"A good person produces good things from the treasury of A GOOD HEART, an evil person produces evil things from the treasury of an evil heart."
The bible tells us that out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. Are good things coming out of your mouth? Are evil things constantly coming out of your mouth? What does that say about your heart? What about your thoughts, are they good or evil? Anyone can tell where your heart is by listening to your words and what you say. What will we hear if we listen to you? Is your heart good or evil?
The bible tells us that at the day of judgement we will have to give account for everything that we have said and thought. We will be justified and acquitted, or we will be condemned and found guilty based on what was in our hearts and what our mouths spoke! If the words of our mouth come out of the abundance of the heart, then the state of our heart is critical. How can we be assured of a clean heart and a good heart? The bible says that Jesus Christ stands at the door to our hearts and knocks. Anyone who hears and opens the door to their heart will have Him come in and dwell with them. The answer lies therein.
A good tree brings forth good fruit. A bad tree brings forth bad fruit. A person, like a tree, is known by their fruit. A good person produces good fruit. A bad person produces bad fruit. We also know from the Word of God that "no one is good, no not one". How then do we become a good person with a good heart? The answer is to open the door to your heart and invite the Lord Jesus Christ to come in and dwell with you. Jesus will give you a new heart that is clean and good and you will share your life with Him for eternity. The words you speak to invite the Lord into your heart come from a sinful man with a sinful heart that is full of evil. God will hear your prayer and come in and dwell with you and start to clean things up. He will give you a new heart and you will become a new creation, a good person. You will put away evil things that came from your evil heart and instead your new good heart will bring forth good things from the treasury of A GOOD HEART! Ask the Lord to come into your heart today, your eternal life is at stake.
