1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:02,700
And Isaiah chapter six beginning
of verse 8. 

2
00:00:02,700 --> 00:00:07,500
The Bible said in the year that 
King Uzziah died, I saw also the

3
00:00:07,500 --> 00:00:11,200
Lord sitting upon a throne high 
and lifted up and his train 

4
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:15,600
filled the temple and it's stood
above it stood the seraphim. 

5
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,300
Each one had six wings with 20 
covered his face with Twain. 

6
00:00:19,300 --> 00:00:25,800
He covered his feet with 22 fly.
And one Cried unto another and 

7
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:30,800
said, holy holy, holy is the 
Lord of hosts. 

8
00:00:31,300 --> 00:00:36,300
The whole earth is full of his 
glory and the post of the door, 

9
00:00:36,300 --> 00:00:40,700
moved at the voice of him that 
cried and the house was filled 

10
00:00:40,700 --> 00:00:45,700
with smoke. 
Then I said, what was me for. 

11
00:00:45,700 --> 00:00:48,600
I am undone because I'm a man of
unclean lips. 

12
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:52,200
And I dwell in the midst of a 
people of unclean, lips for mine

13
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:54,800
eyes. 
Have seen the king, the Lord of 

14
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,600
hosts. 
Then flew one of the seraphim's 

15
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:01,700
unto me having a live coal in 
his hand, which he had taken 

16
00:01:01,700 --> 00:01:04,099
with the tongs from off the 
Altar. 

17
00:01:04,700 --> 00:01:08,700
And he laid it, upon my mouth 
and said, Lo this have touched 

18
00:01:08,700 --> 00:01:12,300
on the lips and thine iniquity 
is taken away. 

19
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,600
And that sin is purged. 
Also, I heard the voice of the 

20
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:21,500
Lord saying, whom shall I send? 
And who will go for us? 

21
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:26,300
And then said, I here, am I send
me? 

22
00:01:28,500 --> 00:01:32,700
the vision of God seen by Isaiah
In, this passage is his original

23
00:01:32,700 --> 00:01:37,600
call to being the great 
Messianic Prophet that were 

24
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:42,700
familiar with I've often 
wondered as I considered this 

25
00:01:42,700 --> 00:01:47,500
thought as to why Isaiah skull 
would happen in chapter 6. 

26
00:01:48,500 --> 00:01:51,700
And finally, I've come to the 
conclusion that the reason that 

27
00:01:51,700 --> 00:01:56,100
it didn't come until chapter 6, 
as Isaiah just wasn't ready for 

28
00:01:56,100 --> 00:01:59,700
it. 
The Messianic Prophet said that 

29
00:01:59,700 --> 00:02:04,300
he saw the Lord sitting upon a 
stump on the throne. 

30
00:02:05,100 --> 00:02:08,699
He had never seen anything like 
this in his life. 

31
00:02:09,199 --> 00:02:11,900
Called into the very presence of
the Lord God of all the 

32
00:02:11,900 --> 00:02:15,700
universe. 
Not only was God sitting upon a 

33
00:02:15,700 --> 00:02:20,100
throne but he was high and 
lifted up. 

34
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:26,300
I want to say Brethren that the 
movement toward God, He's always

35
00:02:26,300 --> 00:02:29,000
in that direction. 
It is high. 

36
00:02:30,100 --> 00:02:35,700
And lift it up the ancient Kings
Thrones were Majestic and golden

37
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,200
Solomon's. 
Throne was glorious at the 

38
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:43,500
summit of six steps for he was 
high and lifted up. 

39
00:02:44,500 --> 00:02:49,200
But not like this, throne. 
This was illuminated by the 

40
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,700
presence of God. 
And it was the essence of 

41
00:02:52,700 --> 00:02:56,200
Brilliance as Jehovah. 
God said on the magazine fit 

42
00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:00,100
magnificent, Throne, the skirts 
of his robe, filled the temple 

43
00:03:00,900 --> 00:03:04,500
and Isaiah had never seen 
anything like that. 

