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
How do we get to the point of saying, "send me"? - go through the process that Isaiah did.
1. Be aware of our complacency. Isa 6:1
2. Spend some time with God. Isa 6:2-4 Be in awe of God's Holiness.
3. Be honest about our sinfulness. Isa 6:5
4. A fresh understanding of God's grace. Isa 6:7 Every sin is forgiven through God's grace. We are made clean through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.
The only logical response to all of this is, "Here am I, send me!"
This decision to be sent by God is not a one time decision, it is a decision we need to make daily. Gal 5:16-17, 24; Lk 9:23; Gal 2:20
This is not easy. Isa 6:9-13.
This is not a search for information, but an amazing invitation to you and I from God. Acts 17:25
2 reasons we don't answer the call:
1. Selfishness and self centeredness.
2. Fear.
