THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ORDINARY MEN AND PERSONALITIES

“Hear, you deaf; and look, you blind, that you may see. Who is blind but my servant, Or deaf as my messenger whom I send? Who is blind as he who is perfect, And blind as the Lord’s servant? Seeing many things, but you do not observe;
Opening the ears, but he does not hear. “The Lord is well pleased for His righteousness’ sake; He will exalt the law and make it honorable. But this is a people robbed and plundered; all of them are snared in holes, and they are hidden in prison houses; they are for prey, and no one delivers; for plunder, and no one says, “Restore!” Isa 42:19- 22

In this passage above, it is rather easy to see the difference between ordinary men and personalities.

It is a time in history, when men seem deaf and are incapable of hearing what is going on around them while possessing ears
It is a time in history, when men lose capacity to see while possessing eyes
It is a time in history, when His servants, God’s servants are more easily seen among the blind and the deaf
It is a time in history, when messengers of God, sent messengers, cannot hear instructions
It is a time in history when, those who seem to be perfect lose the capacity to hear and the ability to see
In such a time, history calls for the emergence of personalities.
It is at such times that ordinary men, metamorphose into personalities.
These personalities are later recognized as leaders of their people. Men among men.

MAY GOD RAISE UP MORE MEN LIKE THIS!

“The best antidote I know for worry is work. The best cure for weariness is the challenge of helping someone who is even more tired. One of the great ironies of life is this: He or she who serves almost always benefits more than he or she who is served.” ― Gordon B. Hinckley

This is precisely the scenario that is being painted to us by the ancient Jewish prophet Isaiah. In the emergence of personalities, God is not oblivious nor aloof. It is His personal concern, that men will arise who will qualify for the envious role He has predestined for them from heaven. It is God’s burden and passion to see men standing up for what is right. Proclaiming and establishing God’s righteousness in all the earth.
