Morning with Ebenezer

THE DECEPTION OF THE HEART

“The human heart is the most deceitful of all things,
    and desperately wicked.
    Who really knows how bad it is?


Jeremiah 17:9 NLT

Many people have written many things concerning how we can be able to understand our hearts as human.There are many theories which suggest how a man can live and be a better human, live the life of peace and earn his salvation by doing good works.

The human heart of is the most deceitful of all things: which means it puts a cheat upon the man himself who it is, it deceives him with respect to sin; it proposes it to him under the notion of pleasure; it promises him a great deal in it, but does not yield a real pleasure to him; it is all fancy and imagination; a mere illusion and a dream; and what it gives is very short lived; it is but for a season, and ends in bitterness and death.

 The heart is desperately wicked": everything in it is wicked; the thoughts of it are evil; the imaginations of the thoughts are so; even every imagination, and that only, and always, Genesis 6:5. Who can know it? - It even hides itself from itself; so that its owner does not know it. A corrupt heart is the worst enemy the fallen creature can have; it is full of evil devices,Therefore trust not in man whose purposes are continually changing, and who is actuated only by motives of self-interest.

This morning, God wants you to know that He is the healer of your heart. He sent Son Jesus to come and redeem us from the all kinds of heart deception and wickedness.seeing it is so deceitful, it should not be trusted in; a man should neither trust in his own heart, nor in another's,Proverbs 28:26. You need to put your trust in Jesus, and handle him all the affairs of your heart.

Jesus will not fail you as your ex failed you, He will not forsake you as your friends did in the day of your great need. He won't deceive you as your heart did to you many times before. He will show you the way to the Father, He will direct you to the path of life and help you to make sounds decision in your life. Trust him with your heart.

Heavenly Father, I thank You for your Word. Lord I'm giving You my heart, I give you my soul, I will live for You alone. Help me to put my trust in You in all the days of my life. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
