Share What is in Your Heart
Mayflower

I read a wise thought from @complete yesterday that really encouraged me. She said, "if God has given us assurance in any form be it in thought or word, we should not shrink from telling others, but be prepared, if it be His will, to make it known." She was referencing this after what God told Moses In Exodus 4:10-12- 'And Moses said unto the LORD, O my Lord, I am not eloquent, neither heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant: but I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue. And the LORD said unto him, Who hath made man's mouth? or who maketh the dumb, or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? have not I the LORD?' Now therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth, and teach thee what thou shalt say.'

Here of course, Moses was a chosen prophet of God, but this applies to all Christians. We are chosen for a purpose. God made us and loves us. He gave us Holy Spirit to teach us and comfort us just like with Moses. He has promised never to leave or forsake us. Many times it is easy to compare ourselves to other Christians. I have often waited for someone "older and wiser" to share their insights into scripture or offer counsel to another person. And when I do speak up sometimes, I feel I look for the validation of another person to have confidence that what I am saying is good and right. Brothers and sister, God has laid this on my heart. "You do not need his or her validation. You need My validation."

We need to encourage ourselves and others with Jesus' Words. God gives us testimonies, spiritual gifts, and spiritual insights that we need to not hide under a bushel. After being hidden so long, the light starts to fade and go out. When we share our flame for God, it feeds the flame. We learn when we share with others. We are vulnerable, but there is good cause. We do not need any other validation of what to speak or do, but we do need Holy Spirit's validation. The little tongue is talked about a lot in God's Word. We should always speak and post prayerfully and carefully, and we should always speak with God and others in mind rather then ourselves. But...Let us not shrink back from telling others about Jesus Christ and what He puts on our hearts. Our words and actions can make a difference for others and for God's kingdom no matter how big or small. God bless ya'll!
 
And most of the time when we speak concerning the things of GOD 'opposition" is coming. That is why we have to be sound in The TRUTH and when we speak the Word of GOD. And The Word of GOD concern The TRUTH we speak is written upon "the TABLES of our SOUL" and in that background is where we are standing on that ROCK. It is not the {heart} we speak from But The "SOUL" for the soul is eternal and there is where we get wounded. But He restores "my SOUL" and there is where HE pours "The HEALING OIL" The "BALM of GILEAD" "he Anointed my Head with Oil":pensive:

Moses had it hard and receive opposition from the people and he complain to God about it.
The Prophets of GOD complain to GOD how the people responded to them in Harshness all the time.
Ezekiel, Jeremiah, Elijah, Amos Habakkuk, Hosea, Obadiah, Micah, Nahum, Malachi when you speak you must be prepare to pay the cost. And when speaking do it in "BOLDNESS" and do it exactly how He said do it! .....And you will, unless your message pleases "SATAN". "proclaim to us smooth things " the things that sweet to the Tingling of the ears.

Either your message is trying to please GOD or you are trying to be approve of man, Seeking the honor that comes form man or that honor that comes from GOD! you cannot please both. "For it is impossible to please both" you say, what he wants you to say, and say no more. no matter how you feel.


"Study you show yourself approve of GOD"
Berean Study Bible
Make every effort to present yourself approved to God, an unashamed workman who accurately handles the word of truth.

You are trying to please GOD, And if you are doing and saying what he says, man will hate you and you will cry for the tears will fall. And the wounds will come. AND once you put your hands to the plough you cannot turn back. But your reward will come in the last day. For when you stand at "The BEMA SEAT".
Be approve of GOD and Not of Man.

I been there. you want GOD on your side and not man!

Now count the cost! "The Cost of DISCIPLESHIP" is great book by "Dietrich Bonhoeffer" a great description of discipleship. To take up your cross and walk as HE [Christ] walked..

And Jesus said these words, and these must be your words as well or you will be proven false. You must stand on The ROCK.
Berean Study Bible
"I have not spoken on My own, but the Father who sent Me has commanded Me what to say and how to say it." [and if that register in your Soul]

Your sleep will be sweet.
:pensive:

Sweet dreams my Sister in Christ. It is the SOUL and not The HEART! The Soul is Eternal the HEART is The FLESH and it will be destroyed. Reach into your SOUL for the SOUL belongs to "GOD"

Note: your Heart will deceive you, but your "soul" it will not, for it has been "redeem' and wash in "The Blood". and it is Patience and it knows how to wait on GOD.

I will tell my soul, my overthinking brain, to bless the Lord.
