It is not every divine instruction given specifically to you
that you share with everyone and put in the public domain.
Elisha instructed his servant Gehazi not to say a word to anyone; not even to respond to anyone’s greeting. Rather, he should go straight to the child of the woman of Shunem and lay Elisha’s staff on the face of the child. Gehazi did as instructed. Please read 2nd Kings Chapter 4 verses 29 to 31. The wisdom herein is to accomplish divine purpose before speaking out.
The widow of the indebted prophet was asked to shut the door
behind her as she processed and bottled the oil into the numerous borrowed
vessels. Please read 2nd Kings Chapter 4 verse 7. In essence, finish
processing before speaking out; in point of fact you speak to advertise and
sell; not to broadcast the production processes God asked you to do in secret.
Nehemiah did not broadcast what God commanded him to do to
anyone; not even when he went out at night to inspect the broken down walls and
gates of Jerusalem which were burned with fire. He kept mum. It was only when
Nehemiah and his men started building that people knew why Nehemiah was in
Jerusalem. Please read Nehemiah Chapter 2 verses 11 to 20.
The Bible records that Mary kept everything the wise men
told her and Joseph to her chest. She did not reveal them to anyone. Please
read Luke Chapter 2 verses 1 to 9.
Esther kept the secret of her race to her chest until the
appropriate time.
Jechobed successfully hid her son Moses from not only Pharaoh and his children murdering army but also her neighbors. She kept sealed lips and even when she strategized on dropping Moses off at the river, she kept sealed lips. Only Miriam, also schooled in keeping secrets was privy to what she was doing which explain why Jechobed took Miriam with her to the river. Jechobed’s discreet use of her tongue also helped to keep her son safe.
Beloved, business is warfare.
This calls for discretion sometimes so that your competition does not take
undue advantage of your lack of discretion concerning source of supplies,
access to clients and missionary customers. The more discreet you are, the
safer your business will be.
May God Who is always rich in mercy and wants the best for you and your business grant you the requisite wisdom to be discreet about business secrets in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Shalom.
