Scenario: seeing God

Example of how what you read in the Bible now may not be clear as to why it is valuable until you are in the afterlife.

A scenario: you die a believer, and you are in heaven, which is where God is. You notice most people have gone in one direction and are congregating together there, and few people go in another possible direction. In the first direction are people who are uneasy about seeing God directly just yet. They feel they may not be ready in terms of having their thoughts and valuation and so on in line for such a big thing. The people who go straight to see God do it based on...what? Confidence? Are they right to go directly to see God?

Imagine being in that position of making a decision to go one way or the other. If you have the Word of God in you from zealous engaging of the Word of God in your life then you, if you were wise, could draw on it for giving you guidance.

And the part of the Bible that would apply here would most likely be a part that when you read it during your life in the flesh you had no idea would apply to such a situation you now are in.

Exo 3:2 And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed.
Exo 3:3 And Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt.
Exo 3:4 And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I.

And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see...

There are many possible verses and passages in the Bible that would give guidance here. My inclination would be to see God, and I would be prepared. Like Moses..."Here am I."
