2 Corinthians 3v7-9
Now if the ministry of death, carved in letters on stone, came with such glory that the Israelites could not gaze at Moses’ face because of its glory, which was being brought to an end, will not the ministry of the Spirit have even more glory? For if there was glory in the ministry of condemnation, the ministry of righteousness must far exceed it in glory.

We read the Old Testament often times in awe of how God showed up physically performing powerful miracles; (Moses, Noah, Joshua) but as Paul explains here, that power and glory pales in comparison to the new covenant with Christ that brings righteousness to all. That power that parted the seas, it is inside us through the Spirit given to us in the resurrection of Christ. Take a moment today to grasp that, feel that, and believe, He is with us and is the same God old testament, new testament, and forever.

2 Corinthians 3 17-18
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.
