Issues of the Heart - Is Your Heart Being Prepared?

[Spirit]

"The preparations of the heart belong to man, but the answer of the tongue is from the Lord." ~Provers 16:1
For those of you that have read my blogs, you know that I am dealing with 'heart" issues. Scripture says defilement comes from within and I believe this to be our hearts. So I have been looking deep into my heart issues. Now today my hubby and I had a heated discussion about the importance of Bible training, or education. He is currently in Seminary school and the Spirit has opened his eyes in a wonderful way. But my argument to him was/is, what does it matter how much of the Bible you know, how well you can spit scripture, if your heart is wrong? Satan knows the Bible. It matters more what condition our heart is in, not if we know the Old Tesimant was all about the begining of the Hebrew People. Now I am not saying that is not important. We should all know our past. But...it has to change our hearts. It has to change the way we live, the way we treat each other. And if that does not happen, what good is the knowledge??? Why not desire wisdom? Wisdon is "doing"...Knowledge is "knowing".

I desire for my heart to be in the condition that the Lord wants it to be in. So as I continue with my quest to have my heart healed, as I continue to seek and meditate on God's word, as this scripture says...

This is such Spirit sent advise for me. Because I could not understand why he and I see things so differently. But I understand that is part of the ingredients the Lord is putting to gether. We just have to allow it all to come together. And I see an effort on both of our parts. For the past few days it has been darts being shot from us both, but I am seeing that we both are putting on our armour when we see it happening and shutting our mouths and seeking Gods word. And it's as if I can feel the Holy Spirit working. We had harsh words yesterday morning, instead of attacking him, I shut my mouth, left the house, prayed all the way to the office, and by the time I put my car in park, he was calling me apologizing and saying how he new it was a spiritual attack. I see how the Lord is giving him the ability to see things with spiritual eyes. And I am so thankful for that. Girl, I am so sorry I have released a book to you. But this was all God's timing with you leaving this message and me getting it this morning. Thank you for your obedience.
