💧 Isaiah 6
Isaiah 6 opens with these words: “In the year that king Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up; and his train filled the temple.” The line to keep is Isaiah 6:1: “In the year that king Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up; and his train filled the temple.” Carry the word “year” from that verse into the rest of the day.
Isaiah 6 is a real chapter from the Old Testament. It starts, “In the year that king Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up; and his train filled the temple.” That is not a motto invented for a poster. It is the first sentence a family hears when this page is opened at night.
Keep going a little further. The chapter also says, “He touched my mouth with it, and said, “Behold, this has touched your lips; and your iniquity is taken away, and your sin forgiven.”” Isaiah 6 opens with these words: “In the year that king Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up; and his train filled the temple.” The line to keep is Isaiah 6:1: “In the year that king Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up; and his train filled the temple.” Carry the word “year” from that verse into the rest of the day.
The line worth learning out loud is Isaiah 6:1: “In the year that king Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up; and his train filled the temple.” If the rest of the chapter feels crowded, hold that one sentence until the room is quiet.
What happens first in Isaiah 6? Then try this: Read “In the year that king Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up; and his train…” once more.
