Shut Up With The Shut Up


Psalm 145
9 The LORD is good to all;
he has compassion on all he has made.
10 All you have made will praise you, O LORD;
your saints will extol you.
11 They will tell of the glory of your kingdom
and speak of your might,
12 so that all men may know of your mighty acts
and the glorious splendor of your kingdom.

When was the last time you opened your mouth gave God some credit? This passage is talking about observing what God has done, & then sharing that with others, especially believers.

In large part, God remains hidden, unseen. It is as though a heavy curtain is draped over Him. He has chosen this because He desires that we, His saints, pull the curtain back through our testimony. God is revealed through the words of praise & gratitude you are ascribing to Him to someone else.

What a powerful thought. We really are like stained glass windows, a unique patch-work of colored glass, that illuminate as His glory shines through us. This radiant glow leaves the hearer in awe of God's majesty, strength, love & mercy as your testimony is still ringing in their ears.

So shutup with the shutup. Time to speak up.
