(God Set His Very Own In Order)
Isa 6:1 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.
Isa 6:2 Above it stood the seraphims: each one had
six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet,
and with twain he did fly.
Isa 6:3 And one cried unto another, and said, Holy,
holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole
earth is full of his glory.
Isa 6:4 And the posts of the door moved at the voice
of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
Isa 6:5 Then said I, 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 mine
eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.
Isa 6:6 Then flew one of the seraphims unto me,
having a live coal in his hand, which he had
taken with the tongs from off the altar:
Isa 6:7 And he laid it
upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is
taken away, and thy sin purged.
Isa 6:8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying,
Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.
Job 32:8 But there is
a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding.
Job 32:9 Great men are not always
wise: neither do the aged understand judgment.
2Ti 3:15 And that from a child thou hast known the
holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith
which is in Christ Jesus.
THESE
PEOPLE IN THIS CHANNEL IS INFLUENCED FROM TWO DIFFERENT SIDES.
Here, let's
give a little picture here, a little mental picture. Here's a stream
right through here, right down through this way, coming down through life (Now,
watch as it channels. Give me your undivided attention now, so you won't
miss this.), right down like this. Now, in this little channel here dwells
mortal beings, you and I. And now, in there, let's look what it is. It's
a mass of frolic and everything else, but once in a while you'll see a light.
You see blackness and streaks; that's gaiety and carrying-on, devils
getting the people. Oh, they dress fine, my, and highly cultured as they
can be, polished scholars, but still the devil. But there's borned
again setting in there.

