BE OF PURE HEART

“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.”
Matthew 5:8
Main Text: Main text: Philippians 4:8

One of the primary foundations of  godliness is purity. A person sanctified by the Lord is licensed to walk in love all his days. Purity refers to something void of contamination, free of pollution and Jesus made this possible for us on the Cross. However, most of us drag ourselves beneath this in our dealings in the world and it affects our growth and increase in the business place, for you to ensure you live in godliness all your days, purity is a foundation you mustn't joke with.

Purity is an end product of redemption. Christianity will amount to ordinary religion without purity. It is purity that gives credence to Christianity. A proper application of purity gives a believer an all-round victory. You want to walk in success ensure that all facets of your life are sanctified.

Striving for and maintaining purity affects all aspects of your life. A pure heart will show in your thoughts, words, choices, attitudes, relationships, and more. Remember that your pure living benefits not only you but also those who are close to you. “Be sure to honor the Lord Jesus Christ “who gave Himself for us to redeem us from every lawless deed, and to purify for Himself a people for His own possession, zealous for good deeds” (Titus 2:14).

Prayer:

Father in the name of Jesus, thank you for making me sanctified, I repent from anyway I have acted otherwise in Jesus’ name and by Your Word I am sanctified Amen.
