2.23.10

Leviticus 14:1-57

Mark 6:30-56

6 ⁵¹ Then He went up into the boat to them, and the wind ceased. And they were greatly amazed in themselves beyond measure, and marveled. ⁵² For they had not understood about the loaves, because their heart was hardened.

John – They were amazed IN THEMSELVES beyond measure, and marveled. For the had not understood… because of their hearts being hard. Having a hard heart keeping you from understanding the things of God and keeps you searching for natural answers to spiritual problems.

Psalm 40:1-10

40 ⁶ Sacrifice and offering You did not desire;
My ears You have opened.
Burnt offering and sin offering You did not require.

John – God does not want sacrifices He wants our heart, not the beating thing inside our bodies but the FOCUSED, ATTENTION and AFFECTION of our will.

Proverbs 10:11-12

10 ¹¹ The mouth of the righteous is a well of life,
But violence covers the mouth of the wicked.
¹² Hatred stirs up strife,
But love covers all sins.

John – Just think our mouths can be a WELL of LIFE, we know the words we say have POWER, but a well of life…. Amazing God teach us to recognize the power of our words DAILY!
