Can we know the heart condition of another person?

Can we really know what is in a persons heart? Yes we can, according to what Jesus had to say.

I hear people say that no "one can know my heart", we can by what proceeds out of your mouth.

If your heart is full of the love of God, then you will speak those things that build up and bring hope to someone.
If you harbor unkind thoughts and criticism and ungodly things in your heart, it will come out of your mouth.

Matthew 12:33-34 (Jesus speaking)
"Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree bad and its fruit bad; for a tree is known by its fruit.  Brood of vipers! How can you being evil speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.

The things that come forth from our mouth, reveals our heart condition, Jesus said so!

Yes we can know another's heart by listening to their words. It will help us to know how to pray for them, not condemn them, the Holy Spirit will bring the conviction, that is needed.

By listening carefully we can know what we should pray for others and how we should pray for those that don't realize they are exposing what is really in their heart.

Some of us think we have a mouth problem, when in fact it is a heart problem.

It can be bitterness that we are harboring, or a unforgiving spirit, it can be pride that has snuck in, thinking we are better than someone else.

Ephesians 4:29
Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers.

When you hear something coming from your own mouth, or someone else's mouth that is contrary to the word of God, then, PRAY!

Jesus made it clear, it is what we speak that can make the difference.

Matthew 15:10-11
When He called the multitude to Himself, He said to them, "Hear and understand. "Not what goes into the mouth defiles a man, but what comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man"

Beloved, It is so very important that we hide God's word in our heart.  Then when we speak, the life of God will come from our lips, and not the death of the world.

Proverbs 22:11
He who loves purity of heart And has grace on his lips, the king will be his friend.

People love to be around those that remind them of the goodness of God. Speak those things that bring comfort and hope to a soul.

God Bless your day
Jesus loves you

Love in Jesus
Joy

DOES IT MATTER WHO PREACHES THE GOSPEL, AS LONG AS THE GOSPEL IS PREACHED?

 G O S P E L= GOD'S OWN SON PROVIDED ETERNAL LIFE. This is the true gospel,  the good news!! What are we to conclude about this matter? Paul makes it clear, that whoever preaches Christ and the gospel, it doesn't matter, as long as the Gospel gets preached. Philippians 1:15-16 Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife, and some also from goodwill.  The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains, but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the Gospel. What then? Only that in everyway, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yes and will rejoice. Beloved, there are all kinds of preachers out there, but their motives are not our business. Those that are preaching for all the wrong reasons, could later repent, and start preaching for the right reasons.  We have seen this through the years. We are to listen for the truth of God's word. I h...

SCIENCE AND THE BIBLE.

Science proves that God's word has it right for sustaining our life. Science says, that we need   four basic elements to sustain life and survive. We need air, water, food, and light. We have it all in Jesus, if we have received Him as our Lord. Science is right. It has proven God's word is true. Acts 17:25 (Paul was speaking about the Unknown God to the men in Athens) Nor is He worshipped with men's hands, as though He needed anything, Since He gives to all life, breath, and all things. We need air in order to breathe. When we receive Jesus we have His breath, breathing through our lungs. When we breathe, we speak the name of God. Just speaking His name, we inhale YAH and exhale WEH.   YHWH means breath of life. Our Jewish brothers and sisters know the name of God means breath of God. This is an interesting fact that we believers need to know. We also need light. John 8:12 Then Jesus spoke to them again, "I am the light of the world; He who follows Me shall not walk...

JESUS IS NOT A GLORIFIED BUTLER, HE IS THE SON OF GOD.

SOME BELIEVERS THINK THAT JESUS IS A GLORIFIED BUTLER.  Whatever they ask for they will have, whether it is right or wrong. JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD!!  YOU ARE NOT TO COMMAND HIM,  YOU ARE TO ASK HIM, HONOR HIM, AND RESPECT HIM AND HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.  I have heard some believers young in their faith and understanding, say that they have prayed for such a thing and God will give it to them. They are trusting in their faith, not their faith in God. (Works of the flesh, which is witchcraft) Witchcraft is attempting to manipulate your environment or circumstances. (SELF) Works of the flesh. Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. (1Samuel 15:23) Galatians 5;19-20 NOW THE WORKS OF THE FLESH ARE EVIDENT, WHICH ARE: Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions , jealousies, outburst of wrath , selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, and revelries, ...
