This new proclamation centered in Isaiah 18 is deemed God's most urgent priority of all time. So, herein, for the sake of this call, you, the reader and I are invited to shoulder-to-shoulder venture in an effort to accomplish this service to our God. Perhaps, you might make the same query with regards to this invitation!
Why me, Lord?
First of all, none can boast of doing any kind of task for God, "because apart from Me you can do nothing" John 15:5 says the Lord, "and, what have you, which you did not receive?" 1Cor.4:7. "Blessing, honor, glory and power be unto Him; we are just sharing what we have received.
In my 35 years of in-depth searching the Word of God, I have pondered the reason, the will and the purpose of what's in the heart of our Almighty Creator for the things He endowed in us.
God's Plan for humanity is so solidly compacted under His startling wisdom and law; it is going on exactly as designed before the foundation of the world. This whole endeavor is purposed for the edification of God's elect, as He says, "Give ear, O My people, who are My law, stretch out your ears to the sayings of My mouth. I shall open My mouth in parables; I will utter dark sayings from aforetime: Psalm 78:1,2,; Matt. 13:35, Isa. 48:3
God's saying are hidden [dark, puzzling, as enigma, a trick, things which have been kept secret] of old [from aforetime, ancient before the foundation of the world]. What makes them hard to know is that they are written in parable settings purposely.
First, there were symbols; and then, the world! even more, our livelihood in this world carries a parabolic meaning for the heavenly eternal living! Therefore, the only way to gain perception in God's Plan is to seek wisdom, how to interpret the dark sayings from God's symbolism to our natural understanding.
It will be a special blessing to us, who have chosen to be "Jesus' disciples," He said, 'Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of God: but to others [it is given] in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand;" Luke 8:10.
