Isaiah 6:1
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.
The prophet Isaiah saw the vision of the Lord the year that King Uzziah died. For background, the king has faithful to the Lord for the most part of his reign. He enjoyed great blessings in terms of the power and strength of his kingdom, which flows on to be blessings for the whole nation. Later on, he was struck by Leprosy due to his pride which cause him to burn incense in the Temple - that role is supposed to be for priests only. The end of his reign marks an important time and that time is also the calling of the prophet Isaiah. God knows when important chapters in history is beginning and ending. He knows the future just as well as in the past. Isaiah would have known the Lord already, and he was spiritually ready when the Lord called him.
