Encouragement for your daily
walk with God
Not too long ago I
had my annual physical. After a few preliminaries, the first thing the doctor
did was to check the condition of my heart. Certainly an important matter! I
thought of my check up when I read something by the Chronicler. He reported
that 50,000 soldiers from the tribe of Zebulun served in David's army with
UNDIVIDED (some translations: "not double-hearted") hearts. [1st
Chronicles 12:33] Can you imagine a skilled army with that level of loyalty and
devotion?
There is immense
power in an undivided heart. I’m sure one reason for this is the singleness of
purpose when a heart is undivided. Couples with undivided hearts will preserve
their marriages, no matter the difficulties, issues and problems they face.
Intercessors with undivided hearts will ultimately break down strongholds.
Missionaries with undivided hearts will reach a nation. An undivided heart
caused a woman in the New Testament to pour out ointment worth a year's salary
on her Savior's head, wash His feet with her tears, and dry them with her hair.
An undivided heart is one of the most powerful things on earth.
Today is the day
for a “heart check-up.” Is your heart inspired by the supremacy of Christ? If
not, make it a point to know Him better. Dig a little deeper in the Word to
understand His great love for you. Talk with Him a little more today. He
inspires and empowers undivided hearts!
And
whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, knowing that
from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the
Lord Christ. Colossians
3:23-24
