QUALIFICATION TO BE LED (5): BE QUIET

And after the earthquake a fire; but the Lord was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.
I Kings 19:12 (KJV)

In our quest to access divine direction, we must maintain quietness in our spirit and in our environment. This is the reason Yahweh calls people up a physical mountain to meet them. It is to come out of the distractions of their environment and family. It takes a great level of quietness and serenity to hear Yahweh’s voice of direction. Yahweh’s voice of direction is often a still small voice that sounds in your spirit and you are likely to miss it if you are rowdy in your spirit and if your environment is not serene. If divine direction is your quest, then you must seek to maintain a quiet spirit and environment. You can engage in activities that can quiet your spirit and bring it to the state of tranquillity. In Isaiah 14:7, the Word says, ‘The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet: they break forth into singing.’ Singing spiritual songs quiets your spirit. If you are agitated, then separate yourself and begin to sing to the Lord. Spiritual songs relaxes your spirit and even your soul and body, bringing you to a complete state of quietness.

Isaiah 30:29 says, ‘Ye shall have a song, as in the night when a holy solemnity is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goeth with a pipe to come into the mountain of the Lord, to the mighty One of Israel.’ You see you need gladness of heart to come into the mountain of the Lord and at that mountain you can be quiet to receive the still small voice. All these are interrelated. Isaiah 30:30 says, ‘And the Lord shall cause his glorious voice to be heard, and shall shew the lighting down of his arm, with the indignation of his anger, and with the flame of a devouring fire, with scattering, and tempest, and hailstones.’ Quietness of the spirit is also a strengthener. You need strength in the spirit to wait to hear the still small voice. Isaiah 30:15 says, ‘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.’ Quietness in the spirit strengthens you.

In I Thessalonians 4:11, Apostle Paul admonishes us to study to be quiet. So you can study to be quiet. That talks about practising to be quiet. Most times, it may just involve speaking in the tongues of the spirit just to quiet your spirit. Study to be quiet and to maintain quietness. It is an asset in the school of divine direction. I Peter 3:4 says that a meek and quiet spirit is of a great price before our Yahweh. He values a meek and quiet spirit because it is the atmosphere where He can easily pass instructions and information. I admonish you today to invest into acquiring and maintaining a quiet spirit. Selah!

REMEMBER: A quiet spirit is the atmosphere that can hear the still small voice of the Holy Spirit.

PRAYER: Dear Father, thank You for Your Word to me today. I ask for the grace to do the things that ensures a quiet spirit and environment around me always in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

PROPHETIC RELEASE: I decree peace within and around you today in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
