GOD is Looking At Your HEART!

When the Law of Moses was given to Israel after the Exodus out of Egypt the laws that were given were mostly understood and kept according to this physical world. When the law that said “Thou shall not kill” was given men knew that GOD commanded men not physically to kill one another. When the Law “Thou shall not steal” was given Man knew they would come under God’s judgment if they stole something that belonged to someone else. When the law that said “thou shall not commit adultery” was given Man knew they would come under God’s judgment if they slept with another man’s wife.

However at that time and even now those with carnal minds did not actually understand these Laws according to the standard of God. The Bible repeatedly makes it clear to out that GOD does not only look at physical things, GOD looks at our hearts.

1 Samuel 16:7
“For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”

The Bible teaches us that God is spirit. Therefore those who desire to please God can NOT please God by simply paying attention to the physical things of this world and their physical bodies. God is before creation, God existed before the physical things of this world came into existence. Therefore the things that please God and the things that God looks at are not merely physical things. The things that please God are spiritual things, things that can’t be seen with physical eyes. And spiritual things are matters of the heart.

John 4:24
“God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

Therefore if someone thinks they are not a murderer because they have not physically killed someone then they don’t actually understand the way GOD views things. Because the Bible says anyone who hates his brother is a murderer.

1 John 3:15
“Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.”

In the eyes of God, you’re not a murderer just because you physically kill someone. Any normal human person good or evil can spot a murderer if they see them commit murder. But is God a man(Numbers 23:19)? Does GOD see like man sees? No. God sees the seed of hatred and murder in the heart of a man before the man ever commits the act of murder. Therefore if a man already has hatred for his brother in his heart God already finds this man guilty of murder.

If you caught me sowing weed seeds into your beautiful garden would you wait until the seeds grew into full-grown weeds before you saw me as guilty for destroying your garden? No. Seeing me plant the seeds in your garden would be enough for you to find me guilty of trying to destroy your garden. Therefore when a man accepts hatred for a brother into his heart he has already allowed seeds of murder to be planted into his heart! So GOD always finds this man guilty!

We have to remember that the Bible teaches that our hearts are where the Holy Spirit dwells!

Galatians 4:6
“And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!””

Romans 5:5
“Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.”

2 Corinthians 1:22
“who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.”

Therefore if you are allowing wicked seeds to be planted into your heart you are defiling the temple of God! And what does the Bible say will happen to those who destroy God’s temple?

1 Corinthians 3:16-17
“Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? If anyone defiles the temple of God, God will destroy him. For the temple of God is holy, which temple you are.”

Therefore when Jesus came to earth and began teaching he emphasized this point over and over again.

What does Jesus teach us about Lust in Matthew 5:27-28?

Matthew 5:28
“But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.”

Adultery is NOT only sleeping with another man’s wife, adultery is committed in the heart before the act is ever physically committed. God didn’t need to see you physically commit adultery to find you guilty of adultery, God has already seen the adultery in your heart the entire time. You may have never gotten the opportunity to commit adultery, you may be afraid, or the woman may not be interested. So is a man not an adulterer because he hasn’t physically committed adultery if he’s wanted to commit adultery but never gotten the opportunity? No, he’s still an adulterer who never had the chance to fulfill his desire.

Again what does Jesus teach us in Matthew 5:11 & 18-20?

Matthew 15:11,18
“Not what goes into the mouth defiles a man; but what comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man… (18)But those things which proceed out of the mouth come from the heart, and they defile a man.”

Therefore those who are still focused on physical clean food and unclean food, physical adultery instead of adultery of the heart, and physical murderer instead of murderer in the heart have completely missed the revelation of Jesus Christ. These people are like the Pharisees who have heard the message but the understanding of their hearts is darkened so they do not understand it. Therefore this group is still slaves to their flesh and have yet to break free from the grips of sin through Jesus. So within their hearts, they still find themselves lustful, angry, hateful, with evil thoughts, and more. The power of sin still reigns over them because they are still carnal and concerned with the physical things of this world that are perishing since this world is ending.

