Let Every Heart Prepare Him Room
Jesus doesn’t ask for a perfect heart.
He asks for a prepared one.
Why Making Room Matters
We don’t fail to make room because we don’t love Jesus.
We fail to make room because we love what’s already in the room.
1. What Clutters My Life?
(What slows me down, distracts me, or crowds my heart)
“Let us strip off every weight that slows us down…”
— Hebrews 12:1
What habits, attitudes, distractions, or sins are taking up space
that Jesus is asking me to remove?
2. What Is in the Wrong Place?
(Good things that may be out of order)
“Seek the Kingdom of God above all else…”
— Matthew 6:33
Look at my priorities honestly:
What needs to be rearranged so Jesus is not just close, but central?
• Faith • Family. • Finances. •
Fun
3. What Do I Need to Receive?
(What Christ wants to form and grow in me)
“Just as you accepted Christ Jesus as Lord, you must continue to follow Him.”
— Colossians 2:6
Jesus never shows up empty-handed.
What is He inviting me to receive right now?
☐ Love
☐ Joy
☐ Peace
☐ Patience
☐ Kindness
☐ Goodness
☐ Faithfulness
☐ Gentleness
☐ Self-control
What gift, fruit, or work of the Spirit do I need to welcome into my life?
The Lie We Believe
“I’ll make room for Jesus when my life slows down.”
The Truth That Breaks the Lie
Jesus isn’t looking for space later. He’s looking for surrender now.
He doesn’t want to be a guest. He came to be King.
He is your Savior because He is your Lord
A Picture to Remember
The Shunammite woman made room —
and that room became a place of provision, resurrection, and life.
Making room for God always brings life where death once lived.
