There are times as we walk with God, we become discouraged because our hearts are not as pure before the Lord as we would like it to be. We might say: “God would do so much more with me if only I had a pure heart.” Well, don’t despair! Remember that only God alone can do a great work in us as we walk with Him daily through His Son Jesus Christ! God said to the Israelites: “I will give them one heart and I will put a new spirit within them, and take the stony heart out of their flesh, and give them a heart of flesh.“ Ezequiel 11:19 God is more than able to change a hardened heart into a softened heart towards Him! Rest, rely and wait on Him! For as you seek Him, you’ll find Him waiting to minister to you and change the hard areas of the heart, to the heart of softness that you will desire to commune with Him and walk in victory!
Psalm 51:10 "Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me." Blessings,

The Mission for Prayer For The Harvest Ministries is to encourage and assist the body of Christ corporately and in their personal lives to come back to our first love, Jesus Christ, through the teaching of God’s Word and the literal doing of crying out to God in prayer. Psalm 127:1 "Unless the LORD builds the house, its builders labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchmen stand guard in vain."
What a great perspective and reminder. Thanks, Brother Don! :)
