“Silent Salvation”

Psalm 62:1
Truly my soul silently waits for God;
From Him comes my salvation. (NKJ)

A truly silent soul is one that confidently puts its faith in God alone, for it is only God who provides all the essentials for life (Proverbs 8:35). It is only the presence of our merciful and gracious Almighty God that can awe our hearts into quiet submission, for there is no better place to find a much needed rest and the true peace that brings comfort to our eternal souls. There is an old proverb that has stood the test of time which tells us, “Speech is silver but silence is gold”. What a profound and simple truth this is, for there is nothing more meaningful in this hectic world that waits for no one, than the silent patience of God’s children. Charles Spurgeon, one of the world’s greatest Christian theologians, explained it this way: “It is an eminent work of grace to bring down the will and subdue the affections so that the mind lies before the Lord like the sea beneath the wind, ready to be moved by every breath of His mouth.” It is when you quiet your heart and wait patiently for God that you will hear His small still voice leading you in the only direction that will bring you close to Him, where He can protect and provide for you during your entire life-journey (Revelation 3:20). There is absolutely nothing of this world that is able to offer you the lasting salvation that your soul longs for. Only our Lord and God, Jesus Christ, has that ability. When your faith in God is both true and silent you can actually feel the gift of salvation in your entire being; that is, the promises of God that you are so eagerly waiting for. Salvation can only come from one source, my friends, and that is from our omnipotent Creator. The world has created an onslaught of temporary solutions to sustain your earthly life—ones that will ease your fear for a while and carry you through, but in the end this world cannot save you from an eternity of darkness, forever separated from the Light that brings forth eternal life—the King of kings, the Lord of lords; your personal Creator and Savior, Christ Jesus. No manmade god or anything else in all of creation has a better offer for salvation, and when you receive your silent salvation from the Lord you can hold it tightly in your heart every moment of the day and sleep peacefully through the night because of its heavenly protection!

A Whisper of Hope
Quiet your heart, My child…and you will hear My voice calling you to Myself, for there is no One more capable a Provider than I. When you walk through this life-journey with Me you can be sure that I will always be with you providing the Truth and the Way to an everlasting life with Me—a life that exceeds anything you can possibly imagine. Be patient, My child, and quietly wait for salvation, which I personally paid for with My blood.

Proverbs 8:35
For whoever finds Me finds life, and obtains favor from the LORD. (NKJ)

Revelation 3:20
Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. (NKJ)

Acts 4:12
“Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” (NKJ)
