Dear Readers, Just to share what i've came across:

- By Eric Elder

There are times when God wants you to hold your tongue. For instance, when Jesus healed two blind men, He told them sternly, “See that no one knows about this” (Matthew 9:30). And when Jesus brought Jairus’ daughter back from the dead, Jesus gave strict orders not to let anyone know about it (Mark 5:43).

But there are other times when God wants you to speak. For instance, when Jesus cast the demons out of the man named Legion, Jesus told him: “Return home and tell how much God has done for you” (Luke 8:39a). Or when Jesus healed ten men of leprosy on the road to Jerusalem, He told them: “Go, show yourselves to the priests” (Luke 17:14b).

So there are times when God wants you to hold your tongue, but there are also times when God wants you to speak. And when God calls you to speak, He wants you to be ready. The Bible says, “Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have” (1 Peter 3:15).

I’d like to give you three ideas today to help you speak when God calls you to speak. I’ve pulled these ideas from the story in Acts chapter 7 where God called Stephen to speak. Stephen spoke powerfully, even though it was dangerous to do so. When Stephen was arrested and had to defend himself, he gave one of the boldest speeches in the Bible. Because of it, he was stoned to death, but his words were not in vain.

Here are the three things that I noticed Stephen did, and we can do, when God says to speak: 1) Don’t be afraid.2) Pair up your words with Scripture.3) Trust God to use His Word to transform lives.

First, don’t be afraid. Jesus had already forewarned His followers before He died that they would be arrested and flogged and persecuted. Jesus told them: “So do not be afraid of them. There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known. What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the roofs. Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell” (Matthew 10:26-28).

Although Stephen could have been afraid that day, he didn’t let it keep him from speaking.

Second, pair up your words with Scripture. Stephen might also have worried about what he was going to say to his accusers, but Jesus had already told His followers: “But when they arrest you, do not worry about what to say or how to say it. At that time you will be given what to say, for it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you” (Matthew 10:19-20).

God did give Stephen words to speak: His Word. When Stephen spoke, he paired up his own words with Scripture to support what he was saying. Stephen quoted from Genesis, Exodus, Deuteronomy, Amos and Isaiah. When Stephen spoke, God spoke His Words through Stephen. This is one of the reasons it’s so important to read your Bible, study your Bible and memorize your Bible. When you know God’s Word, it helps you to infuse your words with His. And if you can’t find a Scripture to go with your words, you might want to rethink what you were going to say!

Third, trust that God will use His Word to transform lives. The Bible says that one of the men who heard Stephen speak that day was Saul, who at the time gave approval to Stephen’s death. But if you keep reading in Acts, you’ll see that Saul became a Christian himself shortly thereafter. Jesus changed Saul’s name to Paul, and Paul went on to write much of the rest of the New Testament, including the letters to the Romans, Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians and more.

Even though Stephen died, God used his words that day to reach many lives, including ours over 2,000 years later! As God said, “My word...will not return to Me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it” (Isaiah 55:11).

When God calls you to speak, speak. Don’t be afraid. Pair up your words with Scripture. And trust that God will use His Word to transform lives.

Let’s pray... Father, help us to speak when You say, “Speak.” In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Dear readers! After such a long time, i've finally start blogging, I'm excited about it. What bout you guys? Well, the reason i started blogging bcoz i'm gg to start bible school in Apr 2008. I would like to dedicate this blog to the period of time in SOT, to be my jounal diary. I will be gg to FT1 BS tml. The sermon ytd was GOOOOOOD. " To get where you want to go in life, you must start at where you are." It takes decision, dedication and discipline to be successful. A double minded man will not get to anywhere. Procrastine have became an "in" word between my mbr and I now. LOLx. During the begining of the year , when i've decided to go SOT, alot of things happen to me, firstly thinking that where am i going to have the finances to pay for my SOT fees, study loans, HP bills, transport etc. The list can just go on and on, but one thing i know We can never short change God. I decided to take the step of FAITH, quit my full time job and enrol myself into SOT. Things didn't turn out to be what i expected. Like miracles or whatsoever, thinking that they will be blessings or some sponsorship kinda of things. With no fixed income for the past few months, Life is not easy, sacrifices has to be make. It was through this period of time, I really trusted God during the tough time, though pockets may be empty but my heart was full. It was God's strength that kept me through these times. I believe the best has yet to come. Can't wait for SOT to start in Apr 7. So excited! Woo Hoo.... What i would like to share is if God has a calling for u or a purpose, Obey it and fulfill it, don't procrastine anymore. HE will make a way where there seem to be no way. Amen! I thank God for giving this chance to share my testimony. Continue to believe that the "HARVEST" of your life is on its way. So i believe that this year is to be the best year yet in my life. It will be the same for you guys if you continnue to trust in God in whatever you do. Because there is so many new beginnings that happpen in 2008. I will continue to share more about it in my next post. Stay tuned! Before i end my post just to wish everyone a "HAPPY APRIL FOOL'S DAY". Hope you guys enjoying tricking others. Sound a little "lame"... Wahaha..
