In prayer there is similarly a spiritual capturing or beholding that the Apostle Paul spoke of, “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.” (2 Corinthians 3:18) Paul assures us that through communing with the Holy Spirit – while on earth, we may already enjoy heaven in measure.
So not only will we see Him by sight in heaven, but we are called to behold the glory of God by faith, now. This is not too high or too hard, it is for every believer – for those who will seek His face through prayer – in anticipation of the glorious consummation!
The British Theologian John Owen was “doggedly insistent that meditating upon the beatific vision is a
vital practice for all Christians to cultivate” because “our Christian life and thinking should be oriented
toward the hope of the beatific vision, and shaped by the foretaste we receive of it here and now.”

The digital voice is very nice, yet I would have preferred a male narrator for this work.
Fresh yet True to the Original

The abbreviations of biblical books being read in their contracted state was confusing, i.e. Eph for Ephesians being pronounced "F", and especially Ps. for Psalm being pronounced "peas".
Notwithstanding, Owen's work is an outstanding read.
The preeminent glory of Jesus and its benefits to those who hope and trust in Him.
