“Blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see God.” Matthew 5:8 NKJV
The eyes are a major gateway to the human heart, it absorbs information, the eyes are not tired of seeing - Ecclesiastes 1:8.
What we see affects our heart and emotions positively or negatively.
To attain or maintain a pure heart on an ongoing basis, we need to adopt the prayers of David when he prayed & said: “Turn away my eyes from looking at worthless things, And revive me in Your way.” Psalms 119:37 NKJV.
David knew the power of the eye, as his eyes had previously landed him in trouble.
To see God, we need a pure heart which means you have to deliberately guard your eyes, guard your vision and guard your heart.
Father, please grant me the grace to always turn my eyes from looking at worthless things IJN.
Shalom!
