Isaiah 6:1-13
In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord, high and exalted, seated on a throne; and the train of his robe filled the temple. Above him were seraphim, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying. And they were calling to one another: “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory.”
“Woe to me!” I cried. “I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty.”
Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I. Send me!” He said, “Go and tell this people: Be ever hearing, but never understanding; be ever seeing, but never perceiving.’ Make the heart of this people calloused; make their ears dull and close their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn and be healed.”
Then I said, “For how long, Lord?” Until the cities lie ruined and without inhabitant,
But as the terebinth and oak leave stumps when they are cut down, so the holy seed will be the stump in the land.”
Why?
Isaiah saw the Holy God, so he said I am a man of unclean lips...And the Lord sent an angel clean his mouth.
Isaiah responded to the calling of the Lord and said “Here am I. Send me!" Yes, I will say here I am, send me.
The Lord will destroy all in the land but God still keeps the hope and the seed in the land.

烏西亞王是強國的國王,因此大家會懷疑這國家是否會衰弱。以賽亞的訊息讓百姓安心。神在掌權。聖哉三次,神的榮光,完全聖潔,他的反應是禍哉,覺得自己無法承擔的壓力,先想到自己不潔淨!
以賽亞蒙召時的信息:神的聖潔及拯救人赦免人的罪:救恩的信息。
神要以賽亞去告訴百姓,不是神謳柔軟的人心鋼硬,當人心鋼硬時,神使他們不要不再有機會主義悔改。以賽亞去做的服事是人不聽,以賽亞是一開始就回應,這是真順服,人喜歡和神談條件。
審判當中仍存留神的恩典,神有審判,神依然有恩典!

How?
The Lord is full of love and righteousness. What I can say? I only a little man have been humble before the Lord!
