I'VE GOT THE TEA

Isaiah 58:1, “Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.”
Let’s be honest, when someone says, “I’ve got the tea,” we lean in. We expect the inside scoop, the real story, the truth behind the curtain. But today, I’m not here to spill gossip. I’m here to pour truth. And not just any truth, the kind that sets captives free, heals broken hearts, and calls us back to righteousness.
Isaiah 58:1 is God’s invitation to speak boldly, to lift our voices like trumpets, and to declare what needs to be heard, not to shame, but to awaken. The “tea” we carry as believers isn’t scandal, it’s salvation. It’s the truth that convicts, corrects, and ultimately restores.

God told Isaiah, “Cry aloud, spare not.” That means don’t hold back. Don’t whisper when the world needs a shout. Don’t sugarcoat when souls are starving for substance. We live in a time where silence can be mistaken for consent, and compromise can masquerade as compassion. But the Word of God is clear: love tells the truth.
And here’s the encouragement, when we speak truth in love, we’re not alone. We’re backed by Heaven. We’re echoing the voice of the prophets, the cry of the apostles, and the heart of Jesus Himself. He didn’t come to condemn the world, but to save it. And salvation begins with revelation.
So yes, I’ve got the tea. And here it is: God is still holy. Grace is still available. Repentance is still powerful. And restoration is still possible. The same God who called out the house of Jacob is calling us today, not to shame us, but to shape us.
Let your voice be a trumpet. Let your words be seasoned with grace. And let your life be a testimony that truth, when spoken in love, brings healing.
“Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:32.
So yes, I’ve got the tea. And it’s not gossip, it’s gospel. It’s not hearsay, it’s holy. The truth of God’s Word is not meant to tear down, but to build up. It convicts so it can cleanse. It exposes so it can heal. And when we cry aloud and spare not, we’re not just sounding an alarm, we’re offering a lifeline.
Let us be bold, but let us also be compassionate. Let our voices be trumpets of truth, but let our hearts remain tender with grace. Because the same God who called out the sins of Jacob is the same God who sent His Son to redeem them. And He’s still redeeming today.
So lift up your voice. Speak truth. Share the tea that heals. And remember: “The Lord is not slack concerning his promise… but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” 2 Peter 3:9.
