The God In Heaven We Need On Earth (6 of 6)

Isaiah 63
1. A couple had two sons, ages 8 and 10, who were also getting into trouble. If anything went on at school or in the neighborhood, the parents knew that their sons were some way involved. The parents were at their wits end about what to do about their sons' behavior. They heard about a minister in town that had been successful in helping unruly children. They set up an appointment for their two sons to meet with the minister. The minister agreed to meet with the boys but only if he could see them individually.
The 8-year-old boy went first. The minister sat the boy down in front of his desk and then very sternly asked, ''Where is God?''

At that time the boy bolted from the room and ran directly home and straight to his brother's room. His brother asked, ''What happened?'' The younger brother replied, ''We are BIG trouble this time. God is missing and they think we did it!''
2. In the passage before us, Isaiah tells us where God is. He tells us that He is in the heavens. Furthermore he tells that the God that is in the heavens is the God that we need on earth.
3. For the past five weeks we have looked at God through the eyes of Isaiah. We have seen in: . (Chapt. 6) That God is a Holy God on His throne .

(Chapt. 25) That God is a God that doeth wonderful things and is worthy of our praise . (Chapt. 40) That God is in a class all to Himself
4. Finally, as we come to chapter 64 Isaiah tells us that this God, a God that is in the heave ...
