FIRE SCRIPTURE: Mark 7:18-23 (KJV)
18 And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, it cannot defile him;
19 Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats?
20 And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.
21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:
23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:

MFM Devotional For Today 2022 MESSAGE:
Having treated so much about the heart of man in the last discourse, let us see how we can discipline our hearts and make it right with God.
God will enable us to do this, but it all starts with you and me. Take an inward look. What is in your heart? Is it filled with ungodly thoughts, negative imaginations, unhealthy cravings and desire and all such things that defile? The Spirit of God cannot dwell in such a place. Samson entertained immorality and he didn’t know that the power of God, the Holy Spirit, had left him.
Paul wrote, Can we continue in sin that grace should abound? God forbid”. This goes to confirm that God abhors sin and anything that defiles. The heart, as earlier stated is the source and power room for all of our feelings, thoughts, emotions and actions. Hence, it must be well guided and guarded.
Is your heart set on things above or things below? Where a man’s treasure is, there you will find his heart (Colossians.3:1-2). If you’re for Christ, your heart would be set on the things of God. The world and its vanities will pass away but those who love the Lord and do His will shall live (1 John 2:15-17).
A depraved heart and a sinful heart, if surrendered unto God, will experience the mercy of God that brings salvation. God will give you a new heart! Get ready to cry in repentance as David did in Psalm 51:10. “Create in me a new heart…” God is still in the business of creating new heart and renewing the right spirit in those who are willing to cry to Him and receive the change!
Continue in fervent prayers to flush out the evil presence in your heart; read and meditate on the Word of God constantly, and let it dwell richly in you. Prayerfully guard your mind against every satanic counter attack. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw closer to God and He will be there for you (James 4:7-8).
PRAYER POINTS:
