Cry Deliverance: Isaiah 58:1

Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.

                      

Today's message is a continuation of my passionate plea for a healing of this nation. Just as

our scripture verse states, we must cry out to God in a loud voice calling out sin and all wickedness so that the people will see and know their transgressions. Regardless of the sin, it must be called out for what it is. God punishes sin, and all will be judged for his/her sins because He is the righteous judge.

Prayer changes things, and our faith unlocks the door so that God's wonder-working power is released in answer to our prayers. James 5:16b states emphatically that the prayers of the righteous availeth much. What this means is that we, as believers, pray and having faith in our prayer, then God moves. The situation in American is no different than it was in the Bible days and during the time of the writing of our scripture text.

Just as Isaiah was commanded to deliver warning to the people of his day, believers today are commanded to call out sin, and we must do so with urgency.
