Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.
Proverbs 4:23
We have to keep guard over the entrance of our heart and allow only that which builds us up. What corrupts our heart is to stay out.If we let in ungodly things, We become ungodly. So be careful in letting in godly things.If your heart is full of God’s word, you are storing good things
As a follower of Christ all we need to do is set our hearts right with God. As we are the temple of the Holy Spirit, we know that Holy Spirit will live inside of us. So, all we need to do is to obey the voice of the Holy Spirit. When we obey the Holy Spirit that very right moment, we are leading a Holy life.
When your heart is right and pure you can obey God’s word and apply it in your life. Constantly monitor what is in your heart and eliminate what is not godly. That is why psalmist prays in Psalms 139:23,24 Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting..
“Psalms 51:10 Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
As the Scripture says in John 14:15 “If you love Me, keep My commandments.
1John 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome.
Here scripture says that His commandments are not burdensome. The best way to guard our hearts is to fill our hearts with the Word of God.
For the LORD does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.” 1 sam 16:7
Be careful of what you see and be careful of what you receive. Turn to God with all your heart. God is asking you to return to Him. Are you will to go to the Lord?
If you are willing surely God will change your heart and He is willing to give us a new heart and renew right Spirit within us.
A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of. Luke 6:45
Let us Pray
Father, I come to you today and I ask for the forgiveness for all the sins that I have committed willingly. But right from this moment I want to return to you with all my heart and I want to set my heart right with you Lord. Thank you, Lord, for giving me a new heart.
In Jesus name
Amen.
