The Guarded Heart (Awakening Sunday 2026) - Madz Deyzel

<p>What if the walls you built to protect your heart are the very ones keeping you from healing? What if guarding your heart doesn’t mean shutting people out—but letting God in?</p><p>This message explores the quiet caves we retreat to when life wounds us—burnout, bruises, brokenness, and betrayal—and the gentle invitation of God to step back into the light. With honesty and depth, it speaks to the vows we’ve made, the defenses we’ve formed, and the thoughts we’ve believed. Whether you&#39;re longing for healing, wrestling with trust, or tired of carrying the weight alone, this isn’t just about understanding your heart—it’s about encountering the One who restores it. It’s a call to move from survival to surrender, from guarded living to Spirit-led freedom.</p><p><strong>Scriptures:</strong><br>1 Kings 19:9–10; Proverbs 4:23; 2 Corinthians 10:4–5; Psalm 42:5; 2 Thessalonians 3:8–13; Luke 4:38–43; Matthew 12:20; Isaiah 61:1; Luke 4:18; Psalm 41:9; Micah 7:5–7; John 2:24–25; Matthew 26:36–46</p><p>Connect with us:</p><p>Website: https://lincchurch.com/hilton-campus/</p><p>Instagram: https://instagram.com/linc_hilton</p>
