Removing God Blockers by Kirk Hunt
In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of His robe filled the temple.
Isaiah 6:1 NKJV
Uzziah is considered by Biblical scholars as a good and faithful king. Still, he may have been blocking Isaiah’s view of God. Anything that blocks your relationship with God is a bad thing. What has to change (or die) to for you to see God again?
If Uzziah obscured Isaiah’s focus on God, the biggest fault lies with Isaiah. Men and women are responsible for their own relationship with God. If you think your view of God is obscured move the obstruction, or yourself, to a different spot.
Too often, we blame others, or circumstances, for our situation. It may not be easy to change, but you have agency for your own life. No matter what happened before, what are you doing now?
God’s glory and majesty filled and overwhelmed to Temple. He is a big God and His splendor can be seen in all of creation. If you cannot see Him, that is because there is something in the way. If you cannot move it, then you must move you.
Of course, that assumes you want to see God. Maybe you are content or comfortable with your situation and state. Your relationship with God, or His calling on your life, will make demands on you. Are you willing to do what it takes to have a clear view of God?
Think: What interferes with my view of God? What will I do about it?
Pray: “Lord, help me to remove anything that blocks my focus on you.”
