OPEN HEAVEN 23 FEBRUARY 2021 TOPIC: Guard Your Heart

MEMORISE: Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. – Proverbs 4:23

READ: Psalm 119:10-12 (KJV)

10 With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments.

11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

12 Blessed art thou, O LORD: teach me thy statutes.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Exodus 5-7

Open Heaven 23 February 2021 MESSAGE:

It is shocking how believers engage in all manner of conversations and associations carelessly. If you know the value of your heart, you would guard it jealously. In 2 Samuel 13 we see a classic case of what happens when a person does not guard his or her heart. Amnon who was a prince and could have married any lady in the land lusted after his half-sister who was a virgin. He then engaged in a seemingly harmless conversation with a friend who watered the seed of evil already planted in his unguarded heart. The evil desire then blossomed and led to his untimely death in verse 28 and 29 of the same chapter. The man who advised him to rape his sister is the same one who announced his death to David, his father (2 Samuel 13:32). Choose those you associate with wisely (Psalms 1:1).

Be careful of whom you listen to and be mindful of what you let into your heart. Jesus said in Matthew 5:8:
“Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.”

If you allow impurities to dwell in your heart, forget about ever seeing God.

In Matthew 12:34, Jesus said:
“…for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.”

In other words, your lifestyle and speech are an overflow of the meditation of your heart.

Believers who listen to worldly music and also allow their children to listen to them are courting trouble. The result may not be instant. But it will accumulate and surely begin to yield ungodly fruits.

King David knew the secret to clean heart and he shared this in Psalm 119:11:
“Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that might not sin against thee.”

Meditating on the Scriptures, listening to recordings of sound teachers of the gospel and keeping company with fellow believers are some of the primary ways through which we can keep our hearts guarded. You can only express what you have in your heart. Thus, if you constantly expose your heart to God’s word, you would guard your heart from all forms of ungodliness. Motivational words cannot cure sinful thoughts, only the word of God can.

Fill your heart with the word of God.

Open Heaven 23 February 2021 ACTION POINT:

Guard your heart diligently with the word of God.

Open Heaven 23 February 2021 HYMN 24: Take My Life, And Let It Be

  1. Take my life, and let it be
    Consecrated, Lord to Thee;
    Take my moments and my days,
    Let them flow in ceaseless praise,
    Let them flow in ceaseless praise.
  2. Take my hands, and let them move
    At the impulse of Thy love;
    Take my feet, and let them be
    Swift and beautiful for Thee,
    Swift and beautiful for Thee.
  3. Take my voice and let me sing
    Always, only, for my King;
    Take my lips and let them be
    Filled with messages from Thee,
    Filled with messages from Thee.
  4. Take my silver and my gold;
    Not a mite would I withhold;
    Take my intellect, and use
    Every power as Thou shalt choose,
    Every power as Thou shalt choose.
  5. Take my will and make it Thine,
    It shall be no longer mine:
    Take my heart, it is Thine own;
    It shall be Thy royal throne,
    It shall be Thy royal throne.
  6. Take my love, my Lord, I pour
    At Thy feet its treasure store;
    Take myself, and I will be
    Ever, only, all for Thee,
    Ever, only, all for Thee.
