Overflow Of The Heart



A good man produces good out of the good storeroom of his heart. An evil man produces evil out of the evil storeroom, for his mouth speaks from the overflow of the heart.

—Luke 6:45 (HCSB)



Heavenly Father,


Help me to ensure that the overflow of my heart always brings glory to You!


Give me the desire to fill the treasure chest of my heart with only good things—things of Truth and beauty—so that that which flows from me might be good and pleasing to You, and encouraging and helpful to others.

Help me not to allow evil thoughts and the lies of the enemy to have any place in my heart—for if they are allowed, they will corrupt all of the good treasure of my heart and leave me powerless to produce anything but evil.

Help me to consistently pour into my heart all of the good things You have made available to me through Your Word and by Your Spirit.

And make my heart overflow from Your abundance, like an unceasing spring welling up from within, leaving me with nothing but good things to declare with my mouth, as a testimony to Your love and goodness to me.


Help me to ensure that the overflow of my heart always brings glory to You!


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
