Isa 6:1-8
Our view of God (what we truly believe) affects every area of our lives.
v1 "I saw the Lord" the ruler, the one in charge. If I saw God, everything would change. "Seated on the throne" God was sitting, completely in control. No worries, God is on the throne. "The train of his robe filled the temple" the length of the train is a symbol of the majesty, power and importance of the person. God does what he wants, he's the boss. Isa 46:10.
v2 Seraphim - burning ones. Ministering to God himself, covering faces and feet is a sign of the holiness of God and the place. Ex 3:3-5 Holy ground.
v3 "Holy, holy, holy" repetition is a marker of importance. Isa 40:25 there is no one like God. You can't measure God on man's chart at all. "The whole earth is full of his glory." God's glory is all around us. Rev 4:8-11. "Holy, holy, holy" will be the cry of heaven.
v4 "the doorposts and thresholds shook" Heaven's worship is going to be loud sometimes. "The temple is filled with smoke" as if God said you can't handle any more.
v5 "WOE" calamity has fallen.
