For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks.



Darlings what an awesome God we serve, today I was busy reading Matthew 12: 22 – 37.  Now I don’t know if you ever read this but let me give you a short insight into the message.

Now the people brought a demon-possessed man who was bland and mute and the Lord Jesus healed the man so that he could both talk and see.  It was something to behold because the people were astonished and they said ‘Could this be the Son of David?’

Now the Pharisees hear this and they said ‘It is only by Beelzebud, the prince of demons that this fellow drives out demons.’ 

The Lord Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them ‘Every kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and every city or household divided against itself will not stand.  If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself.  How then can his kingdom stand?  And if I drive out demons by Beelzebudh, by whom do your people drive them out?  So then, they will be your judges.  But if I drive out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.”

Jesus continued to speak ‘Or again how can anyone enter a strong man’s house and carry of his possession unless he first ties up the strong man?  Then he can rob his house.”

Looking at the crowed Jesus said to them ‘He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters.  And so I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven.  Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come.   Make a tree good and its fruit will be good, or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit.  You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything good?  For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks. The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him.  But I tell you that men will have to give account on the Day of Judgment for every careless word they have spoken.  For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned.”

Lord Jesus in humble prayer I stand before You today, asking You Lord to be the ruler of my heart so that what my heart is filled with my mouth will overflow.  I want to speak about You Lord and let other people know how awesome You really are.  Lord humbly I pray and dedicate my blogger friends into Your hands and believe You are there for each one of us today.  In the Holy Name of Jesus Christ I pray.  Amen

Wisdom in Trusting God

Proverbs 3: 5-6 NIV “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.” My journey has been really interesting and there are days when I find it really difficult to trust in God.  On those days I go and make all kinds of plans and I think and worry about the matter at hand and at the end of that day I am tired, frustrated and I feel sick to my stomach.  Are you able to relate?   It sounds so easy when you read these words “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;”  Many times I take my problems to the LORD and I leave them with the LORD and after some serious thinking and worrying I go back to the LORD and take the problems back. This has been something I did for a number of years and lately, I have realized it has to change, I have to trust in the LORD.  After all, God is the creator and knows the plans for...
