Matthew 5:8 ... Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
Exhoration: (Joan Boney ... apostle/prophet)
The pure in heart ... those who can say and truly mean, "Not my will but Thy will be done."
Most people are led by their flesh, by what they think, by what they want. Many are led by ambition.
The pure in heart would be those who know they are dead with Christ and are simply waiting for HIM. This world holds no real joy for them. The word of God is a joy and they delight each time God reveals a portion of HIS word to them.
They labor to enter into HIS rest by prayer and by trusting in God.
It is an ongoing work as long as we live on this earth.
And we have to guard our hearts with all diligence for the world tries to enter into our hearts through thoughts. But we remember what God has said and by this we are set straight again.
Jesus said ... Jn. 3 ... Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
Be careful: There are many who come saying Jesus is Lord but they are not born of the Spirit of God and they will deceive many.
Jesus said: Take heed that no man deceive you. 5For many shall come in my name, saying, I (Jesus) am Christ; and shall deceive many. Mt. 24
Just because they say, "Jesus is Lord", doesn't mean they are of God. Many will come saying this and will deceive many.
Also we read about them in Jude ... But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; 18How that they told you there should be mockers (imitators) in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. 19These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.
They try to copy the real people of God but they are always a little off and they can't understand what we, who are of God, are saying when we speak because they do not have the Spirit of God.
