7 April 2025 Word by Senior Pastor, Pastor Darien Choo

Today’s Inspiration: “Search me [thoroughly], O God, and know my heart; Test me and know my anxious thoughts; And see if there is any wicked or hurtful way in me, And lead me in the everlasting way.” Psalms‬ ‭139‬:‭23‬-‭24‬ ‭AMP.‬‬ As deep calls upon the deep, the matter of our hearts is a mystery. Nobody can know their heart except God and their spirit, and nobody can know their spirit except the Spirit of God. 1 Corinthians 2:13. David knew that only God can search his heart deeply. What is in your heart? Man will not know their own ways except God, revealing by His Holy Spirit.

I remember when the Lord first revealed the things in my heart, I repented for so many things just like a house broken, defiled, dirty and ruin which need His new renovation. I was a sinner saved by His grace. Transformation can only happen in us when we are truthful to God and to ourselves. Only the truth can set us free. John 8:32. Have we done things that hurt our family or others? Or have we took offence of others in anger and bitterness? Are we more like Christ since the day we are saved? If our desire is expecting others to change it’s like a bottomless pit. We have to be first changed by Christ and Him alone. For where your treasure is, there your heart [your wishes, your desires; that on which your life centers] will be also. Matthew‬ ‭6‬:‭21‬ ‭Are they in Christ Jesus?

Prayer: O Lord my God, change my heart O God, make it new which desires only you. Give me clean hands and a pure heart. Let there be a new renovation in my spirit, soul and body. You are the author and finisher of my faith. Let this new season coming to the Passover Seder be of a deep reflection, repentance, reformation, and renewal of my mind, to have a mind of Christ, in Jesus' Name, Amen.
