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!!!

The Quarry Site Experience

Have you ever visited a quarry site and considered the process the rocks are subjected to before they become dressed stones to be used? If the stones could talk they will have a story to tell about their experiences.  As children of God we go through diverse experiences and we wonder if we will indeed survive them. Sometimes we wonder why our gracious and compassionate Father would allow such to befall us considering who we are in Him and what we are doing in His vineyard.  The Scripture that should readily come to our minds in such circumstances is God’s assurance when He said: “I will be with you when you pass through the waters, and when you pass through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. You will not be scorched when you walk through the fire and the flame will not burn you ” (Isaiah 43:2). This Scripture assures us that through the experiences of flames and waters, God is always by our side to see us through.  Thus, it is necessary for us to go through the...

Daily Walk With The LORD

       As we await the imminent return of the LORD Jesus Christ, we enter a time of great exposure and blessing. All that had been hidden will be revealed, all that had been a lie will be exposed, and those who can discern these things and make adjustments to their lives will be greatly blessed in this time!        As the Church Age draws to a close, we see and understand the Scriptures more clearly by the Help of the Holy Spirit, as we see Scriptures literary play out before our eyes. These are the times we must strengthen our resolve to serve Him more dearly and follow Him more closely. Failure to do this is to fall into all manner of errors orchestrated by the devil through his agents to derail as many from the path of righteousness and eternal life in Christ Jesus.         Many strange but carefully crafted teachings are flooding the pulpits and airwaves to distract, confuse and steal the hearts of children of God from...

But You Did Not Learn Christ In This Way

       I remember meeting a man of God in his office after the Sunday Services in his Church. I, like many others that day needed a few minutes with him. I was there at the instruction of the LORD to deliver a message. As we were talking, one of his Church workers came in and gave him a note. His face lit up, and he was very excited. I saw that there were sets of numbers written. I thought the numbers represented those who gave their lives to Christ, because many came out during the Altar Call to give and rededicate their lives to the LORD Jesus Christ. No! Apparently, they represent the number of people in attendance at each of the three services with the corresponding money collections realised.         They were not concerned about the souls that came out hungry for God! I was saddened by their excitement. They were not excited about the souls that came into the Kingdom of God; rather, they were rejoicing about their egos, ranks and bank a...
