    Is your heart and life being directed by the Lord, or are you the director? Do you care about others who still need to hear the good news about Jesus? Paul addresses these issues with encouraging words.

    The God-Directed Heart 2 Thessalonians 3:1-5 Finally, brothers, pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly and be honored, just as it was with you. 2 And pray that we may be delivered from wicked and evil men, for not everyone has faith. 3 But the Lord is faithful, and he will ...read more

     | 10,048 views

    For the Christian, purity ought to be more precious than life, for without purity we can never really have life. If we are going to enjoy the blessings of God in this life and in the one to come, possessing a pure heart is not an optional quality.

    BLESSED ARE THE PURE IN HEART Study Text: Matthew 5: 8 Introduction: - The heart is used metaphorically to signify the inner person – the heart is the control centre of a man’s mind, emotions and will. It is our invisible innermost being which shapes our lives, attitudes, convictions, ...read more

    If we have been tempted to give up, to run away from our problems, then this is the psalm for us. Most of us have been where David was in this psalm—hard pressed by circumstances that are partly our own making but which have gotten beyond our control.

    Because God has made us righteous in Christ, He expects us to live righteously or with right behavior. Such behavior is the outward manifestation of the inward transformation, & the only sure proof that such inner transformation has taken place.

    Matters of the Heart Series COLOSSIANS 3: 12-17 “A HEART FULL OF GRACE” In our text the Bible describes what God expects of the believer in response to what He has done for us by His Amazing Grace.

    The classic painting and the familiar verse can teach us much about an intimate relationship with Christ. Our verse offers Christ’s solution to a church that has everything except what matters.

    Your Heart's Desire

    Contributed by Jon Lipka on Jun 17, 2012
     | 9,821 views

    Having the desire of our hearts rightly aligned with God is critical, for God will eventual grant it; if we have prepared our hearts through constant training to receive God, we have a heavenly reward, but it we have prepared it to reject God,our payment

    You know when you ask—nay, beg—God to do something or give something to you… Have you ever the request denied, and found out that what God refused, what you desired so badly, ultimately would have been harmful to you? Not everything we desire is wholly aligned with God’s ...read more

    A Mouth And Heart Matter

     | 6,129 views

    Jesus Christ taught that the path to heaven was very narrow and very few find it as many misguidedly choose to travel wrong paths. The bottom line is that salvation is a matter of the mouth and heart.

    A Mouth and Heart Matter Romans 10:1-13 The Philippian jailer asked in Acts 16, “What must I do to be saved?” Another way of asking this question is, “How do I get to go to heaven?” When people are asked this question a myriad of answers pour forth. Jesus Christ taught that ...read more

     | 5,072 views

    God is concerned with the condition of our heart. We are to seek purity of heart in two ways: (1) be right, and (2) be true. Our words and deeds must be in sync with our heart.

    Noticed Jesus did not say “Blessed are the pure…” which is correct too. • But He said, “Blessed are the pure IN HEART.” The emphasis is right. • Man concerns the outward – we want to look good, to make an impression. • We need to place more emphasis on what is unseen – the attitudes of our ...read more
