The words of one’s mouth are deep waters, a fountain of wisdom, a flowing brook. Proverbs 18:4, TLV
Are Your Words from Deep Waters? Have you ever spoken wise and discerning words that penetrated someone’s heart? That those words you spoke came from the heart of GOD? There’s nothing like it.
Being an instrument of our Heavenly Father is an awesome responsibility, as well as a blessing. When we live in His moment, live in His word, we’re more ready to give His message in due season.
Those moments don’t have to be a “Thus saith the LORD” moment. It can be natural and loving. We may not even know when it happens. In fact, this occurs more often than not.
The first time someone said, “What you said changed my life” was precious. But it also was a bit embarrassing because I didn’t remember what I said to them. This has happened many times. Sometimes, I didn’t even remember meeting the person.
But that’s okay. Because it means — at least to me — the words I spoke were not mine, they were His. I didn’t take ownership because the truth belongs to GOD.
Living in Wisdom
When we live in wisdom, when we pursue knowledge, discernment,
and understanding, words of wisdom will flow from us like a sweet river. Those thirsty for GOD and His love will be quenched because of that spring of Living Waters in us.
One of my favorite proverbs is Proverbs 2:10. One translation says, “Wisdom will come into your heart, and it will be your pleasure to know things.” (American Translation)
Don’t you love that? As we live Proverbs — as we live our Father’s word — wisdom will reside in us. It will be a ready resource when needed.
How amazing it is to know those deep waters. How blessed we are that the Creator of the Universe wants to share them with us. And, that He trusts us to share them with others.
Please share a time when the words god gave you impacted another’s life.
May our words be deep waters, my friends.
