Spiritual Vision, Passion And Mission (Isaiah 6:1-8)

Every God-called mission began with a vision. Isaiah saw the glory of God, acknowledged his own sinfulness and that of the people in his generation, which gave birth to the commission of God upon his life. Proverbs 29:18 says, "When there is no vision, the people perish... " Isaiah's heart and spirit also burned with consuming love, passion and compassion to be set apart for God. Today, there is a primary call for all Christians to "stand in the gap" - to intercede and evangelize, "And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it... " (Ezekiel 22:30). Whether we are business people, engineers, farmers, preachers, teachers or in other fields of occupation, let our lights so shine before people in our world as the glory of the Lord is risen upon us!
