Outflow - Out of the Abundance of the Heart


OUTFLOW out-flow (out-flo) n. 1. the act of flowing out. 2. that which flows out. 3. any outward movement.

A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks. (Luke 6:45) What is the outflow of your heart? Do the words you speak bring forth good or evil? Is the outflow from your lips blessing or cursing?...life or death? Which will you choose? God gives us the answer to these in His Word. He says: "Choose life!" "Speak forth blessings!" "Do that which is good!" But first, oh God, let our heart be purified by Your Word.
