OPEN MY HEART LORD


SCRIPTURE
Hebrews 4:12,13 [Message]
God means what he says. What he says goes. His powerful Word is sharp as a surgeon's scalpel, cutting through everything, whether doubt or defense, laying us open to listen and obey. Nothing and no one is impervious to God's Word. We can't get away from it—no matter what.
Hebrews 4:12,13 [TNIV]
For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. 13 Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.

OBSERVATION
it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart [TNIV] - laying us open to listen and obey [Message]
GUT CHECK!

APPLICATION
I cannot get enough of God's Word. It shows me who I am - It shows me who I can become. But if I'm not in the Word, truthfully I'm not in the game.

PRAYER
Holy Spirit,
Renew my desire to read the Bible often, meditate on it long, implement it's truth repeatedly.
