Have you seen God?

Just asking y’all.
In ALL His glory?
The answer to that question is “No!”
“Why?” You ask:
In Exodus 33:20, God tells Moses, “You cannot see my face, for no one can see me and live.”
We might recall a few instances in The Word that are almost contradictory, but it speaks of God’s Spirit.
Are you dead? You have His Spirit within you!
Thus the Lord used to speak to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend.”
In Spirit, this is a definite possibility.

In the year of King Uzziah’s death I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, lofty and exalted, with the train of His robe filling the temple.
Isaiah 6:1

Then I said, “Woe is me, for I am ruined! Because I am a man of unclean lips, And I live among a people of unclean lips; For my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.”
Isaiah 6:5

Mind you, it is NOT The face of God! To be blessed to see His Essence, not face upon The Throne is what is described.
We go on, note that God’s “Essence” is seen, no one has or can say “Face.”

Thus I have seen You in the sanctuary, To see Your power and Your glory.
Psalm 63:2

“I have heard of You by the hearing of the ear; But now my eye sees You;
Job 42:5

I saw the Lord standing beside the altar, and He said, “Smite the capitals so that the thresholds will shake, And break them on the heads of them all! Then I will slay the rest of them with the sword; They will not have a fugitive who will flee, Or a refugee who will escape.
Amos 9:1

Then she called the name of the LORD who spoke to her, “You are a God who sees”; for she said, “Have I even remained alive here after seeing Him?”
Genesis 16:13

So Jacob named the place Peniel, for he said, “I have seen God face to face, yet my life has been preserved.”
Genesis 32:30

With him I speak mouth to mouth, Even openly, and not in dark sayings, And he beholds the form of the LORD. Why then were you not afraid To speak against My servant, against Moses?”
Numbers 12:8

By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured, as seeing Him who is unseen.
Hebrews 11:27

and they saw the God of Israel; and under His feet there appeared to be a pavement of sapphire, as clear as the sky itself.
Exodus 24:10

Yet He did not stretch out His hand against the nobles of the sons of Israel; and they saw God, and they ate and drank.
Exodus 24:11

When Gideon saw that he was the angel of the LORD, he said, “Alas, O Lord GOD! For now I have seen the angel of the LORD face to face.”
Judges 6:22

Matthew 18:10

“Not that anyone has seen the Father, except the One who is from God; He has seen the Father.
John 6:46

“He who sees Me sees the One who sent Me.
John 12:45

Jesus said to him, “Have I been so long with you, and yet you have not come to know Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?
John 14:9

“If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; from now on you know Him, and have seen Him.”
John 14:7

“If I had not done among them the works which no one else did, they would not have sin; but now they have both seen and hated Me and My Father as well.
John 15:24

Even in the book of Revelation we learn of the context:
In Revelation 22:4 it states that this experience will take place in the New Heaven and New Earth. This means that the verse is for believers and that the believers will be in their resurrected bodies. Paul calls this “the change” (1 Corinthians 15:50-58). A simple biblical survey of God’s revelation to man reveals that man in his former state cannot look upon the face of God and live, nevertheless experience Him in His fullness.
Consider this brief overview:
• God’s Revelation in Eden (Genesis 2:16-17, 3:8-24)
• God’s Revelation in Heaven (Isaiah 6)
• God’s Revelation on the Mountain (Exodus 33:18-23)
• God’s Revelation in the Tabernacle/Temple (2 Samuel 6:7; 2 Chronicles 26:16-23; Leviticus 10:1-3)
• God’s Revelation Moving (Ezekiel 11:23)
• God’s Glory in Jesus (John 1:14)
• God’s Glory in Spirit (John 16:7)
• God’s Glory in Man (1 Corinthians 3:17)
• God’s Glory in Eternity (Revelation 21:3)
Although far more verses can be used to detail the history of God’s revelation to man, these verses capture the essence of how man’s relationship with God has been injured and limited. God went as far to tell Moses in Exodus 33 that “no man can see My face and live.” Even the Seraphim in Isaiah 6 “covered their faces.” This sheds an important light on Revelation 22:4. When man is finally able to “see the face of God” it will indeed be an incredible moment. This is because man will finally experience the fullness of God. That is, we will finally be able to look upon God the Father and live. John 16:7 arguably reveals that man can only experience so much of God’s revelation at a time, but in Revelation 22:4 we will see and experience Him in full, Amen
