2. Pull It Down!
That House Of Bitterness
Isaiah 6:5
[5]Then I said, “It’s all over! I am doomed, for I am a sinful man. I have filthy lips, and I live among a people with filthy lips. Yet I have seen the King, the lord of Heaven’s Armies.” New Living Translation NLT.
The introductory verse quoted above are the words of Prophet Isaiah when he saw three things:
1. The Lord in His glory.
He has been a prophet of God for some years delivering powerful messages from God to His people. He rẹceived and delivered messages from the God Who he knew very little about, if he knew anything about Him. The day he saw Him in His majesty, everything changed for better.
2 He also saw his own nakedness.
Prophet Isaiah saw, in addition to God's majesty, his own filthiness. He has been pointing out the sins of other people without recognising any of his sins. However, on a noticeable day, he saw his true picture.
3. The nakedness of people around him.
The third thing he saw was the filthiness of people among whom he was living. He recognised that their lips were dirty ones.
He then declared his own doom because of discrepancies between the glory of the Lord and his own filthiness. Do you realise something in the episode? He did not immediately declare woe unto those who surrounded him? He tackled himself before anyone else.
Beloved reader, people of filthy lips may have said many unprintable things about you and those that are yours. This may have created a house of bitterness in you. That is, your heart may have become a house where bitterness reigns. Please, note that the bitterness you harbor does more harm than good to your well-being. If you love yourself, pull down that house of bitterness in your heart and it shall be well with you.
Stay blessed and prepared for the imminent coming of the Lord.
