Here
I Am.
Send Me. 

I have filthy lips, and I live among a people with filthy lips. This was Isaiah’s response to seeing the King, the LORD of Heaven’s Armies. We have a problem. You and I have a problem. It is a sin problem. And you and I need to be forgiven. Have you ever asked God to forgive your sins?

Scripture

Isaiah 6

⁵ Then I said, “It’s all over! I am doomed, for I am a sinful man. I have filthy lips, and I live among a people with filthy lips. Yet I have seen the King, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies.”

⁶ Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a burning coal he had taken from the altar with a pair of tongs. ⁷ He touched my lips with it and said, “See, this coal has touched your lips. Now your guilt is removed, and your sins are forgiven.”

⁸ Then I heard the Lord asking, “Whom should I send as a messenger to this people? Who will go for us?”

I said, “Here I am. Send me.”

Observation

I have filthy lips, and I live among a people with filthy lips. This was Isaiah’s response to seeing the King, the LORD of Heaven’s Armies. We have a problem.

You and I have a problem. It is a sin problem.

And you and I need to be forgiven. Have you ever asked God to forgive your sins? Have you asked Him to be your Lord and your Savior? If the answer to those 2 questions is “no” then why don’t you ask Him right now?

Isaiah saw the Lord, Isaiah realized what a sinful person he was, and then Isaiah was cleansed of his sin. Once Isaiah was forgiven he was ready to volunteer to be used by God.

Are you ready if the Lord speaks to you? Are you ready to go to China, India, or Cuba? Are you ready to go to your neighbor, your coworker, or a family member?

Are you willing to say, “Here I am? Send me.”

Application

I am willing to go wherever God wants to send me. How about you?

Prayer

Heavenly Father, here I am. Send me! I pray for those who are reading this blog who have yet surrendered his or her life to You. Give them the courage and the boldness to say “yes” to You. Open up their hearts today to Your message of salvation!
