I am not Eloquent - Exodus 4:10

THIS is what we all say. We think more of the words than of the message;
more of our eloquence or slowness of speech than of the King's seal and
signature.
Moses had learned many wholesome lessons through his long sojourn in Midian;
but he had to learn this last one, that God does not want excellency of
speech
or of language in His messengers, but the unction and power which come on
those who speak after direct audience with the Eternal. Aaron, who came to
meet
Moses, could speak well; but he was a weak man, whose alliance with Moses
caused his nobler younger brother much anxiety and pain. However, God
determined
to send Aaron with him, to be his colleague and spokesman. Better a thousand
times had it been for Moses to trust God for speech, than be thus deposed
of his premiership.

Be sure to gel thy message from the King. - Wait before Him in the inner
shrine, till He says the word which thou shalt speak. This will give thee
the
real eloquence of the heart.

Look up for the right words. - The Apostle said that the Corinthians were
enriched in all utterance; and he said that he spoke the Divine mysteries in
words which the Holy Spirit taught. Ask for these, and you will not be
disappointed.

Rely on the Divine cooperation. - There is another force at work, more
subtle and penetrating than the most eloquent words of man - the power of
the Holy
Ghost. Seek for His Divine demonstration and co-witness. And it shall come
to pass, that mysterious influences shall move over the hearts of those that
listen to thy words, which shall attest the mighty fellowship and
cooperation of One whom the natural man cannot detect.

Now to Him who is able to keep you from falling, and to make you stand in
the presence of His glory blameless with great joy, to the only God our
Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and
authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen. Jude 1:24-25
