It contrasts this with the deceitfulness of the human heart in verses 9 and 10, highlighting the need for God's light to reveal and guide us in truth. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CONTENT ------------------------------------------------------------------------ One, and think of what's written here, because the tree has reached out its roots to the river, it never ceases to yield fruit. So there's a lot we have seen just in one verse, in Jeremiah 17 verse 8. It reaches out to the river, to the roots to the river, and so it's not afraid, and it's always fresh, never anxious, and never stops yielding fruit. And it goes on to speak about the heart in verse 9 and 10. The heart is more deceitful than anything else. That's another thing we have to learn. The next thing the Lord teaches us is, if you don't allow God to give you light, you can absolutely fool yourself. ======================================================================== Video: https://sermonindex2.b-cdn.net/sa_2xXu3rqw.mp4 Source: https://sermonindex.net/speakers/zac-poonen/keeping-yourself-from-deception/ ========================================================================
