Study to be quiet - Word of God. I’ll like to encourage each and every member of this great family this day to study to be quiet. The bible talking in Proverbs 10:19 says “Sin is unavoidable when there is much talk, but whoever seals his lips is wise”
Your words can either make you or mar (spoil or ruin) you. Your words can either feed your followers or starve them of the desired nutrition’s “The lips of the righteous feed many: but fools die for want of wisdom” - Proverb 10:21
1Thessalonian 4:11 has this to say: (we’ve compiled about 8 versions of the bible for a better understanding.
(American Standard Version - ASV) and that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your hands, even as we charged you;
(God’s Word - GW) Also, make it your goal to live quietly, do your work, and earn your own living, as we ordered you.
(International Standard Version - ISV) Also, make it your goal to live quietly, to mind your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we instructed you,
(King James Version - KJV) And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;
(Modern King James Version - MKJV) and that you try earnestly to be quiet and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you,
(Webster) And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;
Why do I need to be quiet “That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing” 1Thess 4:12
Always have a quiet time where you do nothing but sit down, be in the spirit and wait on the lord to speak to you if he wills.
See you at the top
Prayer line: Lord, I receive the grace to be quiet and wait upon you to speak to me.
