The Household of God Ephesians 2:19
Heart Matters, February 4, 2018
Reading: Ephesians 3:17
1. Introduction
A man is tripartite 1Thessalonians 5:23; and the representation on all three is
vested in the Spirit. What the Bible refers to as your heart. Whatever happens
in a person's life is not as important as what happens in his heart.
An affront to a person's Spirit should be avoided in any human relationship.
2. Source of Character
Matthew 12:33-35 The source of a man's goodness our badness is his heart. The
fruit correspond to the tree. James 3:12. The reason: is that the heart is your
Spirit and that is your real self – A Spirit.
3. The worship of the Lord
John 4:24.
God can be worshipped only in the Spirit. That is any activity that is not true
and which also does not come from the heart is ineffective. Matthew 15:8 God
defines the worship that is pleasing to him. It has to be from the heart.
4. Prayer Romans 8:26-27
Prayer to God is a spiritual exercise. It is expressed in words but effected in
the Spirit.
It is empty without the Spirit (heart).
Romans 15:15-16. There is a translation of man's words and actions to make it
reach God. God will only receive things of the Spirit. Thank you Holly Ghost.
5. Meditation and confession - getting in the spirit. Joshua 1:8
Ephesians 5:19. Meditation and confession is the way to instruct our hearts.
Hebrews 3:12-13. We must continually affirm our beliefs.
Cultivate your heart for God
Prayer: Father help me to keep my heart only for you
