DAILY?READINGS: Deut. 7:12 to 8:20; Eccl. 9:11 to 10:20; Luke 8:40-56
In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and His train filled the temple. Isaiah 6:1
Isaiah recalled his meeting with the Lord, as he thought of the death of King Uzziah, in 740 BC. In that year he had seen a leprous King, and the King of Kings. He saw the mortal and the immortal. He saw the passing and the permanent. Those sights changed the direction and purpose of his life (vs 9). I hope you have had such a life-changing experience when you accepted the Lord Jesus. “If any man be in Christ, he is a new creation: old things have passed away; behold, all things are become new” (2 Corinthians 5:17). What has changed for God’s glory since the day of your conversion? —Arnot P. McIntee
Changed from glory into glory, till in heaven we take our place,
Till we cast our crowns before Thee, lost in wonder, love, and praise.—Charles Wesley
