    Series: Glimpses of God
    Questions for Discussion & Application
    1. What was confusing, convicting, or encouraging from this study of scripture?
    2. What words typically come to your mind when you think of God?
    3. What word would come to Isaiah’s mind in describing God after his vision?
    4. What does it mean to say that God is holy? How does a vision of God’s holiness impact you?
    5. What is Isaiah’s response to his vision of the holy God?
    6. Why is a proper vision of God the path to true humility?
    7. God did not overlook or excuse Isaiah’s sin, rather He cleansed him of it. How can we experience God’s forgiveness and cleansing? Do you have assurance of such cleansing from your own sin?  If so, how has this assurance changed your life?
    8. Isaiah’s experience of seeing God’s holiness and being cleansed of his sin, led him to surrender himself completely to the purpose of God for his life. Have you experienced this same surrender to God in your own heart and life? (See Luke 9:23 to see how Jesus calls us to this surrender.)