So Paul writes this about them:

Galatians 5:4
“You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace.”

Your physical body is going to go into the dirt and will turn into dust. What you put into this body will not go into your heart, but the things that you allow to be conceived in the heart, by these things you will be judged.

1 Corinthians 4:5
“Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the counsels of the hearts.”

Therefore we are commanded not just to not physically do evil acts which is easy and even the wicked people of the world know when they are physically doing evil. As Children of God who have been born again, we are commanded to not even let any evil things enter into our hearts. We must guard our hearts from evil so no evil thing gets conceived within our hearts. This is what God is looking at concerning us. Because if you never allow adultery to enter your heart spiritually you will never do it physically! If you never allow murder into your heart spiritually you will never do it physically.

The heart is the birthplace of the evil that men do. First, a sin begins in the heart and then it travels to the mind, and then a person wrestles with the desire to do the sin within themselves, and THEN men commit the sin. But if the sin is already in your heart and if you are already wrestling within your body with a desire to do a sin then you are already guilty of that sin in the eyes of God.

In closing:

I heard someone say recently “It’s not wrong to have homosexual desires, it’s only wrong to sleep with someone of the same gender, therefore as long as you don’t sleep with the same gender you’re not doing anything wrong”

And I had to correct this statement that it is a lie! It is WRONG to have homosexual desires because that means a person has allowed homosexuality to be planted into their hearts like a seed that later grew into a person doing homosexual acts. It is wrong to have the desire! Because the feeling of desire to do something is WITHIN YOUR HEART, and this desire is in your heart when your heart is God’s temple where HIS HOLY SPIRIT dwells.

Therefore our hearts must be purified! It is God who can change and purify our hearts, but we must turn to GOD in repentance and ask him to purify our hearts.

Ezekiel 36:26
“I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.”

Psalm 51:10
“Create in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a steadfast spirit within me.”

If you find yourself wrestling within your body with a desire to do a particular sin NOW is the time to repent. Don’t wait until you have physically done the sin. GOD sees it in your heart before you have done it. In the eyes of God, you are already guilty of it because you are allowing the sin to exist in his temple and so you are wrestling within your body with it. Repent of allowing that desire to exist within your body and ask GOD to remove it.

This is the standard the Lord has given us. Our righteousness must exceed the righteousness of the Pharisees(Matius 5:20)! 

Therefore guys, keep your hearts pure, don’t allow any evil thing to take root in your heart for even one second. And if you find that evil is in your heart go to GOD immediately in prayer for help. Renounce the wicked imagination that entered the heart in the name of Jesus.

Jeremiah 17:10
“I, the Lord, search the heart, I test the [a]mind, Even to give every man according to his ways, According to the fruit of his doings.”

That is all for today guys!

God bless you ALL who are in Christ Jesus our Lord!

Christian Women Can Not Take Birth Control

I’ve heard several married christian women say “I don’t want any more children” and I’ve often by shocked to hear this statement come out of the mouth of a Christian.

What if when God told Eve “Be fruitful and multiply(Genesis 1:28)” Eve talked back to God and said, “No God. I don’t want any children”. Do you think Eve could ever bring her mouth to make such a blasphemous and evil statement in response to the commandment from God? Do you think that your body is your own? Did you create yourself? What if your mother said the same thing before you were born? In saying this, do you realize that you wish your own life away? Should your mother’s emotional desire to not have children be greater than the life you now have, and the eternal life you stand to inherit in Jesus Christ? Should GOD have fewer children with him in Heaven and eternity just to satisfy your own desires?

But what if GOD granted Eve’s request and closed her womb, what would have happened to all of creation? Would you be alive today? Would you be able to receive eternal life and live forever and ever? Is a human desire greater than the eternal plan of God? How could we have so much audacity to say such things?

