O My God

whew. 


I cannot even express to you the urgency that I feel in my Spirit. Tonight I was reading in Isaiah, getting my Spirit back in line with the Word of God and an overwhelming sense of His Presence hit me between the eyes. There's a million things I read that I could share with you, but the Lord spoke over and over, "I'm about to shake the foundations of the earth...I'm shaking the foundations...I'm gonna shake the earth." Glory to God. 


I hit Isaiah 6, where Isaiah mentions the death of the passion of King Uzziah and He makes the statement, "In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the LORD sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory. And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke."


The (NIV) if that is what you are comfortable with, reads "


"Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty; 
       the whole earth is full of his glory."

At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke.



The Throne Room of God, the Dwelling Place of the Most High shook with the praises of the Elders, of the Angels, and the Saints. Perhaps the largest structure in existence, shook with the Praises of Yahweh. "Holy Holy...the Earth if FILLED!" 


and the Lord says, I'm gonna shake the earth with my Glory. The Whole Earth will be Full of My Glory and all will bow, every tongue brought to confession. 


Fill the earth God. Fill the earth. 


I love Isaiah's response in the next part of the text. "WOE TO ME. WAIT, I'm a MAN OF UNCLEAN LIPS AND I'VE JUST SEEN GOD." O if that was our cry today, WAIT, I'm screwed up, I can see God, there He is, I'm unworthy." O if we could humble ourselves. O if we would look up and see God, High and Lifted up in our own lives. 


How many times do we come to this place where we can see God, in all His Splendor and Glory and forget that we are unclean. There He is, but we're not done with halfway living, with one foot pointed towards the Kingdom and the other left in the muck of our own mess. 


Halfway won't work anymore. Now is the time to throw off the old self, which is the path Jesus said would lead to destruction, now is the time to move in the direction of the Throne Room and join in the Song. "Holy Holy Holy is the Lord God Almighty... The whole earth is filled with the Glory of God." My life is filled with the Glory of God. 


Throw off everything that can hold you back. Cast it aside and run now to the throne room of Grace, for the Lord is about to shake the earth with His Glory.
