Feelings & Emotions

You can live up to the demand through Me. It has nothing to do with the way you feel, faith cannot be based on feelings.
(II:66)

Faith is not built on feelings, but by the fact that My Word says so. Often something you will read in My Word will cause
you to have unpleasant feelings. You may not like what I have to say. But does this mean that what I said is wrong?
Perhaps your own attitudes have been tainted and influenced to a point where what you think is the truth is something you
have come to accept as "truth" because that's just what everybody says or "knows" nowadays. (II:76)
The devil will always try to get you to not "feel like it" when it comes to doing something good, something that counts for
Me. The art is not to pay any attention to him, to ignore your feelings and do it anyway. That's faith. - Faith to act contrary
to your feelings. The only way you get that kind of faith is by receiving My instructions and confirmations that this is what I
want you to do, in spite of what your mind or your feelings tell you.
Walk the low and humble road, whether you feel like it or not! (II:98)
Faith does not stand on feelings, emotions or "chemistry," but on the fact of My Word. (II:107)
I'm trying to get you into the habit of doing things you don't feel like doing, like cleaning up your desk, just because it
would be a better sample; like witnessing, because that's your most important job, or praising Me, just because it means
victory over the enemy, and of cuddling, just because somebody else needs it, and it's good to be affectionate. (II:142)
Instead of feeling dwarfed by the giants who rule this world, rejoice that I'm going to use little Davids like you to bring
those Goliaths to fall! (II:153)
Whatever you feel like, your faith should not be based on feelings. (II:155)
You can't go by feelings. If you wait for emotional confirmation until you're able to show love to someone, you won't be
showing love very much. Besides, emotions have often turned out to be deceptive. (II:156)
The more you will allow My Spirit to rule you, the more the right kind of emotions will run through you.
The kind of love I'm talking about begins where your natural resources and capabilities to love end.
It has got to have come to the point where it's clear that these are not your natural emotions, for they have come to an end,
but this is something greater, a divine love, and supernatural, a work of My grace, it's Me working in you. (II:157)
You must learn to ignore those feelings of frustration, of hopelessness, of lack of love or whatever happens to be the
carpet of emotions the enemy would like to wrap you up in so that you think you've got an excuse not to do what I've
commanded and ordained all My disciples to do! (II:158)
Often you feel like giving up. Why don't you? Because you know - you don't feel it, but you know - that it's not the right
thing to do. It's that same old story about feeling, faith and fact. You're learning to see My facts, which are building the faith
that will eventually pull up your feelings again, too.
But don't look at the hole in the donut just because the feelings might not be there or as strong as you wish! That would be
reversing the situation! You would allow feelings to drag down your faith and disregard the facts!
For women, feelings and facts are very closely related, simply because they have a strong intuition that tells them their
feelings are right. But this can also be a dangerous game sometimes, especially when the enemy deals them a few "false
cards" and their feelings and intuitions are based on his deceptions. (II:169)
Whenever your feelings tell you anything that contradicts My Word or what I have told you, then you can be sure about
their source! Who are you going to believe? - Me or your feelings? (II:177)
You need to learn to resist emotional lies!
You cannot trust your feelings, not even intuition! The devil will use anything to deceive you, and if he even uses My Word
by twisting it and falsely re-interpreting it, as he tried when he tempted Me, how much more so will he be able to use your
feelings to deceive you! (II:180)
Setting your affections on things above and not on things of this Earth means to make people and souls your true and
lasting riches. (II:200)
The only thing that's stable, that's going to outlast any other factors involved in creating or affecting your moods, is My
Word. It's the solid rock on which your faith can stand firmly, even when your feelings seem to sway. The tighter you cling
to that rock, the more stable your emotional household is going to be, the less easily you'll be swayed by your feelings.
Only the fact of My Word is strong enough to build and pull up your faith to the extent that it will be able to pull up your
feelings to a steady and stable level, where you won't easily be swayed by moods anymore, feeling distant from Me, or
easily irritated or aggravated or whatever. Because (if you stand on My Word) you'll know I'm always right there. You won't
allow your feelings to tell you anything different, even if I allowed some seeming atrocity to happen to you. (II:348)

Dont let the negativity that the enemy is trying to sow in you be whats ruling your emotions and mental state! (2016:95)
