The Call Of God

When God stirs your nest, that’s His call for you to become involved with what He is about to do. When that call comes, people respond in different ways. 

Some, like Isaiah, respond eagerly. 

Isaiah 6:8 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.

Jonah tried to run from the call Jonah 1:1-17.  

Moses sees the vision, but tries to take matters in his own hands. When that fails he is brought to the place where he has to wait on God. At the age of 80, he reluctantly surrenders to the call at the burning bush, Ex. 3:4,5.

God knows how to get your attention. When He stirs up your nest and places a burden on your heart, don’t hesitate. Go with Him to whatever He calls you to do. Pray. Pray. Pray. 

God has a great plan, and nothing is greater than being allowed to be a part of that plan. Seek His will. 

Is God calling you?
