Open Your Heart, Ears And Eyes To God

Without God in our lives, we will never experience true joy. Open your heart, ears and eyes to God and He will show you great things.  Your heart will be conformed to live for God and not the world.  This is promised to those that seek after the Lord.  2Seek and you shall find. The Lord will unfold His mysteries to those willing and ready to open up to Him in prayer. It all starts with a humble heart. Next comes our ears. Listen to the Lord and you will hear the promptings of the Spirit, that you may know the way. 3As you look to God in faith, your eyes will be opened, that you may see.  Are you ready to come to the Lord with a humble heart? 4If your heart is willing and ready to follow Jesus, then the heavens are rejoicing. What you once thought was dear to your heart will never match the love of God. 1We were once fools because of our transgressions. We were afflicted because of our iniquities. However, God came and we are now more hopeful than ever because of Christ the Lord. He has heard our cries and found mercy upon our souls. Everyone that calls upon the name of Jesus will He save 1“them out of their distresses.” Repent of your sins and the Lord will forgive you. By the blood of Jesus, you will be cleansed. Praise the Lord for His mercy.

God has 1“sent his word”, the Holy Bible, that we may know what is right and what is wrong. 1The right way is made known and with the Spirit in our lives, it is a delight to walk in the ways of God. God is our healer. Only He is able to deliver us from our destructive lifestyle. 5There is a way to heaven and that is through Jesus. An open heart to God’s counsel will help you follow Him.  God is able to break the chains that hold us back. Be found seeking the Lord, and God will be able to speak to your heart. 3Open your ears that you may hear. God will lead and direct you, as you look to Him in faith. This is what the Lord desires of each and every one of us. The Lord desires all people to come to Him in faith. Allow the Lord to use you and you will do amazing things. 2God will place you on His path and lead you in His light. With the Spirit as our guide, our eyes will be opened that we may see. God will lift the veil from our face that we may know His truth. The scriptures will speak to our minds and give us wisdom. Truly, an open heart to God leads to joy everlasting. Come and see what God can do for your lives. Become a witnesses of His gospel message to the world. Live for Jesus and God’s blessings will poor out into your lives. Praise God for His wondrous blessings.

Let us pray:
Oh Lord, may our hearts be ever so open to Your will. When we find ourselves in sin, come into our hearts and break the bonds of addiction. We are sorry for our transgressions. Forgive us of our sins. Hear our cries and deliver us from our iniquities. We need You Lord. Cleanse us from all sin. Take us from the clutches of Satan and leads us in the right way. Our hearts are open. We want Your presence in our lives. We want to experience true joy. I love Your counsel. I love it when You speak truth to my mind. Through Your great love, my eyes have been opened. I know that a life in sin can separate me from Your love. I no longer want to be separated. Take me by the hand and cover me with Your armor. Help me to resist temptation and fight for Your cause. My love for You is greater than anything of this world. I want You in my life always. I love You. Amen.
