A Clean Heart Is A Prosperous Life

The power of purity

Did you know that your purity will prosper you? Jesus said, "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God" (Matthew 5:8). The Greek katharoi tē kardia (καθαροὶ τῇ καρδίᾳ) means “clean in the heart.” This is not outward religiosity. It’s not about rule-keeping. It’s about inward transformation. David prayed, “Create in me a clean heart, O God.” That’s the cry of the pure-hearted. And here’s the amazing thing: when your heart is clean, washed by the blood of Christ, you begin to see God. Not just someday in heaven, but here, in the beauty of His Word, in the quiet moments of prayer, in the face of others. You know that you are spiritually prosperous when your heart is clean.
