Daily Devotional: August 1 – Deep Words

Your word I have hidden in my heart, that I might not sin against You – Psalm 119:11

The heart envisions, the mind manages, and the body acts. Therefore, the things we do are influenced by our thinking, and our thinking is determined by what is in our heart. It is not enough to memorize the word of God and have it rummaging in our mind where it battles other ways of thinking that emanate from our heart. We must let His word sink into our heart so that the root of our thinking becomes godly. When the root intentions of our heart and the thoughts of our mind reflect the heart of God, then we are sure to act in a way that pleases God. Otherwise, we will find ourselves mixing godly and ungodly thoughts together and using the word of God to justify our ungodly action, and in so doing sin against God. Have you hidden His words in your heart? Are you living by the word of God or is it something you go to when you need help? Today, allow the words of God to sink deeply into your heart where the enemy cannot find it to remove or contaminate it.

I need to get my heart right before God for my actions to be right before Him
