Hello Church,
In the Book of Isaiah, chapter 6, verses 1-9, Isaiah had a vision of the Lord and it transformed his life. You and I, when we come in contact with God, with Jesus, our lives should never be the same.
Isaiah's vision was three-fold - 1. He Looked Up - SEEING GOD
2. He Looked In - SEEING HIMSELF
3. He Looked Out - SEEING OTHERS
Jesus spoke the words, "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God" (Matt. 5:8). We have seen God more than we think. Have you ever considered that when you see someone get saved, get healed, get delivered, get restored, you have seen God in majesty, awesomeness, glory and power? A vision of the Lord will praise from His people. God hasn't called us to dissect the Gospel, He has called us to DEMONSTRATE the Gospel.
In seeing ourselves, we see our lack, we see how really we can't do anything apart from the Lord. Paul said that he knew in whom he believed and is persuaded the He (God) is able to keep whatever he has committed , whatever he has deposited unto Him until that day. It's not us, IT'S HIM, IT'S JESUS.
In looking out, we see others, we see the lost, those for whom Jesus died for. God asked a question to Isaiah, "Whom shall I send?" We are the ones to go. Jesus said he would make us fishers of men. Proverbs says that he who wins souls in wise. We are to be the voice, the example of what a life in Jesus is all about. The best way to show that a stick is crooked is to lay a straight one next to it. We are the ones that God has called to be a light in this generation. Let's go out and shine wherever we are.
