Isaiah 6:8 NKJV

Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: “Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.”

Isaiah 6:8 NKJV

Isaiah the prophet is one of the greatest prophets of the Old Testament. He saw and prophesied our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ.

Isaiah did not start great and he had issues just like everyone else. Isaiah presented himself as a man with unclean lips and who lived amongst people with unclean lips.

God caused Isaiah to see and receive this vision while being in the state of his old identity. He was greeted but he was not able to be used by God until his identity changed.

The angel took a live coal and touched Isaiah's mouth and said “Behold, this has touched your lips; Your iniquity is taken away, and your sin purged.”

Isaiah was pronounced clean, iniquity taken away and his sins purged. This is the new identity that Isaiah started to function in his prophetic ministry.

Isaiah did not qualify to be a messenger of God but God qualified him by what the angel had done.

If a coal from God's realm can transform Isaiah from unworthiness to be one among the great prophets, HOW MUCH MORE QUALIFIED we are who have been CLEANSED BY THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST, SON OF THE LIVING GOD.

Jesus has qualified us in Him through His death and resurrection. He had presented us holy and blameless before our Father in heaven.

This is the confidence we need to have and function with boldness to declare the works of God in this world.

Therefore, we are the ones who have been called to go and display God's glory, power, and love so that many can come into the saving knowledge of Christ.

Let us be bold in what Christ has done for us and let us go with boldness to declare His kingdom.

Live in the blessings,

Ps Ambrose
