(a chapter from my book, Raising Kings)
Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they will see God.
The highest being in the universe is God. God is known by His character traits of omnipresence, omniscience, and omnipotence. He knows the past, the present and the future. He knows where He is heading. If we want to lead people, follow God – follow Jesus. In order to follow God, we must be able to see Him. From Matthew 5:8, Jesus speaks from the Sermon on the Mount: Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. The pure in heart will have the clarity of sight to see God. In order to lead people, we need the clarity of sight to define and see the future vision and strategic direction of where we are heading. We must have the clarity of sight to at least see the next step.
Create in me a pure heart, O God,
and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Sin makes the heart cloudy. Sin impairs our sight. We need to ask God to create in us a pure heart, and renew a steadfast spirit within us.
May the grace and peace of Abba Father the Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
Thank You, Abba Father, Lord Jesus Christ.
In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
