THE RIGHT WORDS AT THE RIGHT TIME




















THE RIGHT WORDS
AT THE RIGHT TIME


So many times
WHEN I have sat down to write


Or when I have been CALLED ON
To give words of encouragement
To someone


I had no idea
What I was going to say


But God-and Jesus-through THEIR SPIRIT
Has placed the RIGHT WORDS
On me
At the right time


To be of ENCOURAGEMENT
To others


“For in truth-
It was the Lord
Who sent me
To you


To SPEAK all these things
For you to hear” Jeremiah 26:15


And so many times
WHEN I was going
THROUGH tough times in life


Someone spoke something to me
To INSPIRE me
And keep me going


Or I have picked u p the right book
Or READ the exact passage
That I NEEDED to read in the bible


That is the way
THE SPIRIT WORKS
He always gives us
EXACTLY the right words
We need to speak or hear
At exactly the right time


“How SWEET
Are your words
To my taste


Sweeter than honey
To my mouth” Psalm 119:103


“GRACIOUS WORDS
Are a honeycomb


Sweet to the soul
And HEALING to the bones” Proverbs 16:24


“Heaven and earth
WILL pass away
But my words


Will NEVER pass away” Luke 24:35


And the REASON that is:
Is GOD'S words are light-
Jesus' words are SPIRIT


They are TRUTH
They are life
They will never pass away


They are precisely
The right words
At precisely
The RIGHT TIME


The SPIRIT'S words
Are given to us
In the give and take
Of a LIFE OF FAITH


We have times
WHEN we need to be encouraged
And we have times
When we need to ENCOURAGE OTHERS


The Spirit KNOWS what we need
To do
And when we need to do it


“Do not cast me
From your presence
Or take your Holy Spirit from me” Psalm 51:11


“At that time
You will be GIVEN what to say


For it will not be you speaking
But the SPIRIT of the Father
SPEAKING through you” Matthew 10:19-20


Dear Lord:
We know we are CALLED to be
The voices of encouragement-
To others in today's world


Please CONTINUE
To give me/GIVE US
THE RIGHT WORDS-
At THE RIGHT TIME


In Jesus' name-let it be
