Neal’s Lit Word

Title: “Heart Expansion”

Scripture: Psalms 119:32

32 I will run the way of Your commandments [with purpose],
For You will give me a heart that is willing.

Observation: What is God saying to me?

I have the ability to expand your heart so you can run with purpose and strength. The start of this heart expansion is a choice, a desire and inward motivation that causes you to lean into Me. It begins with inward searching. Your inward search is like a spark that ignites to a flame. If you want to run with purpose, spark the fire, fan the flame, focus in faith on a future that is set on fire by the Holy Spirit.

Application: What will I do about it?

Today, let's spark fresh faith and invite the Holy Spirit to bring increased desire and willingness to be obedient to His Lit Words that He shares with us. The Lord wants to expand our hearts and give you a heart that is wholly willing to chase after Him wherever He leads you.

Prayer:

Holy Spirit, fan our flames. Light the fire. Allow us to expand and grow in our willingness to serve, follow and be friends with You. You are the Way we lean into. Not personal strength or power, rather, God’s strength and power. In Jesus’ Name… Amen!
