As You Think in Your “Heart” not Your “Head”

Last week while speaking to an audience I said, “Open your spirit to new thoughts on the matter at hand that you’ve never considered.” “Open your spirit to new thoughts” implies that you have the ability to not just think in your “head,” but to think in your “heart.”

Solomon, who was touted as the wisest man of his day (I Kings 4:30) said, “For as he thinks in his heart, so is he. “Eat and drink!” he says to you, but his heart is not with you” (Proverbs 23:7). Notice it says, “As he thinks in his “heart”—not his “head.” It’s not all the thought traffic in your head that determines who you are. It’s the thoughts that you let get past your “head” and sink into your “heart” that make you who you are.

“As you think in your HEART so are you.”  It’s not what you say to “others” about you, but what you say to “you” about you that tells who you really are. I could tell you, “I’m blessed and highly favored,” and tell myself, “You ain’t nothin’.”  The words I spoke on the inside (in my heart to myself) would be more true than the words I mouthed to you.

In Proverbs 23:7 Solomon was actually talking about a stingy man who tells his guest, “Eat all you want,” when he’s telling himself he hopes they don’t eat up his food because those groceries were expensive. What he said to his “guest” was what he wanted his guest to think he was. What he said to “himself” was who he really was.

 Thinking in Your Heart…

  1. Thinking in your heart is taking the thoughts that come in your head that you believe (whether they be good or bad), capturing them, and storing them in your heart.
  2. Thinking in your heart is the conclusions you make to yourself (on the inside) about yourself.
  3. Thinking in your heart is what you think about when you aren’t thinking about anything.

So, what are you really like? To answer that you have to answer “How do you think in your “heart”?” The way you think in your “heart”—not in your “mind”…is what you’re really like…is how you really are.

Start paying more attention to the thoughts that you are letting sink down in your “heart.”

New Post: Nothing will appear in your “life” that doesn’t first appear in your “heart”


The things that you desire to see in your ”life” must appear in your “heart” before you will ever see them in your world. Your heart is the building contractor for everything you desire to have in your life.

Many people start outside of the structure when they are trying to produce something in their life. You have to start on the inside and build it from there.

Nothing will appear in your life that doesn’t first appear in your heart. Its appearance in your heart is the first step. After it appears inside of you then you have to start feeding that baby until it outgrows the womb that’s housing it.

Focus on building what you’re pregnant with. Put all of your emphasis on what’s inside of you. It is not necessary to put a lot of effort on an external pursuit in the beginning stage of your desire. Keep all of your focus on feeding what is being conceived inside of you, because at some point an overgrown desire only has one place to land—and that’s in your physical life.

Understanding this will remove the frustration of trying to make something happen externally that has not been born internally.

What happens when you’ve built (on the inside) what you desire to have on the outside:

  1. Obstacles will have a small voice in comparison to the loud voice of what you’ve created on the inside.
  • What would normally interrupt the progress of your destiny will appear as a pitiful opponent to your destiny when you’re pregnant with something powerful.
  • Make sure you focus on heavily feeding what you’re pregnant with.
  1. The atmosphere will welcome what is undeniable.
  • Everything in the world will begin to organize itself to support a destiny whose time has come.
  • When you’ve created something inside that belongs in your life, your entire world will begin inventorying its resources to make sure it has what it takes to support what’s already created.
  1. Every pregnancy has an inevitable birthing—in nine months…boom! …the baby is coming.
  • Everything in nature understands that what you’re pregnant with must eventually be revealed.
  • Nothing can stop it.

Let’s Talk. What are you building on the inside these days that you expect to see in your future?
