Silence is defined as the absence of sound; stillness. I watched a movie the other day called Quiet Place: Day One. It is the third movie in the Quiet Place trilogy.

It is a dimension in the spirit where you can receive revelation from the throne of God. During periods of silence, you learn how to calm your spirit and discern what is happening in the spirit Read More
