Guard Your Heart
This week’s Devotional Topic
“Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life” – Proverbs 4:23
The heart is the command and control system for our lives. As God’s wisdom is received and cultivated through the inner working of the Holy Spirit, our lives reflect the presence and influence of Jesus Christ. The more we study, meditate on, and practice the precepts of God, the safer the inner sanctuary of our heart will be.
We can also protect the wellspring of our soul by the consistent exercise of prayer. Prayer is conscious fellowship with and dependence on Jesus Christ. Healthy, periodic self-examination is also a safeguard. Directed by the Holy Spirit, we ask God to search us and sift out any willful sin is camouflaged area of disobedience. The issues of life, the essential matters, flow from the heart, determining the direction and impact of our lives. Guard your heart earnestly; and the wellspring of the Holy Spirit will overflow into all you do, say, and think.
This week’s Scripture: Psalm 119:1-176 (NIV)
