We need to keep our hearts sensitive to God. Jesus taught in such a way that if your heart is open, you will be in a place to grow and understand His message, But if you’re not teachable, you won’t understand.
We need to stay teachable, ever evolving and growing! 2 Peter 1:3–4 (TPT) says, “Everything we could ever need for life and complete devotion to God has already been deposited in us by his divine power. For all this was lavished upon us through the rich experience of knowing him who has called us by name and invited us to come to him through a glorious manifestation of his goodness.
As a result of this, he has given you magnificent promises that are beyond all price, so that through the power of these tremendous promises you can experience partnership with the divine nature, by which you have escaped the corrupt desires that are of the world.”
So, it’s in you! Everything you need is already in you. Change does not happen from the outside. When change happens in the heart, actions will take care of themselves. Your behavior will begin to change. Your body will work to create whatever you are believing in your heart. So, what are you believing?
How do you see yourself? You can work and put in the effort your entire life, but until you actually SEE yourself where you want to be and envision it as if it has already happened, you won’t arrive there.
We have to get our heart established in the love of God.
We have to get our heart established that we are righteous.
We have to get our heart established that we have been healed and made prosperous.
We have to get our heart established in the GRACE of God.
You can only do what you know, but as you remain teachable, the grace of God will help you to continue to learn!
