Send Me
Send Me
Here I am. Send me. Isaiah 6:8
Virtually every encounter with the manifest presence of God recorded in the Bible results in reaching the nations. No sooner did Isaiah see the Lord high and lifted up, than he is commissioned into his prophetic ministry.
It is all too easy to assume that when we encounter the manifest presence of Christ, that it is all about us. While we certainly benefit from every encounter, we must guard against becoming self absorbed encounter junkies. It is all about Christ; that is true. But it is not all about us.
When Isaiah encountered the holiness of God, he was led first in deep repentance, “Woe is me, I am a man of unclean lips.” Then he was commissioned into a life of service, “Here I am. Send me.”
Everyone called of God in the Bible received their calling from an encounter with the manifest presence of God. It is in such an encounter that we discover who we are and what we’re here for.
While an encounter with God is not about us, such an encounter does reveal who we really are and what we’re here for.
Father God, today I cry, ‘Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come.’ I worship You in the splendor of Your holiness. Manifest Your presence to me and through me and activate my calling, for Jesus Christ’s sake.
Please PRAY!
We are asking God for the remaining world countries and U.S.A. states to receive the training of the College of Prayer. Pray with us today for Mauritius and Nevada.
