Keep Our Hearts Right

Inspired by: Pastor Mike Stoltz

Hebrews 4:12-13
"For the word of God is living
and active. Sharper than any
double-edged sword, it penetrates
even to dividing soul and spirit,
joints and marrow; it judges
the thoughts and attitudes of
the heart.
Nothing in all creation is
hidden from God's sight. Everything
is uncovered and laid bare before
the eyes of him to whom we must
give account."
In heaven above,
our heavenly Father has our
treasures in store.
Being our heavenly Father's
creation; we must keep
our hearts right.
By following his every command
and walking in the power of
his intimate unfailing love.
We have eternal life in sight.
Nothing is hidden from God.
He knows your heart,
your every thought, through
and through.
Jesus Christ, set an example;
by following his Father's righteous
and Holy ways.
Jesus's heart was always right.
As he taught us how to truly
live.
Our heavenly Father, and Jesus
Christ
make their home in the hearts of
those who love them.
Hallelujah! To Jesus give praise.
John 14:15-27 Jesus Promises The Holy Spirit
"If you love me, you will obey what
I command.
And I will ask the Father, and he
will give you another Counselor
to be with you forever --
the Spirit of truth. The world
cannot accept him, because it
neither sees him nor knows him.
But you know him, for he lives with
you and will be in you.
I will not leave you as orphans;
I will come to you.
Before long, the world will
not see me any more, but you will
see me. Because I live you also
will live.
On that day you will realize
that I am in my Father, and you
are in me, and I am in you.
Whoever has my commands and
obeys them, he is the one who
loves me.
He who loves me will be loved
by my Father, and I too will
love him and show myself to him.
Then Judas (not Judas Iscariot)
said, 'But, Lord, why do you intend
to show yourself to us and not to
the world.'
Jesus replied, 'If anyone loves
me, he will obey my teaching.
My Father will love him, and we
will come to him and make our
home with him.
He who does not love me will
not obey my teaching. These words
you hear are not my own; they
belong to the Father who sent me.
All this I have spoken while
still with you.
But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit,
whom the Father sent in my name,
will teach you all things and
will remind you of everything I
have said to you.
Peace I leave with you;
my peace I give you.
I do not give to you as the world
gives. Do not let your hearts
be troubled and do not be afraid."
By diligently studying scripture
and believing in the power and
authority, that we, as Christians
have, in Jesus Christ,
we are more than able to keep
our hearts right.
Keeping our hearts right
in the resurrection of Jesus
Christ, we have a living hope.
In the mighty name of Jesus,
I pray you do what is
spiritually right.
By keeping our hearts right
before our Creator, we are
guaranteed access to the tree of
life.
Revelation 22:12-17
The River Of Life
"Behold, I am coming soon!
My reward is with me, and I will
give to everyone according to
what he has done.
I am the Alpha and the Omega,
the First and the Last, the
Beginning and the End.
Blessed are those who wash
their robes, that they may have
the right to the tree of life
and may go through the gates
into the city.
Outside are the dogs, those
who practice magic arts, the
sexually immoral, the murderers,
the idolaters and everyone who
loves and practices falsehood.
I, Jesus, have sent my angel
to give you this testimony
for the churches. I am the Root
and the Offspring of David,
and the bright Morning Star.
The Spirit and the bride say, Come!
And let him who hears say, Come!
Whoever is thirsty, let him come;
and whoever wishes, let him take
the free gift of the water of life."
Let's keep our hearts right.
My dearly beloved brothers and
sisters in Christ.
Focus on Jesus! The author and
perfecter of our faith.
Hebrews 12:1-3 God Disciplines His Sons
"Therefore, since we are surrounded
by such a great cloud of witnesses,
let us throw off everything that
hinders and the sin that so easily
entangles, and it makes us run with
perseverance the race marked out for us.
Let us fix our eyes on Jesus,
the author and perfecter of our faith,
who for the joy set before him
endured the cross, scorning its shame,
and sat down at the right hand
of the throne of God.
Consider him who endured such
opposition from sinful men,
so that you will not grow weary
and lose heart."
Your heart is where your treasure
is.
Our eternal treasures are
in heaven above.
With a right heart,
you will never lose sight.
Treasures In Heaven
Matthew 6:19-21
"Do not store up for yourselves
treasures on earth, where moth
and rust destroy, and where thieves
break in and steal.
But store up for yourselves
treasures in heaven, where moth
and rust do not destroy, and
where thieves do not break in
and steal.
For where your treasure is,
there your heart will be also."
Matthew 5:8-10
"Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they will see God.
Blessed are the peace makers,
for they will be called sons of God.
Blessed are those who are
persecuted because of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of
heaven.
Heavenly Father
We praise you for
being a loving, merciful, and
forgiving God.
Father God; we praise you for your
unfailing love.
Have mercy on us dear heavenly
Father.
For we are all sinners. We were
born into sin.
Thank you, loving, righteous
heavenly Father, for loving us
enough to give the life of your
one and only begotten Son.
Jesus Christ, as a living sacrifice.
Thank you Father, for the unfathomable
pain and suffering that Jesus Christ
went through on the cross of Calvary.
Releasing us from the bondage of sin,
and earthly ways.
Thank you Father God, for our
heavenly treasures.
Father we most humbly pray for
our hearts to be right. As Jesus's
heart, when he was here, walking
on earth.
Thank you heavenly Father, for
the living hope that we each
have, in the resurrection of
our Savior Jesus Christ.
Father God, we humbly pray
for Godly wisdom, knowledge,
and understanding.
We pray for your Holy Spirit
to vibrantly flow, through each
one of us. Keeping our spirit
freshened.
Father God, we pray for your will
to continually unfold, in our
humble Christian lives.
In Jesus Christ, heavenly Father,
we pray from our innermost
being that our hearts will always
be right with you.
As a fragrant incense, Father God,
we lift this humble prayer up
before your royal throne of
grace. Through the reigning office
of our loving Lord and Savior,
Jesus Christ.
Amen, and Amen.
