Following Christ starts with the heart. (Prov. 4:23; Joel 2:13; Col. 3:1)

The Heart = the authentic you.

 

God is searching for the condition of our hearts. (2 Chron. 16:9)

 

What kind of heart is God looking for?

  • A heart that is loyal to Him. (2 Chron. 16:9)

 

  • A heart that sets God as its treasure. (Matt. 6:19-21)

 

  • A heart that speaks with grace and wisdom. (Matt. 12:34)

 

  • A heart that responds well to the Word of God. (Luke 8:15)

 

  • A heart that genuinely glorifies God in worship. (Matt. 15:8)

 

Take Home Idea: Christ is searching for a few good hearts.

A Thought From God's Word:
[Jesus Christ] is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. [Colossians 1:15-17]
