Not Me

Isaiah 47:10 For thou hast trusted in thy wickedness: thou hast said, None seeth me. Thy wisdom and thy knowledge, it hath perverted thee; and thou hast said in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me.

If I were to ask you to read all of Isiah 47 I would peradventure that most if not all who read this word of prophesy would answer, “Not me, he is not talking about me.”

Okay, I get it. You cannot or will not personalize this prophetic word. Now read it as if it were to apply to your home nation, your neighborhood, or your present circumstances. Can you see glimpses of truth in those words that may well apply in a bigger arena in which you are nothing more than in attendance?

Does this concern you? Do you feel helplessly caught up in something to which you have no control? This sense you might feel about being caught up in something bigger than yourself does not mean you are helpless.

You can pray.

Sometimes these particular prophetic messages are sent and meant to stir you to pray. In the secular world these concerns usually end up in rebellion, revolution, vandalism, death and destruction. Because you are a kingdom dweller, since you serve the One True God, King of Kings, Lord of Lords, then your petition needs to be to Him who does change the world.

If you want to share and ask others to join you in prayer fine but do not leave it up to others. You see it for a reason, if you see it, you need to pray. It is God’s way of calling you into service. You are not the least if He has called you.

Pray.
