Leviticus 9:24 (ESV Strong's)
And fire came out from before the Lord and consumed the burnt offering and the pieces of fat on the altar, and when all the people saw it, they shouted and fell on their faces.
Subject: God's Glory
The study of God's Glory is a remarkable study. In the above passage, after Moses had consecrated the Tabernacle and Aaron and his sons as priest, God came down in the form of fire and consumed the offering. When the people saw it they fell on their faces. Isaiah so God's glory and fell on his face. Moses saw God's glory and had to cover his face because when the nation of Israel saw the glory on his face their were afraid. Paul saw God's glory on the road to Damascus and lost his sight. The three disciples saw God's glory on the mount of Transfiguration and fell down to worship. Seeing God's glory is the blessed hope for believers. We will see Him. Note Paul's Words to the Corinthians:
2 Corinthians 3:18 (ESV Strong's)
And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.
