1 Chronicles 10:1-11:47; Ezekiel 12:1-28; John 4:1-30
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. Isaiah 6:8
“Who will go for us?” The “us” suggests the three Persons in the Godhead involved in the process of “sending.” The Father sent the Son because He loved us (1 John 4:9-10). The Son sent the Spirit to represent Him in His absence (John 16:7). Finally the Spirit empowered the witnesses sent out by the Son (Acts 1:7-8) to teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Matt. 28:19). Today the Lord still asks, “Whom shall I send?” Will you answer, “Here am I; send me”? —K. C. Ung
Hast Thou, O Lord, a work to do? Here am I, send me!
The field is white, the lab’rers few, here am I, send me! —J. G. Lawson