Genesis 1:28
God blessed them, then God said to them: “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it…”

Do you talk back to God? Did you create your own womb? Did you create your own life? Should GOD’s will not be done through His own creation?

Should the creation say to the Creator “I know you created me with purpose and gave me life and breath, but I don’t want to fulfill your purpose. I just want to use this free life you have given me for my own desires and purposes”

Christian family, how have we hardened our hearts this much toward the one that created our hearts? Do we not fear GOD? Isn’t GOD able to give us life and take away our life? Do we not fear Him? We dare tell the one who created us “God, do your plan with someone else. I don’t want it”. How merciful is God that we can say such things and God allows us to continue breathing.

Remember what the Bible says

Ephesians 6:2-3
“Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment with promise: “that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth.”

Do you realize that when you dishonor your parents — When you dishonor the vessel through which your life was formed why should your life be long? If you don’t respect the one who helped create your life why should you keep that life?

We must understand that it is not that God doesn’t hear us and see us that we continue to live when we say such things, but it is GOD’s great mercy toward us that we continue to live despite having such a rebellious heart toward God — the ONE who formed us.

God is sovereign. He hears everything and he sees everything!

Psalm 94:8-9
“Understand, you senseless among the people; And you fools, when will you be wise? 9 He who planted the ear, shall He not hear? He who formed the eye, shall He not see?”

Jesus says we will be judged for every idle word we speak(Matthew 12:36)

Do you think having children is only about YOU and Your body(a body you didn’t create)? Do you not realize how privileged you are that you are being used by GOD to bring GODS children to the earth so that they can be saved by Jesus Christ and so GOD can spend eternity with his children? Do you attempt to deny the GOD who gives you eternal life the ability to give eternal life to more people because YOU talk back to GOD and say “No GOD. No more children from me. Use someone else”. Should the person who says this have eternal life or should they perish? What would be just?

Luke 13:5
“I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.”

The Bible says it is GOD can open the womb and close the womb if he chooses.

Genesis 29:31
“When the LORD saw that Leah was unloved, He opened her womb; but Rachel was barren.”

1 Samuel 1:6
“And her rival also provoked her severely, to make her miserable, because the Lord had closed her womb.”

Remember in the Bible a man was struck dead because he ejaculated his semen on the ground because he didn’t want to create a child… Because he rejected the purpose of GOD to protect his own desires.

Genesis 38:9-10
“But Onan knew that the heir would not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in to his brother’s wife, that he emitted on the ground, lest he should give an heir to his brother. 10 And the thing which he did displeased the Lord; therefore He killed him also.”

For the women that say “Yeah but I don’t want to damage my body, and I don’t want to experience the pain of childbirth again”

What if Jesus said he didn’t want to experience the pain of being on the cross? What if Jesus didn’t want his body to be changed from a Godly form to a human form? If Jesus spoke like us we would all be dead today.

Philippians 2:7
“but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men.”

So who are you following? Who is your Lord?

I’m not speaking to the women of the world with this post, I am only speaking to Christian women who understand the things of God. Christian women belong to GOD and are in GOD’s direct care, but the other women of this world are still potentially subject to the enemy.

For those that say “I am afraid I will not survive if I give birth to a child?”

If a person dies do they go on to be with GOD? Don’t they go to a better place with a greater inheritance? Don’t they go to a place greater than this world? How much should we love this world?

Revelation 12:11
“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.”

But more than this…

The Bible says that not even a single sparrow can die without GOD allowing it to happen. Do you know that you are greater than a sparrow?

Matthew 10:29-31
“Are not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.”

No person can die without GOD. So why do you fear for your lives? And if GOD chooses to take someone’s life who can stop it? Perhaps they don’t die during childbirth because they run from this purpose but then they die another way a day later. Can we stop the purpose of God?

