Go By My Word Not Your Feelings


I was woken up early and couldn’t sleep (which is odd for me). I thought to myself I can get up and start working on the garage (since we are getting ready to move) I heard God say or you can go worship me. God must have something to tell me. Started praise and worship, repented of selfishness, fear and asked God to change my heart.

Cried out to God about my fear of talking to people and how I wanted to be pleasing to God.

God says: “ I am already pleased with you. Nothing you do can change that I am pleased with you. You have repented (felt him show me actually turning from one path to another) and started walking in the right direction. I am doing fine.

God says: “ You are my daughter I am pleased with you.”

Me: I express my desire to be a soul winner everywhere I go.

God says: “I am pleased with you rather you win souls or not. I want obedience not sacrifices.

Don’t go by how you feel about me go by what I tell you about me in my word. Do you feel like I would never leave you or forsake you?”

Me: No it doesn’t always feel like you are there.

God says: “Remember other times.”

Me: You were always there, you always took care of me.

God says: “The feelings I have given you are special. I can make you feel good but just because you don’t always feel that doesn’t mean I am not there. I will never leave you or forsake you. I mean that and have not changed. Learn what my word says and believe that.”
