SPEAK UP

JEREMIAH 1:7 (CEV)
“Don't say you're too young,” the LORD answered. “If I tell you to go and speak to someone, then go! And when I tell you what to say, don't leave out a word!

ACTS 18:9-10 (CEV)
One night, Paul had a vision, and in it the Lord said, “Don't be afraid to keep on preaching. Don't stop! I am with you, and you won't be harmed. Many people in this city belong to me.”

SUMMARY SENTENCE
Don't allow perceived limitations to get in the way of speaking up as instructed by the Lord.

PRAYER
Lord, you have given me a mouth to speak and hands to write. You have given me a brain to formulate communication. Forgive me for being slow to respond to the prompting of your Holy Spirit. As you make it clear to whom you'd like me to go, transform my fears into humble confidence. I'm eager to be your messenger. Amen.

THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name, your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
