I never heard it that way around. I have only heard, “From your lips to God’s ears,” meaning, of course, “May God hear and grant your prayer.”

I didn’t expect it to be anything. I had a strange dream the other week about my dad, who died 15 years ago. He said that in my dream, so I wondered if it was a saying I had picked up somewhere and kept in my subconcious. I know the “From your lips to God’s ears.”

And that is the only way that I have ever heard, as well. I suppose though, that there are many who would have us believe that every word that they say are God's words and we had better pay appropriate attention!!! That reminds me of a certain poster that came on like an OT prophet (didn't he also assume an OT prophet's screen name?).
