READ: Proverbs 17:28

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Chronicles 6-7, John 8:21-59
MESSAGE:
An inflated balloon whose mouth is wide open will lose all the air inside. If you don’t learn to shut your mouth, it will remain the point of leakage in your life. Some teenagers have talked their way into trouble. If you talk too much, you will mistakenly divulge sensitive information to a wrong fellow who will later use it against you.
A popular saying goes: empty barrel makes the loudest noise. People who speak so many words usually say meaningless or sinful things. You don’t have to contribute to every matter being discussed in your presence unless your opinion is sought. Even when your opinion is sought, be wise enough to know when to speak and when to be quiet. Learn to mind your business. Learn to be quiet. When you are quiet and free of any thought, your mind will be receptive to God’s word. I like my quiet space because that’s when God talks to me more. Talking too much will not make you sensitive to the Holy Spirit.
KEY POINT:
Even a fool will be called wise when he is quiet.
HYMN: GOD GIVE US CHRISTIAN HOMES
- God give us Christian homes,
Homes where the Bible is loved and taught,
Homes where the Master’s will is sought,
Homes crowned with beauty Thy love has wrought;
God give us Christian homes,
God give us Christian homes! - God give us Christian homes,
Homes where the father is true and strong,
Homes that are free from the blight of wrong,
Homes that are joyous with love and song;
God give us Christian homes,
God give us Christian homes! - God give us Christian homes,
Homes where the mother in queenly quest,
Strives to show others Thy way is best,
Homes where the Lord is an honoured guest;
God give us Christian homes,
God give us Christian homes! - God give us Christian homes,
Homes where the children are led to know,
Christ in His beauty who loves them so,
Homes where the altar fires burn and glow;
God give us Christian homes;
God give us Christian homes!
