Isaiah and Ezekiel have overwhelming visions in which they see the glory of the Lord. Ezekiel falls on his face when he sees the vision, but he is told to stop being dramatic and stand up. Isaiah has a similar experience, he sees the glory of the Lord and Seraphs flying around and smoke filling the throneroom. Jeremiah has a slightly more commonplace experience, he just hears God’s voice directly tell him that before he was even formed in the womb he was appointed to be a prophet to the nations, no big deal. All three of these guys have overwhelming experience where they are called to be prophets. But I want to look at one particular element that these call narratives hold in common; namely, that all three of these prophets have their lips or mouth touched and consecrated by God. In Isaiah 6, Isaiah’s mouth is touched by a piece of coal from that altar, after which his guilt departs from him, despite his declaration that he is “a man of unclean lips.” Ezekiel is told to eat the contents of a scroll that is handed to him, he obeys and quickly realizes that the scroll tastes as sweet as honey. In Jeremiah’s story, the Lord reaches out and touches Jeremiah’s lips, thus putting His words into the mouth of the prophet. I think one of the major themes we can draw from these stories that once God calls an individual, his or her words become very important. Upon calling each of these prophets, God enacts a strong symbolic action regarding the mouth and words of His chosen prophet. It seems to me that the words of anyone who feels a call from God are important in the same manner as the mouths of Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Isaiah. Let us remember that when we act upon a call to ministry, our words and actions become a mouthpiece for God Himself. I pray that we who intend to do ministry take seriously the consecration of our mouths. Whether in public or in private, our words ought to reflect the mission and action of God in the world. If we feel the “fire in our bones” of God wanting to work through us, let us be careful not to misrepresent him with our mouths.
