Heart Posture of Receiving

After asking God to examine your heart and removing the clutter and unnecessary burdens you've been carrying, items not needed for His purpose, you must stay free from excess. Such excess can leave you confined and immobile. Carrying pain, resentment, regret, and unforgiveness in your heart leads to bondage. You cannot fully receive what God has in store for you because you lack the freedom and capacity to sustain His gifts. Being bound obscures your vision of God's message. Therefore, daily repentance is essential as long as you draw breath. Continually ask God for a pure and receptive heart. Do not forfeit what God has planned for you.

If there is any tension or unresolved issues with a brother or sister, we are called to seek resolution before continuing with our offerings to God. This teaches us the significance of harmony within the body of Christ and the importance of forgiveness and restoration. Take a moment to reflect on your relationships today. Is there someone you need to reconcile with? Let us strive for unity and peace as we worship the Lord together.ll stumble in many ways.

However, it also points to the ideal of being able to control our words, which in turn can lead to self-control in other areas of our lives. Strive to be mindful of your speech today, knowing that with God's help, you can become more like the perfect man described in this verse.
