CHAPTER 4

THE ATTITUDES OF THE HEART
I

n the last chapter, we saw that in the journey of prosperity, perhaps
more than in any other walk of life, we need to carefully guard our
hearts. Consequently, at the outset, the first thing that we must do is
deal with the hidden attitudes of our hearts.

Therefore, in this chapter, we will explore certain key concepts from the
Scriptures that are foundational to preparing the heart for the blessing
of prosperity. Very little commentary has been added to the Scriptures
quoted here because my prayer is that, as we meditate on the Word of
God, the Word itself will do its own transforming work; moulding and
changing the attitudes of our heart.

This meditation on the Word will also solidify some of the principles that
we considered in Part 1. So, let’s go slowly and read each heart condition
a few times through, taking time to soak your heart in the life-giving
Word of God.

“Serve him with wholehearted devotion and a willing mind,
for the Lord searches every heart
and understands every motive behind the thoughts.”
(1 Chronicles 28:9)
