2 Corinthians 4:18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
Well, there will be no time to write a Lunch-Time thought today, so I will write a coffee-break thought! Actually, I have the privilege of preaching at Northstar's chapel today, which for some reason is one of the hardest venues wherein I have had to preach.
The topic of the message for NCA today is trying to establish a biblical reality as opposed to the reality that is presented to people today. My opening illustration has to do with "Reality TV" and how that is not reality at all, yet so many people in our society think that TV is what real life is supposed to be like.
Isaiah 6 is my text, and the first four verses have to do with God seated on His throne, and the seraphims and all of this spiritual activity going on. The point there is that there really is a spiritual world, and that according to 2 Corinthians 4:18, the spiritual world is more real, or more important, at least, than the physical world.
Then there's God... Holy, Holy, Holy, the LORD of hosts! The whole earth is full of His glory! If we could live our lives daily with that perception, recognizing the Holiness of the Lord, seeing His glory in the whole of the earth, what a difference that would have on our day and on our Christian walk.
Just a thought...
