Jeremiah 1:5-10 (NLT)
"I
knew you before I formed you in your mother's womb. Before you were born I set
you apart and appointed you as My spokesman to the world."
"O
Sovereign LORD, “I said,
"I can't speak for you! I'm too young!" Don't say that, "the
LORD replied, "for you must go wherever I send you and say whatever I tell
you. And don't be afraid of the people, for I will be with you and take care of
you. I, the LORD, have spoken!" Then the LORD touched my mouth and said,
"See, I have put My Words in your mouth! Today I appoint you to stand up
against nations and kingdoms. You are to uproot some and tear them down, to
destroy and overthrow them. You are to build others up and plant them."
Prayer
O
my precious God, You have formed me in my mother's womb. Before I was born You
set me apart and appointed me as Your spokeswoman to the world.
O
Sovereign LORD, "I said, "I can't speak for you! I am too young!"
Don't say that, "the LORD replied, "for you must go wherever I send
you and say whatever I tell you. Do not be afraid of the people, for I will be
with you and take care of you. You the LORD have spoken! Then the LORD touched
my mouth and said, "See, I have put My Words in your mouth! Today I
appoint you to stand up against nations and kingdoms. You are to uproot some
and tear them down, to destroy and overthrow them. You are to build others up
and plant them." Lord, You have spoken to me and I will obey Your
commandments. I will walk in faith and put my trust in You to equip and empower me with
the right words to reach the heart of Your people. I will magnify and
glorify Your precious Name through Jesus Christ my LORD. Amen
