How wicked are our hearts today?
Psalm 7:8-11} The Lord shall judge the people: judge me, oh Lord, according to mine integrity that is in me.
Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous of God trieth the heart and reins.
My defence is of God, which saveth the upright in heart.
God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.
In these verses King David was asking God to judge the hearts of the wicked people, then King David asking God to judge his heart too. To see if there is any wickedness (sin) in it, his heart and reins (the way he leads his life). Are you willing and ready to ask God to search your heart for all the wickedness (sin) that keeps you from doing God's work for Him? Are you content to say in the wickedness (sin) you do?
Their was a say a while back " what would Jesus do? " Let me ask you this? If God was in person next to you today, all 24 hours, what would you do different? Would you talk different, dress different, not watch some of the TV shows or movies? At work would act differently or listen to different kind of music, or would you like to have your friends around him and you?
We need to remember God is with us 24/7. God is always around watching us. It is easy to forget because we can not see Him, but God is still there watching us.
Thanks to Jesus Christ we can be forgiven for all our sins that we do. We have to listen better to the Holy Spirit in our heart to know when we are sinning, or when we already did. It is easy to compare our self to someone else to say we are not so wicked, but if use the whole King James Bible to judge our selves, we all fall short of God standards. Only through Jesus Christ can we be with God.
