The Lord had me ministering to this young man off and on for a few years he dance around everything the Lord have me tell him he have the gift of gab i told him i know you have the gift of gab now is not the time for that now is the time for you to listen and he got upset i wasn’t trying to make him upset. This is what i know when a person is not listening to the Lord. They won’t listen to us speaking to them about the Lord i bowed out gracefully at this point all i can do is pray for him I’m laying on my bed thinking about the conversations the Lord had me have with him, and i did a Bible study, is this is the message.

Conclusion
MATTHEW 7:6
“Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.
In my personal experience with spiritual ministry, I have found the message of Matthew 7:6 profoundly relevant when dealing with people who are not ready or willing to receive deeper truths. This verse cautions us against exposing sacred teachings to those who may not appreciate or value them, potentially leading to frustration or harm for both parties. I recall a time when I was ministering to someone who seemed very talkative and resistant to truly listening. Despite my efforts to share spiritual insights, he would often deflect or become upset when I encouraged him to hear more deeply. This taught me the importance of recognizing when someone’s heart is not open to receiving guidance, no matter how patiently it is offered. The symbolism of "pearls" as priceless wisdom and "swine" as those who do not recognize such value resonated deeply with me. It’s a reminder to exercise discernment — rather than forcing truths on unwilling ears, we must cautiously choose when and to whom we disclose our most treasured spiritual insights. Walking away does not mean giving up. It means preserving the sacred by not casting it in hostile or unappreciative environments. After withdrawing gracefully, continuing to pray for those individuals from a distance can be a powerful way to support their journey without causing strife. Ultimately, sharing spiritual wisdom requires balancing a compassionate desire to help with wise boundaries. This balance protects both the giver’s soul and the integrity of the message. I encourage anyone who feels called to minister or share profound insights to reflect on their audience’s readiness and respond accordingly. This approach leads to more fruitful and respectful exchanges on our spiritual paths.
