What Do You Seek :3 Seeking to See His Beauty - Part 4of4 by Zac Poonen(Malayalam)
Summary
The sermon emphasizes that true spiritual sight—the ability to see God's glory everywhere—comes from a burning passion to see Jesus' beauty. Drawing parallels from Moses' desire to see God's glory (which required death/a veil) and Jesus' crucifixion, the speaker argues that seeing God's glory requires a willingness to confront deep spiritual realities, not just superficial presence. The core message is that what we truly seek dictates what we can see in our lives and the church.
