Seeing the Face of God

One look into His eyes will tell us all.

Written by Bill Elliff | Wednesday, October 9, 2024

I cannot imagine the unbounded joy and deep fulfillment of seeing God’s face. It would seem that one look there will explain everything. We will see who He is and understand the height, depth, width, and depth of His love. 

 

There will no longer be any curse and the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and His bond-servants will serve Him. They will see His face, and His name will be on their foreheads.
Revelation 22:3-4

Through the years, it has helped me to consciously enter the Throne Room of heaven when I come to prayer—to mentally and genuinely come, as Jesus told us to do in Matthew 6:6:

But you, when you pray, go into your inner room, close your door and pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you.

This is not some weird, mystical visualization. It is simply meditating on what Jesus told us to do and the multiple pictures of the throne room, the throne, and “One seated on it” that John gives us in the Revelation.

I envision a door that enters God’s throne room. I walk through the door and close it behind me, shutting out everything and everyone of this world. I turn to face the Father to commune with Him.