SERAPHIMS
HAD TO USE WINGS, GOD'S PROVIDED WAY TO HIDE THEIR FACE, … REVERENCE IN HIS
PRESENCE!
121
And when he did, he looked up and he saw these Seraphims. They
had two wings over Their faces, and two wings over Their feet,
and were flying with two wings, crying, "Holy, holy, holy is the
Lord God Almighty! Holy, holy, holy, all of God is holy! Holy, holy, holy is
the Lord God Almighty!"
122
Let's look at the vision the prophet saw, and break it down. Two
wings covered Their faces.Think of it, even holy Angels had to hide
Their sinless faces, to stand in the Presence of God. Was given wings to
hide Their face, in the Presence of the holy God! How are you and I going to
stand There, if the Seraphims had to use wings, God's provided way to hide
Their face, to stand in His Presence, to sing, "Holy, holy, holy is the
Lord God Almighty"? Reverence in His Presence!
NOW
NOTICE, SECONDLY, WITH TWO WINGS THEY COVERED THEIR FEET
128 Now notice, secondly, with two wings
They covered Their feet. What did that mean? Humility before God,
in His Presence.
129
Like Moses at the burning bush, took off his shoes, when he heard Him
say, "I AM THAT I AM.“ Paul, on his road down to Damascus,
he--he fell on his face.
130
John, when he saw the--the Spirit of God above Jesus, he said, "I
have need to be baptized of Thee, and why comest Thou unto me?"
131
Here is a good example. Always be conscious of your littleness,
not your bigness.
AND
THIRD SET OF WINGS, NOW, HE PUT HISSELF INTO ACTION.
135
Thirdly, He could fly by the other two.
136
Now remember, two, He covered His face, in the Presence
of God, and to be reverent. Secondly, the two wings over His feet
meant humility, before God. And third set of wings, now, He put
Hisself into action. He could fly with them two wings, see. Two over His
face, two over His feet, and flying with two, now what was it? Reverence,
humility, and in action.
137 God showed the prophet how His
prepared servant must be; reverent, humble, and in action. Now he
seen something different from Uzziah produced. He was showing the prophet what
he must be, not like Uzziah, but to be like these Heavenly Cherubims. And
if you want to look at a king, a earthly king... Look at a Heavenly One,
exalted above all the Heavens, and His train filled the Heavens.
EVERYBODY
JUST THINKS HE IS SO SECURED…
123
Now we don't have any reverence to God. Everybody just thinks he is
so secured, till they--they don't--they don't reverent God like they should.
Why? Why do they do this? Because they're not conscious of His Presence.
That's the reason people do that. They, they don't recognize It. They can't,
they can't comprehend that they're in the Presence of God. Their minds
become so perverted and taken up in the things of the world, till they don't
even pay any attention to It. They go to church, sure. But to realize
that you're in the Presence of God! Not only in a church; wherever you are,
you're in the Presence of God.
124
If they could do as David said, "I put the Lord always before
my face, therefore I shall not be moved."As long as the Lord was
before him, he could not be moved.
REVERENCE
IN HIS PRESENCE!
122
Let's look at the vision the prophet saw, and break it down. Two
wings covered Their faces. Think of it, even holy Angels had to hide Their
sinless faces, to stand in the Presence of God. Was given wings to hide
Their face, in the Presence of the holy God! How are you and I going to
stand There, if the Seraphims had to use wings, God's provided way to hide
Their face, to stand in His Presence, to sing, "Holy, holy, holy is the
Lord God Almighty"? Reverence in His Presence!
LET THE
WORD OF GOD INFLUENCE YOU.
163
See, those things could happen, and it'll be a past time and you won't
know it. You can't afford to take that kind of a chance. Don't do it, friends.
Come in while you can. Don't be influenced by some great big building, some
great big organization, some great high-polished scholar. Let the Word of
God influence you. That's exactly what caused those apostles. When they
seen that Word made manifest, that influenced them, "We are sure!"
YOU
HONOR GOD, YOU LOVE GOD, YOU RESPECT GOD; AND GOD IS THE WORD.
125 And these
Heavenly sacrifice burners with wings over Their faces, and crying, "Holy,
holy, holy," to stand in the Presence of God, what will happen to a sinful
people that won't reverence God
126
You say, "Well, Brother Branham, you just said They were
provided with two wings."
127
And you are provided with something, too, the Blood of Jesus Christ.That's
your covering.That, you don't stand as a Seraphim, you don't stand
as a Cherubim, you don't stand as an Angel. But, you stand as a
redeemed son or daughter of God, by this Blood.You don't have to have
these wings that They had. They're a special covering for Them in that
Presence. But you've got the Blood of Jesus Christ for a covering, to stand
There.Now how... Now, you, if you've got that Blood, then you
honor God, you love God, you respect God; and God is the Word.
93
If you're a good housewife, if God has blessed you as a housewife and
made you loyal and true, sister, you just continue to be that.Don't get
thinking, you, God called you to be a preacher, or--or a deacon, or something
else.
94
And--and you do the same, man. Wherever God has blessed you, there
abide, 'cause that's where He has set you at. You do just what He tells you to
do, and see where He blesses you.
…..98
Hold yourself clean and clear, to your
calling. Stay with God's Word and don't move for nothing. And stay, abide in your calling.If He
give you a job out there, as a farmer, farm good. God bless you at it,
and pay your tithes and whatever it is, your offerings, to help the ministry go
on. If He made a mechanic out of you, and blessed you in that work, stay
with it and thank Him for it. See? You just abide where God calls you.
NO
MATTER HOW DIFFICULT IT WAS, STAY TRUE TO THAT WORD.
80 And it made him a great man. He ignored the
politics of that day, and the popular opinions, and served God with a true
heart. That's the kind of a president we need. That's the kind of a--a leader
we need over the people of any nation, anywhere. His kingdom was next to
Solomon's. There was nothing... God just blessed him and held back no blessing,
because he served Him.
81
And this was a great help to young Isaiah, because that he seen how
God would bless them that was true to His Word. No matter how difficult it was, stay true to that Word.
And it's an example today, also, to us,
to stay true to the Word. And it had a
great influence upon him.
HE HAD
BEEN INFLUENCED WHEN HE SEEN JESUS RESURRECTED FROM THE DEAD; INFLUENCED FOR
HIS DEATH…
188
Finally, at the end of the road, when they were going to crucify Him,
kill Him, and he run out of the city. And on the road out, as the history tells
us, he was running for his life, getting out of the city, and he meet Jesus
coming back. He said, "Where goest thou?" Simon, or Simon said to
Him, "Where goest Thou, Lord?"
189
He said, "I'm going back in the city to be crucified
again."
190
Simon turned and went back. And when they got him, said, don't...
They put him on a cross. Said, "Don't hang me like that. Put my head down,
and my feet up!"
191
He had been influenced when he seen Jesus resurrected from the dead;
influenced for his death, he was influenced for anything. He went into action. Death couldn't even stop it. The crucifixion couldn't stop
it. He was influenced by Jesus.
WE SEE HOW
GOD SET HIS SERVANTS IN ORDER, AND WHAT HE FIXED HIM WITH; HOW HE COULD, BEING
HUMBLE, REVERENT, AND PUT HISSELF IN ACTION.
222 But when he confessed that he was
wrong, there was a cleansing power. He took a coal of Fire. Did you notice
how God...
223
We see how God set His servants in order, and what He fixed Him with;
how He could, being humble, reverent, and put Hisself in action.
224
Watch, when He cleansed the servant, He never done it by a seminary. He
never done it by a bunch of books. We find here that God cleanse His
servants by Fire. A coal of Fire touched the prophet,
cleaned his lips. God cleans His servants by His Holy Fire. Not by
books, not by education, theology; but He cleaned His servant by Fire.
GOD IS A
GOD OF ORDER, AND HE WILL BRING THE THING RIGHT UP THEN.
E-64 Pentecostal people, let me say this with
love, "That's the reason you're not getting anywhere. See? You've got
gifts. You, Baptists, the same way. The
gifts that's in the church, God give the church, the power, but He never took
it away from the church. I can show you where He give it to the church, you
show me where He took it away. You've
got the power, but you don't know how to use it. You're not reverent enough. That's the reason you all speaking
with tongues, you just use it any way. Ever--every... Some be speaking in
tongues; others doing this, and... just like a Babylon. Don't to that. Put those things in
their places. Put all your gifts in there, you're teachers, you're apostles.
Put everything
in it's place, and then operate in decency and in order. You'll find God is a God of order, and He
will bring the thing right up then.
That's what
made the people afraid of you, because it's the way you've acted with the--what
God give you. See? Reverence those gifts. Just don't make them a little
happen, fly by night. Test them. If they're of God, if they prove to be
God, then they're God. If they are not, get the thing away from you. You don't
want it. Why receive a substitute, when the pentecostal skies are full of the real.
That's what the trouble...

