Guarding your Heart
PROVERBS 4:20-24
20 MY son attend to my words; incline thy ear unto my sayings.
21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thy heart.
22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.
23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.
24 Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee.
Beloved, our lives would be so much different in a more dynamic and positive direction if only we could take the words of admonition in the above Scriptures. The heart symbolises our thought life, our formative and decisive mind. It is where thoughts and processes take place. It is the core value of your whole being.
The things you are feeding your eyes with and what you listen to; all have a way of formating your thought life. ...For out of thy heart are the issues of life. In verse 10 of the the same chapter, it says:
Hear O my son, and receive my sayings: and the years of thy life shall be many.
The only sure proof way to truly guard your heart, is by reading and hearing the sayings of God as revealed in the Scriptures. The word of God helps to build your faith. By meditating on God words and claiming His promises; you have full control over the happening around you.
I pray for you that as you guard your heart by meditating on God's word, it will be health to your flesh and many years to your life in Jesus' name... (AMEN!)
