June 27, 2009 Matters Of The Heart
Today’s Bible Reading: 2 Kings 13,14; 2 Chronicles 25; 2 Timothy 3
Scripture Focus:
2 Chronicles 25:1–2 Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem. And he did what was right in the sight of the LORD, but not with a loyal heart.
2 Timothy 3:5 having a form of godliness but denying its power.
Observation:
It’s quite possible to do the right thing without having a right heart. It looks pretty good to people around us, but God knows the heart.
Application:
This theme is repeated often in Scripture—probably because we need to hear it often. So, Linda, how’s your heart?
Prayer:
Father God, keep my heart tender toward you. When I stray, for we all stray, may the loyalty in my heart soon turn back to you.
