3 Ways Which Satan Uses Our Feelings Against Us?
The evil one can use feelings to: 1) tempt us, 2) misdirect us, and 3) eventually master us. Thus, we need to interpret feelings rightly and use it for the glory of God.
Is It Wrong To Want To Feel Good?
It is not wrong to want to feel good, but it would be wrong if we shut our spiritual mechanism whenever we do not feel good. We must not reduce ourselves to feelings alone, as we are each a glorious personality created by God.
Is competition always bad?
In our pursuit of heavenly greatness, we should compete to know Jesus’ heartbeat better as well as to be closer to Him. When God wants us to run the Christian race, He wants us to win the prize He prepared for us.
Pursue A Different Greatness
We all love to be great. The Lord is also pleased that we desire greatness, but not the kind of yearning corrupted by sin, which only seeks self-glorification. Indeed, we have to be sanctified by the truth and seek to be great in the eyes of God.
Painful Grace
The grace of God is free, but also painful. That painful grace will cleanse us, refine us, and consecrate us, so that we can boldly testify the gospel of grace and truth.
Wounds developed through Disbelief
We are all wounded, and our wounds are a result of a deep spiritual problem. At the root of our wounds is disbelief. Thus, it is impossible to overcome our wounds without the gospel.
Beautiful Mess
The battle is strong when we face people who do not accept or reject our witnessing and pastoring. But how can we be made strong yet not through human intervention? How can we get out of a grand idea of the grace of God?
Faith Produced Through Sufferings
People nowadays feel that spiritually being energised and recharged equals to being powerfully anointed. Yet, when they face a little bit of sufferings, they fall.
Use Our Feelings Rightly
Feelings can snowball into temptations, give wrong vibes and master you. But if you use feelings correctly, you will overcome discouragements, win youths over, and face realities of people’s temperaments constantly.
Pursue Heavenly Greatness
The grace of God makes us meek and humble, but the grace of God also makes us serve more, love more, sacrifice more, work harder, and when fruits are borne, we do not take credit but point to the grace of Jesus.
