I'm not "certain" I understand the question, but if I do...

Click your mouse on the "eyeball" icon at the left of each unwanted layer in the Layers dialog dock. The eyeball will disappear and the layer will no longer show in the main image canvas window.

If you export your image as a .gif with all the layers except the ones you want to be visible turned off, only the ones you leave turned on will be visible in the exported image.

When exporting the .gif, change "Frame disposal where unspecified" to "one frame per layer (replace)". It's two different ways of rendering .gif and the other one can reduce the file size, but replace is the behaviour most people will expect. maybe it's worth thinking about if it should be defaulted in upcoming releases.
