I’ve been reading in the Bible, in the book of Isaiah. Isaiah was a wonderful prophet of God who lived in the time frame of the last kings of Judah. It was a very important time as far as God was concerned, and He wanted the people of Israel to realize why they were suffering the dreadful things that were happening to them. He called Isaiah one day, and gave him a vision of Himself….. “I saw the Lord, high and lifted up”, he wrote, ” and His train filled the temple…..”

The sight was so awesome that Isaiah fell down with his face to the ground, and his first reaction was, “Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I live in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.”

Because Isaiah admitted he was a sinful man, God sent an angel to clean him up and then gave him a message to take to the people of Israel. God cannot use anyone for His glory until they have been cleansed from their sinful ways. You can read about this in Isaiah chapter 6, verses 1-10.
