What are my hearts desires?
This is the question i awoke to a few mornings ago.
Not what should they be, but rather, truly what are they.
Over the last several days of talking with Father God,
Christ Jesus and the Holy Spirit,
taking the time to examen my motives for different desires i have,
i fond many of my desires are selfish desires,
and that i am a sinner by nature.
But also found that deep inside me is a strong desire to please GOD,
God the Father, God the Son and the Holy Spirit of God.
Also recognized in me laziness, procrastination, and fear.
Fear of both failing and of succeeding.
The Holy Spirit placed it on my heart that what i need to be asking for are:
The Spirit of wisdom and understanding,
The Spirit of counsel and strength,
The Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the LORD.
That i will delight in the fear of the LORD,
That i will not judge by what my eyes see,
but rather by what the Spirit of the LORD shows me,
That i will not make decisions by what my ears hear from the world,
but rather by what the Holy Spirit is saying to me,
That i may wear the belt of righteousness,
And that i may wear the belt of faithfulness.
He, the Holy Spirit,
also let me see that i have no need to fear what is happening in the world,
that He the Holy Spirit is with me.
But that as i fear the LORD,
the comfort that HE the Holy Spirit brings will increase.
The Spirit of GOD:
Spirit of life,
Spirit of wisdom,
Spirit of God gives;
wisdom, understanding, knowledge, all kinds of craftsmanship,
Proverbs 20:27
The spirit of man is the lamp of the LORD,
Searching all the innermost parts of his being.
Allowing the LORD to show you your innermost parts,
your innermost thoughts and desires can be a bit
overwhelming.
For the Spirit of the LORD is given to us by Father God
That through confidence in Him,
we may share the good news of Christ Jesus with those He brings into our lives,
that with His word we may comfort those who are troubled,
brokenhearted,
to proclaim liberty to those held captives,
those held as prisoners in sin.
To proclaim the return of our LORD.
To comfort those who mourn.
Words Jesus has spoken to those who believe in Him as LORD: John 14:15-17
“If you love Me,
you will keep My commandments.
I will ask the Father,
and He will give you another Helper,
that He may be with you forever;
that is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive,
because it does not see Him or know Him,
but you know Him because He abides with you and will be in you.
Psalms 143:10
Teach me to do Your will,
For You are my God;
Let Your good Spirit lead me on level ground.
Luke 12:12
for the Holy Spirit will teach you in that very hour
what you ought to say.
John 14:26
“But the Helper, the Holy Spirit,
whom the Father will send in My name,
He will teach you all things,
and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you.
The Bible is the living word of GOD,
of Christ our LORD, Jesus,
It is Him speaking to us,
He tells us He has asked the Father to send us the Spirit,
That He may dwell in us, to open our eyes,
our ears and our hearts to our LORD and what He is saying to us.

SO, i pray LORD Jesus have the Holy Spirit;
Fill me with the Spirit of wisdom and understanding,
the Spirit of counsel and strength,
the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the LORD.
that i will delight in the fear of the LORD,
that i will not judge by what my eyes see,
but rather by what the Spirit of the LORD shows me,
that i will not make decisions by what my ears hear from the world,
but rather by what the Holy Spirit is saying to me,
that i may wear the belt of righteousness,
and that i may wear the belt of faithfulness.
Search my heart Oh LORD cleans me of all unholy things
and direct my path to the narrow path that leads to the small gate.
Amen and Amen.
}}}
i will leave you with this:
If one fears the ability of mankind,
How can one honestly say,
My trust is in the LORD?
He who has an ear,
let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches,
to the believers who are in Christ our LORD.
