An encounter with God in His holiness produced the fear and confession that brought Isaiah redemption and then made him a messenger of that redemption to others. Facing the holiness of God seems unsafe and people suppress coming before this fearful holy God. But they do it to their own hurt. The people refuse to turn to this holy God. They will not confront their own sin. So they do not find Him as their redeemer. Instead God lets them be worn down under the consequences of their own selfish, sinful pride and rebellion…worn down to the roots, cut down to the stump. But there God says a holy seed will be in the stump. God, even in hardships, was pursuing bringing redemption to the people. It is painful to watch the suffering of those who fight against God's encroachment on their lives. They suffer… If they are His they suffer… until finally they are broken and ready to cry out their confession to Him.
