Does the King have dominion of your heart?

\u201cI have told you all this so that you may have peace in me.\xa0 Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows.\xa0 But take heart, because I have overcome the world.\u201d
John 16:33 NLT

"Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life."
Proverbs 4:23 (NLT)

\u201cWhen Jesus had again crossed over by boat to the other side of the lake, a large crowd gathered around him while he was by the lake. Then one of the synagogue leaders, named Jairus, came, and when he saw Jesus, he fell at his feet. He pleaded earnestly with him, \u201cMy little daughter is dying. Please come and put your hands on her so that she will be healed and live.\u201d So Jesus went with him. A large crowd followed and pressed around him.
Mark 5:21-24 (NIV)

\u201cAnd a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years. She had suffered a great deal under the care of many doctors and had spent all she had, yet instead of getting better she grew worse. When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, because she thought, \u201cIf I just touch his clothes, I will be healed.\u201d Immediately her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering.\u201d
Mark 5:25-29 (NIV)

Let your desperation change your destination.

\u201cFor his Spirit joins with our spirit to affirm that we are God\u2019s children. And since we are his children, we are his heirs. In fact, together with Christ we are heirs of God\u2019s glory. But if we are to share his glory, we must also share his suffering.\u201d
Romans 8:16-17 (NLT)

\u201cI write to you, dear children, because you know the Father. I write to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God lives in you, and you have overcome the evil one.\u201d
1 John 2:13-14 (NIV)

\u201cDon\u2019t be afraid, for I am with you. Don\u2019t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.\u201d
Isaiah 41:10 (NLT)

\u201cWe are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed. We are perplexed, but not driven to despair. We are hunted down, but never abandoned by God. We get knocked down, but we are not destroyed.\u201d
2 Corinthians 4:8-9 (NLT)

\u201cDo not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God\u2019s will is\u2014his good, pleasing and perfect will.\u201d
Romans 12:2 (NLT)

\u201cThe thief\u2019s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy.\xa0 My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life.\u201d
John 10:10 (NLT)

Then Jesus said, \u201cCome to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.

\u201cFrom one person God made all nations who live on earth, and he decided when and where every nation would be. God has done all this, so that we will look for him and reach out and find him. He isn\u2019t far from any of us.\u201d
Acts 17:26-27 (CEV)
