An imperfect heart

DATE: September 8th, 2021

TOPIC: An imperfect heart

BIBLE TEXT: II Chronicles 25vs2 – And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, but not with a perfect heart.

As a child of God you are to serve the LORD with all your heart, might and mind, everything that makes you a man/woman, you are to surrender to God. The LORD does not require half service, half obedience or half cooked meals. He wants us wholly and complete. Romans 12vs1 says ……… that you present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service of worship [MEV]. Listen to the anchor scripture; King Amaziah served God with half of his heart (love) and the other half he used for idolatry and disobedience.

When you serve God with an imperfect/incomplete heart, your service will become corrupted and polluted before God and before men. King Saul also was a man with an imperfect heart, who disobeyed the LORD’s direct instructions and commands, also the young prophet in I Kings 13, who obeyed God partially. We must learn to serve the LORD with all our strength and heart like Christ did, saying not my will (not the works of the flesh) but the will of God (the leading and direction of the Holy Spirit).

To serve God perfectly we need to live and walk in the spirit. We need to mortify our members, crucify the flesh daily I Corinthians. 15v31 – Paul said by the Holy Ghost – I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our LORD, I die daily (to the flesh).

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I repent of my ignorant ways and works of the flesh, help me to walk perfectly in your ways by the help of the Holy Spirit.

Insight: An Imperfect heart will ruin your work with God.

Capsule One - (WHAT DO YOU WANT SO BADLY?)

May 1st – Capsule 1 TOPIC: WHAT DO YOU WANT SO BADLY? BIBLE TEXT: Let us lay aside every weight and sin which easily beset us … Hebrews 12 vs. 1 You will start getting well when getting well is what matters most to you. Let your desperation drive you beyond concern about the opinions of others. As long as you are more conscious of people than you are of God, you will never get what you need. When Hannah, Samuel’s mother, prayed in the temple, there was so much locked inside her that when she began to pray and pour her heart out, Eli thought she was drunk (see 1 Samuel 1 vs. 13). God is raising up people who will confound us – radical Christians. Like those on the day of Pentecost, they were hungry for God. They will raise the roof to get to Jesus. They had carefully laid plans, and cry like blind Bartimaeus, “Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me” (Mark 10 vs. 47). When you are blind, all that matters is receiving your sight. When it looks like there’s no way out fo...

THE GRACE OF GOD

Date 📅 26th October, 2022 Topic The Grace of God Living Scripture 1 Corinthians 15:10 KJV But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. The grace of God is very important to everyone both saved and unsaved though as many as believe in Christ Jesus receives of the grace and truth at work in the Lord. This is what sustains us as children of God throughout our lifetime here on earth. God's grace for the world is general but limited and that for His children comes only in Christ Jesus, for as many that want to partake of this kind of grace must be born again and baptized in the Holy Spirit. This brought about the testimony of brother Saul turned Apostle Paul who testified to be the least of all the Apostles and disciples of Christ. He was a persecutor of the gospel a child of Abraham under the common grace but not under the g...
