Truly God is good to
Israel, to such as are pure in heart - Psalm 73:1.
Our God is good to all who are pure in heart.
God wants us to seek Him with whole heart. Blessed are those who keep His
testimonies, Who seek Him with the whole heart - Psalm 119:2. We can see God when
our heart is pure and we are blessed. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they
shall see God - Mathew 5:8. A good man out of the good treasure of his heart
brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings
forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks - Luke 6:45.
We should guard our heart as good things we
store in heart will bring good and evil things we store in heart will bring
evil. The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked -
Jeremiah 17:9. For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts,
adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit,
lewdness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within and
defile a man - Mark 7:21-23.
The Lord cannot hear
us if we have iniquity in our heart. If I regard iniquity in my heart, The Lord
will not hear - Psalm 66:18. These people draw near to Me with their mouth, And
honor Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me - Mathew 15:8. Let us
honor God with a pure heart. Who may ascend into the hill of the Lord? Or who
may stand in His holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart – Psalm 24:3.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, Create in us a
pure heart and renew a steadfast spirit within us. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
