Chuck Smith emphasizes the omnipresence of God, illustrating that He is present in every corner of the universe and in our personal lives. He discusses how we often forget God's presence due to distractions and busy lives, leading to fear and discouragement. Smith reassures that God's hand is upon us, guiding and comforting us through life's challenges.

Chuck Smith discusses the significance of the brass serpent from Numbers 21, emphasizing how it symbolizes both sin and God's judgment. He explains that while the brass serpent was a means of salvation for the Israelites, it later became an object of worship, leading to a loss of awareness of God's presence. Smith warns against the tendency to idolize relics or past experiences, urging believers to recognize that true worship belongs to God alone. Hezekiah's destruction of the brass serpent serves as a reminder to call things by their true nature and to focus on the present relationship with God rather than past memories. Ultimately, Smith encourages the congregation to move forward in faith, pressing toward the high calling in Christ.
