The "Sound of Silence".

                                                                   The “Sound of Silence”.


The “Sound of Silence” is “Very Loud”.


Now Joshua had commanded the people saying, “You shall not shout or make any noise with your voice, nor shall a word proceed out of your mouth”, Until the Day I say to you, “Shout”!  Then You Shall Shout.  (Joshua 6:10) 


Even fools are “thought” wise if they keep Silent, and discerning if they hold their tongues.  (Proverbs 17:28)


They Marched Around Jericho, “Without Saying A Word”.


Our Daily Nugget

is two situations in the Bible showing the “Power and the Wisdom” of “Silence”.  There is a “Time to Speak”, and “A Time to Refrain from Speaking”.  Rather we are possessed by a Spirit of Wisdom or a Spirit of Foolishness is shown in, “Our Silence or Lack Thereof”.


Being “Slow to Speak” is Obedience to Scripture and Wise Actions, which is the Fruit of Wise Thinking.  It is not wise to Trust a person who Can’t Control their Tongue.  An Out of Control Tongue is the Fruit of a “Out Of Control Thinking Process”, Heart/Mind.  The Bible says that the mouth speaks what the heart/mind has been filled with.


The Sound of Silence, can mean many things!

The Inhabitants of Jericho were “Terrified” at The “Sound of Silence”.


Silence - A sign of wisdom and restraint, a posture of “Reverence” and “Awe” before God, a period of “lament and suffering”, or a way to listen to God’s “Voice and Presence”.


The Walls of Jericho fell as the people Obeyed God’s Commands to be Silent and Trust, and to Shout when it was time to Shout.  There is a Time to Shout and a Time to Be Silent.  The Holy Spirit will Tell us when to do both, “As We Lean And Depend On Him”.


Kingdom Citizens and Snakes, 

both utilize the Sound of Silence for their Purpose.


What do you Utilize the Sound of Silence For?

The Heart/Mind.

                                                                        The Heart/Mind. The Heart/Mind of Christ or the Heart/Mind of Satan?   Fulfill ye my joy, that ye be “likeminded”, “Having the Same Love”, “being of one accord, of one mind”.   “Let nothing be done” through “strife or vainglory”; but in “lowliness of mind (heart) let each esteem other better than themselves”.   Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.   “Let This Mind (Heart) Be In You”, “which was also in Christ Jesus”.   (Philippians 2:2-5) The Heart/Mind of Christ is “A Priceless Blessing”; Available to Us. Our Daily Nugget is Paul letting the Church at Philippi and us know that Kingdom Citizens should be “Of One Mind (Heart/Thinking)”.   Since we have One Lord, One ...

Real Strength!

                                                                           Real Strength!   “Real Strength” is Humility - “Real Weakness” is Pride.. In the same way, you who are younger, submit yourselves to your elders.   All of you, clothe yourselves with “humility” toward one another, because   “God Opposes the proud” but Shows “Favor” to the Humble”.   “Humble yourselves”, therefore under God’s Mighty Hand, that He may lift you up in due time.   Cast all your anxiety on Hum “Because He Cares For You”. (1 Peter5:5&6) The Humbled Heart/Mind has God Fighting For Them;   “That’s Real Strength”, “That’s God’s Favor”! Our Daily Nugget is letting us know that “We All Need To Clothe Ourselves in Humility”, because; God opposes the Proud, and that God “Shows Favor to the ...
