Everything You Do Flows From It

Proverbs 4:21-23 – Do not let them out of your sight, keep them within your heart; for they are life to those who find them and health to one’s whole body. Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.

Proverbs 2:1-5 – My son, if you accept my words and store up my commands within you, turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to understanding—indeed, if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding, and if you look for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure, then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God.

Mark 7:20 – He went on: “What comes out of a person is what defiles them.

Application:

  • ·         If we store up good things in our hearts, our words and actions will be good.
  • ·         “Store up…within you” just as the psalmist hid God’s word in his heart to avoid sin.
  • ·         Fellowship with God is not interrupted by unclean hands or food but by sin.
