How Healthy Is Your Heart?


Is your heart healthy? Does your heart need a cleansing? You have tried all the self-help books and even attended seminars but to no avail? Do you constantly find yourself think evil thoughts and you have done everything humanly possible but find yourself succumbing to these evil thoughts? It is as if you are in a constant battle with an evil force over the thoughts that come into your heart.  Jesus said in Mark 7:20-23 “…What comes out of a person - that defiles him. From within, out of people’s hearts, come evil thoughts, sexual immoralities, thefts, murders, adulteries, greed, evil actions, deceit, lewdness, stinginess, blasphemy, pride and foolishness. All these evil things come from within and defile a person.” Does what comes from your heart represent a picture of the above scenario? If so, then your heart will be described as ‘unhealthy’. Any unhealthy thing needs to be cleansed before it can be used. According to Hebrews 10:19-22, there is a need to enter into the Most Holy Place by drawing near to God with a sincere heart so that our hearts may be cleansed by the Blood of Jesus Christ and have our iniquities blotted out. You might declare, you have it covered! Friend, a physician cannot heal himself but needs to go to another physician to accurately diagnose the problem with him and offer a cure. Jesus Christ the Great Physician is saying that for your heart to be healed and healthy again, all you need is to humble yourself by having His word in your heart and have them written on your minds. Psalm 25:9 says “He leads the humble in what is right and teaches them His way.” All you need to do is come, draw near to Him, He will not only teach you, He will write His Word in your heart. The question now is: how far or near to Him are you? The more you draw near, the healthier your heart will be! Humble yourself and draw near to Jesus Christ, you will be pleasantly surprised!!!

You Are What Matters Most To Jesus Christ

 "When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to him and said, “I am God Almighty; Walk [habitually] before Me [with integrity, knowing that you are always in My presence], and be blameless and complete [in obedience to Me]" (Genesis 17:1, AMP).        A while back, I overheard a conversation between two young men; both were wondering how a person can be and remain holy in a world that daily encourages you to exhibit and enjoy every self-indulgent pleasure one desires. Of course, they knew the Scripture in Psalm 119:9-11, which describes how a young man can keep his way pure, but they feel it is increasingly becoming difficult to discern the way of the Lord from the world system. To them, many Pastors and children of God have been won over by the kingdom of darkness to subvert the principles of God as written in the Bible.           They were not wrong, in light of some of the teaching coming from the pulpits! The above ...

Finding True Love

         From the beginning of time, God Almighty has sought various means of communicating His thoughts and desires to humanity. Through the very things He has created around us, He clearly reveals His divine nature and our predestined purposes as the object of His love to those who care enough to pay attention.  His goal has always been to set men free from all that limits them from experiencing an abundant life. There is no doubt that the present life as we know it, with all its hurts, pains and heartbreak was never meant to be this way; indeed the enemy has done this.         Friends, if He created the earth with hidden and precious treasures, then how much more you? The enemy, on the other hand, has worked overtime to create things that bind, blind, limit, and ultimately stop us from fulfilling our God-given destinies. His most successful strategies are those which are subtle and appeal to our fleshly desires, just as...

The Perverted Love Of St Valentine's Day

         We live in a world where those who suppress the truth have the loudest voices. They are more persuasive in their arguments because their arguments sound logical and well-reasoned. However, the fact that an argument is loud and logical does not necessarily mean it is the truth. At the same time, the fact that an argument is loud and logical does not mean it is of God. So many claim they do not care where it originates from, but they agree with and have bought into its message. If that is your stance, then you need to hear this because what you believe and have bought into is a lie. Remember, ignorance is not bliss but a dangerous position to occupy as many ‘ignorants’ abound in hell!        The argument for celebrating St. Valentine's Day is loud and sounds logical but it is not the truth, nor is it of God! It is not of God because the love that Jesus Christ portrays carries within it the responsibility of self-sacrifice whilst that o...
