Everybody likes the idea of being used by God. Everybody likes the idea of impact, influence, effectiveness, power, and purpose. Very few people like the process that produces those things.
Isaiah spoke about a servant whose mouth was made like a sharp sword. He was fashioned into a polished shaft. Then God hid him in His quiver (Isaiah 49:2).
Notice the order. The arrow was not first released. It was first made. The sword was not first used. It was first shaped.
God does not merely find weapons lying around and decide to use them. He forms them.
That is why so many people frustrate themselves. They want deployment without development. They want public usefulness without private formation.
The summary of many people’s prayer lives is, “Lord, use me.”
But when God begins to shape them through circumstances, corrections, delays, hidden seasons, discipline, and preparation, they begin to quarrel with the process.
An arrow goes far after it has been made.
Many people admire what God is doing through certain servants of God but do not understand the years of shaping that came before the release.
The unwillingness to be made is one of the greatest disqualifiers in the kingdom.
God may indeed use you greatly, but first He must make you. And the making often happens in places nobody sees.
