The Heart is the Production Centre

This is the heart of a man/woman who does not know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. This is the starting line for each and every one of us. When we come into the kingdom of God our hearts are wrecked, damaged, broken, full of fear, full of lust and every evil thing. When we receive the Lord, the journey of restoration and discovery begins. The restoration is done by the Holy Spirit as we spend time with the Lord and we allow him to speak into our hearts. The discovery comes as we allow the word entrance in to our hearts. The word of God is a hammer that breaks down the walls of separation and fear. The word is a fire that burns up every dross, that is the hatred, bitterness, offense, shame, condemnation. The meaning of the word dross is waste, rubbish and everything of low value and quality. I am sure you will agree that hatred and bitterness is of low value, as are the other things that is in our hearts. They never add any value to our lives. Actually, they devalue us and take away the best parts from our lives.

The Holy Spirit comes in and begins to take faith together with the word you hear each day and each Sunday as the word is preached, and begins the production of a nothing missing, nothing broken life. This is the word “Sozo”, to heal, to save, to rescue, to make whole. Love is the cement that holds together the word of God in our hearts and begins to transform us from the inside out. The Production line starts on the inside and the delivery of the finished work or product of the Holy Spirit is delivered from the tongue with which you speak and the renewed mind that you have allowed to be transformed by the Holy Spirit. The heart is indeed the production center.

A believer, a thriver yields to the working of the Holy Spirit so the will of God is fulfilled in their life. They make a decision to allow their hearts to be pliable and a production center for the Holy Spirit to make us into a whole new man. This new man’s production center is evidence shown to the world, what our God can do. Their words are the products of this new life, their wisdom is a reflection of the heart of God for others to hear and be transformed as well. The gratefulness becomes the music that sounds to the outside world to come and listen to the voice of the message of the gospel. Souls are attracted to Jesus because we the production center, are delivering the right goods to the right customers, the message of the good news of Jesus Christ, from a heart that is changed, from the heart of stone to a heart of flesh.

The Thriver allows their heart to be a production center for the Holy Spirit to shine forth the glory of God.
