*Study scripture* ;
*_Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life. Proverbs 4:23 (NIV)_*
*GUARD YOUR HEART*
The word ” _heart_ ” there doesn’t mean the one that pumps blood, no however it refers to the soul which consists of the mind,will, understanding, conscience,appetites,emotions, passions and courage .
The Bible says guard the heart meaning u have to keep it diligently. You don’t guard something for only one day, No, No ,No. Think about the prisons, they are guarded day and night lest the prisoners escape or a broken into.
The heart carries the issues of your whole life, it affects everything you do – it’s where life starts. Even when you were receiving Christ remember the heart was involved. At that moment when you believed.
There are many gates to your heart namely the eyes, ears, feet,mouth. What do you see?, What do you hear?, What do you speak, which kind of path are you walking?
If you feed your heart with evil, it will instruct you in evil ways.
_I will bless the LORD who has given me counsel; My heart also instructs me in the night seasons.Ps.16.7 (NKJV)_
That is why even the thief will be instructed in his heart to plan for his stealing and will do so, the person who watches pornographic content will be instructed by his heart to masturbate, the perverse talker to abuse..
Give your heart to wisdom and it shall instruct you in the night season rightly.( It shall be health to your bones and also give you life.)
