The Heart of a Worshipper<br />

Then hear <strong>in</strong> heaven Your dwell<strong>in</strong>g place,<br />

and forgive, and act, and give to everyone<br />

accord<strong>in</strong>g to all his ways, whose heart You<br />

know (for You alone know the hearts of all the<br />

sons of men) (1 K<strong>in</strong>. 8:39).<br />

I will praise You, O Lord my God, with all<br />

my heart, And I will glorify Your name<br />

forevermore (Ps. 86:12).<br />

Worship Him With the Whole Heart<br />

How do we know we are worshipp<strong>in</strong>g with all<br />

of our heart? The Bible tells us how to determ<strong>in</strong>e<br />

the measure of heart worship <strong>in</strong> the sixth<br />

chapter of Matthew.<br />

For where your treasure is, there your<br />

heart will be also (v. 21).<br />

What you treasure is reflected by what<br />

occupies your m<strong>in</strong>d, will and emotions. If you<br />

want to know where your heart is, exam<strong>in</strong>e your<br />

m<strong>in</strong>d, will and emotions while you worship.<br />

What do you th<strong>in</strong>k about? Are you delight<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong><br />

Him?<br />

Reveal<strong>in</strong>g the Intents of the Heart<br />

When I had my reality check on the highway<br />

a few months ago, I th<strong>in</strong>k what probably broke<br />

my heart the most was that I thought I knew<br />

what my heart was like, but I was so wrong. The<br />

moment the Lord really let me see what it was<br />

like, I was shocked. I remember say<strong>in</strong>g to the<br />

Lord, "No, not me!" I was confronted with truth.<br />

I had to deal with it and give Him my heart.<br />
