The Heart That Never Grew
If you will trust God with all your heart deliverance from all ails will come. Deliverance means you have been liberated, rescued, freed, given birth to something, reached a certain destination, come through with to produce the promised, desired, or expected results, and you have been set free. This trust brings about a new found hope, a pleasing expectancy, a new desire with anticipation, one of expectation of obtainment, expecting with confidence the fulfillment and trust.
When you grow in the Lord you hope against hope without any basis for expecting fulfillment while hope is the opposite, desire accompanied by expectation of or a belief in the fulfillment of what you are hoping for.
Their present state makes their heart grow or cause them to faint. What are you going to let happen in your life. Will it be things that will cause growth in your present time or will it be a heart that never grew?
As in the natural the born again Christian must grow and grow up properly, otherwise they will be reserved for a place they do not want to go.
The heart is the center of operation for human life. The exhaustion of physical strength is called a melting or withering of the heart. The heart also is considered to be the center of soul life. It is the seat of love, hatred, joy, sorrow, wisdom, and of pride. The heart packs a lot in it and when people don’t grow their heart carries baggage. When envy and strife enters in it backs up everything else to the back of the heart it keeps you miserable in the earth and keeps you out of Heaven. Why would you want this? The heart can only pack so much and when it is not emptied out it is smothered and cannot breathe. Every good work in it is stunted and it will fail. The heart for the Word of God must grow in the life of the Christian and as it grows every bad thing is replaced with good whole nutritious Word. Heaven is the dwelling place of God and Christian growth prepares one for heaven.
God is a God of Love, Peace, and Righteousness, but weeds of unrighteousness grow in the heart of the Christian and all of the attributes of God is passed out through the bowels. Heaven is a holy place and God search out the hearts before they are allowed to enter into heaven. He understand the imagination of the thoughts man allows to come to their heart, but what he do not understand is why they let vain things enter in knowingly and readily. When a man or woman will ask for God’s help in keeping their heart free of the polluted issues, they break their spirit and is renewed in their hearts.
Earth is the place we live in as distinguished from Heaven. It is the place of man’s habitation and is dry and men should have dominion over it but they have yielded all of their being to live on the earth now without thinking about a promised eternal place at the end of this earthly journey. Because of this their hearts for God never grows.
God placed it in man but they choose to make their hearts merry and forget their Creator. Their hearts is deceitful and desperately wicked. It is also God that will try the reins even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings. Only the pure in heart shall see God. He knows when you are thinking evil in your heart, which means you have failed to grow.
In the day when you are provoked into temptation it is because you have failed to grow in your heart and there is no understanding that knowledge can hold on to. The mouth of fools feeds on foolishness, for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth will speak.
When the heart of the Christian fails to grow there is no fear of God, they will not keep his commandments for they don’t reside in that man. If we keep not the commandments should we say we believe them? I think not, for we follow after what we have faith in.
