(Mirror Bible)<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-purple-color\">What kind of lifestyle do you have?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Have you ever heard someone say, \u201cGod knows my heart\u201d? Often a person uses that excuse when she\/he has done or said something they know was displeasing. In that time and in all times, God <strong><u>does know<\/u><\/strong> your heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">Psalm 139:1-4 Lord, you know everything there is to know about me. 2 You perceive every movement of my heart and soul, and you understand my every thought before it even enters my mind. 3\u20134 You are so intimately aware of me, Lord. You read my heart like an open book and you know all the words I\u2019m about to speak before I even start a sentence! You know every step I will take before my journey even begins. (The Passion Translation TPT)<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There probably have been times when someone told you they felt misunderstood, misquoted and\/or mistreated by you (and there will be more). Maybe because of something you said or did. It was not your intent for your actions to be received the way they were. Isn\u2019t it a wonderful thing to acknowledge God\u2019s omniscience and feel a sense of peace sweep over you? As you stand fully clothed in the armor of God, you can say with confidence, \u201cGod knows my heart\u201d. It is not a pass for sin, it is God\u2019s covering grace. Your lifestyle attests not only to the God withholding what you deserve but also God empowering you to live as He wills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">1 Peter 3:10-11 For let him who wants to enjoy life and see good days [good\u2014whether apparent or not] keep his tongue free from evil and his lips from guile (treachery, deceit). 11 Let him turn away from wickedness and shun it, and let him do right. Let him search for peace (harmony; undisturbedness from fears, agitating passions, and moral conflicts) and seek it eagerly. [Do not merely desire peaceful relations with God, with your fellowmen, and with yourself, but pursue, go after them!] (Amplified Bible, Classic Edition AMPC)<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Please agree with me as I pray:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p><em><em>Father, I desire to give You glory in how I live. I thank You because I can honestly say I want to please You. Whether or not I say it, You know my heart. You know exactly what\u2019s in it. You search my heart. When it is time for me to make choices, You remind me what You want and desire for me. I repent for those times when I chose me and not You. I\u2019m grateful I can\u2019t fool You. Others may look at me and draw their own conclusions, judge my actions or misinterpret my intentions, but You know. Sometimes my hands make mistakes, but my heart is pure before You. It is the heart You saved and the heart You hold. As submit to You, You mold and shape my attitude and my feelings. You are such an awesome God. I pray my life is a testament to how awesome You are\u2026<\/em><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2 Corinthians 1:12 The testimony of our conscience is the source of our joy!
