DATE: WEDNESDAY JANUARY 27

TOPIC: YOU AND YOUR HEART

TEXT:  Psalm 58:2-3

Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh the violence of your hands in the earth.  The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.

KEY VERSE: Proverbs 4:23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. 

There's something you need to understand about your heart. You are a complete system and your heart is part of that system. The heart in you is like the engine in a vehicle. The vehicle has various parts such as the tyre, the windscreen, lights and all but it also has an engine. 

The various parts of the vehicle are all built into the body. Of all the body parts, the engine can be singled out and treated as the life of the car. If the engine is in sound condition, the whole vehicle is sound and it can take you anywhere you are going. 

So the car engine matters a lot. But when we look at different vehicles, engines differ in grades and capacities. Some engines are lower in strength than others. But you can fortify it. You can renew it. You can upgrade it. In fact, the engine can be replaced.

Now, I want you to look at yourself. You have your heart like the engine of a car. You can work on your heart. God can also work on your heart. The devil can work on your heart. Again, I want you to understand that you can influence your heart.

 Human beings around you can also influence your heart. See what the scripture says concerning the heart in today’s key verse: “Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” The heart must be kept with diligence because out of it are the issues of life. 

It is like the engine that pumps fuel and combusts to enable the vehicle move. The heart produces the things that regulate the man’s conduct in life. That scripture says, “Keep your heart.” It is like this scripture is speaking to somebody and it is making the person know that the heart can be controlled by him. 

Again, it says, “With all diligence.”  It means that person can exert energy by himself to control the heart. That person can do something to keep the heart. We can see that the scripture separates you from your heart. You can keep your heart under your control. You can be master over your heart.

Thought for the day: The condition of your heart is the condition of your life. 

Song for the day: Come and make my heart Your home, come and be….

Bible reading for the day: Exodus 13-15; Matthew 19:1-15

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
