There is no substitute for the preaching and teaching of God's Word.

Each weekday on enjoying the journey, Scott Pauley leads us in a brief study of Scripture.

Today, on the weekend pulpit, we are happy to share a full-length Bible message given

through Scott's pulpit ministry.

These messages were recorded live in a local church or gospel event in recent days.

It is our prayer that the message will be a help to you today.

I want you to take the Word of God with me this morning and open it to the book of Isaiah, if you will, to Isaiah chapter number 57.

We'll read one verse together in just a moment.

And Isaiah 57 and verse number 15.

As a matter of fact, when I read this passage to you in just a moment,

I'm going to draw your attention to one word.

I have for you today a one word sermon.

Some of you're saying, praise God, from whom all blessings flow. You've been waiting on one of those for a while, haven't you? Don't get your hopes up. It's going to take me a few

minutes to explain the word. Look at Isaiah chapter 57 and verse number 15. Isaiah the prophet writes

under inspiration of the Holy Spirit these words, for thus saith the high and lofty one that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is holy.

I dwell in the high and holy place with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit

to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive

the heart of the contrite ones. There's so many powerful words in this verse. Frankly, as an

evangelist, the great bird of my heart is to see a real revival. I'm praying for it.

I'm praying that our children, that their generation,

will see a mighty move of God.

I believe Jesus is coming soon.
