Main Text: Isaiah 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.
Matthew 26:42 – He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.
We must come to the point where we live a life of complete submission to God. The understanding that we are longer our own but God’s, helps us to surrender totally to him. Our walk with God actually begins the moment we can say to God, not my will, but let your will be done. You’d recognize that your life is no more your own .
You’ve accepted the position of a steward and you’ve made a commitment to remain steadfast even in the face of danger, hunger, difficulty or any other challenge one may encounter on his way. When you make commitments to serve God, it pleases Him He desires that he come to him on our own volition. But when you work outside of his will, you endanger your life and miss out on his blessings and encounter sorrow and pain for yourself.
God requires your availability and willingness in order to use you for his purpose. When you offer yourself as a vessel unto Him, he works through you to fulfill his purpose. Send me, I will go should be the earnest prayer of every child of God. The Bible tells us that the harvest is ready but the labourers are few. God requires faithful servants who are willing to go into the world and win souls into His kingdom.
He needs people who are willing to take the world by storm and become the next change catalyst because the earth and everything in it belongs to God and by being His heir; we are seated with him in heavenly places to rule over the affairs of this world.
BE READY, BE ALERT AND BE WILLING.
Prayer: Father, may your grace abound unto me to respond quickly to your instructions.
