[The Glory Unveiled]
A person may think their own ways are right,
but the LORD weighs the heart. ( Proverbs 21:2 )
The truth, that God is not a man is evident as it is clearly displayed in His dealings with men. As such man’s standard and unit of measurement is different from God’s. The standards of man leans on what is obvious to the senses. So that once the senses cannot capture something as factual even though it may be, the standards of man regards that unit as irrelevant. On the other hand, God uses a standard of measurement that sees what the eyes and senses cannot reveal. The standard of God sees past the actions of men into the motive that sponsors such actions. So that to God, even though someone might have done a good thing, if the heart is not right at the time of executing that good thing, the act is also null and void. This also means that, our motives; the state of our hearts are more important to God than the noise of our voices and the acts of our hands. We cannot fraud God because the intents of our hearts cannot be hidden from God. He sees the hidden things of darkness and the motives of the heart. If we know and believe this truth, then it behoves us to diligently keep our hearts.
Prayer_Bead: Omnipotent Father, Omniscient king, thank you for your word. Kindly search my heart and expose any corrupt ways and desires in me. And where I am found wanting, supply grace.
