ABBA FATHER; MAKE MY HEART PURE

“One who LOVES A PURE HEART and WHO SPEAKS WITH GRACE will have the king for a friend.” (Pro. 22:11) [This must be an honest person, one that loves pureness of heart and dislikes all uncleanness, not only pure from fleshly lusts, but from all deceit and dishonesty, from all selfishness and threatening schemes, one who takes care to approve himself A PERSON OF SINCERITY. This person is just and fair, with a great attitude, and enjoys nothing more than in keeping their own conscience clean and void of offence and must also be able to speak with a good grace, not to speak flatteries, but to deliver their sentiments decently and resourcefully, in language clean and smooth!] “Who may ascend the mountain of the LORD? Who may stand in his holy place? THE ONE WHO HAS CLEAN HANDS AND A PURE HEART, who does not trust in an idol or swear by a false god. They will receive blessing from the LORD and vindication from God their Savior.” (Psa. 24:3-5) [Vindication: justification, validation or confirmation from our Abba Father; we are YOURS, we belong to YOU!] “Blessed are the pure in heart, for THEY WILL SEE GOD.” (Matt. 5:8) [Our constant pureness is an indication to our Lord and savior that we are ready to stand before Him!] “Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth so that you have sincere love for each other, LOVE ONE ANOTHER DEEPLY, FROM THE HEART.” (1 Pet. 1:22) [This godly love is what it will take to motivate us to earnestly pray for one another!] “…you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, GOD’S SPECIAL POSSESSION, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. Once you were not a people, but now YOU ARE THE PEOPLE OF GOD; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.” (1 Pet. 2:9-10)

Be blessed as you praise The Lord, knowing that THE PURE IN HEART WILL SEE GOD!
