Arise, Go

This morning in church, I notice the verb God uses when he speaks to reluctant prophets.  He says:  arise. 

I can’t stop thinking about this verb.  Arise!  Arise and go!

It’s such an interesting command.  I learn that arise literally means to come into being, to emerge, to move upward.  

Arise!  Come into the calling I have for you!  Emerge out of whatever darkness you’re in!   

Move. 

He takes us by the hand and invites us to arise and go.
