                   The Words Of My Mouth


I want to speak to My children about the words of My mouth. As you know, 
I have guided many of My servants in the Bible to record My words and 
the deeds of My nation Israel throughout the ages up to Revelation. That 
recorded word is living and is like a two edged sword. When you speak 
forth My word, you are speaking My authority to your situation. My word is 
sure and shall not return void. My word has the creative power to create 
the heavens, the earth, the seas and all that is in them. My word will 
never pass away.

Like Ezekiel I would like My children to eat My words. In other words, 
reading and taking in My word and meditating upon it day and night. In My 
word is recorded the wishes of My heart; how I would like you to live, My 
love and mercy for you, and all these are backed up with stories of My 
people Israel and what they went through. Know that My word indeed is sure. 
Did I not promise Abraham that he would be the father of many nations? Did 
I not bring My children out of Egypt by the power of My hand?  

My people put your trust in Me, for when you do you are letting go of the 
steering wheel and letting Me drive you into your purpose and destiny even 
though it does not make sense to you. My word is not as the word of men. 
Men may make easy promises and fail to abide by them, but if I did not do 
what I said I would do, would that not make Me a liar? Let God be true 
and every man a liar. When I speak My word, there is a time limit as to 
the promise being fulfilled. Sometimes it happens instantly, but sometimes 
it takes a while, but when I have spoken, indeed it shall not return void.

What is that word that I have spoken to you today? Be still and know that 
I am God, and hear My still small voice, encouraging you and assuring you 
of My protection and the initiation of My will for you as you trust in Me. 
Beloved it shall be done no other way. Today I set before you life and 
death, blessing and curse. Choose life, for I am your Life. I am the 
beginning and the end, and I know the beginning from the end. It is time 
to drop your plans and pre-conceived agendas and be ready and available to 
Me.

I have put in you many gifts which I desire you to stir up, that they may 
be used to draw in the multitudes. It is by My word that their eyes will 
be opened. Speak forth My word boldly and do not hold back, for it shall 
be a fire in you ready to be released. Yes, speak forth and declare the 
goodness and the mercies of your God. If you are willing, I will make you 
My mouthpiece to the nations, to draw in those who are hurting, the poor, 
the lonely and the outcasts, yes, even the well known figures in human 
society for My grace is given without measure. 

Let the words of My mouth dwell richly in your heart, and let it come 
from within you a wellspring of life.

My word is a lamp unto your feet and a light to your path.
