Call On His Name

Isaiah 65

1 The Lord says,

“I was ready to respond, but no one asked for help.
I was ready to be found, but no one was looking for me.
I said, ‘Here I am, here I am!’
to a nation that did not call on my name.
2 All day long I opened my arms to a rebellious people.
But they follow their own evil paths
and their own crooked schemes.”

God’s people at the time of Isaiah were the people of Israel. Today, God’s people are the Church. I fear that far too often, we, the Church, do not call on His name, and that we follow our own evil paths & crooked schemes. I must fall on my face daily and deny myself. I must call on the Name of the Lord so that I may stay on the path He desires for me always.
