is
incredible. You have to check it out.

13. SHOW ME YOUR GLORY
God makes it happen, It is from him. It is by
Him, It is for his glory. We can’t create it, we
can’t reproduce it, we can’t manufacture it.
The early church had it, they didn’t create it.
God did but they did work with it.'

your descendants.' I will send an angel before
you and drive out the Canaanites, Amorites,
Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites.

not in the wind…
