Setting Your Heart on Things Above
Love not the world and its desires, for if anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in them (1 John 2:15). This message calls you to shift your affection away from earthly systems driven by pride and lust, and to align your heart with heavenly realities. The example of Demas in 2 Timothy 4:10 shows how worldliness begins in the heart. Conduct flows from our deepest inclinations. Yet, as believers nailed to the cross with Christ, we share in His victory over the world (Galatians 6:14). Let this truth guide your thoughts and actions. Pray: Father, thank You for Your Word that sets my heart on You. I choose to live by Your standards and fulfill Your purposes. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
