Isaiah's experiences the Holiness of God
INTRODUCTION
What is the most impressive thing you have ever seen?
Something that was beyond your ability to fully understand or comprehend.
This is what Isaiah is trying to describe here.
He saw the glory of the Lord, the magnificence of the Lord of Hosts.
Isaiah's Vision
The Holiness of God
Is 6:1
He saw God on His throne saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, God has all authority, all power and deserves all honor and praise.
This throne was massive, "His robe filled the temple" just imagine the most elaborate wedding gown and a train 20'.
What Isaiah saw was so infinitely grander than the most elaborate dress or robe that man could ever produce.
It declares His royalty so far beyond any royalty on earth.
Then Isaiah sees the seraphim, their call shook the foundations and this massive room was filled with smoke.
This was the point at which Isaiah came to the full realization of his own uncleanness.
It was because he saw God's holiness on such a grand scale that I think it shook the foundation of his soul.
The statement "the whole earth is full of his glory." is more of a declaratio
Isaiah's Confession
This led him to a confession and also the realization of the condition of the people in his community.
Isaiah is Forgiven
Then grace was given to Isaiah as one of the seraphim took a piece of coal from the alter and forgave his sins by touching it to his lips.
Isaiah Answers the call
Upon receiving forgiveness for his uncleanness Isaiah eagerly answers the call to proclaim God's message to the people.
A Message to Deliver
How would you respond to this message you were to deliver?
I tried to imagine my response to the seeming hopelessness in the message Isaiah had to deliver.
Isaiah having just realized his own uncleanliness and the feeling of being forgiven but then knowing that the people you wish to proclaim a message to will not be able to hear or understand.
I believe this is what causes his response in vs.11
"How long, O Lord", it's his plea filled question to God to find out how long will the people not be able to hear his message.
God's answer was filled with destruction and exile for all but a few and "The holy seed".
The Takeaways
This chapter is packed with richness but I want you to take away these 3 things.
God has all authority and is holy and worthy of all honor and praise.
Realization of God's holiness causes confession and opens the door to forgiveness
We have a call to answer and tell our generation about the Gospel
God's glory is His holiness manifested.
