6/24/2013 0 Comments Send MeThen I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?" And I said, "Here am I. Send me!" ~ Isaiah 6:8 This is a wonderful Bible story. The prophet Isaiah finds himself, miraculously, at the throne of God. After seeing the angels worship God he cries out that he is unclean and so are his people. An angel then touches his lips with a hot coal and tells him that his sins are forgiven and atoned for. But the part we know the best is what happens next. God wants to send someone to deliver His message and Isaiah famously responds with "Here am I. Send me!"
"Here am I, send me" can mean different things to different people. For you, it could mean traveling to a far away country, volunteering at church, or taking care of elderly relatives who have no one else. Let's discover where God wants to send us. Let's have a "willing heart." That seemed to be Isaiah's heart. He was struck by God's presence and then blessed by God's forgiveness, so he was like, "I'll do whatever the heck You want me to do!" I'm sure this attitude is most pleasing to God and is a greater demonstration of faith. Isaiah's heart is an example of how we should respond if we hear The Holy Spirit calling us. The Lord calls some here and some there, and our response should always be like Isaiah's, one of eagerness to answer, "Send me".

Meditate On
His Goodness We are told to “be of the same mind toward one another” which means essentially that we must develop and maintain the mind of Christ or God’s thoughts. But if our thoughts are contrary to God’s, then we must exchange our thinking with God’s and for that process, He has given us His inspired, inerrant, and authoritative Word. So what is our need? We are to study the Scripture, but for that to be effective, we also need to develop the art of biblical meditation. Enter into The Sanctuary to meditate on the Word of God.
