“...Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.” Psalm 81:10
This verse definitely has spoken to me this week. Ive literally read and reread it over and over. I guess I find it quite easy to exaggerate and to make things bigger than they originally are. This week I’ve been tested with truthfulness... and I failed miserably. But afterwards I happened to come across this verse and I thought about how often I’m soo quick to talk instead of letting God speak through me. Sometimes I am tempted to lie and I don’t let God speak through me. Many different circumstances I can think of where I didn’t open my mouth for God to fill with his words.
But do you realise that verse is another promise for us to claim?? He promises he will fill us if we will open our mouths to him. Sometimes people ask me something about my faith and I keep my mouth closed. God was waiting there the whole time to fill my empty mouth, to give me the words to speak, but I didn’t open my mouth to be filled. Instead I stubbornly closed it.
Oh friend, don’t be foolish like I have been. Whatever the circumstance, open your mouth and let God fill you. Don’t be afraid of truth. Always put the truth first, for Jesus is the Truth.
