Lesson 1: Isaiah’s vision.

Isaiah 6:1-8 - This passage recounts the Prophet Isaiah’s vision of God in the temple. He sees the Lord seated on a high throne, surrounded by angels calling out, “Holy holy holy is the Lord God Almighty.” The temple shakes and smoke fills the space, overwhelming Isaiah with a sense of his unworthiness. One of the angels touches his lips with a burning coal from the altar, symbolically cleansing him. Then, God asks, “Whom shall I send?” and Isaiah responds, saying, “Here I am, send me!” This marks Isaiah’s calling and commissioning as a prophet.
