Bible Verse of The Day – 7-9-18

Jeremiah 17:9-10 (NKJV) 9 “The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it? 10 I, the Lord, search the heart, I test the mind, Even to give every man according to his ways, According to the fruit of his doings.

As followers of Christ, it’s critically important that we check our heart from time to time and let God show us what’s in there.

Because our heart is hidden, it’s a place where secrets can dwell very safely. While this might seem like it’s OK, since it’s hidden away, it means that we can be hiding things that are not good.

It’s important that we’re honest with ourselves and willing to admit that we have things hidden in us that we need to give God access to, so He can help us root them out and get rid of them.

There are no secrets from God. He sees everything and knows everything. So if we think we’re hiding anything from Him by keeping it undercover, we’re only kidding ourselves.

And let’s be clear about something. We don’t necessarily need to be ashamed of what we’re hiding. We all deal with something.

The shameful part is when we know that something is there and we coddle it, cater to it and feed it, like a pet. But if we go to God with it and let Him help us with it, He will help us get free from it and show us how to avoid it in the future.

So, let’s let God in. Give Him access to our most secret place and most secret thoughts. We are literally only one step away from beginning to get free of those hidden things.

And once we surrender them to Him, they can no longer control us or torment us. Be free, in the name of Jesus!

Bible Verse of The Day – 5-24-18

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

No one but God truly knows our heart. He knows it inside and out. And this verse describes the state of every man’s heart.

It doesn’t sound very pretty, does it?

Although many may like to think that this type of heart is only in those people that show themselves by doing bad and evil things, it’s not the case.

And unless we understand this and accept it, we will never get to a place where God can help us.

This is the truth about our own heart, and we need to take it in and hear it personally.

Our hearts need healing, restoration, and purifying every day.

James 4:8 (NKJV) 8 Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.

Drawing close to God, and having a humble and repentant heart will help us take care of those things in our heart. His word will help us and He will draw near to us.

He will do a marvelous work on our hearts over time if we will let Him.

Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-6-18

Luke 23:21 (NKJV) 21 But they shouted, saying, “Crucify Him, crucify Him!”

Why? Why would people want to crucify a perfect, loving and kindhearted man, someone that they knew did wonderful and miraculous things?

Luke 7:22 (NKJV) 22 Jesus answered and said to them, “Go and tell John the things you have seen and heard: that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have the gospel preached to them.

These are the things Jesus was doing. These are the things that the religious leaders were threatened by, causing them to stir the people up to hate Him and want Him crucified.

Wow! How can this be? How can something so good be turned around and made to look bad?

It’s all about our hearts. Our hearts speak what is truly in us.

Matthew 15:19 (NKJV) 19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies.

For people to want to crucify a man that was doing such marvelous things, it shows us the power of the heart and what’s in it.

While on the cross, this same Man that they crucified cried out to His Father, “forgive them, for they do not know what they do”.

Luke 23:34 (NKJV) 34 Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.” And they divided His garments and cast lots.

Our heart can obstruct our vision and mind, causing us to make absurd decisions and judgments at times. We need Jesus and the change He brings to our hearts! He helps us to see things clearly in this world that we live in.

Ezekiel 36:26 (NKJV) 26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.

Bible Verse of The Day – 6-5-17

1 Samuel 16:7 (NKJV) 7 But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because I have refused him. For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”

God looks at our heart. This can be a life-changing revelation for so many people.

We tend to look at ourselves and others and judge by what we see. It’s a natural thing to do, since we can’t see the heart of a person unless we spend time with them and get to know them.

God chose David to be king over His people. Why? Because He knew David’s heart was set on pleasing Him. The Word says that David was a man after God’s own heart!

He could have chosen someone greater in stature. But stature doesn’t matter to God. Stature is just a physical attribute. It doesn’t make us who we are. Our heart and what’s in it makes us who we are.

What’s in our heart? When God looks at us, what does He see?

Does He see a heart that longs after Him? Or does He see a heart that is divided in its loyalties?

Only we can determine what our heart contains. Only we can decide where our loyalties lie.

Let us determine in our hearts to seek after God with everything in us. Then we will know without a doubt what God sees when He looks at our heart.
