why wait?

Jeremiah 20.9 But His word was in my heart like a burning fire shut up in my bones; I was weary of holding it back, and I could not.
1 Timothy 4.12 Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity.
Ecclesiastes 12.1 Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth.
Acts 21.8-9 …and stayed at the house of Philip the evangelist, one of the Seven. He had four unmarried daughters who prophesied.
Jeremiah 1.4-9 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying: “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.” Then I said: “Ah, Lord GOD! Behold, I cannot speak, for I am a youth.” But the LORD said to me: “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ For you shall go to all to whom I send you, and whatever I command you, you shall speak. Do not be afraid of their faces, for I am with you to deliver you,” says the LORD. Then the LORD put forth His hand and touched my mouth, and the LORD said to me: “Behold, I have put My words in your mouth.”

    speaking Christ…who is a fire shut up in our bones…an all consuming fire which is also shut up in our bones. the Living God is a speaking God. amen. in Christ we have real authority to speak his will in love, from the day we recieve his spirit. awesome.

    that “fire” is the Holy Ghost baptism we have a new baptism every day living and dwelling inside us… its even in our bones… (such was Elisha) when he died they put a man in the same place that he lay and the body touched his bones and the man lived. 2Kings 13:21 What power…. God hears and speaks and is a living God!