44
00:03:04,500 --> 00:03:06,700
Either. 
The room was full. 

45
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:13,500
Of the Lord God it was a holy 
place, above him, stood the 

46
00:03:13,500 --> 00:03:16,800
seraphim. 
Majestic creatures. 

47
00:03:18,100 --> 00:03:22,400
Standing for no one can sit in 
the presence of God, and each of

48
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,600
them had six wings. 
And I think the idea of the six 

49
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:30,400
wings, probably describes their 
ability for a very rapid flight 

50
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,200
to be able to carry out, the 
will of God wherever that might 

51
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,100
be. 
And whatever the situation may 

52
00:03:36,100 --> 00:03:40,500
be one pair of wings covered his
face in the glory of God, two 

53
00:03:40,500 --> 00:03:44,500
Wings covered his feet soil by 
his daily work. 

54
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:48,600
And the third was a pair of 
wings than a Told him to just 

55
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:52,300
hover in The Nearness of God, 
that he might be called. 

56
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:59,000
And ready when the Lord needed 
him, one of the Angels Cried. 

57
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:03,800
Holy holy holy is the Lord of 
hosts and the whole earth is 

58
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:08,000
full of his glory, but we can't 
forget that Isaiah started by 

59
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:13,300
saying that this was in the year
that King Uzziah died. 

60
00:04:13,900 --> 00:04:17,700
The time of this Vision happened
in a time that the Ancients 

61
00:04:18,300 --> 00:04:22,900
would always remember the year 
that Uzziah died. 

62
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,400
Isaiah remembers when God called
in. 

63
00:04:27,700 --> 00:04:32,100
Do you remember? 
When you answered that call. 

64
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:39,400
This call came to Isaiah the 
year that Uzziah died. 

65
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:47,600
He was 759 BC, that was two 
thousand seven hundred and 

66
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,900
seventy-eight years ago and uses
I was a great king for Judah. 

67
00:04:51,900 --> 00:04:55,300
Second Chronicles chapter, 26 
tells us that he became King 

68
00:04:55,300 --> 00:04:59,100
when he was 16 and that he 
reigned in Jerusalem for 52 

69
00:04:59,100 --> 00:05:02,100
years and he was one of the 
great Kings because the people 

70
00:05:02,100 --> 00:05:05,200
of God had drifted far away and 
he had brought them back to Joe.

71
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:10,400
About verse 16 says, but when he
was strong, as heart was lifted 

72
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:16,300
up to his destruction. 
What a note? 

73
00:05:17,300 --> 00:05:22,200
For us to make to our self. 
He went into Temple Lord. 

74
00:05:24,300 --> 00:05:29,000
In his exultation to burn 
incense on the altar. 

75
00:05:30,100 --> 00:05:33,800
Uzziah was a king. 
He was not a priest. 

76
00:05:35,100 --> 00:05:37,700
But he was so full of himself 
that he thought he could do 

77
00:05:37,700 --> 00:05:42,500
anything, the high priest and 80
other priests resisted him. 

78
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,800
But the King was so angry. 
And with a sensor, still in his 

79
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:49,300
hand, little spots. 
Begin to rise on his forehead. 

80
00:05:49,300 --> 00:05:54,100
And he got leprosy. 
And he was taken from the temple

81
00:05:54,100 --> 00:06:00,700
of God to isolated house. 
And died in that house. 

82
00:06:01,900 --> 00:06:08,000
Rather than you cannot approach 
God in Pride and Disobedience. 

83
00:06:08,900 --> 00:06:14,200
Isaiah could never forget this 
moment it was the year that King

84
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,300
Uzziah died. 
Where were you when President 

85
00:06:17,300 --> 00:06:22,100
Kennedy was assassinated? 
That was something that we 

86
00:06:22,100 --> 00:06:24,500
probably all. 
Remember, I was in Miss floods, 

87
00:06:24,500 --> 00:06:28,400
chemistry class, my junior year 
and Del City High School. 

88
00:06:29,300 --> 00:06:34,000
I will never forget when that 
announcement was made. 

