| Matters and conditioning of the heart |

We are responsible for keeping our heart: Prov. 4:23 "keep thy heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life".
He knows the secrets we keep in our heart: Heb.4:12 "He is a descerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart".
The law of God must remain in our heart: Ps. 37:31 "The law of his God is in his heart, none of his steps shall slide".
Our words are a mirrored reflection of our heart: Matt. 12:35 "o generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh".
We as sons of God are to be united in heart: " I urge you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree in what you say, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and in the same purpose".
Check the heart: Prov. 28:26 "He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool; but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered".
Now to hear the conclusion of the whole matter: The heart that we are speaking of is not the physical, blood pumping organ we find within our chest cavity, but it is the mind, will, emotions and conscience of man. God's acceptance of us is based on our heart condition (Prov. 3:5), He demands our whole heart (Ps. 119:34, 69) and whatsoever we do, do it whole heartily, as to the Lord and not unto men. (Col. 3:23) |

That's why we stay on the flo'........Bloop! It is important to watch what enters in, because it does damage the heart. Why eat ribs when you know it cause your blood pressure to go up? We set our ownselves up to be damned, because we leave our gates open. What are our gates? Our eyes, ears, and MOUF! These are instrumental in what happens in our mind, will, and emotion. If you notice where these gates are, they are all a part of the head, correct? Once it enters into the mind, it goes to the heart, and then the soul, which is where our heart is,the one God judges. Keep the gates closed, because everything we see, hear and say can damage us, as well as others. We are responsible for each other, and if I miss handle you, God will hold me accountable, and I refuse to be round tabled for what I could have controlled! Remember the fruit of the Spirit? Yep, you got it,lawless!
Erika, thank you! |
