The Voice of the Prophet, Day 22

You’re fired. Read Isaiah chapter 22.

While the show The Apprentice with Donald Trump may have made that phrase trendy, it has been a concept for a long time. Here we see God getting to the place that he is choosing to fire someone in authority in Jerusalem. As God is going through and pronouncing judgment over all the various areas, he comes to Jerusalem and begins to pronounce his judgment.

Interestingly, God focuses on a specific person, by name, and explains that person has fallen short on his responsibilities. As a result, God was going to remove him and put another more worthy person in his place.

Are we being responsible stewards of what God has given us? Are we maintaining our responsibilities and staying focused on doing all that God has asked that we do. If we are not following through on our responsibilities, God may choose to relieve us of those responsibilities. It’s important that we are seeking him and following him in every area of our life, so that we can do the work that he has called us to do, in a way that is pleasing to him. Does that describe us today?
