Shaking Things Up

O. T. #1572 "Shaking Things Up"

Isaiah 6-Part 3
And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, Holy is the LORD of Hosts: the whole earth is full of His glory.  (Verse 3)


LET IT GLOW

This is the vision that Isaiah had when he was commissioned as a prophet, a spokesman for God. First, Isaiah saw Jesus seated in His throne in heaven. Next, he saw angels around the throne.
Then, Isaiah heard the song of praise, as one angel declared the holiness of Jesus, and he whole earth is filled with the glory of Jesus.

What is glory?
Glory means splendor. 
According to Webster Dictionary, splendor refers to something excellent. 

Not only are the angels declaring Jesus to be holy, but His glory fills the earth.
Do we look around and recognize the splendor of  Jesus?

On my country road, we still have colored leaves, especially red ones, still hanging on some trees. We have a couple of neighbors who raise sheep. Those little white lambs are so precious. These are evidence of  the splendor of Jesus as His creation honors Him.

Folks, my imagination does not do justice to how splendid Jesus is as He sits in His holiness upon His throne in heaven. My minute mind is so limited. Just think, we have loved ones in heaven seeing Jesus in all His splendor and glory. One day, you and I shall behold Jesus, our glorious Savior. In the meantime, let us sing His praises.

LET IT GROW

What happened when the the angels song praise to Jesus Christ, the Son of God?
Verse 4 tells us: And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke. 

There was a shaking and smoke filled the throne room. God's majesty, power, and presence are evident.

The shaking and smoke symbolize God's holiness as it relates to His wrath and judgment (Exodus 19:16-20; Rev. 15:8). MacArthur

God's moral perfection, properly seen, will purify us from sin, cleanse our mind from our problems, and enable us to worship and serve. (Life Application Study Bible)

Does God's presence shake us up and shake things up in our life?

LET IT GO

Shake us up, Jesus, as we see Your holiness and our sinfulness.
Shake up my prayer life and my Bible study with Your presence.
