Just GO!

Then 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

The Lord calls every single human being with breath in his/her lungs to come to Jesus. Once we accept Jesus as Savior and Lord of our life, He then asks, “Whom shall I send? Who will go?” Every one of us needs to be able to say, “Here I am Lord, send me!” You know the ultimate goal as a Christian is not to gain wealth, prestige, and earthly valuables. Those things perish beloved ones. But the gift of Jesus Christ is eternal and the objective to our mission in life---Get souls saved that are dying and going to hell! Oh my I shudder at that thought of people dying and spending eternity in hell. Christ says we are to preach the Gospel-Christ’s death, burial, and miraculous resurrection to ALL people and nations.

Sure it is scary approaching people asking if they are saved by the blood of Jesus Christ, but how much more tragic for the unsaved to die and go to hell. You see God in  Isaiah 7:1 gives the depiction of Jerusalem's (God’s holy city) enemies trying to attack her, but God had His hand of protection wrapped around is beloved city. 

Isaiah 7:1 “When Ahaz son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, was king of Judah, King Rezin of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel marched up to fight against Jerusalem, but they could not overpower it.”

The point is, when God Almighty sends us to do His work/will we will not be overpowered. That does not mean we will not experience trials and tribulations, but God reminds us in Isaiah 7:4 “Be careful, keep calm and don't be afraid. Do not lose heart.” He continues to say in verse 9, “If you do not stand firm in your faith, you will not stand at all."

He will always provide, but it is absolutely imperative for us to have faith in His ability because He precious ones is God, the Lord Almighty.  We go through tough times people and Christians it is tough being a Christian in our times; where God is mocked, but listen to this truth from Paul who said it best in 2 Corinthians 4:7-9

“But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.”

So don’t lose heart fellow Christians. Don’t miss out on the treasures and blessing God has in store for you when you obey Him and go when He says, “Go”.

I can’t say it any better so let me end with my brother Paul’s words (inspired by God) in 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

“Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.”
