FAITH CAPSULE:\u00a0<\/strong>Take control of the things you see not to become corrupted<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 Samuel 11<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take control of the things that you expose yourself to see.
Without a doubt, what eyes of man feed on the heart will live.\u00a0
One that sees negatively, the heart, shall become corrupted.\u00a0
What are you feeding your heart that is negative?
David, a man after the heart of God, lost control of his heart when he recklessly set on negativity.
2 Samuel 11:1-3 documents<\/strong><\/em> the reckless David,\u00a0\u201cIt happened in the spring of the year, at the time when kings go out to battle, that David sent Joab and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the people of Ammon and besieged Rabbah. But David remained at Jerusalem. Then it happened one evening that David arose from his bed and walked on the roof of the king\u2019s house. And from the roof he saw a woman bathing, and the woman was very beautiful to behold. So David sent and inquired about the woman. And someone said, \u201cIs this not Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?\u201d\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0
The eyes of David fed his heart when he saw and beheld a beautiful woman bathing.\u00a0
What are you beholding wrongly?\u00a0
David\u2019s heart was not diligent enough to rebuke the negative presentation of the eyes.\u00a0
What are your eyes feeding your heart?\u00a0
David responds to his eyes as his heart by acting,\u00a0\u201cThen David sent messengers, and took her, and she came to him, and he lay with her, for she was cleansed from her impurity; and she returned to her house. And the woman conceived; so she sent and told David, and said, \u201cI am with child.\u201d (2 Samuel 11:4-5)<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0
Indeed, David committed a crime before God when he eventually set up the death of Uriah, the husband of Bathsheba.
David fed his heart wrong with evil engagement.\u00a0
David was responsible for the killing of Uriah and took over his wife.\u00a0
David could not hide from God, but the thing that David had done displeased the Lord.
Take control of the things you see, do not expose your heart to self-destruction.\u00a0
Keep your eyes clean to keep your heart pure.\u00a0
Jesus called the eye a lamp of the body.\u00a0
Matthew 6:2\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>records,\u00a0\u201cThe lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness!\u201d<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0
What the eyes feed on, the heart lives on.
A diligent heart will be pure.\u00a0
To be pure in heart is to be righteous.\u00a0
To be righteous will identify a believer as one with integrity.\u00a0
A believer with integrity lives the life for God.\u00a0
The pure in the heart is not wicked and will see God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prayer for today: <\/strong>Ask God to enable your eyes and heart to keep on positive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
