Talk Too Much
15 I don’t really
understand myself, for I want to do what is right, but I don’t do it. Instead,
I do what I hate. 16 But if I know that what I am doing is wrong, this shows
that I agree that the law is good. 17 So I am not the one doing wrong; it is
sin living in me that does it. 18 And I know that nothing good lives in me,
that is, in my sinful nature.[d] I want to do what is right, but I can’t. 19 I
want to do what is good, but I don’t. I don’t want to do what is wrong, but I
do it anyway. 20 But if I do what I don’t want to do, I am not really the one
doing wrong; it is sin living in me that does it. 21 I have discovered this
principle of life—that when I want to do what is right, I inevitably do what is
wrong. 22 I love God’s law with all my heart. 23 But there is another power[e]
within me that is at war with my mind. This power makes me a slave to the sin
that is still within me. 24 Oh, what a miserable person I am! Who will free me
from this life that is dominated by sin and death? 25 Thank God! The answer is
in Jesus Christ our Lord. So you see how it is: In my mind I really want to
obey God’s law, but because of my sinful nature I am a slave to sin (Roman
15-25, NLT)
This morning
as I drove into work I was praying and I heard, “You talk too much”. I didn’t think too much of it. But, I thought to myself that's a good blog to write about talking too much. So I thought of Joseph story in
Genesis 37, when he told his brother about his dream and we know what happened
next. (Please read text for the complete story). As I worship in my car, I
keeping hearing the word over and over, “You talk too much”. I prayed and I
left it alone. Upon arriving at work I was handing out some flyer for a church
convention and I heard in my spirit to speak to a co-worker. I keep hearing
louder and louder, “You talk too much”.
So, I figure
why not talk for the glory of God, since I like to talk too much. I wouldn’t
share the details, but that individual need to hear from me. I prayed with the
person and I said, today is your today, for a miracle. Today, is the day, God
wants to visit you. Amen. As I sat down to write this blog it made sense to me,
why I talk too much. Ladies and gentlemen when they enemy don’t want you to
minster to others, he will send all kind of tactics to you. But you must be
determined and purpose in your mind that whatever you do, it is for the glory
of God.
Yes there
are times, what we should do, we don’t do. The people we should talk to for
help we don’t but the people we should not share things with, we do. It life.
But when you have come to your sense and share it with Jesus, yes Jesus that
when He can send someone to encourage you. Don’t be fooled that you can keep
your mouth closed and say that God knows your situation. NO! You better learn
to talk with Jesus. You better cry out like blind Bartimaeus for your healing. Amen.
I leave you with this, close mouth don’t get feed. Make sure you are talking
too much with Jesus. Be bless.
