JESUS KNOWS

Matthew 9:3-4 But some of the teachers of religious law said to themselves, "That's blasphemy! Does He think He's God?"  (4)  Jesus knew what they were thinking, so He asked them, "Why do you have such evil thoughts in your hearts?

Back in the 1930’s and 1940’s there was a radio show that started out this way, “Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows.” It featured a man with powers to cloud men’s minds. Since then it has been made into comics and even a movie. But there is one who really does know what evil lurks in our hearts and His name is Jesus.

Only you and Jesus know what goes in your mind and heart. It is good for us to remember that at all times. I love this verse… Psalms 19:14 May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing to You, O LORD, my rock and my redeemer.

Since He already knows what we are thinking it is a good idea to talk to Him about it. Be honest and when you know what you are thinking is wrong, confess it and ask Him for His help. This will please Him more than if you act like you have it all together. Psalms 51:6 But You desire honesty from the womb, teaching me wisdom even there.

Psalms 51:17 The sacrifice You desire is a broken spirit. You will not reject a broken and repentant heart, O God.

Father in heaven, You desire truth from us. Give us pure, honest hearts and boldness to speak honestly with You. Thank You that when we confess our sin You forgive us and cleanse us from all uncleanness. In Jesus Name AMEN!!!
