Good Hearts Grow in Clean Soil

Because Jesus Christ is our righteousness, and His grace has brought righteousness to us, which we receive by faith, we are those declared righteous. And God's Word instructs us from cover to cover that we will grow only in the clean soil of the Bible, of good books, and by keeping ourselves unspotted from the world.

Are you growing in clean soil? Have you chosen willfully what Daniel chose in Daniel 1.8? That choice is the first step in growing into a mature and fruitful saint.

Have you purposed in your heart that you will not defile yourself – with a bad movie, a bad TV show, a bad magazine, a bad place of amusement or recreation, a bad relationship, a bad attitude, a bad habit? If not maybe today is the day that you will do so.
