The LORD Looked for Intercessors and Found None!
Where are those who even care to cry out and intercede for the people who are in such terrible condition?
“Behold, The LORD’S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: but your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.
For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness.
None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.
They hatch cockatrice’ eggs, and weave the spider’s web: he that eateth of their eggs dieth, and that which is crushed breaketh out into a viper.
Their webs shall not become garments, neither shall they cover themselves with their works: their works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands.
Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction are in their paths.
The way of peace they know not; and there is no judgment in their goings: they have made them crooked paths: whosoever goeth therein shall not know peace.
Therefore is judgment far from us, neither doth justice overtake us: we wait for light, but behold obscurity; for brightness, but we walk in darkness.
We grope for the wall like the blind, and we grope as if we had no eyes: we stumble at noonday as in the night; we are in desolate places as dead men.
We roar all like bears, and mourn sore like doves: we look for judgment, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far off from us.
For our transgressions are multiplied before thee, and our sins testify against us: for our transgressions are with us; and as for our iniquities, we know them; in transgressing and lying against The LORD, and departing away from our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.
And judgment is turned away backward, and justice standeth afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter.
Yea, truth faileth; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey: and The LORD saw it, and it displeased him that there was no judgment.
And he saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore his arm brought salvation unto him; and his righteousness, it sustained him.” Isaiah 59:1-16.
All should note by reading “the problem stated” in simple words, they were in a terrible mess. Men had departed away from God.
They were so far away they did not even know what they were doing.. they were as blind men walking stumbling falling and unable to find their way…
“We grope for the wall like the blind, and we grope as if we had no eyes: we stumble at noonday as in the night; we are in desolate places as dead men.” Isaiah 59:10.
In this condition, The LORD looked for even one who would stand and intercede for them. He wanted to find a person who was deeply concerned and moved to pray and intercede for this terrible condition….
He found none!
Today, The LORD is talking to me about being one who will intercede. One who cares for His People who are in trouble, lost and away from The LORD — like a sheep lost from his master.
The LORD is saying I must be one who cares and will intercede for His People.
Note : Only The LORD can meet the needs of all His People, but, in is clear that God looks for a man who will intercede.
He wants one to stand up and be concerned, and to cry out for His People and lead them into the light, to see their sins and to find forgiveness and to find peace and happiness in The LORD. To find the will of god for the many.
One who is an Intercessor.
