Who Made Your Mouth?

God’s question for today comes from Exodus 4:11.

The Lord said to him, “Who gave man his mouth?”

God called Moses to tell the Pharaoh to let God’s people go. Moses had a heart full of hesitation. “I can’t speak well,” he said. “I’m not eloquent.” “Please, send someone else.” I just want to say, “Excuses, excuses.”

Maybe you’ve said something similar. I’m too shy. Too broken. Too slow. Too… something.

But God interrupts our excuses with a question that cuts straight to the heart.

“Who gave man his mouth?”

It’s more than a question—it’s a reminder. A reminder that God made you. He knows your voice, your flaws, your fears—and still, He calls you. Not because you’re perfect, but because He is. He doesn’t need polished vessels. He just needs open ones.

This isn’t just about Moses’ tongue. It’s about your hands, your feet, your story. God says, “I know what I put in you. I know how I wired you. And I will be with you.”

Where do you feel unqualified today? What task feels too big?

Hear God’s whisper: “I made you. And I’ll help you.”

Don’t let your limitations speak louder than God’s calling.

I’m Lonnie Davis, and these are thoughts worth thinking.
