Faith, The Lifestyle of Saints
The Soul of Faith, Your Heart
When you see the word "heart" in a passage of scripture it is usually referring to the soul of man; in most instances they are interchangeable. The natural state of the heart is wicked or ungodly because man is born in SIN, Self-Inflected Nonsense (Psalm 51:5, Romans 3:23, Ephesians 2:3). For a heart to emit righteousness it has to be a soul that has been reborn in the Spirit, in the image of Christ Jesus.
Designations of the heart believing bears evidence of a transformation, and the mouth that makes a confession of Christ, is one that has accepted salvation (Ezekiel 11:19, 36:26; 2 Corinthians 5:17, Romans 12:1-21, Hebrew 4:12). God has given us choice, the power to choose, free will, which is motivated by our seat of conscience to select Jesus as our Savior or to remain in our natural state of wickedness (1 Corinthians 10:13, Galatians 5:13). When there is a conviction of the soul, the Spirit awakens and rallies the part of God in us that recognizes that it's not about us, but God Almighty (Romans 14:22, 2 Timothy 3:16, 2 Corinthians 7:10).
Our salvation is not just personal but corporate, so that; the Kingdom of God can and will grow and abound in this present time and give Glory to the Almighty, Creator of Heaven and Earth.
Romans 10:10
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
The LORD (our) Peace, Jehovah Shalom (Judges 6:24); we thank You for the convictions of our hearts where our feelings are sacrificed for Your Greatness and Your Glory. We praise You for the volition wherein we choose Christ and not Self-Inflected Nonsense. We decree and declare blessings upon those who know the Way, The Truth, and the Light, so that; the souls of men would be pierced and brought to the altar of sacrifice laid and find redemption in the rebirth of the Spirit for the Glory of God's Kingdom. Now, for the sake of the Kingdom and for the Glory of God, we petition, with an anointing in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord, and Savior, Amen.
