Time to Keep Silence

...time to keep silence, and a time to speak; - Ecclesiastes 3:7 

There was a conspiracy against Joseph by his brothers, He was attacked and sold into slavery but little did they know that The plans of God for his life will still come to pass. But what actually led Joseph to go through all that troubles was his mouth. He didn't learn to kept his mouth shut (Genesis 37:5) It's not everything about yourself that you tell people. There is a time to talk and a time to be silent.

Not everyone around you who is smiling actually have good intentions for you. Joseph brothers eventually bowed to him but he really suffered along the way. When you talk carelessly, you will suffer much.

Samson's ministry was cut short because He leak out his secret, he couldn't keep his mouth shut (Judges 16:17). It's not everything you see, you must talk about, some people are fighting avoidable battles because of their loose mouth. When God show you certain things, it's for you to know what to do and not necessary to start pointing fingers.

Anyone that talks too much will always be in problems. Don't be loquacious , think before you speak. 

The Bible say Mary after the miracle Jesus did in Cana, kept it in her heart and ponder ok it (Luke 2:19).

There are some testimonies you don't just announce anyhow. It's not because you are afraid of the enemy but you are avoiding unnecessary warfare. Proverbs 17:28 says "Even a fool, when he keeps silent, is considered wise; When he closes his lips, he is considered prudent."

This week, God will surprise you beyond your expectation. Everyone looking for your downfall will surely fall in your stead. Everyday of this week shall be testimony for you in Jesus Name.

Good Morning and do have a blessed week!
