Good Morning Precious and Dearly Loved Child of Our Abba
Father!
“Above all else, guard your heart, for from it flow the
issues of life.” Proverbs 4:23.
King James Version says, “Keep thy heart with all diligence…” We live in a world filled with evil,
darkness, sickness, disease, fear, malice, hatred, a deep sense of lack in all
areas…. The goal is to not let any of
this inside of our hearts, even though we live in environment surrounded and
filled by all this darkness. We are to
guard what we let into our heart.
No one else can do
this for you, not even God or the Holy Spirit!
You are the guard of your own heart, by the power of the Holy
Spirit. He supplies the power and Love,
but you decide on what goes in and stays in!
You have been given the Gift of a new heart, from God, but if you allow
darkness into your innermost being, there will be a veil over your new
heart. You cannot control what
happens around you, but you must control what goes and stays inside of your
heart. This is our responsibility.
Darkness, fear,
condemnation, lack exists EVERYWHERE, but we are to be on guard and not let
this junk into the heart! Businesses
hire security guards so intruders cannot enter into buildings uninvited. People have guard dogs and body guards to
protect themselves from unwanted attacks.
You are the guard on duty of your own heart! The best way to guard your own heart, is to
fill it up to overflowing with the Joy, Love, Glory, and Presence of the
Father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit! As
you SET your heart and mind on things above, on the heavenly realities and not
on worldly things, you are guarding your heart!
While we live in the world, we are to have our hearts SET on
the heavenly realities, and not let the darkness, fear, condemnation… into our
heart! The best way to prevent intruders
into your heart is to fill it up, to accept the inward continual flow of the
Father’s Love, and set your heart and mind there! In this case, the best defense, is a potent
and very alive offense of the Father’s Love being poured into your heart by
Holy Spirit!
This is how Jesus
endured the Cross. “For the JOY SET
before Him, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the Throne of
God. Consider Him who endured such opposition
from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.” Hebrews
12:2-3. Jesus had His
heart SET on the Joy before Him, this Joy was being with His Father and being
with all of His children perfected in heaven with Him for eternity!
Earthly life delivers
many hurtful, seemingly deadly blows on a constant basis, because the enemy’s
mission is to steal, kill, destroy and devour you because he is enraged at you. Jesus endured the attack of the enemy on His
life for you, by setting His heart and mind on the Joy of the heavenly
realities!!!
How about you? Are
you ready to do life the way that Jesus demonstrated and SET your heart and
mind on the Joy and Love of the heavenly realities even during the deceitful
attacks of the enemy? As you open your
heart to the Joy and Love that is in your new heart and that is always being
poured by the Father through the Holy Spirit, you are doing a great job at
guarding your heart! So above all else,
guard your precious new heart that has been given to you! The
issues of your life will the fullness of His Love and Joy! Ready for these new issues flowing out from
your new heart? SHALOM!!!!!!!
