Chasing after God’s Heart Kingdom, the Heartbeat of God Message text: Acts 13:18-22

Heart Stats Every 34 seconds a person in the United States dies from heart disease. More than 2,500 Americans die from heart disease each day. Every 20 seconds, a person in the United States has a heart attack. At least 250,000 people die of heart attacks each year before they reach a hospital. Every 33 seconds, a person dies from Cardio Vascular Disease in the United States.

Heart (Kardia) denotes the centre of all physical and spiritual life 1) the vigor and sense of physical life 2) the centre and seat of spiritual life a) the soul or mind, as it is the fountain and seat of the thoughts, passions, desires, appetites, affections, purposes, endeavors b) of the understanding, the faculty and seat of the intelligence c) of the will and character

Understanding the heart The heart is responsible for pumping blood throughout the body. The blood is always synonymous with life. Leviticus 17:11 For the life of a creature is in the blood, (part a) Whatever is in the heart will generate what’s in the life. If there is a heart malfunction then the life will flow improperly causing everything that it flows to malfunction.

Understanding the heart Everything that you are saying is a result of what’s in your heart. Everything you are doing is result of what’s your heart. Everything that you are feeling is a result of what’s in your heart. Everything that you are seeing is a result of what’s in your heart.

Matthew 15: “Don’t you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then out of the body? 18 But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them. 19 For out of the heart come evil thoughts— murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander. 20 These are what defile a person; but eating with unwashed hands does not defile them.”

Guard your heart One of the most dangerous statements is “follow your heart.” Jeremiah 7:23 But this thing commanded I them, saying, Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people: and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well unto you. 24But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but walked in the counsels [and] in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.

Proverbs 4:23 20 My son, pay attention to what I am saying; incline your ear to my words. 21 Don't let them out of your sight, keep them deep in your heart; 22 for they are life to those who find them and health to their whole being. 23 Above everything else, guard your heart; for it is the source of life's consequences. (Complete Jewish Bible)

Heart Transplant Whenever the heart is is bad there must be a heart transplant in order to preserve life. Psalms 51:10Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. The heart of God is the heart that is absent of contamination. The heart of God is the heart that is functioning at full capacity.

Developing the heart of God 1. David understood how to serve. 2. David trusted God no matter what the obstacle looked like. 3. David understood spiritual authority. 4. David was a true worshipper. 5. David did not move until God gave him permission. 6. David had a heart of repentance.
