"The Mouth and Heart Connection"

“The Mouth and Heart Connection”

 

If you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.  One believes with the heart, resulting in righteousness, and one confesses with the mouth, resulting in salvation.       Romans 10:9-10

 

The MOUTH, through speech, speaks the content of one’s HEART.  The MOUTH exemplifies the character of a person.  It reveals the intentions of the HEART, sometimes, not meaning to.  Nevertheless, once words are spoken, they can never be taken back.  Thus the intentions of the HEART are spoken of by the MOUTH.

 

The MOUTH can also reveal the SPIRITUAL part of mankind.  Jesus said, “A good man produces good out of the good storeroom of his heart.  An evil man produces evil out of the evil storeroom, for his mouth speaks from the over flow of the heart.”   (Luke 6:45)   Jesus also says: …”What comes out of the mouth comes from the heart, and this defiles a man.”  (Matthew 15:18)  

 

So, in order to become a Child of God, clothed in RIGHTEOUSNESS, you must have a CLEAN-UP of your HEART and MOUTH.  Paul told the Romans:  “If you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.  One believes with the heart, resulting in righteousness, and one confesses with the mouth, resulting in salvation.”  (Romans 10:9-10)  Have you CONFESSED with your MOUTH and BELIEVED in your HEART?  Or are you living an EVIL existence, headed for an ETERNITY in Hell, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY of ESCAPING.

 

If this is your destiny, you have the opportunity NOW, to change it by allowing JESUS to CLEAN UP your HEART and MOUTH.  You do that by:  TURNING AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURNING TO God, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART that Jesus died for YOU.  Then CONFESSING your sins to Him, and asking Him for His FORGIVENESS.  BELIEVING that God raised Him from the dead, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you before God.  Then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and His RIGHTEOUSNESS, and have a GOOD, CLEAN, MOUTH and HEART connection.   Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and coming SOON!!!
