Rocking The House

Like some fiery choir, they would call back and forth continually.
Holy, holy, holy is the Eternal, the Commander of heavenly armies!
The earth is filled with His glorious presence!
They were so loud that the doorframes shook, and the holy house kept filling with smoke. Isaiah 6:3-4 (VOICE)

Ever been to a concert or some event where the crowd is on fire for whomever is entertaining them? The room is filled with electricity. Everyone is "in one accord" as they join in singing to the music and being united with one purpose. Mostly, I enjoy this if it is a Christian concert because adding praise to that scenario takes it to the next level.

Can you imagine how Isaiah must have felt in that room with all the seraphim singing and praising God? Like a fiery choir they called back and forth praising God and filling the temple with songs of praise and adoration. Isaiah 6 tells us that they were so loud the doorframes shook! 

WOW! Wish I could be in that place worshipping in that way. The electricity, the excitement, the joy as everyone praised God. There will come a day when we get to worship with the angels in this way and my heart skips a beat to imagine how awesome that will be. 

Until then? We should keep on praising him here and now. The gentle praise of his kids has a mightier impact than the choirs of angels....we forget that we can rock the house with our lives.
