Isaiah was in the midst of a people with unclean lips. He was in the midst of it all, and complicit to it all. How many of us are heavily influenced by the society we live in. We end up swearing and cussing as everyone else does (It is the signature trait of the world). And society...so baked in it, the mire and slop of sin, only continues to increase in its rants and ravings. And the spirit of this world as it pushes its agenda, through the atmosphere, the airwaves, and the media. One can so easily be caught up in it all, caught up in the devil's frequency, but God repositions us, just as he repositioned Isaiah...into the midst of his presence, into a holy atmosphere. For anyone who desires to be a mouthpiece for the Lord must first experience a coal of fire from the altar of God.
