Holy Spirit Prophets Day 64
The Holy Spirit warned the people of sin in their midst through the Prophets. "Many years you have borne with them, and warned them by thy spirit through the prophets, yet they would not give ear."1 The Holy Spirit moved the prophets to warn the people against their sinfulness and yet they would not hear them. They did not even believe that the prophets were inspired by God the Holy Spirit. "No prophecy ever came by the impulse of man, but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God."2 The inspiration of God was necessary for any prophecy to be genuine.
As one of the prophets, Isaiah saw relief for the afflicted in the coming Messiah. Jesus adopted these words for himself when he read them publically in the Temple. "The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to bring good tidings to the afflicted."3 He then said, "Today this scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing."4
