It is here that the true king of Israel calls his servant to deliver a message to people who don’t want to hear it. Do you like being a messenger? Were you “that kid” in middle school that shuttled notes between your best friend and the person they had a crush on because your friend was a “chicken”? Imagine for a minute what Isaiah was asked to do. Go tell your people—your family— that they are a bunch of rebellious losers who are about to experience the beat down of the century, but you need to know something else. This horrifying message you are communicating, which should motivate change, will not only be rejected, but no matter how clear, obvious, and rational the message is, it will have the opposite effect. Do you feel the weight of this task? The burden of this message is unfathomable, and the obedience to deliver it astonishing.