Now the effects of such a vision, and we're closing. Start praying for
the sick, in a few minutes. Now the effects of such a vision. What did the
effects do to this prophet? I wonder about a preacher, I wonder about an
evangelist, or a pastor? Look what a vision of This done, and what he seen,
what had happened to self-styled Uzziah. And then, though a great man that God
had honored, the great thing, they seen it dead. What effects did it have on
the prophet?
218 Here is what it did. It caused him to
confess himself to be a sinner for associating with such. He confessed,
"I'm a man of unclean lips, and I've been dwelling among people with
unclean lips." Making him con-... a prophet, not a preacher. A prophet
confessed that he was a sinful man, because he had been associating with such.

Then what? When he confessed his
sins, then come the cleansing. Oh, you cannot be clean from your sin until you
confessed it's sin, till you recognize it's sin. Then come the cleansing, as
soon as he said, "Woe is me, for my eyes have seen the vindication of a
great God. The Angels, the Burners, the Sacrificers are here, and the
posts is moving at Their Voice, and here They are in this vision, flying back
and forth." He had saw something real. A vision had come down. He said,
"I'm a man of unclean lips, and I dwell among unclean people." Said,
he cried out for mercy and called himself a sinner.
220 Then what happened? One of the Cherubims
went over to the altar, and took the tongs and picked up a live coal, and put
it on His hand. Not carry it in a tong now; picked up the coal, put it on His
hand, and come and laid it upon the prophet's lips, and said, "Thy
iniquity..."
221 Iniquity, what is iniquity? Iniquity is
something that you know it's wrong, and still holding to it. When you know your
creeds are wrong, and you still hold to it, that's iniquity.
WE SEE
HOW GOD SET HIS SERVANTS IN ORDER, AND WHAT HE FIXED HIM WITH; HOW HE COULD,

225
Then as soon as he was confessed and cleansed, then followed the
commission. First he had to confess, then he had to be cleansed, and now it's
the commission. It
was then that the cleansed Isaiah cried... When he heard the Voice of God,
said, "Who will go for Us?"

Look at back in history, when you're reading this, when you go home,
what had happened to Israel. She had got the same (where) place we are. They
had called... All their sacrifices and things had become a tradition to them. There was no sincerity. They didn't honor
the Word of God. That's when God raised up Isaiah, to tell him them
sacrifices stunk in His nose. He didn't want them. They were blasphemy to Him,
then He didn't want no more to do with them. And when... This Isaiah was cleaned and ready to go preach the Gospel then.

And the Voice of God said, "Now there is a need. These things has
got to be told." And one Voice said to the other, the Angels flying, said,
"Who will go for Us?"
228 Then
Isaiah, with a clean heart; cleansed, confessed, cleansed and commissioned, the
vision; said, "Here am I, Lord, send me. Send me. Here am I, send me."
229 God, send Your holy Angels again today.
Find Your Isaiah somewhere, my prayer. I--I'm not... I'm just saying this
'cause I know He's here.
When the
coal of Fire had touched the prophet,
Making him
as clean as clean could be,
When the
Voice of God said, "Who will go for Us?"
Then he
answered, "Master, here am I, send me."
230 He wasn't afraid then with the Word. He was
a prophet; the Word could come to him. He was... All of his unbelief and
traditions was gone. He could stand before that traditional age, and tell them,
"Your sacrifices stinks in the nose of God. And the very God that you
claim to serve, will destroy you." That's what He said. "The God that
you claim you're serving, will destroy you," and He did it.
They said,
"A sign!"
He said,
"I'll give you a super sign; a virgin shall conceive."

Isaiah wrote sixty-six chapters in his Book, and there is sixty-six
Books in the Bible. He starts off with the beginning of creation, and ends up
in the Millennium just like the entire Bible does.
232 That
great prophet of God, who was willing to confess that all their traditions was
wrong; and get down there and get cleansed, and so the Word of God could come
to him. Then he said, "I'm ready to go, Lord. I'm ready. I'll speak
what You say speak. I'll say what You say say." He was ready to go.
233 God, bring the Angels again, this
afternoon, the Holy Ghost and Fire, and cleanse my brothers' hearts,

will see and want to follow, too.
