I'll Go

I’ll Go!

Those of you who are a part of our church family know that our team heads out this afternoon to DC to head to Zimbabwe tomorrow.

· Last week, we looked at the need to go.

· We saw the statistics that told us that over half the world has little to no chance of hearing about Jesus.

We saw the statistics that told us that over half the world has little to no chance of hearing about Jesus.

These four folks who are going with us are going to have the privilege of taking the gospel into a village where a church is growing, sharing the gospel with more people, and helping the believers there to grow in their walk with Christ.

· We saw that we have a responsibility to pray, to send, to go because they are dying without hearing about how Jesus died for them.

· So what do we do with that?

These trips are hard, though. They are expensive, they take us away from our jobs and families, and they aren’t always comfortable.

· So what do we do with that?

Why do we do it, then? Why would we put ourselves through that?

Think about all the sacrifices our other missionaries make. They leave their families, go halfway around the world, and have to learn a whole new culture and language. They don’t fit there, and then when they come home, they don’t fit here either.

Why would you do that?

Let’s bring it back on this side of the ocean, though. We have said often that we need to live on mission, constantly looking for opportunities to share Christ with others.

That can be intimidating and uncomfortable, so why should we do that?

Why put ourselves out there to follow God like that?

That’s the question we want to answer this morning: Why should we go out on a limb and serve God when it’s hard?

In the Bible, there was a man named Isaiah who was specially called by God to tell people his message.

We are going to look at a pivotal moment in Isaiah’s life, where he had the privilege of seeing God as he really is.

His response to God is one that we should emulate, so turn with me over to .

Turn with me over to .

· This morning, I want you to transition from “Why Go?” to “I’ll Go!”

· We are going to take the theoretical compulsion to go on mission with God and put feet on it.

· The prophet Isaiah was faced with this same task.

· Turn with me over to .

· Jump with me down to verse 8…

My prayer is that, although God isn’t likely to give us this kind of vision this morning, that as you study this passage today, you will join up with Isaiah’s reasoning and say, “I’ll go!”

Revelation 19:16 CSB

And he has a name written on his robe and on his thigh: King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

And on His robe and on His thigh He has a name written, “KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.” (, NASB95)

That’s one of those phrases we hear sometimes but don’t think about.

· That’s what Isaiah was privileged to see: the God who is the king to whom all other kings bow; the Lord who is above every other Lord, and he saw Him seated on the throne of heaven.

If you gathered all the kings and leaders of the world and put them in a room, Jesus would be the king over all the kings.

That’s what Isaiah was privileged to see: the God who is the king to whom all other kings bow; the Lord who is above every other lord, and he saw Him seated on the throne of heaven, which is the place he rightly deserved.

Psalm 2:1–12 CSB

Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth take their stand, and the rulers conspire together against the Lord and his Anointed One: “Let’s tear off their chains and throw their ropes off of us.” The one enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord ridicules them. Then he speaks to them in his anger and terrifies them in his wrath: “I have installed my king on Zion, my holy mountain.” I will declare the Lord’s decree. He said to me, “You are my Son; today I have become your Father. Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance and the ends of the earth your possession. You will break them with an iron scepter; you will shatter them like pottery.” So now, kings, be wise; receive instruction, you judges of the earth. Serve the Lord with reverential awe and rejoice with trembling. Pay homage to the Son or he will be angry and you will perish in your rebellion, for his anger may ignite at any moment. All who take refuge in him are happy.

psalm 2

Why are the nations in an uproar and the peoples devising a vain thing? The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers take counsel together against the Lord and against His Anointed, saying, “Let us tear their fetters apart and cast away their cords from us!” He who sits in the heavens laughs, the Lord scoffs at them…Now therefore, O kings, show discernment; Take warning, O judges of the earth. Worship the Lord with reverence and rejoice with trembling. Do homage to the Son, that He not become angry, and you perish in the way, for His wrath may soon be kindled. How blessed are all who take refuge in Him! (, NASB95)

· He is the King overall, seated on the throne.

He is the King over all, seated on the throne.

Why do we keep going back to Jesus, by the way? How do we know He was the one seated on the throne?

Exodus 34:5–7 CSB

The Lord came down in a cloud, stood with him there, and proclaimed his name, “the Lord.” The Lord passed in front of him and proclaimed: The Lord—the Lord is a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger and abounding in faithful love and truth, maintaining faithful love to a thousand generations, forgiving iniquity, rebellion, and sin. But he will not leave the guilty unpunished, bringing the fathers’ iniquity on the children and grandchildren to the third and fourth generation.

"The Lord descended in the cloud and stood there with him as he called upon the name of the Lord. Then the Lord passed by in front of him and proclaimed, “The Lord, the Lord God, compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in lovingkindness and truth; who keeps lovingkindness for thousands, who forgives iniquity, transgression and sin; yet He will by no means leave the guilty unpunished, visiting the iniquity of fathers on the children and on the grandchildren to the third and fourth generations.”" ()

Ezekiel 1:26–28 CSB

Something like a throne with the appearance of lapis lazuli was above the expanse over their heads. On the throne, high above, was someone who looked like a human. From what seemed to be his waist up, I saw a gleam like amber, with what looked like fire enclosing it all around. From what seemed to be his waist down, I also saw what looked like fire. There was a brilliant light all around him. The appearance of the brilliant light all around was like that of a rainbow in a cloud on a rainy day. This was the appearance of the likeness of the Lord’s glory. When I saw it, I fell facedown and heard a voice speaking.

"Now above the expanse that was over their heads there was something resembling a throne, like lapis lazuli (rich blue) in appearance; and on that which resembled a throne, high up, was a figure with the appearance of a man. Then I noticed from the appearance of His loins and upward something like glowing metal that looked like fire all around within it, and from the appearance of His loins and downward I saw something like fire; and there was a radiance around Him. As the appearance of the rainbow in the clouds on a rainy day, so was the appearance of the surrounding radiance. Such was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. And when I saw it, I fell on my face and heard a voice speaking." ()

Revelation 1:12–15 CSB

Then I turned to see whose voice it was that spoke to me. When I turned I saw seven golden lampstands, and among the lampstands was one like the Son of Man, dressed in a robe and with a golden sash wrapped around his chest. The hair of his head was white as wool—white as snow—and his eyes like a fiery flame. His feet were like fine bronze as it is fired in a furnace, and his voice like the sound of cascading waters.

"Then I turned to see the voice that was speaking with me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands; and in the middle of the lampstands I saw one like a son of man, clothed in a robe reaching to the feet, and girded across His chest with a golden sash. His head and His hair were white like white wool, like snow; and His eyes were like a flame of fire. His feet were like burnished bronze, when it has been made to glow in a furnace, and His voice was like the sound of many waters." ()

Isaiah jumped at the chance to follow God’s invitation.

· Isaiah jumped at the chance to follow God’s invitation.

He saw God for who he was, but he didn’t know some of the things we know.

Isaiah was willing to go out and deliver God’s message, but Jesus was God’s message to the world.

He left heaven, came to earth, and died in our place.

Now that we know that, we have even greater reason than Isaiah to respond to God’s call.

We haven’t seen into the throne room of heaven, but we have seen Jesus’ glory as the one who came and died in our place.

God is inviting you to join him in his work in the lives around you.

Will you?
