Job 19:25-27
For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth: And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God: Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another: How my heart yearns within me!
Exodus 24:9-11
Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel: And they saw the God of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness. And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw God, and did eat and drink.
Isaiah 6:1-6
In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple. Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory. And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke. Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.
1 John 3:2
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

O Beloved, consider the end of the Christian and the glory that awaits when we shall behold the face of our Lord and Savior and we shall be like Him! He is as the clearness of heaven, full of glory and holiness. In Him is no darkness at all and He shines as the sun above. This end have we as Christians, who will shine as the stars (Dan. 12:3) for all of eternity before the Lamb of God! Let us then have hope and purify ourselves (1 John 3:3), pressing on toward the mark of the high calling of Jesus Christ. Let us lay aside every weight which hinders us, laying aside every sin which easily besets us and run our race with endurance looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith.
Count it no small thing, my brethren, when the Scripture says, "I shall see God." Long for it as Job, who said his heart yearned for that day.
Revelations 22:12-13
And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.

Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
