Pay Attention to Platforms of Communication

Adar – A Month of Declaration & Joy 5780 – A Year and Decade of Declaration

This past week in my quiet time with the Lord I heard Him say- “Pay attention to the platforms of communication I have put before you and in your heart”.

Platforms of communication come in various ways- big and small- public and private. They can be in the form of books, blogs, posts, texts, or emails the Lord puts in our hearts or on our desks. They can also be in the form of conversations over coffee, around the conference table, behind the closed doors of a court case, or at a banquet hall toasting a celebration.

More platforms appear before us where our body language is expressed. We communicate through movement- the way we walk in a room, extend a smile to a stranger, dance on stage or in the privacy of our homes before the Lord.

Whatever the platform, the same truth exists across the board. “Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.” (Matt 12:34) Whatever goes in our heart comes out- good or bad. Life and death are in the power of the tongue. (Prov 18:21). Our words carry power. These platforms exist for us to express our faith through words of life. The Lord is calling us to speak, write, smile, dance, decree and declare His truth in love and with joy!

Pay attention to the platforms before you. What is in your hand? What is in your heart? It will flow out of your mouth. Now is the time to cultivate the gifts of communication He has given you. It starts in the secret place- in your relationship with Him and His word- and then actively expressing your faith.

May we go forth like Esther and the tribe of Naphtali- leaping and speaking life with joy- for such a time as this! ✨