Women have the free will to remain unmarried, but for those who are in a covenant marriage or soon-to-be married, there is a responsibility to never attempt to thwart the purpose of GOD. If GOD chooses to close your womb for his own purpose he can. He has opened and closed many wombs. However, for those who accept the serpent’s birth control pills or use the devil’s latex condoms, this is evil. If GOD chooses to keep you from giving birth HE can, He doesn’t need your help. Birth control is witchcraft. Birth control even causes abortions to happen within the womb when the child is only 1 or 2 days in the womb. This is murder and against GOD and those on birth control must stop it and repent. Those who have taken birth control in the past and have stopped must understand that it’s possible several children that were 1 day old or 3 days old were killed in their womb and they still must repent for this.

In Closing:

What if when GOD told Sarah she would give birth to a child at her late age Sarah said “No God. I don’t want to have a child.” Where would the world be today? What if the wives of Jacob who gave birth to the 12 tribes of Israel said “I don’t want any more children?” Where would the world be today? What if Mary the mother of Jesus told the Angel Gabriel when he told her that although she was a virgin she would give birth to a child.. What if Mary said “No GOD. I don’t want to have a child as a virgin.” Can you imagine this? These women would not have dared to say such a thing, so why do you say it?

Remember when you desire to close your womb, more than only your womb can close. This can close your heart, and your mind, and even darken your soul. It’s all connected. When one part closes other parts can close too. Therefore be careful what you say out of your mouth. Our words are like seeds going into the soil. If you took one seed and said “I will plant this lemon seed because I only want one lemon..” You will get many lemons, not only one. Therefore when you give the seed of your words by saying “I don’t want this or that” you may shut off many things.

Matthew 19:14
“But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.”

And just in case it is not clear, this article is ONLY talking to Christian women who are legally married to men. Any type of deep intimacy happening between people who are not married is called “Fornication” and it is a sin that comes at a heavy price. God will judge the adulters and the fornicators(Hebrews 13:4). Nevertheless that is all for today.

God bless you ALL who are in Christ Jesus.

Death is Your Enemy!! Do You Know The Solution!?

Do you understand why you get hungry every day? Do you know why you get thirsty each day? Do you know why you get tired at the end of each day? To answer these questions just look at what happens if you do not satisfy these urges. What happens if you don’t eat? What happens if you don’t kill other living things (Plants and Animals) so that you can eat? Do you live or do you die? What happens if you don’t quench your thirst with water for an extended period of time? Do you live or do you die? What happens if you ignore the feeling of tiredness and do not sleep? Do you live or die?

So why do you get hungry, thirsty, and sleepy? Because death is knocking at the door. And why is death knocking at the door? Because of sin. For the Bible says the wages of sin is death. If a man doesn’t eat, he will die. If a man doesn’t drink water he will die. If a man doesn’t sleep he will die.

For this reason, Jesus taught us that HE(Jesus) is the bread of life and that whoever does not eat HIM(Jesus) will die.

John 6:35
“And Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger…”

For this reason, Jesus taught us that HE(Jesus) will give us the living water(John 4:10), and that whoever drinks HIS(Jesus) water will never thirst again.

John 6:35
“…and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.”

For this reason, Jesus taught us that HE(Jesus) is the true rest and whoever comes to HIM(Jesus) will receive REST.

Matthew 11:28
“Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”

What are the daily needs of each and every person on the earth? Food to eat, water to drink, and a shelter to sleep. What did Adam and Eve have before the fall in sin? Fruit to eat, a river to drink from, and a beautiful garden to sleep in. Everything was given to them freely. However after sin, man had to till the land and hunt/kill for food, dig deep into the ground to create wells for water, and they were removed from the beautiful garden and had to build shelter of their own. Man chose to no longer be sustained by GOD but decided to be sustained by their own “knowledge of good and evil” Therefore man had to put his own knowledge to work and fend for himself. No more God’s fruit, God’s river of life, or God’s shelter(garden).

