00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.800
Today we are going to take a posture of peace by looking for something that according to the

2
00:00:06.800 --> 00:00:15.360
word of God the whole earth is filled with. Posture is a short audible fist bump to remind

3
00:00:15.360 --> 00:00:21.280
you God is with you in everything. Together we're going to be emboldened to take a daily posture

4
00:00:21.280 --> 00:00:32.080
of perfect peace. In Isaiah chapter 6 the prophet Isaiah shares a vision that he has of God

5
00:00:32.080 --> 00:00:39.920
seated on his throne. Can you even imagine? And there are angels around the throne and Isaiah

6
00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:46.080
chapter 6 verse 3 says that the angels are calling out to one another and gosh aren't you curious

7
00:00:46.080 --> 00:00:51.680
about what the angels around the throne of God are calling out to one another. Well verse 3 tells us

8
00:00:51.680 --> 00:00:59.600
it says that they called out to one another saying holy holy holy is the Lord almighty.

9
00:01:00.400 --> 00:01:10.400
Now don't miss this the whole earth is full of his glory. I feel as though I have been

10
00:01:10.960 --> 00:01:18.000
recaptured by this scripture recently. I've shared before in a previous episode gosh a long time ago

11
00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:24.800
I think it was episode 6 of how sometimes I can become so familiar with the scripture like maybe

12
00:01:24.800 --> 00:01:30.160
this scripture is familiar to you or you've heard this phrasing before. I can become so familiar

13
00:01:30.160 --> 00:01:35.600
with the scripture that I no longer familiarize myself with it meaning I no longer seek to gain

14
00:01:36.160 --> 00:01:43.680
a greater grasp on it. Gosh I hate to say this but if I'm not aware I can treat familiar

15
00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:48.720
scripture passages passively like as if they're merely platitudes it's just like oh well I've got

16
00:01:48.720 --> 00:01:52.400
that one and I'm just trying to move on to the next thing like I know that one already but

17
00:01:52.400 --> 00:01:58.720
I've asked my helper our helper the holy spirit to help me not to do that anymore because I want

18
00:01:58.720 --> 00:02:04.720
to stay open to his leading me into all truth. I want to treat the truth like it's the truth. I want

19
00:02:04.720 --> 00:02:10.240
to trust the truth and nothing on earth is more true than the word of God so I always want to come

20
00:02:10.240 --> 00:02:18.720
to the word of God with reverence awe wonder astonishment and openness to all that the truth

21
00:02:18.720 --> 00:02:27.840
has to say. So this passage of truth that we find in Isaiah 6 holy holy holy is the lord almighty

22
00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:41.440
the whole earth is full of his glory the whole earth where we live is full of his glory now do

23
00:02:41.440 --> 00:02:48.240
you see his glory here on earth are you looking for it are you actively partnering with it are

24
00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:56.080
you pointing it out to others the whole earth is full of it his glory his splendor his abundance

25
00:02:56.080 --> 00:03:04.400
it's here where we live the whole earth is full of it you know it's so easy to see all the other

26
00:03:04.400 --> 00:03:10.560
things that the earth seems to be filled with right now sin injustice pain and when that's all

27
00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:18.960
we see when that's all we behold we become suffocated and stuck and hopeless consider the

28
00:03:18.960 --> 00:03:25.600
implication of this truth ponder it take it to heart today think about it if the whole earth is

29
00:03:25.600 --> 00:03:34.640
filled with his glory are we then surrounded by it are we hemmed in by it are we touched by it can

30
00:03:34.640 --> 00:03:46.480
we be transformed by it now don't forget second corinthians chapter 3 verse 18 says this about

31
00:03:46.480 --> 00:03:55.840
those who turn to the lord and behold his glory it says and then we with unveiled face beholding

32
00:03:55.840 --> 00:04:04.080
the glory of the lord are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to the

33
00:04:04.080 --> 00:04:12.480
to another for this comes from the lord who is the spirit i want to encourage you today

34
00:04:13.280 --> 00:04:21.200
before you scroll before you search all the news reports behold the glory of the lord

35
00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:28.640
search seek out the glory of the lord that the whole earth is full of

36
00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:40.080
and be expecting to be transformed by it today the promise of perfect peace is found in isaiah

37
00:04:40.320 --> 00:04:49.600
26 3 in hebrew it is shalom shalom meaning complete wholeness nothing missing nothing broken

38
00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:58.960
this is who you are in jesus because of jesus you are a living testimony of jesus's ultimate win

39
00:04:58.960 --> 00:04:59.840
with every step

40
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:06.000
If you take today, you're putting Jesus' victory on display and Satan's defeat on replay.
