Whom Shall I Send?
Contributed by Carl Willis on Sep 22, 2006 (message contributor)
Summary: This message was shared along with my testimony of my recent trip to India to conduct a series of crusades and chuch leader trainings. It is a challenge to the congregation to be available to God’s purposes in their lives.
Whom Shall I Send?
Isaiah 6:8 (KJV)
Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.
A Search for the Willing
God is looking for those who will go
Where He sends
According to His will
That His word shall be proclaimed
Romans 10:14-15 (NLT)
But how can they call on him to save them unless they believe in him? And how can they believe in him if they have never heard about him? And how can they hear about him unless someone tells them? [15] And how will anyone go and tell them without being sent? That is what the Scriptures mean when they say, "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"
Equipped to Go
God has already supplied what you will need
His power and strength
Acts 1:8
Acts 1:8 (NLT)
But when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, you will receive power and will tell people about me everywhere—in Jerusalem, throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."
Equipped to Go
God has already supplied what you will need
His power and strength
Acts 1:8
Your life is an extension of Jesus
His hands
His feet
His mouth
Being Used Without Your Knowledge
God uses you in ways you are not aware of
Your presence is a blessing
Your words bring freedom
Your sacrifice inspires
Acts 5:15-16 (NLT)
As a result of the apostles’ work, sick people were brought out into the streets on beds and mats so that Peter’s shadow might fall across some of them as he went by. [16] Crowds came in from the villages around Jerusalem, bringing their sick and those possessed by evil spirits, and they were all healed.
Whom Shall I Send?
Will you say “Here Am I, Send Me?”
