Is 6:1-7

King Uzziah was a good king most of his life. But today we remember him not for the good he had done, but for the evil he did. He entered into the temple of God and burned incense - something only allowed for the priests. Then the high priest and 80 other priests restrained him from burning incense and told him that he was doing wrong. He got enraged, and then God struck him with leprosy. When he saw that, he fled from the temple. And he was a leper till the day of his death.
May God be gracious to each one of us that we will not be remembered for a final turning from God at the end of our lives. Jesus said that he who endures to the end will be saved (Matt 10:22; 24:13)
It is terrible to become great in your own eyes.  Lucipher is the devil because he became great in his own eyes.

Historically Isaiah was the nephew of king Uzziah. He was born to the king's brother. He was a scribe in the palace of the king, until the day he met with God. It revolutionised his whole life and the stamp of God remained on his life till his death.
A scribe was a respectable position, but when he met with the living God, his whole life changed. It is impossible to remain as you are, if you have met the living God.

What changed his life? When he met with God, he saw Him as the Lord of Hosts, high and lifted up. He got a lofty, exalted view of God and it made a deep impression on him and he never forgot it. He saw God in His holiness, as Moses saw God, before God sent him out to deliver Israel.
It is of crucial importance for your Christian life that you too meet God in His holiness. Unless that happens, you will not succeed as a Christian.

When Isaiah met God in His holiness he suddenly saw his own sin and he confessed his sin. He saw the seraphim fly through the temple, crying, "holy, holy, holy". The seraphims had 6 wings; with 2 they covered their faces, with 2 they covered their bodies and with 2 they flew. Seraphim denotes fire, and most probably refers to their zeal for God.

If God's fire doesn't burn in your life, whose fire burns? The Bible speaks about another possibility - the fire kindled in hell. Those that gossip have this fire of hell on their tongues.

Now the Bible tells us that angels are ministering spirits. We respect them and look up to them as servants of God. But we who are born of God, are made children of the Almighty.

A certain Muslim woman, who visited KwaSizabantu, related how she became a Christian (read more here).

Do you realise what it means to be a Christian? If you behave and dress like the world, it is blasphemy to call yourself a Christian, a child and heir of the living God. It is evil for boys and girls to chat each other up behind their parents' and the church's back, even over cellphones, and then still call themselves Christians. Such people are hypocrites.

We need such fiery preachers as the seraphim today. What does it mean to be holy? To be morally perfect, pure, set apart from sin. If we see God's moral perfection in God's light it will purify us from our sin.

God is holy. You must meet Him in His holiness, that He might revolutionise your whole life.
