“Even so the tongue is a little member and boasteth great things: behold how great a matter a little fire kindleth! And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defieth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature: and it is set on fire of hell. For every kind of beasts, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind. But the tongue can no man tame: it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.”
James 3:5-8 KJV
A fool uttereth all his mind: but a wise man keepeth it in till afterwards.
Proverbs 29:11
My fellow pilgrims in the journey of faith, one of the things that you and I as believers must learn if we want to be faithful servants in the kingdom of God is how to keep our mouths shut. Very few of us have mastered that skill. When we get our backs up about something, we think we have to let everyone know about it. We wants to give people a piece of my mind.
Brethren, do not make that mistake, because no one wants or needs a piece of your mind, and if you give it to them, you will only end up alienating people and bringing harm to yourself. Learn, instead, to keep quiet, be encourage to keep a low profile when it comes to spiritual secret.
Beloved, this especially applies in the area of spiritual insight. When the Holy Spirit gives you discernment about a situation, do not go spreading it all over town. If you do, you will come to the place where the Lord cannot trust you with revelation and insight into things and situations. I have seen that happen, and I have known intercessors who have received revelations about someone’s weaknesses or needs. They have been given insight into the problem in someone’s life, so they could pray for that person. But, instead of keeping that information between themselves and God in prayer, they told others about it. As a result, they lost their effectiveness as intercessors.
Beloved brethren in the Lord, do not let that happen to you. Develop the quiet art of the wise man, and the devil will find it increasingly difficult to harm your prayer life and ministry to others in Jesus name Amen. Shalom.
I pray that the Lord with divine secret that will enlarge your coast and turn around your captivity in Jesus name Amen.
I pray that Lord by His mercy will ordain men and women into your life that will arise for the lifting up of your head, and you shall not be disgrace in Jesus name Amen.
As you bridle your tongue and keep a low profile, the Lord will mercifully open the secret of treasures of this life unto you in Jesus name Amen.
