Guarding Your Heart 

Proverbs 4:23 Above all else guard your heart for it is the wellspring of life.

Matthew 5:8 Blessed are the pure in heart for they will see God.

The Word teaches us not to have a hard heart. The condition of our hearts will reflect our lives. It can reflect our health, our attitude and choices we make. If your heart is not in the right place you won’t be able to love. Love is about being compassionate , caring, and being able to serve and to reach out to others and thier needs. The foundation of God’s is love.

In the Bible Solomon used the word heart many times. Seventy times in Proverbs, twenty five times in Ecclesiastes, eleven times in Song of Solomon.

 

1 John 3:16 This is how we know what love is , Jesus Christ laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers.

Don’t allow yourself to live in a prison of hardness. Jesus set am example to us He always moved with compassion

Having true compassion will always move you to do something for others.

Don’t allow pride to control your heart, it will lead you to destruction

Proverbs 16:5 The Lord detests all the proud heart.

Guarding your heart is the core of a person’s thoughts, feelings, desires and choices that makes the person who he is.

1 Samuel 16:7 The Lord does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, the Lord looks at the heart.

What we fill our hearts will come out in our words and action.

Luke 6:45 The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks.

Spend time in God’s word . Pray and allow God to fill you with his love. Meditate on his word and focus on pleasing God, and the Holy Spirit will control your thoughts and actions. What comes out of our mouth will reflect a life that honors God. Guard your heart ,God will give you the strength through the power of the Holy Spirit to do all things well.

Psalm 51:10 Create in me a pure heart O God and renew a steadfast spirit within me .

1 Timothy 1:5 The goal of this command is love which comes from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.

Hebrews 10:22 Let us draw near to God with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water.

Matthew 5:8 Blessed are the pure in heart for they will see God.

Lord fill our hearts with your love. Let us be an example to others by walking in Your love.
