The Heart to Mouth Connection Part 2

LUKE 6:45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.

Continuing the thought that the Heart to Mouth Connection is a Kingdom Principle, let's take a moment to examine this Scripture. First, all men have treasure laid up in their heart, it can be good treasure or bad treasure. If you are what you eat naturally, then you are what you feed on spiritually. So now might be a good time to consider what kind of treasure you've been storing away in your heart? How do you know? Because what's inside is bound to come out.

Have you ever been around someone who just seems to suck the energy right out of you? Before speaking with this type of person you may have been happy and singing a song and by the time you part ways all you want to do is crawl under the covers and hibernate. A person who does this to you consistently is what I call an "energy vampire." From such, run, run, run away! You see, this type of person is wrapped up in self. They are consumed with me, my trials, my pain, my misery. And because that evil treasure is what they store up, it's what comes out. You must be a strong person indeed if you are to withstand such a one. Keep in mind, they may not be an evil person, per se, but for a bitter season...

Negativity, bitterness, anger, self-pity, hatred, and malice are easy to spot in a person because of the Heart to Mouth Connection. Inevitably, it all comes out. But what about the good treasures?
