The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life, but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.
Proverbs 10:11 CSB
INTRODUCTION
And He got up and [sternly] rebuked the wind and said to the sea, ‘Hush, be still (muzzled)!’ And the wind died down [as if it had grown weary] and there was [at once] a great calm [a perfect peacefulness].
(Mark 4:39 AMP)
Muzzled. At first glance, this term can be very offensive to some because it is often related to an animal. However, in this scripture, we see it related to being still.
In this scripture, Jesus instructed his disciples to get into a boat, and head across the ocean to the other side. After saying this, Jesus proceeded to the bottom of the boat, grabbed a cushion, laid down, and went to sleep. Moments later the weather conditions changed, and the disciples knew that they were not going to make it to the other side. Therefore, in a panic, they woke up Jesus, and the verse above was Jesus’ response to the storm.
You will come to seasons in your life where God will instruct you to do something but fails to mention the storm that you will encounter along the way of fulfilling His will. You will find yourself responding to your storm like the disciples did; by fighting for your life, until you realize that this storm is out of your league—that is, if you fight from a carnal disposition.
The moment you realize the storm is too strong for you, you turn to Jesus. As He did for His disciples, Jesus will speak to your noisy and boisterous surroundings, and command it to be still—or muzzled.
Then, Jesus turned to His disciples and asked why they were afraid. If they would have operated in faith, then they could have addressed their surroundings themselves.
Jesus was speaking directly to their spirit man and the authority they carried as His disciples. Their surroundings were out of control, but they had the power to muzzle the turbulence.
We are standing in a time where our surroundings seem a little out of whack, but even in this, our identity in Christ has not changed. We have the power to take dominion over every bit of turbulence, yet we still see many who are compromising their authority by speaking according to what they see. When the disciples approached Jesus, they didn’t come in faith; instead they only addressed what they saw and felt. Don’t forget—Jesus was on the same boat. I am sure He felt the same turbulence His disciples felt, yet He chose to rest.
When the disciples came to Jesus, they spoke according to the effects of the storm. Additionally, they accepted the storm’s outcome. They said:
...'Teacher! Don’t you care that we’re going to die?’
(Mark 4:38 CSB)
The disciples accepted the threat that the storm brought. They bowed to the storm and forgot Jesus’ initial instruction. The Word of the Lord was to travel to the other side, however when the storm manifested, the disciples accepted death. Their destination was promised to them. It was sure; however, they allowed the storm to alter their vision.
Have you bowed to your storm? If you have, then no condemnation. Simply remind yourself of the Word of the Lord over your life. Reclaim your authority and speak according to the Word of the Lord.
Your words have power. What you speak will manifest. It can either birth God’s Word over your life, or delay (even cancel) what is promised to you.
With all that is taking place in our world today, there are times when I had the desire to speak but Holy Spirit would say, Hush Girl.
I am not talking about mindless rambling; I am talking about speaking on subjects and topics that were directly connected to who I am.
So, who am I?
I am young, black, and an unmarried Christian woman living in a culture that is very opinionated. Freedom of speech has never been more prevalent. Thoughts of people all over the world are expressed every second. Household conversations have now become the world’s business. Sacredness and confidentiality are scarce and lost within the busyness of the world. Therefore, genuine and authentic friendships are hard to find. Values and morals among people are meager because of what is released out of the mouths of people. Your words create your environment. The environment that we are in today is a result of the words that society has released.
I am young, black, and an unmarried Christian woman who is often misunderstood because not only do I practice celibacy, but I also practice silence. Silence is an art. It is a task. It is a discipline that is only developed through continued self-denial of what you desire to do. Take note: if you do what you desire to do, it will only satisfy you temporarily; however, the consequences are eternal.
It is hard to tame your tongue in a society where there are so many ways to express yourself! You can text, post, shoot a video, post a picture, record a podcast, start a blog/vlog, or even write a book. Even when writing a book, I am restrained from writing what would probably make me feel good because my purpose is always before me. Purpose is always on my mind. People who are wise in what they say have a clear vision of their purpose. They also realize
