God's Faithfulness Is Not Based On How We Feel People Act and React Based On How We Feel. GOD RESPONDS TO OUR FAITH.

In most cases when you talk to someone or come in contact with someone their first question is how are you? They want to know how you are today. They want to know what you are feeling. God does not operate on your feelings. He does not operate on your emotions. God does not operate on your mood. God moves based on His Word, His truth, and your faith.

The thing is, our feelings fluctuate. We can feel good one minute and the very next minute we can feel bad. God and His Word change not.  There is no fluctuation in God. What He says, He means and when He commits to doing something, He does it.

Don't get me wrong, God cares about how we feel. He placed within us the ability to feel. He gave us emotions. So understand, He cares but He just doesn't base His actions on our reactions to situations in our lives.  The Bible tells us that God is compassionate and He is near to the brokenhearted but again, what He does for us is because He loves us and it is because of our faith in Him. A lot of times our emotions generate feelings that push us into a place of fear and God doesn't move on fear. Actually fear cancels out faith and it hinders the movement of God.

Understand, we can't be guided by our feelings. Our feelings shift and they change all the time. That's why our faith in God is our anchor. God is unchanging.  He wants us to trust Him no matter how we feel. He wants us to obey Him no matter how we feel. He wants us to have faith in Him no matter how we feel. Amen

Malachi 3:6

 

Amplified Bible

6 “For I am the Lord, I do not change [but remain faithful to My covenant with you]; that is why you, O sons of Jacob, have not come to an end.

Are You Holding On By Faith In God's Word When Everything In Life Seems To Be Going Contrary To What He Has Said? Is Your Faith Overriding Your Fear?

 What are you holding on to when it seems as though everything is lost?   Are you holding on to God and His unchanging Word?   Are you holding on to at least "one" Word that He has spoken to you about your life?   The promise that God has given you that says He can and will do whatever it is you need.   There are times in our lives when we have to have a firm grip on what God has said and we must be determined to not quit, give up, or give in.   We have to make sure our faith is overriding our fear. 

God is God all by Himself and His Word is true.    Out of God's mouth flows power and what He has said, He will do.   We just have to have faith in what He said to be true.   Our faith says we believe God.   We believe that He can and He will do what He said He would do. 

What do you believe today?   Do you believe that God is a Waymaker?   Do you believe that He can and will make a way?   Do you believe that God is our Healer?  Do you believe that His Word of Healing and the blood of Jesus is more powerful than any disease that is coming against your body or this world?   Do you believe that He is Jehovah Jireh, our Provider?   The One who not only knows our needs but the One who can and will meet our needs. 

What you believe matters.   You can't hold on to what you don't truly believe.   So settle it today.   Settle it within your heart and mind that you are going to trust God through it all.   Strengthen yourself today.   Build yourself up on your most holy faith, study God's Word, and be determined to not lose grip on what God has already said to be true in you and for your life.    

SCRIPTURE MEDITATION 

Hebrews 10:23

King James Version

Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for He is faithful that promised;)

Are You Staying In Faith and Is Your Faith Staying In God?

Where is your faith?   Is it in God?   Is it in people?   Is it in yourself?    Are you standing and staying in faith no matter what life brings your way?   The thing about life is we never know the road it is going to take us and we have to be people of faith that believe that no matter which way life takes us, God is with us and He is working everything out together for our good and His glory. 

We must be the ones whose faith remains secure in God.   When your faith is in what other people can do for you, you will be disappointed in people when they don't do what you want them to do.   When your faith is in what you can do for yourself, you will become disappointed in yourself when you are unable to complete the tasks that come with life alone.   We have to remember, God is all seeing, all knowing, and He can do whatever needs to be done in our lives. 

Make sure you stay in faith and make sure your faith stays in God.   He will never leave you.   He will not forsake you.   He will watch over you, shield you, protect you, heal you, and provide for you.
