The covenant of the heart

Hebrews 10:16
"This is the covenant I will make with them after that time, says the Lord. I will put my laws in their hearts, and I will write them on their minds." (NIVUK)

People of God! When God was talking to the people of Israel about putting his teaching in their heart and writing his word in their mind he had made a covenant with them, that he would be their God and they would be his people. This is what God wants for use. He wants to make a covenant with us by putting his word in out heart and in our mind. God has made this covenant so that we can remember his grace and his blessing that he has for us. We must follow the teachings of God on a daily bases as this will help us with our everyday living. God wants use To know that when we keep his word in our heart and mind that we can refrain from the unclean things of this world. When we accepted God in our hearts, we made a covenant with God by letting God know we would be obedient to his word. We must remember God is a God of his word and a God who gave his only Son for our sins. I would say, that was a true covenant of the Heart! All he ask of us, is to be obedient to the to the word of God. Saints let's hold true to our word and keep your covenant with God. God put in our hearts and mind the key to our salvation so that we can see him again. This covenant God has given us was from his heart. And when he put his teachings in our hearts he was making that covenant that he is our God and we our his people. So let's be obedient to the word of God by applying this to our everyday living.

The Heart of deception

Matthew 26:14-16
Then one of the Twelve-the one called Judas Iscariot-went to the chief priests and asked, "What are you willing to give me if I hand him over to you?" So they counted out for him thirty silver coins. From then on Judas watched for an opportunity to hand him over. (NIVUK)

Sometime in our lives we have been the victim of deception. Rather it come from a family member, friends, co workers, spouse or someone you don't know.
We are lewer into trusting and building relationship only to realize you been deceived. Well that's how Jesus feels when we turn our backs on him because things are not going our way. We let our flesh get the best of us so we begin to put Jesus on the back burner and sell out to our hearts desires. Sometime people can become deceptive by going through life and going to churching showing the love that God requires us to do, but yet they have a Heart of deception. God wants us to be true to his word and follow his commandments. He does not want us to be deceitful and carnal minded or sell out to the ways of the world. We don't want to be a Judas by hearing and studying the word of God only to fit in, why all the while you have a heart of deception to sell out for the for the desires of the flesh. People don't miss the Kingdom of God by having a Heart of Deception. Let's not put our salvation with Jesus up for sale, let's be sell outs for JESUS because he is the way the truth and the light. God Bless
