The Work of the Lord

Isaiah 6:8-12

The Lord had a job for someone to do. He asked, "Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?" He needed a messenger and He is asking who will do this job? The Lord has chosen to use men and women in His service. There is a lot of work to do and we need a lot a workers to do the job. Isaiah responded to the Lord’s call by saying, "Here am I; send me." He wanted to be used of God. He was willing to work for the Lord. May I say this morning that this is the greatest need in the work of the Lord today. We need people who are willing to get involved in serving God and doing His work! However, just as with any job there are some requirements to do the work of the Lord. There are some demands that must be met. I want to spend some time this morning reminding you of what the work of the Lord demands.

I. The Work of the Lord Demands a Vision.

II. The Work of the Lord Demands a Vessel.

III. The Work of the Lord Demands Spiritual Vitality.

IV. The Work of the Lord Demands Volunteers.

The work of the Lord demands a vision, a vessel, a life of vitality, and a willing volunteer. Will he find that in us? Will we be like Isaiah of old and say to Him, "Here am I Lord".

Are you born again? Have you been washed in the precious blood of the Lamb of God? Trust Him today, and commit yourself to the work of the Lord.

Christian, are we involved in the work of the Lord? Are we doing what God would have us do? Why not?
