Prophets were not people-pleasers. They spoke for God at all costs. "This is a rebellious people, lying children," declared the Lord through Isaiah (30:9) - definitely not a way to make friends and influence people. But popularity was not the priority for these four men - Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel. They called the people to repentance, to turn back to the Lord. Sadly, God's message was ultimately rejected, resulting in the collapse of Israel and Judah. But in the midst of those dark days, these major prophets stood up and communicated divine truths about a coming Savior and His everlasting Kingdom of love, joy, and peace!
