Bible Verse of The Day – 9-26-24

Proverbs 4:23 (NKJV) 23 Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life.

To keep our heart also means to watch over, cultivate, and protect it.

What are we protecting it from?

From the things that will pull us down, or draw us away from God, or things that will try to come in and take root.

Or maybe they are already there and need to be rooted out.

When we become a believer, our heart needs a lot of attention because the Bible says that the heart is desperately wicked.

Jeremiah 17:9 (NKJV 9 “The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it?

We need to uproot and clean out the things that cannot stay; the deceit and wickedness.

What is it today that is keeping us from walking a closer walk with God?

Is it the old habits keeping us on the fence? You know; those things that have been part of us for some time, but we know they must go.

The issues of life come from our very own heart.

What we love will rule us! Let it be God!
