Purity of heart

A pure heart is one that is not contaminated by base motives. It is a undivided heart.

50,000 of the sons of Zebulun were in David’s army, and they “could draw up in battle formation with all kinds of weapons of war and helped David with an undivided heart” (1 Chronicles 12:22). Purity of heart is a military virtue.
