Your Heart: - The Real You

By Adenuga S Joseph

In Romans 10: 10, we read,

“ For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness”

Your heart is the core of you, the real you, your spirit, and that is where the issue of life flows. You cannot be righteous from any other place other than from your heart. Salvation takes place from the depth of your heart. Healing touches your body only when your heart have received it, even wealth cannot come until your heart has had a good grasp of it. Nothing happens to a man in life unless his heart has first of all accepted it even to the point of death. Proverbs 4: 23 explains it better,

“Keep your heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.”

The issues of life are the forces of life that brings either success or failure. In fact, another translation of the above scripture say, “out of your heart are the forces of life’. Please note that the forces that brings life and death flows from your heart (or your spirit). Forces of success and failure flow from your heart; forces that signal healing or sickness flows from your spirit. Your heart or your spirit is very important; in fact it is the most important part of a man. Your spirit is constantly emitting forces of attraction or repulsion; the forces of your heart either attract or repel things, (including success and failure).

Let me repeat for the sake of emphasis that the heart of man is the spirit of man, the real man. Out of the heart flows the forces of life, better know it now that you daily emit powerful forces from your heart. You are constantly emitting powerful forces from your spirit man, these forces are strong enough to push or pull. They are powerful enough to attract or repel success, they are potent enough to attract or repel failure.

The Bible says in Proverbs 4: 23 that was quoted above that we should guard our hearts with all diligence for out of it are the issues (or forces) of life. The woman with the issue of blood touched the helm of Jesus’ garment and was healed instantly because VIRTUE (or POWER or SOME FORCE) went out of Jesus and He knew it in Himself. He therefore asked, “Who touched Me?” You determine the virtue flowing out of you because you have power to control what you allow yourself to think, believe or say. You are a special being; you have a force that can bring success to your life, that force is in your heart. You can draw success; attract it with the forces that issue from your heart, nothing is impossible for you. YES, nothing is too big or too good to come to you, no matter how enormous the blessing may be, it is not too much for you, only if your heart can conceive of it and pull it into your life. Failure and or success starts from your heart, not from your environment, not your parents or GOD.

You have power to make success and get good success, so friend it is up to you. Go and do it.
