GUARD, PROTECT, AND KEEP YOUR HEART ❤️

Proverbs 4:23 New King James Version
23 Keep your heart with all diligence,
For out of it spring the issues of life.

GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA MY DEAR FRIENDS!!!
You know guys, I can completely relate to what Karen Huang was saying in this morning's devotional about how sin does begin in the heart. In particular, I could relate to what she was going through when it came to holding onto bitterness and hatred towards someone, because I've been there too. I've also experienced people who twist and distort what it means to forgive, and try to use buzzwords like “you're being bitter”, “don't dwell on it”, “you're dwelling on it” to get you to “forgive and forget” what happened to you. These are among the many trite, useless, and outright un-Christlike statements I was exposed to, until I really learned what it meant to forgive. Until I learned to realize that I was willing to give God these things, to help me process the emotions that I was experiencing in a way that honored Him, so that I could truly heal.

I think that's why I so appreciate these questions from this morning’s devotional, and I'd like to share them with you tonight. Please read these questions carefully, and I pray that God will challenge you through them.

Jesus said that the sin in our heart defiles us. What “evil thoughts” might be defiling your heart?

How can you pray regarding this matter?

Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God showed me from this passage of scripture, through this vlog I’d like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you will help you see how important it is to not just guard your heart, but ask God to help you process the emotions you experience, especially the negative ones, in a way that honors Him. Most of all, I pray that it'll help you to make sure that you're guarding your heart against the things that can defile it from within when it comes to sin. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn how you can guard and keep your heart from this sin! 😊

So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I pray that if you have been wounded in your life by someone emotionally, whether it's an unkind word, or you have been violated by them on a physical and emotional level, that you first and foremost get help for what happened to you, so that you can process all the emotions that you're feeling in a way that honors God. I also urge everyone out there, to guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. To keep your hearts secure and protected from Satan’s machinations, to try to cause you to sin. Ask God every day to help you do what Psalm 139:23-24 state, ask God to examine your heart every day, so that there is no sin that will keep you from a right relationship with Him.

UNTIL MONDAY EVERYONE:

HAVE A PEACEFUL, SWEET, AND BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!
