God's word has much to say about believers putting His word in their mouth. Those who will participate in the promises of God are those who put the word in their mouth. Your blessing can be limited by the lack of revelation!
Put His Word In Your Mouth
Whose Report Will You Believe? Walking In The Revelation of His Word!
Isaiah 53:1 Who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed?
Will you be the one? Blessed eyes and ears will walk in the revelation brought by the arm of God.
Isaiah 51:16 And I have put My words in your mouth; I have covered you with the shadow of My hand, That I may plant the heavens, Lay the foundations of the earth, And say to Zion , 'You are My people.'"
Isaiah the prophet of God spoke many prophetic utterances concerning the covenant of Grace. This is but one example of God revealing His covenant of grace through His prophets. Imagine the enormity of the truth spoken here in this one verse! God putting His word in our mouth and covering us with the shadow of His hand!
Romans 10:6 But the righteousness of faith speaks in this way, "Do not say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?' " (that is, to bring Christ down from above) 7 or, " 'Who will descend into the abyss?' " (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? "The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart" (that is, the word of faith which we preach):
The word of faith which should be preached is found here in these sweet verses. You don’t have to go wondering around looking for the answers to the problems. The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart!
NOTE THE VERY NEXT VERSE - It's quoted in the "Road to salvation" often. Put it in context of the verses above and get the full revelation: (added by tjp as per Bruce's preaching Sunday morning)
Romans 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame."
It is with the heart that one believes unto righteousness. However that is not the end of it! We must put the word into our mouth and confession is made unto salvation!
2 Corinthians 4:13 And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, "I believed and therefore I spoke," we also believe and therefore speak,
The spirit of faith will put words in your mouth! We believe and therefore we speak!
Romans 4:17 (as it is written, "I have made you a father of many nations") in the presence of Him whom he believed; God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did;
The object of Abraham’s faith was in God. The God who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did! We have a great big wonderful God!
Hebrews 11:11 By faith Sarah herself also received strength to conceive seed, and she bore a child when she was past the age, because she judged Him faithful who had promised.
Sarah received strength to conceive seed because she judged God as faithful who had promised.
Psalm 19:14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your sight, O LORD, my strength and my Redeemer.
What is it that you are filling your mouth with? Do those around you know you as a one who has a praise or as one who has a complaint in your mouth?
Proverbs 18:20A man's stomach shall be satisfied from the fruit of his mouth, From the produce of his lips he shall be filled. 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.
Death and life are in the power of the tongue; what is it you fill your mouth with?
Psalm 104:33 I will sing to the LORD as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have my being. 34 May my meditation be sweet to Him; I will be glad in the LORD.
I have a longing in my soul that my meditation will be sweet to God; I will be glad in the Lord.
Philippians 2:14 Do all things without complaining and disputing, 15 that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, 16 holding fast the word of life, so that I may rejoice in the day of Christ that I have not run in vain or labored in vain.
One holds fast to the word of life by the words of their mouth! Complaining and disputing are stumbling blocks to our participation in the goodness of God.
Luke 12:31 "But seek the kingdom of God , and all these things shall be added to you. 32 "Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
God’s desire for you are high; expectation level needs to be raised to the height of God plan for you! God’s divine order has perimeters; preeminence is seeking the kingdom.
Galatians 6:7 Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. 8 For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.
The words of our mouth are planting a garden. Are we partaking from the tree of life or are we partaking from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
Isaiah 59:19 So shall they fear The name of the LORD from the west, And His glory from the rising of the sun; When the enemy comes in like a flood, The Spirit of the LORD will lift up a standard against him. 20 "The Redeemer will come to Zion , And to those who turn from transgression in Jacob," Says the LORD.
When the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him. The Redeemer will come to Zion and to those who turn from transgression.
Isaiah 59:21 "As for Me," says the LORD, "this is My covenant with them: My Spirit who is upon you, and My words which I have put in your mouth, shall not depart from your mouth, nor from the mouth of your descendants, nor from the mouth of your descendants' descendants," says the LORD, "from this time and forevermore."
God is clearly making His will known to His people. This covenant of grace is the covenant by which God puts His word in the mouths of His people. God has declared He will put His word in your mouth and it will not depart from your mouth and your descendants mouth and your descendants’ descendants. People will say of you, "all they want to talk about is the Bible. They just can’t talk about anything else but God!" God’s desire is clear, come surrender to His desire.
Isaiah 60:1 Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the LORD is risen upon you. 2 For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, And deep darkness the people; But the LORD will arise over you, And His glory will be seen upon you.
Chapter headings and verses are very useful to us. However on occasion they spilt up an idea that is continuous. Here is one of those time. Everyone loves the “Arise and shine for your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you!" However we must keep the passage in context! We can not arise and shine without allowing God to put His word in our mouth! You want God’s glory on you; put His word in your mouth! Do you want to participate in all of His promises; put his word in your mouth. Do you want to always walk in triumph; put His word in your mouth.
1 John 2:14 I have written to you, fathers, Because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, Because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, And you have overcome the wicked one.
When the word of God abides in you, you will overcome the wicked one!
Luke 4:4 But Jesus answered him, saying, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.'"
“Men shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.” Put it in your mouth proclaim it, confess it, meditate upon it and you will find success!
