Ears To Hear And Hearts To Receive

Are you beginning to see the connection between our ears and heart? What we hear can easily settle into our heart. It reminds me of what doctors tell us about our physical bodies. A continual diet of certain “junk” foods can interrupt our metabolism and even clog our arteries. The same is true for our spiritual lives if we’re only hearing garbage and untruth. Hearing a steady diet of that can affect our life, and yes, even our heart. Remember, out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth will speak what’s in the heart. It’s similar to the old diet mantra: garbage in, garbage out.

These are reminders for us to clarify what we’re hearing and what we’re allowing to settle into our heart to believe.

We want you to grow and flourish in God’s active Word in your heart and life. That’s why we’re sharing these thoughts to encourage you to o beyond where you are today and press deeper into the things of God. Remember that as you renew your mind according to Romans 12:2 and center your thoughts in God’s Word and speak that Word into your life (Romans 10:8), you cement His truth in your thinking. What is the result?

The more you do this, the deeper the truth and power of the Word become planted in your heart. That’s when you’ll soon find yourself walking in greater peace and joy, speaking God’s Word into your situations because you’ve trained your ears to hear and believe the truth of what God says.

Let’s have ears to hear and allow God’s Word to strength our hearts and minds.
