Our spiritual progress as believers in Christ depends on the degree to which our heart is turned toward God so that we may be pure in heart, single in seeking Him, allowing Him to remove anything that is not of Him and infuse us with Him; we all need to aspire to have an enlarged […]
The Pure in Heart Seek God with a Single Heart: they See God and Deny Themselves
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God; if we are pure in heart in seeking God, we will see God, we will behold Him and be infused with Him, we will be constituted with God, we will be transformed, and we will deny ourselves, even abhor ourselves. Lord Jesus, grant us […]
Spiritual Progress Depends on our Hunger: Continually Emptied out to be Filled Up
All spiritual progress depends on our hunger, and unless we are freshly emptied in spirit to be filled with the Lord, we are indifferent to our own spiritual life and are in spiritual stagnation; God is helping us to progress with the Lord by giving us difficulties for us to open more deeply.
