If anyone speaks, let it be as one who speaks God’s words; if anyone serves, let it be from the strength God provides, so that God may be glorified through Jesus Christ in everything. To him be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.
Introduction
Introduction
In this brief verse, we find two essential points that can guide us in our journey of sharing the message of God with others.
1.Firstly, this verse reminds us of the incredible responsibility we bear when we speak on God's behalf.
1.Firstly, this verse reminds us of the incredible responsibility we bear when we speak on God's behalf.
When we have the privilege of sharing the Word of God, whether it be through teaching, preaching, or everyday conversations, we must recognize the weight that lies upon our words.
Our speech should not be taken lightly, for we possess a tremendous opportunity to directly impact others' lives and direct them toward God's truth.
Therefore, we must approach our speech with utmost humility and reverence.
We are not mere conveyors of information or techniques to impress others; instead, we should see ourselves as vessels, representing God himself, and conveying his message to those in need.
This calls for a posture of surrender, recognizing that the words we speak are not our own, but rather an expression of God's love, wisdom, and truth.
2.Secondly, this verse encourages us to align our words with the very words of God.
2.Secondly, this verse encourages us to align our words with the very words of God.
As we speak, we ought to reflect the character and values of our Creator.
This means bearing witness to the transformative power of grace, salvation, and righteousness found in the teachings of Jesus Christ.
It means treating others with love, compassion, and forgiveness, mimicking the example set by our Lord.
To achieve this alignment, we need to immerse ourselves in God's Word.
When we spend time in diligent study and prayer, we cultivate a deep understanding of God's heart and his ways.
As a result, the words we speak become aligned with the very nature of God himself.

So, dear brothers and sisters, let us approach the task of speaking with the awareness that we carry the privilege and responsibility of representing God's truth.
Let us strive to speak as if we are the very mouthpiece of God, bearing witness to his love, grace, and redemption.
May our words bring light to those in darkness, comfort to the hurting, and hope to the weary.
As we go forth from this place, may our speech be saturated with the presence of God, and may we become conduits of his eternal truth. Amen.
