Summary
The speaker uses the account of Moses's desire to be with God rather than entering the Promised Land to illustrate that the ultimate priority for a Christian should be knowing God's face. He argues that our service or desire to share faith should stem from a deep, personal longing for God Himself, rather than from external recognition or benefit. The core message is to seek to know God above all else.

The speaker emphasizes that the Christian goal is to reflect Jesus by growing in personal purity and functioning corporately within the local church. He draws heavily on Psalms 34:19, urging listeners to focus not on the 'why' of suffering, but on the promise that the Lord will deliver them through it. The message concludes with calls to personal prayer, submitting worries to God, and living one's life—thoughts, words, and actions—for God's glory, mirroring Christ's obedience to the Father's will.
