Daily Lesson for Tuesday 16th of September 2025

After the golden calf apostasy, Moses interceded for God’s people and wanted to be assured that the Lord would continue leading them to the Promised Land. Deep down within his being, he also wanted to know the Lord better.

“Please, show me your glory,” Moses asked the Lord. In His mercy, the Lord did reveal His glory to him. However, when answering Moses’ request, God promised to show him His “goodness.” One can safely conclude that God’s glory is His goodness, that is, His character (see also Ellen G. White, The Acts of the Apostles, p. 576; Christ’s Object Lessons, Pages 414, 415; Prophets and Kings, p. 313).

“It is the glory of God to give His virtue to His children. He desires to see men and women reaching the highest standard.”—Ellen G. White, The Acts of the Apostles, p. 530. His glory is to embrace repentant sinners (see Prophets and Kings, p. 668) and supply everything needed to change them. At the same time, it is our “glory” to reveal His character in our own lives and to make it known to others.

This reflection of God’s character, His goodness, kindness, and tender love, must be seen in our actions. This way, we have a chance to be not only a blessing to the world but a shining light to the onlooking universe. As Paul states: “For it seems to me that God has put us apostles on display at the end of the procession, like those condemned to die in the arena. We have been made a spectacle to the whole universe, to angels as well as to human beings” (1 Corinthians 4:9, NIV). This cosmic dimension gives to our lives and service a meaning and purpose that we can barely begin to imagine.

In Romans 2:4, Paul says that “the goodness of God leads you to repentance” (NKJV). That is, it is God’s goodness and character pointed out by the Holy Spirit that convinces people of their sinfulness and need of salvation. Indeed, when we look at the cross and know who was there (the Lord Himself) and why He was there—because He loved us and this was the only way to save us—we have the greatest revelation possible of His goodness and character.

Exodus points us to a wonderful conclusion with the Israelites being bound for the Promised Land, hence our theme hymn for the quarter being
We Are Bound For The Promised Land – Hymn 620.

“We are daily in God’s university, where there is no graduation but a constant learning process” says Sabbath afternoon’s introduction to this week’s lesson studies. Here we are to ask 
Saviour, Teach Me – Hymn 193.

The Tent of Meeting (Sunday) teaches 
O Worship The Lord – Hymn 6 and then goes on to encourage us to say
I’ve Found A Friend – Hymn 186, 
What A Friend – Hymn 499 and 
Hymn 187 – Jesus, What A Friend For Sinners. We then learn that “Moses was a faithful servant of God” (Deut. 34:5, Josh 1:1), therefore, let us learn this and sing 
O Brother, Be Faithful – Hymn 602.

Monday continues the growth of Moses’ friendship with God. “He drew closer and closer”: 
Hymn 315 – O For A Closer Walk With God. “Moses desired to know God’s character more concretely” and just like Moses, 
We Have Not Known Thee As We Ought – Hymn 291.

“Our hearts and minds can experience a change when we surrender to God and allow Him to be the Lord and King of our lives” is written for Thursday’s study time, so may
I Surrender All – Hymn 309. Then, “Christ, together with His law, can be engraved in our characters only when we fix our eyes on Jesus”: 
Hymn 290 – Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus.

Friday then shows that we will be able to “Let your light so shine before men”, and we can reflect this by showing 
There Is Sunshine In My Soul Today – Hymn 470. “Only shining people can be agents of change.”

Please continue to search the scriptures this week to be blessed, and to bless others.

To learn unknown hymns, you will find the accompaniment music for each one at: https://sdahymnals.com/Hymnal/

Another great resource is for when there is a hymn you wish to sing but can’t find it in your hymnal. Go to https://www.sdahymnal.org/Search and in the search bar type a special word in that is in the hymn. I am sure you will be amazed at the help you will be given.

 2 Timothy 2:15 KJV – “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”
