We Need God's Presence

In Exodus 33 and 34, we read that God commanded Israel to go on ahead to the Promised Land, but also that He said He would not go with them. When Israel heard this, they mourned, and Moses pleaded for God to be with them. "If your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here." (Exodus 33:15; NIV). God heard, and promised to be with them. In today's message, Pastor Phil encourages us to consider, if we could have everything we wanted--but we didn't have God's presence--would we choose those things, or would we choose God? Following God brings with it both hardships and rewards, but the ultimate reward of following God is, itself, to know God.
