Who Are The Pure In Heart?

Hello everyone,

I wrote in an earlier blog that the reason why the corruption level in the world is on the rise is because people are not honest with others, thus, they don’t say the truth, and this isn’t being pure at heart. Jesus said in Matthew 5:8, “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” Wow, to be pure in heart would make you see God? The Message puts this same verse thus: “You’re blessed when you get your inside world—your mind and heart—put right. Then you can see God in the outside world.” Your mind and heart are very important, because they determine the kind of life one would have. Our words which determines or commands things as we speak only functions based on the state of the heart and mind, but at the level where you get to see God, you should be living your life at a particular frequency.

Hebrews 12:14 says, “Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord.” And to pursue peace with all people, and holiness, you need to be pure in heart. To be pure in heart starts with being hungry and thirsty for righteousness which would be revealed to you. Jeremiah 29:13 says, “And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.” By this you are hungry and thirsty for righteousness, and Matthew 5:6 says, you will be filled, with the Holy Spirit.

To be filled with the Holy Spirit is one thing, but to walk with the Holy Spirit by being led by Him is another which proves where your heart lies. As you decide in your heart to be led by the Holy Spirit, you define the type of heart you have, which is a pure heart, and why is that? Galatians 5:16 says, “I say then: “Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.”” Walking in the Spirit is living the life of God here on earth which is by being pure in the heart and when your heart and mind is just as God’s heart, you shall see God.

To see God also means to think like Him, your approach to things would be just as God see things. The Bible says you have the mind of Christ, (ref.: 1 Corinthians 2:16), but this refers to those who have been filled with the Holy Spirit after receiving Christ as Lord of their life who is their life too.

Your heart and mind should be in tune with the Holy Spirit by being led by Him, thus walking with Him, and you’ll see God.

May the LORD bless you and keep you, make His face shine upon you. May the LORD be gracious to you and lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. AMEN.

                    

Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
