it's really OK to have a smart mouth :) read the Scripture

God has been on my case lately :)

I know where He was leading , but for a while I just took my time to obey and it effected my personal daily victory . I LOVE the Scripture, I am crazy about God's Word, and I memorized it once in a while, but most I just meditated on it and studied it. So God told me to start memorizing one Scripture a day. I obeyed this time. I went to Wal-Mart, got the index cards and every day now I'm asking Him to show me the Scripture He wants me to know by heart and He is so faithful to do that every single day. It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be :) I am learning to love the WORD of God in a new, fresh, exciting way.
So this morning I wrote down Mark 14:38 (I am not cheating as I am writing it down :)) here we go ,"Watch and pray so you won't fall into teptation. The spirit is willing but the body is weak." yay! I am getting there....well, that was free, I haven't even began making my point :)
This morning in my time with God I read Isa. 50:4,5 " The Sovereign LORD has given me am instructed tongue, to KNOW THE WORD that sustains the weary. He wakens me morning by morning , wakens my ear to listen like one being taught. The Sovereign LORD has opened my ears and I have not rebelled, I have not drawn back". I felt fresh breath of God over this Scripture I've read before. I know all of us would like to have an instructed tongue, the smart mouth of sorts :):):)the key to get is to KNOW THE WORD. The key to know the Word is to allow GOD to wake you up in the morning and be teachable (Ps. 5:3 , "In the morning , O LORd, you hear my voice and in the morning I lay my requests before YOU and wait in expectation" ). I am absolutely grateful for His considirate care in this Scripture. Look, it says, "He wakens me and opens my ear" ...you can say that prophet Isaiah wasn't a morning person like many of us! Amen! So the LORD not only awaken him, He had to open his ears as well. If I were to write this Scripture, I would write, "The Sovereign LORD awakens me morning by morning with the coffee smell of His presence, He opens not only my ears, but my eyes and turns my brain on so I can learn from Him" (NLV- new Lenna's Version )....
God doesn't mind us to have a smart mouth, only if our mouth is full of HIS WORD. So, use your smart mouth with the enemy and do not give him rest. Make the enemy scared when you wake up every morning and make him say, "oh boy, he/she is up and together with GOD they mean busyness".
