The prophet is G-d's precious vessel!
The prophet is a precious vessel of G-d. His words always bring hope and enrichment to the individual, congregation and community. Through his connection with the L-rd, the prophet offers the individual a revelation and future destination in a short-time moment. The experience for the listener is an opportunity to let go of their past, their pain, superficiality and their cynicism, and just to accept the grace and love of G-d! The listener is made aware that life-future- time enrichment is a Divine gift offered to them in an short (to be accepted) opportunity!
Samuel established as a prophet of the L-rd!
And all Israel
from Dan even to Beer-sheba knew that
Samuel
was established to be
a prophet
of the L-rd. (1 Samuel 3:20)
Since thou were precious in my sight, thou hast been honorable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life. (Isaiah 43:4) Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of My hands; thy walls are continually before Me. (Isaiah 49:16) This is a figurative way of saying that G-d would never forget His people and that they would be in everlasting remembrance before Him! It was the Prophet Isaiah who brought this message, inspired by G-d and was speaking as G-d's representative Prophet, giving comfort, and assurance to a burdened soul of the Israelites! The prophet was used as a precious vessel from G-d! Precious for G-d and precious for the people who received his message! He that had an ear let him hear what G-d is still saying through His prophets today!
Behold,
I have graven thee upon the palms of My hands; thy walls
are continually before Me.
