As we worshipped, I kept hearing the line of one of our songs, “We are available to You”, repeating in my head, almost like it was on a loop. I saw us lifting our hands, proclaiming it with our mouths as though sealing a covenant with the Lord, declaring:
“We are available to You.”
Then I saw different groups of people.
The Sincere:
The first were those who truly said it and meant it. You could recognize them because they stepped forward into the place of service and faithfully did all that was expected of them.
They not only carried out their own assignments but also picked up the ones others had left undone. They did not say, “Since it’s not my job, I won’t do it.”
Instead, they ensured that everything was completed at the right time.
Their service was marked by sincerity and sacrifice, as though they had taken to heart the words:
“Whatever you do, do it with all your heart, as working for the Lord and not for human masters” (Colossians 3:23).
The Pretenders:
I saw another group. They also lifted their hands, but their hearts were not sincere.
They did it only because others were raising theirs. It was more about appearance — not wanting to look like they didn’t care or didn’t love God enough.
Their gesture was outward, but their hearts were far away, just as Scripture says:
“These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me” (Matthew 15:8).
Because their hearts were not pure from the beginning, they could not remain faithful to the end.
They grew weary and eventually became inconsistent. Even in the tasks that were theirs, they hesitated and complicated matters instead of letting things flow smoothly.
The Fearful yet Willing:
Then I saw a third group — those who did not raise their hands at all.
They were afraid, knowing within themselves that they might not be able to keep up. They leaned too much on their own strength and ability to run.
In that moment, this scripture came to mind:
“The race is not to the swift nor the battle to the strong” (Ecclesiastes 9:11).
God looked at their hearts and saw their genuine desire.
Though they were fearful, He saw that deep down, they longed to serve.
And in His mercy, He stepped in, configuring their lives in such a way that they had no choice but to serve.
He gave them strength beyond themselves, keeping them in positions where His grace upheld them, and through that, they found themselves able to run and remain faithful.
This showed a picture of the three kinds of responses to God’s call for availability:
1. The sincere – faithful in heart and action.
2. The pretenders – outward show without depth.
3. The fearful-yet-willing – weak in themselves but strengthened by God.
