Emotions are beautiful and can bring so much depth to our lives.  But do not trust your emotions. Although they are not inherently good or bad, but it’s important to remember that the behaviors we exhibit due to our emotions can be either constructive or destructive. When we act out of love, joy, and peace towards others and ourselves, it can brighten someone’s day and leave us feeling fulfilled.

When We Allow Negative Emotions Like Anger Or Jealousy To Control Us, They Can Cause Great Harm Us And Those Around Us. Do Not Trust Your Emotions. It’s Comforting To Know Your Intellect Needs To Runs Your Emotions, And That All Emotions Should Not Dominate Your Intellect, Since They Are Not Always Based On Truth!

Even the tough emotions – but ultimately, God must hold them accountable. Let God’s word guide you in checking your emotions before acting on them blindly. Remember: your feelings aren’t meant to rule over you; rather they should serve as markers for deeper truths about yourself that need attention! ~ Bill Greguska  

James 1:5  If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.

What Emotions Motivated Jesus? Do Not Trust Your Emotions!

 

 

There Are Five Different Basic Temperaments:

Many types of emotions! NeedEncouragement.com

Emotions are sometimes, too often, a knee-jerk response.

Each temperament is divided into three categories. While it’s impossible to determine your exact character in each category without a complete analysis, you may recognize yourself in one of these overviews.

1. Phlegmatic:  This temperament is the most peaceful of all.  They are excellent negotiators but tend not to want to expend too much energy.
2. Supine:  This temperament aims to please everyone.  They are gentle in spirit but need recognition for their services.  They often say yes when they prefer to say no.
3. Sanguine: This extroverted temperament is invigorated by being around people. They love to talk, but they can also experience severe mood swings.
4. Melancholy: These people tend to focus on their imperfections and shortcomings.  They are very private people and need alone time to regenerate.
5. Choleric:  This temperament is fast-paced.  When in balance, they can be great leaders.  If not handled correctly, they can be dominating bullies.

Don’t Let Your Emotions Fool You ~ Use The Armor Of God!

Ephesians 6:10-17 

 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.

For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 

Therefore put on the full armor of God so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and, after you have done everything, to stand.  

Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,  and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.  

In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.  Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

Turning Your Emotions And Feelings Into Faith!

 

Do Not Trust Your Emotions!

Do your emotions reflect what God’s Word teaches? If not, you are heading for big trouble or already there!

Your feelings are like a caboose on a train. Feelings must follow the engine (intellect), not emotions (the caboose). The leading needs to be the intellect. God gives us a brain to make wise choices, and from those wise choices come good emotions and contentment when we follow God’s will.  But if we allow our feelings to lead us, we often get derailed and crash. People often let their feelings run the train, which leads to derailment because of a lack of wisdom. God had taught us in his word. Bottom line, keep your emotions under the control of your intellect and follow God in your everyday life, for with prayer, God will give you your direction in life!

It has been said to follow your heart; I encourage you to follow the Lord instead. When you follow your heart, remember what it says in Jeremiah 17:9  . The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it? For these reasons and many other reasons. I choose not to allow my emotions to control me but instead follow Jesus Christ and His teaching from God’s word, which has all the answers we need. ~Bill Greguska

 

 

Are Your Emotions Healthy?

Emotions Need To Be Kept In Check!

Do Not Trust Your Emotions!

Emotions! NeedEncouragement.com

Emotions are not what make the right decisions. Instead, it’s God’s word and facts. Feelings can be very confusing and not something to base wise choices upon.

Feelings we have are not necessarily right or wrong, good or bad. But what we do with some of our so-called “feelings” is essential. For example, in the Bible, we should not allow the sun to go down on our anger.

I’m not saying anger is evil, but we need to control all our negative emotions, such as anger. God’s word also says in Proverbs 29:11 Fools give full vent to their rage, but the wise bring calm in the end.

There is no room for love when we harbor hatred in our hearts. Keeping our negative emotions in control can be impossible to do on our own. That’s where prayer and Christian fellowship with others come in. Negative emotions can do a ton of damage, not only in relationships but also in your life. 

Satan Never Rests!

Emotions... NeedEncouragement.com

Emotions are often misleading when it comes to making wise choices.

Satan tries to confuse us, tempt us, lie to us, steal from us, kill us, and ultimately destroy us. Because Satan hates God, he wants to hurt God by harming us. Since we are at war with Satan, we need to use our intelligence rather than emotions.

Always use God’s word as a shield to fight and also his word as a sword. Always keep God’s wisdom, God in control over our feelings because our belief is like shifting sands, which are not good at all to build upon.

It says in 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have the divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.

Proverbs 29:11 ESV
