The Profitable Ministry of Mouth Padlock {Part 1}
There is a ministry that every man to pay attention to in order to attain and sustain their breakthroughs. A lot of people would have seen the result of their long time praying if they have been faithful in this ministry. This ministry might be the only thing some people need to be able to fulfil their destiny and be what God wants them to become; the ministry is the ministry of Mouth Padlock.
The Profitable Ministry of Mouth Padlock
In the book of Luke, (Luke 1:6-20); There was a priest of God name Zacharias; He was a righteous man that served God faithfully. This man was the only one allowed to enter into the holy of holies. One day he was in the holy of holies when angel Gabriel appeared to him; the angel brought to him positive prophesy that he will have a very powerful child and very wonderful blessings attached to this prophecy. Instead of Zacharias to shout for Joy and praise God, he began to use his mouth to give reasons why the prophesy cannot come to pass.
Angel Gabriel had to silence him so that he would not use his mouth to cancel the prophesy. This is the reason why Angel Gabriel made Zacharias dumb until the prophesy had come to pass.
Ø A lot of people have received answers to their prayers and have every time canceled their testimony.
Ø Many negative confessions people make have neutralize several of our prayers.
Some people fail their examination before actually sitting to write the exam. They would have already underscored themselves in some subject they think they are not good in; some would say Biology C3, English f9, Yoruba A1 and so on.
That tongue has destroyed a lot of destinies.
"To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven" {Eccl 3:1}
"A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;" {Eccl 3:7}
The Bible made it clear that there is time for every thing
Certainly there is a time for silence and there is time to speak.
There are times;
When speaking will cause more trouble; when speaking is not necessary; Time when silence is golden
Many people need to lock their mouth so that their breakthrough will manifest
"For thus saith the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel; in returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and ye would not.” {Isa 30:15}
There is strength in quietness.
It activate your spiritual strength
"Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth." {Psalm 46:10}
When we are still, it will make us know God better.
As a matter of rule, God does not speak when man is speaking
"I said I will take heed to my ways that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.” {Psalm 39:1}
There is need to padlock your mouth in front of the wicked
Don't reveal information about your life to the wicked.
There is what is called “the need to know” Don’t give anybody any information unless; there is a good reason why they need to know.
Not everything about you has to be publicized
Your mouth can be a ladder for the wicked
"I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; and my sorrow was stirred." {Psalm 39:2}
Silence is an activator of the Anointing
"The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.” {Exodus 14:14}
Silence is an activator of divine defense
"Whoso keepeth his mouthand his tongue keepethhis soul from troubles." {Proverbs 21:23}
Silence is an activator of soul immunity
Too much talk empties you of power
"And the high priest arose, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? What is it which these witness against thee? But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest answered and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God." {Matt 26:62-63}
Even Jesus is a man that always held his peace;
There are many situations in life where silence is golden.
“Thouhas proved mine heart; thou hast visited me in the night; thou has tried me, and shalt find nothing; I am purposed that my mouth shall not transgress." {Psalm 17:3}
You need to determine, purpose that your mouth shall not transgress.
The secret is holy silence.
Jesus was silent before is accuser; Jesus is a silent savior
v The tongue is as volatile and dangerous as it is vital.
v Those who are closest to God are those that have present to be quiet.
v No one can misquote silence
Put the Holy Spirit on guard of your mouth. Don't ever talk without heaven approval
