Give Me Words to Speak

I’m not usually a nervous person. But I can’t help it tonight. I’m going back to a former Church tomorrow morning to raise support for Fusion. It’s been over three years since I’ve been there, and I’m nervous. What if the words don’t come? What if they don’t buy in to the vision?

But then I am reminded…I am reminded of God’s promises. I especially think of the fear that Moses had before returning to Egypt. Certainly after the burning bush experience and all that I AM had spoken to him he knew he had a great message to preach….yet he still doubted his own tongue; his own persuasiveness. Then God speaks to him:

11 The LORD said to him, “Who gave human beings their mouths? Who makes them deaf or mute? Who gives them sight or makes them blind? Is it not I, the LORD? 12 Now go; I will help you speak and will teach you what to say.” (Exodus 4:11-12)

Lord, I give this all to you. My prayer is that you empty me, and simply speak:

Every night, every day
I find that I have nothing left to say
So I stand here in silence awaiting Your guidance
I’m wanting only Your voice to be heard
Let them be Your Words
Let them be Your words

Give me Words to speak
Don’t let my Spirit sleep
Cause I can’t think of anything worth saying
But I know that I owe You my life
So give me Words to speak
Don’t let my Spirit sleep

  1. Thank you for receiving the blessing and teachings that your spirit has brought to us. I am scheduled for a talk in May and will lean upon these words for strength!! I know God has to do this NOT ME.. Please pray that I get out of his way..

  2. Hey! I had a dream last night that I was preaching to some college freshman about trusting God through their college experiences…weird…I know…but if you are trusting that God has led you through this process that he will speak through you. Let us know how it went…and what is Fusion?
