Search me, O God & know my heart; test me & know my anxious thoughts, see if there is any offensive way in me, & lead me in the way everlasting (Ps. 139: 23 & 24 NIV)
This is a big part of getting serious about your relationship with Christ. When you get to the point where you ask God to search you & know your heart. When you get there, don't just ask it once, ask it daily. You want all the negative stuff out. It's holding you back & keeping you from everything God has for you. The more we seek a closer relationship with Christ, the more we need to ask God to remove anything between us & Him. It could be a temptation, addiction, doubt, fear, anything contrary to Gods character. If you ask,God will reveal them to you. He might convict you, it might be through His word, a message, a word from a Christian friend, etc.. The key is you have to be open to HIS leading & be willing to remove yourself from defending your flaws. You have to want to be more like Christ than you want to defend what flaws God reveals to you. So I encourage you to pray this today & begin your transformation.
