DAY 2 OF 3

There’s A Time For Everything.


“To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:” Ecclesiastes‬ ‭3:1‬ ‭KJV‬‬


There’s a time for everything. Discern and understand the season. Ask God for wisdom to understand when it’s time to speak and when it’s time to refrain from speaking. Ecclesiastes‬ ‭3:7‬ ‭KJV‬‬ declares, “..There’s a time to keep silence, and a time to speak.” Seek God and ask Him for the wisdom to speak and the grace to communicate gracefully. James‬ ‭1:5‬ ‭KJV‬‬ declares, “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.” God gives wisdom freely. It’s your choice to seek God and apply His Wisdom to your life. Wisdom is a choice. Discretion is a choice. Choosing to refrain your words is a disciplined decision. 


Proverbs‬ ‭26:4‬ ‭NLT‬‬ declares, “Don’t answer the foolish arguments of fools, or you will become as foolish as they are.” The foolish will try to pull you into a debate or argument. Choose not to engage with fools. Let your words be seasoned with love, wisdom and grace. Ephesians‬ ‭4:29‬ ‭KJV‬‬ declares, “Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.”
