A Vision of God
Isaiah 6:1 states, “In the year that King Uzziah died I
saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train
filled the temple.”
Isaiah dated
his vision of God by remembering the year that king Uzziah died. Many times we cannot see a vision of God
until the kings in our life are gone. Do
you have anything that is “king” in your life that would keep you from seeing
the Lord Adonay (136) who is the sovereign controller of the universe? If so, the real king Adonay will not be able
to be the sovereign king of your heart.
When Isaiah
saw a vision of who Adonay is, he was able to see himself in proper
perspective. Many church musicians not
only have trouble seeing God high and lifted up and worthy of service and
worship, but also have trouble seeing themselves undone and needing the cleansing with the
coals from off of the altar of God.
Do not let
the following “kings”: self-righteousness, self-actualization, charisma,
performance worship, glitz, glamour, self-aggrandizement, and self-preservation
keep you from receiving a proper vision of Adonay who is the sovereign
controller of the universe. Remember
that all the false kings of a musician’s life must be dead before he or she
will be able to see a proper vision of God.
