And they shall see HIS FACE...
God's word is very enlightening. It shows us all the mind of God and His ways. It shows us his past dealings with his people and what His plans are for us today and in the future. One of the blessings He has brought to past for his servants is that "we shall see his face" and according to the bible when one sees God's face big things are in store. It seems to represent His presence, favor etc.
Looking up FACE led to many descriptive scriptures that tell of the "seeing of His face" or not. It pointed out only a few but powerful scriptures, with some cross references here. For the rest I have put the link below for further study. This is our inheritance in the Lord!
