2 Chronicles 16:9. For the eyes of the Lord move to and fro throughout the earth that He may strongly support

• Those who are doing their very best to live a good Christian life?
• Those who have experienced visions and spiritual manifestations?
• Those who are ordained to be reverends, pastors or priests?
• Those whose heart is completely His?

How easy it is to look at the outward appearance or spiritual gifts of those who profess and call themselves Christians. God looks not at the outward appearance, God looks at the heart and He strongly supports ‘Those whose heart is completely His’. This is the Lord’s one and only requirement; a completely surrendered life.

Jesus made this quite plain to all who have ears to hear. He told the rich young ruler, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.” Matthew 19:21. NKJV. The young man chose his ‘great possessions’ rather than parting with them in order to follow Jesus.

If our heart is to be completely the Lord’s then it must be completely empty of everything that competes with Him for our attention – fame, fortune, friends and family, to name but a few.