*Sidebar*
Did you know that fruit is the only thing on the earth you can eat that doesn’t require death to occur for you to eat it? A fruit of the tree is the tree’s offering to you. The fruit is pure carbon. The tree is not harmed when someone gently removes its fruit. Therefore man originally was given fruit to eat because there was no sin and there was no death. However now that death has entered the world through sin, to consume fruit only would prove to be insufficient for many people, therefore now we are dependent on the life and death of other creatures to sustain our own lives. Look what sin has done…
*Sidebar*

However, in all of man’s knowledge man was still facing a problem that he could not solve. The problem of death that was caused by sin. When death comes knocking on the door of man’s stomach man could use his knowledge of hunting and farming to overcome death and eat food. When death comes because a man is thirsty man can use his filtering and digging knowledge to find water, and when death comes because a man is tired man can use his knowledge of construction to build a home. But what about death? Nowhere in man’s knowledge was the solution for death ever found.

Men have tried to solve this problem for thousands of years and failed. The stories of Dracula, vampires, Egyptian and pagan rituals, the “fountain of youth” drinking blood and more were all things man tried to do to escape death. Even today people like Elon Musk and others are attempting to become one with machines transfer their consciousness into robots in an attempt to live forever. Wealthy people have had their bodies frozen so they can be brought back to life if humans ever discover a solution to death.

However, the reason humans are struggling is because humans don’t know the two things that are important to solving this problem… The beginning and the end.

Beginning: Why is there death in the world? Sin.

End: What is the solution to death? Jesus.

There has been a solution to death for 2000 years, however just like in the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve rejected God’s provision and sought “Knowledge” on their own, Humans still today reject GOD’s provision, and want to use their “knowledge” to seek a solution on their own.

The Bible says “1 Corinthians 1:27 – “But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty”

Because with all of man’s wisdom and sophistication how could they have ever thought that the solution to hunger, thirst, shelter, and death could be found in one man named Jesus? Such a truth is far too simple and unscientific for the wise men of this world. But what does the Bible say about this:

1 Corinthians 2:14 – “But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.”

In Conclusion:

Jesus is the true Garden of Eden. In Jesus we have bread/fruit, we have living water, we have rest, and we have life. In Jesus, we have escaped death. Although these physical bodies will perish, our souls will live forever and the consciousness that humans are seeking for a way to transfer into robots will be transferred by GOD when we receive our glorified bodies in the resurrection.

Jesus is the way, He is the truth and he is the life(John 14:6), man shall not live by bread alone, man must live by Jesus(Matthew 4:4). The perishable bread of this world can temporarily preserve your physical body, but it cannot preserve your soul. The pollutable water of this earth can only eliminate your thirst for a moment, but it can do nothing to quench the pangs of your soul. The most beautiful bed in the world can allow you to sleep, but it can never give you rest for your soul.

The bread of this earth can never be our savior, because this bread is rotting, molding, and perishing with each moment. And even after the bread is eaten after 3 or 4 hours its effect has disappeared and you will need to eat it again. The bread of this earth, the wood that humans use to build their homes is all affected by sin, it’s all dying. The wood is rotting, the metal is rusting, and the bread is molding. All these things we use to preserve this physical body are perishing the same way these bodies are perishing. How can these things save us? They are subject to the same conditions of sin and death just like humans.

However when we eat the bread of Jesus it will never rot or perish and by this bread, we will live for eternity. When we drink the living water from Jesus our souls will never be thirsty again, and when we enter the shelter of Jesus, we may get physically tired but our souls will forever be at rest.

Please Family. Place your trust and faith in Jesus. This world and the things in this world can not save you. When the body perishes your soul must go to one of two places. If you have life within your soul you will spring upwards toward life, but if there is death you will descend downward towards death. Jesus is the life, he is the only way, GOD has given us a solution. Accept Jesus today.

Thank you all. Share this post if you like.

God Bless you all who are in Christ Jesus.
