Holy, Holy, Holy


God is a holy God we are to come to him with thanksgiving and praise in Christ our righteousness.
 
Isa 6:1  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.
Isa 6:2  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.
Isa 6:3  And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.
Isa 6:4  And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.

Why three holies?  My thoughts were that God is in three persons, that some refer to as the Trinity. The Bible says that three are one God.
 
1Jn 5:7  For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

Last Sunday the brass ensemble that I was with played the beautiful hymn, Holy, Holy, Holy with a full; choir. It was beautiful to worship God in this way. This sharing about the holy Trinity is not to argue doctrines and words, but to glorify God with his people. We are to come together as one body of Christ to worship him in Spirit and in truth. Psalm 150, the last Psalm is to wake us up to Praise God with all that we are.
 
Psa 150:1  Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.
Psa 150:2  Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness.
Psa 150:3  Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp.
Psa 150:4  Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.
Psa 150:5  Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.
Psa 150:6  Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.
 
Let every thing that has breath , praise the LORD!