89
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:39,600
Isaiah would never forget this 
occasion because it was the year

90
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,700
that Uzziah died. 
The seraphim said, holy holy, 

91
00:06:43,700 --> 00:06:47,500
holy is the Lord of hosts. 
The whole earth is full of his 

92
00:06:47,500 --> 00:06:49,200
glory. 
What is holiness? 

93
00:06:50,500 --> 00:06:54,200
And in the Greek term means 
separation to God. 

94
00:06:55,300 --> 00:06:59,800
And I think this is God's most 
outstanding characteristic. 

95
00:07:01,300 --> 00:07:05,500
It is his uniqueness. 
It is his Oneness. 

96
00:07:07,100 --> 00:07:09,400
I like to call it his other 
notice. 

97
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:16,300
Because there was no other like 
him and never will be. 

98
00:07:17,500 --> 00:07:23,200
Leviticus chapter 11 and verse 
45 says, for I am the Lord that 

99
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,500
bringeth you up out of the land 
of Egypt, to be your God, and 

100
00:07:26,500 --> 00:07:31,500
you shall therefore be holy for.
I am Holy First Peter, chapter 

101
00:07:31,500 --> 00:07:36,300
1, verse 15 and 16 says, but as 
he is, which has called you is 

102
00:07:36,300 --> 00:07:40,700
Holy so be ye holy in all manner
of conversation because it is 

103
00:07:40,700 --> 00:07:44,600
written be holy. 
For I am. 

104
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,900
Holy. 
Brother, this is one of the real

105
00:07:47,900 --> 00:07:53,400
cores of scripture. 
When God called us from the 

106
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,500
world of the Gospel of Jesus 
Christ, he called us to be a 

107
00:07:56,500 --> 00:08:00,400
holy people. 
And one of our lessons, this 

108
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:06,300
morning was about the details. 
You can clearly see that and 

109
00:08:06,300 --> 00:08:11,900
Isaiah's call, God is Holy his 
Essence, separates him from 

110
00:08:11,900 --> 00:08:15,600
everything else. 
And so when the call of God goes

111
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:20,000
out, it comes to us. 
We're invited to come to him in 

112
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:24,600
verse 4 says that the post of 
the doors, moved at the voice of

113
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:30,900
him that cried and that the 
house was filled with smoke. 

114
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:37,100
Don't ever forget, Brethren that
when Heaven speaks things Shake.

115
00:08:38,700 --> 00:08:44,800
The doors. 
To the room where God was shook.

116
00:08:46,100 --> 00:08:50,200
When the voice of Heaven spoke 
and Isaiah said it was filled 

117
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,600
with smoke for our God is a 
consuming fire. 

118
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:57,600
Do you remember when Moses was 
at Mount Sinai and got the law? 

119
00:08:58,500 --> 00:09:01,000
There was earthquakes and fire 
and smoke. 

120
00:09:02,100 --> 00:09:05,800
Same thing. 
Isaiah seize on this occasion. 

121
00:09:07,900 --> 00:09:15,000
Do you remember the vision of 
God in this life? 

122
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:21,800
whether it is natural or 
aesthetic, Cannot but produce 

123
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:27,000
and the beholder, a deep feeling
of our own unworthiness. 

124
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,900
She's not a person in this room 
tonight. 

125
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:37,100
Who deserves the salvation of 
Jesus Christ. 

126
00:09:39,300 --> 00:09:44,500
And he had, isn't it amazing? 
That God has seen fit to call 

127
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:52,000
each of us. his kingdom and 
don't you dare miss the idea 

128
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:59,900
that when he called Isaiah and 
any other He calls him to do the

129
00:09:59,908 --> 00:10:05,000
work of God. 
Exodus chapter 3 and verse 5, 

130
00:10:05,500 --> 00:10:07,800
God said to Moses draw, not nigh
hither. 

131
00:10:08,500 --> 00:10:13,500
Put off thy shoes from off thy 
feet for the place where thou 

132
00:10:13,500 --> 00:10:16,500
stand. 
Is Holy Ground. 

