COLD HEART

Text : Luke  24:32  

And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?

Your heart depicts your real you. As a man thinks in his heart, so is he. Prov. 23:7.  

Hearts can be classified into different categories,  one of such categories is a cold heart.

The word of God cannot germinate on a cold heart. Before anyone can profit from God's word, his heart's temperature must change from being cold to being hot.

Some hearts are not cold, but they aren't hot either Jesus said He will spit out such people.

I know your actions, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were cold or hot.
Since you are lukewarm and neither hot nor cold, I am going to spit you out of my mouth. Rev.3:15-16.
Note that a lukewarm heart is as Terrible as a cold heart. Let your heart burn for Him and Him alone.

At times, while some are being blessed by reason  of God's words,  others are just plainly indifferent. This is because their hearts are too cold to receive the engrafted word of God which is able to save their souls. James1:21.

The only antidote to a cold heart is fire. And this fire only come through His word. 
Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?Jeremiah  23:29.  The fire of God's words is able to burn the coldness of your heart away, if you could receive it.

Whilst Jesus was speaking with some of  His disciples, they later commented that their hearts burn within them while He was speaking. 

If what you are hearing  is indeed the words of Jesus,  then your heart will burn within you. Luke 24:32.

Does your heart still burn for Jesus? If not, check what you are hearing, and sincerely ask God to ignite your heart with His fire once more.


Bible Reading : Matt.13:1- 23.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

IN MY NAME.

Text : Mark 16:17-18  And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. Having believed in the gospel (Good news of the resurrection of Jesus and His victory over Sin, Satan and Death), you now need to start using the name of Jesus authoritatively. JESUS said that in His name you shall cast out devils; you shall speak with new tongues; you shall take up serpents; and if you drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt you; you shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. This means that you will undertake all these in the authority of Jesus' name. No matter how small or powerless you may think you are in your own eyes. Once you believe in His name, you shall do all that He promised.   Unbelief was the sin that Israelites committed that wasted a whol...
