OUTSIDE REFLECTION IS FROM THE IMAGINATION OF THE HEART

MI DAILY DEVOTION 06- 25-11 (Deuteronomy 29:19)
OUTSIDE REFLECTION IS FROM THE IMAGINATION OF THE HEART
“And it come to pass, when he heareth the words of this curse, that he bless himself in his heart, saying, I shall have peace, though I walk in the imagination of mine heart, to add drunkenness to thirst:”
Jesus said, “The abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.” Maxwell Maltz said; “For imagination sets the goal “picture” which our automatic mechanism works on. We act, or fail to act, not because of “will”, as is so commonly believed, but because of imagination.” Grace Speare said; “When you think something, you think in pictures. You don’t think a thought in words. You think a picture a picture that expresses your thought. Working with this picture will produce it into your experience.” (The Best of Success, A Treasury of Ideas by Wynn Davis)
We are saying and doing what we have stored 18’ (inches) from the top of our head which is our heart. It’s from our heart and we picture it in our mind and the last thing we know; either we’re saying it or doing it already. (Jeremiah 23:17- 18) 17- “They say still unto them that despise me, The LORD hath said, Ye shall have peace; and they say unto every one that walketh after the imagination of his own heart, No evil shall come upon you. 18- For who hath stood in the counsel of the LORD, and hath perceived and heard his word? who hath marked his word, and heard it?”
