Prophets of old....

Seems to me that many have rarely understood the love of the prophets of old. Firstly and foremost the were committed to the Lord's will! They prophesied when they were given words to speak and prophesied not when no word from God was forthcoming. Secondly, they spoke the words of God even when it was a threat to their own personal safety! Simultaneously they never spoke a word for gain for the pleasing of itchy ears or the lining of their own purses. Thirdly, they suffered their flesh and their futures by allowing them to be molded as the Lord saw fit to mold each of them! But the greatest asset of the prophets of old was they humbled themselves and eschewed to tough love of God. They understood that the sometimes harshness and exactness of God was that of a Father's love! Their own personal ferocity sometimes displayed, so that others would be spared the wrath and anger of the Lord! They stood in proxy for God, whether in blessing or in judgement. Indeed it seems to me that a great debt is owed each and everyone of them. Major or minor in their personal ministry, they worked in concert with God, being led by His Spirit! Each of us having been indwelt by the Holy Spirit should also model ourselves after their example. Or so it seems to me. Even on a slow news day, a thread of this nature would be enough to springboard off and delve into deep discussion! TR
