Guard Your Heart

Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it - Proverbs 4:23.

             We need to guard our heart as everything we do flows from our heart. For as he thinks in his heart, so is he - Proverbs 23:7. The good person out of the good treasure of his heart produces good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure produces evil, for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks - Luke 6:45. 

              When God's word is in our heart, it will instruct our heart to do right things. I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you - Psalm 119:1. I will praise the Lord, who counsels me; even at night my heart instructs me - Psalm 16:7.

             Let us guard our heart by the word of God. May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer - Psalm 19:14. Lord, who may abide in Your tabernacle? Who may dwell in Your holy hill? He who walks uprightly, And works righteousness, And speaks the truth in his heart - Psalm 15:1, 2.                                                                  

PRAYER: Dear Lord, Help us to guard our heart by Your Word as everything we do flow from it. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
