"Woe is me, for I am undone! Because I am a man of unclean lips, And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; For my eyes have seen the King, The LORD of hosts." Isaiah 6:5 How do we become undone? When we feel like we are coming apart, when our sins have been exposed and it is all laid before God and He shows you how you look in that sin. Isaiah felt like he was coming apart because he saw and heard the seraphim and then the vision of God. That is what made him feel and believe and know he was undone. He could not measure up or stand in God's glory because he was a man of unclean lips.

But it is when we realize that He already knows the condition of our walk with Him we can realize fully what kind of people we really are. The Bible says in Isaiah 64:6 "And all our righteousnesses are like filthy rags." we are as filthy rags before the Lord. When Isaiah realized what kind of man he was as he was contrasting himself to the seraphim and then as He contrasted himself to God, he said “Woe is me, for I am undone!” The very thing we measure ourselves to is God and His Word and all His ways and now Isaiah sees the seraphim and realizes that he never could worship the Lord even close to the way the seraphim does. When God shows who we really are then how can we stand before Him and think we are somebody? Isaiah was a righteous God fearing man by all outward standards, but he saw how sinful he truly was “Because I am a man of unclean lips, And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips." What Isaiah feels is in view of God. Everything he goes through is in view of God's holiness. We must see the sinfulness of our hearts, in view of who God is. We need His grace to see it. trust in the work he is bringing about as a result of undoing you…
