The Bible strongly condemns gossip, with verses in Proverbs
And other books warning against spreading secrets, stirring up strife, and damaging relationships through idle talk.
Here are some key verses on gossip:
~Proverbs 11:13:
"A gossip betrays a secret, but a trustworthy person keeps a secret."
~Proverbs 16:28:
"A perverse person stirs up conflict, and a gossip separates close friends."
~Proverbs 17:9:
"Whoever covers an offense promotes love, but whoever repeats a matter separates close friends."
~Proverbs 20:19:
"A gossip betrays a confidence; so avoid anyone who talks too much."
~Proverbs 26:20:
"Without wood a fire goes out; without gossip a quarrel dies down."
~1 Timothy 5:13:
"And besides they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house, and not only idle but also gossips and busybodies, saying things which they ought not."
~Ephesians 4:29:
"Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear."
~James 4:11:
"Do not speak evil of one another, brothers."
~2 Corinthians 12:20:
"For I fear that perhaps when I come, I may find you not as I wish, and that you may find me not as you wish; that perhaps there may be quarreling, jealousy, anger, selfishness, slander, gossip, conceit, unrest."
~Psalm 34:13:
"Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking deceit."
~Psalm 101:7:
"I will not tolerate a wicked person in my sight; I will not allow a traitor to stay near me."

Gossip is a counterfeit form of intimacy that bonds people over brokenness rather than truth. But what does the Bible say about Gossip?
For I fear, lest, when I come, I shall not find you as I would, and that I shall be found unto you as ye would not: lest there be debates, envyings, wraths, strifes, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, tumults;

Oh Father, our Abba, we lift up the lost in our circles of family and friends. You know them by name even if we do not speak them out loud for you know all things. Father you have the very hairs on our heads numbered and nothing is too great for you. Father we pray that your Holy Spirit would be at work watering the seeds that we have planted. There's nothing on this earth more important than their salvation. Please Father, use us when needed and help us to seek after those who are lost just as you sought each of us. Father may your Holy Spirit be at work in the background of their lives working all things out that will lead to their saving knowledge of your precious Son Jesus! Lord we know that this prayer is prayed in your will and that you will save them in your time. Help us Lord to be bold Esthers and Josephs and use us for such a time as this. Father may we glorify your most precious and holy name in all that we say and do this day. In Christ's mighty name I pray. Amen! โค๏ธ

Dr. Ron Rhodes: DRAWING NEAR TO GOD:
A JOURNEY INTO HIS PRESENCE
There is no greater joy, no deeper peace, than experiencing the nearness of God. We were created for fellowship with Him โ to walk closely with our Creator, and to delight in His presence. Yet, in the noise of life, it is easy to drift. Distractions, worries, and even our own shortcomings can create a sense of distance between us and God. But Scripture assures us of a beautiful truth: When we take a step toward Him, He draws near to us.
THE INVITATION TO DRAW NEAR
โCome near to God and He will come near to you.โ โJames 4:8
This is not a passive promise. It is an invitation โ one that requires action on our part. Drawing near to God is not about following religious routines or rituals or ceremonies; it is simply about pursuing Him with a sincere heart. Just as a loving father eagerly embraces a child who runs to him, so our heavenly Father moves toward us when we take steps of faith in His direction.
The journey toward God begins with a single step of faith. You can take that step right now by praying:
โHeavenly Father, by faith, I draw near to You this very moment. My heart longs to be close to You today. You have promised that if I come near to You, You will come near to me. So here I am, Lord โ seeking, trusting, and inviting Your presence into my life. Draw near to me as I reach out for You. In Jesusโ name, Amen.โ
KEEP IT SIMPLE: A CHILDLIKE FAITH
Sometimes, we make closeness to God more complicated than it needs to be. We overanalyze, overthink, and burden ourselves with unnecessary questions: Am I doing this right? Is my faith strong enough? What if I donโt feel anything? But Jesus didnโt tell us to approach God by first requiring that all our questions get answered โ He simply told us to โbecome like little childrenโ (Matthew 18:3).
Children donโt analyze love; they simply receive it. They donโt question whether their parents will care for them tomorrow; they simply rest in the security of today. A childlike faith involves waking up each day with a heart full of wonder, knowing that God is good and is in control, that He is near, and that He will take care of you โ just as a child trusts their parent without questioning how their needs will be met. That is the kind of faith God desires โ a trust that doesnโt get lost in theological complexity and rituals but simply believes.
My friends, you donโt need to have all the answers to draw near to God. You just need to come. Speak to Him with honesty. Rest in His love. Trust that He is near, even when you donโt necessarily feel it at first.
Donโt get me wrong โ seeking answers to questions is a good thing (2 Timothy 3:16-17; Acts 17:11; Psalm 119:105). But donโt make the acquiring of answers a prerequisite for drawing near to God. Come to Him JUST AS YOU ARE (Matthew 11:28; Isaiah 55:1; Ephesians 2:13).
THE PROMISE OF HIS NEARNESS
If you have felt distant from Him, take heart โ He has not moved. He is waiting, longing for you to draw close. The door is open. The invitation is extended. Step into His presence, and you will find a love more intimate, a peace more profound, and a joy more complete than anything this world could ever offer.
โYou will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart.โ โJeremiah 29:13
Draw near to Him today.
He is nearer than you think.

โจ๏ธDwelling in the Bibleโจ๏ธ
In the Bible, "dwelling" means to live in or abide in a place, or to direct one's attention to something.
It can also mean to have a relationship with God.
~Psalm 27:4
"Dwell in the house of the Lord" and direct attention to the beauty of God
~Psalm 91:1
"He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty"
~Psalm 90:1
"Lord you have been our Dwelling Place throughout all generations"
~Psalm 23:6
"Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever"
