What Are The Contents of Your Heart

December 13, 2020 • Elder Tamiko Jackson

Elder Tamiko presented the word for the week to encourage us all to really look at the contents of our heart.

Here are a few key takeaways.

1. Pride takes on many forms: stubbornness, willfulness, presumptuous behavior and insolence. When we shift confidence from God to self, pride is manifested. Pride does not allow us to exercise in faith. James 4:6 God resists the proud but gives Grace to the humble.

2. Just because you have access it doesn’t mean that you have the authority. The only thing that you can do in the presence of God is surrender. Romans 13:1-2 states that every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. Therefore whoever resist the authority, resist the ordinance of God and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves.

3. Worship is prescribed and there is a posture. Those who worship God must worship in spirit and in truth.

What will we do with our moment when God searches the content of our heart. Will He find pride because nothing satisfies us? Will he find anxiety because we can’t be in control? Will he find that our faith has been perverted by fear and ambition? Or will he find the fruit of the spirit of a submitted heart.
