What Defiles a Person? (Matthew 15:10-11)
"And He called the people to him and said the them, 'Hear and understand: it is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but what come out of the mouth; this defiles a person."
One of my favorite "sisterisms" (and I can't remember who told it to me) is: let the devil push hard enough on your heal and what is truly in your heart will come out of your mouth! It is so true, how many times is it alright until we feel the pain of hurt, condemnation, accusation, shame or guilt?
One of my greatest prayers is: "Create in me a clean heart Lord, that I might not sin against you. Cast out all unclean spirits that be in my heart and fill my heart with Your Word and the Holy Spirit so the unclean spirits will not return to find my house empty but leave in fear at Your Holiness, Righteousness and Love that now dwells in my heart." Psalm 51:10, Luke 11:24-26
