TODAY'S DEVOTION. PURE IN HEART.

TODAY’S SCRIPTURE.“Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God." (‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5:8‬ ‭KJV‬‬).

You are not pure by your actions only. Purity begins with the heart. God deals with us from the heart, In I Samuel 16:7 when Samuel was  considering Eliab, David's older brother as the one he should anoint as king, God told him, "Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature, because I have refused him; for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart." God looks at your heart always. Therefore, to be pure make sure your have pure thoughts always, “For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.”(‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭23:7‬ ‭KJV‬‬).

The heart God is referring to is your “thoughts” if you are pure in your heart (your thoughts) you will be pure before God. It is more worthy that “thinking or thoughts” is not a gift or an attack but rather every thought is a product of the information you are exposed to. In other to make your heart pure, make your thoughts pure and to make your thought pure, make your information pure.

Information comes from your five senses. What you see, hear, feel, taste or touch. You can never be more powerful than your thoughts. Your capacity for purity is measured by the purity of your mind. If you desire to experience genuine  purity, you must guard what your mind feeds on consciously.“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.”(Philippians‬ ‭4:8‬ ‭KJV‬‬)

The worst enemy of our purity today is the uncontrolled exposure of our mind to junk on social media. Analyse the pictures,videos, articles and adverts you keep checking; are they true,honest, just, pure, lovely,of good report, virtuous or worthy of praise?

TODAY'S PRAYER.
Purify my heart Father with your fire and burn all impure thoughts in my memory. Help me control the information I expose my heart to this year so I can live in purity in Jesus Name.

POTTER'S TOUCH DEVOTIONAL TUESDAY 10TH APRIL, 2018. TODAY’S DEVOTION: BLOOD OF RESTORATION. PT 2.

POTTER'S TOUCH DEVOTIONAL TUESDAY 10TH APRIL, 2018. TODAY’S DEVOTION: BLOOD OF RESTORATION. PT 2. TODAY'S SCRIPTURE: "The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?" (1 Corinthians 10:16 KJV). Every communion table is a kind of renewing the covenant of restoration. Nothing can be more exciting to know that like a meal I can eat and drink blessing of restoration. Look at how Jesus put it Himself," Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you. Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him." (John 6:53-56 KJV).  So except you keep eating the body and drink...

POTTERS TOUCH DEVOTIONAL. SATURDAY, 21ST OCTOBER 2017. TODAY'S DEVOTION.TO LIVE A QUALITY LIFE, STOP WORRYING PART 2.

POTTERS TOUCH DEVOTIONAL. SATURDAY, 21ST OCTOBER 2017. TODAY'S DEVOTION.TO LIVE A QUALITY LIFE, STOP WORRYING PART 2. TODAY'S SCRIPTURE. "Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.” (1 Peter 5:7 NLT, second edition) We established in yesterday's devotion that it takes more than willpower to stop worrying and that it takes four things to stop worrying. Firstly , get to know God first and secondly put God first in every area of your life.We will be looking at the other two today. 3.Live one day at a time. The Bible says, “So don’t worry about tomorrow, because tomorrow will have its own worries. Each day has enough trouble of its own” (Matthew 6:34 NCV). If you’re worrying about tomorrow, you can’t enjoy today. You will miss today’s blessings. It’s okay to plan for tomorrow, but you have to live for today. When you’re always worried about tomorrow, the future gets overwhelming. But God will give you the grace...

MONDAY, 11TH SEPTEMBER 2017. TODAY'S DEVOTION.CRITICISM AND PROSPERITY.

MONDAY, 11TH SEPTEMBER 2017. TODAY'S DEVOTION.CRITICISM AND PROSPERITY. TODAY'S SCRIPTURE."Start with God. The first step in learning is bowing down to God; only fools thumb their noses at such wisdom and learning” (Proverbs 1:7 MSG). Have you noticed that once you establish a goal in your life, you start hearing people say, “Who do you think you are, you think you have money?” or “It can’t be done just like that, how can one just prosper in these hard times?” or “Forget about it, they are all thieves! Etc The antidote to the voices of doubt is listening to the voice of God. Just imagine all the critics that were in Noah’s life. “That guy Noah thinks God speaks to him, but he’s just messing up the master plan of our city by building that ark in his front yard.” The Bible tells us that Noah listened to God. What did he hear? He heard God’s warning that the world was going to be destroyed. He belie...
