Changed in His Presence - Sam Hinn

CHANGED IN HIS PRESENCE
Since then, I have continually asked God to
let me see what my heart is like. The moment
you think you know, God has a way of surprising
you.
The heart is deceitful above all things,
And desperately wicked; Who can know it? I,
the Lord, search the heart, I test the mind,
Even to give every man according to his ways,
According to the fruit of his doings (Jer. 17:9-
10).
The Lord will reveal to us the very intents of
the heart. He knows what we say and why we
say it. He cannot be fooled.
As for you, my son Solomon, know the God
of your father, and serve Him with a loyal
heart and with a willing mind; For the Lord
searches all hearts and understands all the
intent of the thoughts (1 Chr. 28:9).
God continually searches our hearts and
knows our motives and intentions. He knows the
very framework of our thoughts. God, out of His
love for us, will confront us with the condition of
our hearts. What is great is that He doesn't just
leave us hanging with that revelation. He will
reveal it so He can heal it. Your responsibility is
to guard your heart so it's not polluted again.
Keep your heart with all diligence, For out
of it spring the issues of life (Prov. 4:23).
What a powerful thought: Guard your heart.
People buy expensive security systems to guard
things like cars and jewelry and forget about
their most valuable asset—their hearts.
Everything I am and everything I say will
