Give Your Heart To The Lord
Friday, January 12, 2024Key Verse
“My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways.” Proverbs 23:26
Text — Proverbs 23:22-26
Message
The heart is one of the most vital organs of a living thing. The sickness of the heart is very deadly. When the heart is so sick and there is no hope of recovery, the doctor recommends a transplant. This is a medical process of giving another heart to the sick person.
Since the disobedience of Adam and Eve, every person is now born with a heart that is sick with sin. Every human heart has malfunctioned spiritually. No one’s heart works the way God wants. Sin makes our heart sick. Jesus is calling you to give your sick heart to Him for healing. Nobody does that for the other. Everyone at a time, must be willing to give his or her heart to Jesus. Jesus specializes in remaking hearts; and He does that at a time. Just as it is not right to tell a doctor a lie about your health, you must first tell Jesus, in prayer, all the bad things you have done that have made your heart dirty and sick. You must stop doing what is bad and give your heart to Jesus. He will forgive, heal your sick heart and bless you.
