Silence Of The Lambs
Contributed by James May on Nov 28, 2017 (message contributor)
Summary: We are the sheep of God's pasture, but we often have trouble hearing God because of the bleating of our own voices. How often does God say to us, "Before I can speak, or move in your midst, let there be silence among the lambs"?
Matthew 12:36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
Matthew 12:37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
Those words of Jesus are sufficient for me to say that sometimes it would be far better to hear the Silence of the Lambs. Be careful what you speak; and repent of wrong words quickly; for every word will be tried and revealed in the courts of Heaven.
Let our prayer be as the prayer of David in Psalms 19:14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my Strength, and my Redeemer.
