Here I am Send me Isaiah 6:8 part five NIV
Then I heard the voice of the LORD saying,"Whom shall I send?
Who will go for us?"
And I said," Her I am. Send me!"
He said,"Go and tell this people:"'Be ever hearing, but never
understanding; be ever seeing, but never perceiving..." Isaiah 6:8-9
Rehab and the two spies Joshua 2:5-11 NIV (part two)
"Go after them quickly. You may catch up with them." (But she had hide
them under the stacks of flax she had laid out on the roof.) So the men
set out in pursuit of the spies on the road that leads to the fords of Jordan,
as soon as the pursuers had gone out, the gate was shut.
Before the spies lay down for the night, she went up to the roof and said to
them," I know the LORD has given this land to you and that a great fear of
you has fallen on us, so that all that live in the country are melting in fear
because of you. We have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the
Red Sea for you when you came out of Egypt, and what you did to Sihon
and Og, the two kings of the Amorities east of the Jordan, whom you
completely destroyed. When we heard of it, our hearts melted and every
one's courage failed because of you, for the LORD, your God is God in
heaven above and on the earth below."
Moses and the burning bush Exodus 3:9-13 (part two) NIV
And now the cry of the Israelists has reached me and I have seen the
way that the Egyptians are oppressing them. So now I am sending you
to Pharaoh to bring my people the Israelists out of Egypt. But Moses
said to God,"Who am I, to that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the
Israelists out of Egypt?"
And God said,"I will be with you. And this will be the sign to you that
it is I who has sent you: When you have brought the people out of
Egypt, you will worship God on this mountain."
Moses said to God,"Suppose I go to the Israelists and say to them,'The
God of your fathers--the God of Abraham, the God of Issac and the God
of Jacob--has sent me to you,' and they ask me,'What is his name?' Then
what shall I tell them?"
Samuel Anoints David 1 Samuel 16:1-2 (part one) NIV
The LORD said to Samuel,"How long will you mourn for Saul, since I have
rejected him as king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil and be on your way;
I am sending you to Jessie of Bethlehem. I have chosen one of his sons to
become king."
But Samuel said,"How can I go Saul will hear about it and kill me." The LORD
said,"Take a heifer with you and say, I have come to sacrifice to the LORD.'
