God’s word warns us that the heart is the source of our words, actions, and choices, so guarding it is not optional but necessary for our walk with Him. “Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life” (Proverbs 4:23, KJV), because what we allow into our thoughts will eventually shape how we live. Jesus taught that sin begins inside, saying, “out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness” (Mark 7:21–22). This means the real battle is not only outward behavior but inward surrender, and if the heart is not guarded, it will be pulled toward sin and destruction. God calls us to renew the inner life daily through His word and Spirit, for “a good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things” (Matthew 12:35), showing that a heart surrendered to God produces a life that reflects righteousness and obedience.

Lord, so often I rush through the motions, distracted by all my worries and lists. But I hear Your gentle invitation: slow down. Let my heart become Your home today. Fill every corner of this imperfect temple with Your holy presence. When I feel empty or unworthy, remind me: it's Your glory, not my effort, that brings true transformation. Shine through my cracks, my doubts, and even my restlessness. My prayer is simple: let Your glory fill my life until it overflows into everything I do. Come, Lord. Fill this temple.

thanks for the spot "))

Tongues is a spiritual gift definitely. You don't have to possess it. But some people do have it. No doubt. But it's not about speaking in tongues going to people, it's speaking in tongues going to the Lord. The tongues go up not out. Just like other Christians have spiritual gifts from the Holy Spirit some have the gift of tongues. It's speaking in another language that they're not even knowing they're speaking. That simple. Why because only the Holy Spirit knows why but it is a spiritual gift. Not every Christian needs to have it. it's more about sharing the word of God . That's what matters.

Reva Madryga Hey my friend. I wanted to bring some clarity to this.
Speaking in tongues is a gift of the Holy Spirit given for both personal edification and, when interpreted, for the edification of the church. Scripture teaches that “the one who speaks in a tongue speaks not to men but to God and builds up himself” (1 Corinthians 14:2, 4).

I understand what you mean with the church bit of this and I can see how it can come off as gimmicky and showy. However in moments of worship or prayer especially when many are worshiping together, tongues function as Spirit led prayer, allowing the Holy Spirit to intercede where words fail (Romans 8:26). In these settings, no interpretation is required because the focus is vertical, meaning directed toward God and not instruction toward the congregation.

To balance this scripture also teaches that order and discernment matter in corporate gatherings. When the church is in a time of teaching or attentive listening, tongues spoken aloud should be accompanied by interpretation so the whole body may be built up or edified (1 Corinthians 14:27–28). Without interpretation, speaking in tongues during these moments does not edif

"Forget not My benefits to you"🫵💯☝️👑...

"I have forgiven all your iniquities and healed all your diseases...
I have redeemed your life from destruction and crowned you with loving kindness and tender mercies...
As high as the heavens are above the Earth,
So great is My Mercy towards you....
I will answer you when you call with awesome deeds of righteousness and I will establish you with My strength as I established even the mountains.. 🏔️
I will clothe you with power and crown your year with goodness...
The paths on which you walk will drip with abundance, and the pastures will be clothed with flocks  & The valleys covered with grain"

Psalms 103:1-5
"Praise the LORD, my soul; all my inmost being, praise his holy name.
Praise the LORD, my soul, and forget not all his benefits— who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s"

Mary said, "My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for He has looked on the humble estate of His servant. For behold, from now on all generations will call me blessed; for He who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is His Name." (Luke 1:46-49)
Mary knows the truth. Humble as she is, she knows that God has done the unthinkable—He has taken notice of her, even her! And He has chosen her. And so, like Hagar before her (Genesis 16), she says, "God has seen me. God has looked on me, and seen my situation. I matter to the living God."
You matter to the living God. Though He is high and lifted up, glorious above all the heavens, He has come near to you. He has come into your world as a human being just like you—One who shares your suffering, knows your fears and griefs, carries your guilt and shame. Why? Because little as you are, He loves you, and He wants you to be His own. He will give you life forever, because you trust in Him, and you are His. You are blessed.
