What would it be like to have the heart of God? What would it be like to know Him, fully and completely, without boundaries and without end? Would we act as we do today, with restraint in our step and caution in our tongues? Loving God is knowing God. If we love Him, we will do His will and we will know Him. His heart will then be our heart, and we will no longer hold back from proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom of God.
The prophet Jeremiah, who was still a youth when God called him, said this about God’s children:
“I will give them a heart to know that I am the Lord, and they shall be my people and I will be their God, for they shall return to me with their whole heart.” (Jeremiah 24:7)
When God imparts the Holy Spirit into someone, He has imparted His heart into that person. This means that you and I, regardless of race, gender, culture, or otherwise, if God has chosen us and begotten us with His spirit, He then lives in us.
The prophet Ezekiel describes it this way:
“And I will give them one heart, and a new spirit I will put within them. I will remove the heart of stone from their flesh and give them a heart of flesh, that they may walk in my statutes and keep my rules and obey them. And they shall be my people, and I will be their God.” (Ezekiel 11:19-20)
God wants nothing but good for his people. God wants Christians to know He loves them, will provide for them, and will bless them in everything they do. In everything we do, the heart of flesh that God has imparted in us will lead us to do His will in spite of the temptation that surrounds us.
This is what it is like to have the heart of God.
Hallelujah God bless you so much
May God keep you and protect you always.
This is truly thought provoking. A great blessing indeed. Thank you for allowing God to use you in this way. God bless.
Blessings to you, too!
If only more people knew God our world would be a lot better. May God bless you.
This world would be different; that is for sure. Blessings to you, too!
Hallelujah!
Blessings, Simran!
God bless you too👑, Jack!
Beautiful Jack. How He continually draws us closer. Our finite mind cannot comprehend His infinite love.
Such a true statement. We, in our finite terms, cannot understand God’s endless love for us until we walk in His shoes for a day. Blessings!
Love Him so…and love how He loves us…
Reblogged too.
God so truly loves us a whole lot. I cannot even comprehend it. His love is so great that He has created the universe for us to marvel at in order that we would appreciate his handiwork.
It is wonderful to know that the LORD set out beforehand that He would be our God and we would be His people. The decree’s of the LORD do not return void. Praise the Lord from whom all blessings flow.
God truly is an incredible being. He has planned out everything and we are His until the end. I am so very thankful for everything He has done for me, including sacrificing His son Jesus as payment for my sins. I am in awe every single day God has created for me to live.