133
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,900
When you look at their six and 
that passage, you'll find why he

134
00:10:20,900 --> 00:10:24,700
decided it was Holy Ground. 
It was not wholly because the 

135
00:10:24,700 --> 00:10:28,600
Bush was burning and not 
consumed, it was not wholly 

136
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,900
because of Any miracle that 
happened, it was holy because 

137
00:10:31,900 --> 00:10:36,500
God was there. 
And Isaiah finds the same thing 

138
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:40,100
in this passage. 
Isaiah came saying that the 

139
00:10:40,100 --> 00:10:43,800
people had sinned with their 
lips and that they were undone, 

140
00:10:44,700 --> 00:10:48,300
they could not stand in the 
presence of God. 

141
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:55,000
You know, when you look at 
Christian life, I don't really 

142
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:58,000
know a quicker way that you can 
lose your influence then with 

143
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:04,000
your mouth. 
Isaiah had sin with his lips. 

144
00:11:05,900 --> 00:11:09,000
And because of that, he said, 
I'm undone. 

145
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:11,900
And that's what made me. 
Draw the conclusion. 

146
00:11:11,900 --> 00:11:14,900
That the reason that the call of
Isaiah is in chapter 6, instead 

147
00:11:14,900 --> 00:11:19,100
of chapter one, Because he 
wasn't ready in chapter one. 

148
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:25,800
His wasn't ready, are you? 
You really ready? 

149
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:30,200
To serve God are for one reason 
or another. 

150
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:36,700
Do you find yourself undone? 
as Isaiah said, he was, And 

151
00:11:36,700 --> 00:11:40,400
because of that, he could not 
stand in the presence of God, 

152
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,800
he's out in the hall. 
Looking through the door, you'll

153
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,000
notice he's not said anything 
about the face of God. 

154
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,200
He's not seen it all. 
He's seen is the illumination of

155
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,800
the almighty God and the robes 
that fill the room. 

156
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:54,200
He recognizes the presence of 
God, but he has not seen him. 

157
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,700
Isaiah is in the temple of God. 
When this happens. 

158
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:10,000
He's in the presence of God. 
Isaiah did what we all need to 

159
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:15,000
do and keep doing. 
And that's going back to the 

160
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:21,100
house of God. 
We need to just keep going back 

161
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:26,500
to the house of God. 
We keep seeking the presence of 

162
00:12:26,500 --> 00:12:29,000
God. 
Secondly, Isaiah confessed, his 

163
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,900
sins and wasn't? 
He honest when he described 

164
00:12:32,900 --> 00:12:37,000
himself, while he blame society,
the society wasn't much 

165
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:42,100
different than he but 
nonetheless, he acknowledged his

166
00:12:42,100 --> 00:12:47,000
sins before God and before his 
mission for God? 

167
00:12:48,100 --> 00:12:53,000
Watch to begin. 
In verse 6 and 7 then flew. 

168
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,600
One of the seraphim's unto him 
having a live coal in his hand, 

169
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,800
which he had taken with a tongs 
from off the Altar. 

170
00:13:00,500 --> 00:13:04,600
And he laid it, upon my mouth 
and said, Lo this is touched thy

171
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,400
lips. 
And thine iniquity is taken away

172
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:11,700
in my sin, Is purged. 
Can you imagine just picture 

173
00:13:11,700 --> 00:13:15,600
that picture that angel taking a
hot coal off the altar of 

174
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:19,500
incense and flying over by 
Isaiah and placing it on his 

175
00:13:19,500 --> 00:13:27,300
tender lips. 
Sacrifice was painful. 

176
00:13:28,900 --> 00:13:33,100
But efficient. 
And it was declared that that 

177
00:13:33,100 --> 00:13:40,100
had made him clean. 
And it was only then that he 

178
00:13:40,100 --> 00:13:43,500
would become the great Messianic
prophet. 

179
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:51,100
Rather than we need to repent. 
We need to confess. 

180
00:13:52,700 --> 00:13:58,100
We need to go back to the temple
and we need to seek the presence

181
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:02,300
of the Lord.
