Our Feelings Aren't the Boss of Us - Seeking Understanding in Christ Alone : Re-Air
This week Chelsey shares about God's command for us to seek Him for all understanding. As culture seems to be driven more and more by people's feelings and emotions, Chelsey shares that we are called to continually seek The Lord for direction. We see that as we seek understanding from The Lord and desire to know His heart more deeply we won't so easily be tripped up by our feelings and emotions. And, we'll be able to love and serve others the way Christ calls us - through His grace and mercy.
What happens when we don't seek for understanding from The Lord?:
- Hearts become depleted and overly emotional.
- Lives become ran by feelings.
- Decisions are made based off of what the flesh desires.
- Psalm 119:1-8, Blessed are those whose way is blameless, who walk in the law of the Lord! 2 Blessed are those who keep his testimonies, who seek him with their whole heart, 3 who also do no wrong, but walk in his ways! 4 You have commanded your precepts to be kept diligently. 5 Oh that my ways may be steadfast in keeping your statutes! 6 Then I shall not be put to shame,having my eyes fixed on all your commandments. 7 I will praise you with an upright heart, when I learn your righteous rules. 8 I will keep your statutes; do not utterly forsake me!
As we seek understanding in Christ pulls us away from the world, the lies of the enemy, and desires of the flesh.:
- As we lean into The Lord we will be drawn closer to Him and His truth.
- Psalm 119:29-32, 29 Put false ways far from me and graciously teach me your law! 30 I have chosen the way of faithfulness; I set your rules before me. 31 I cling to your testimonies, O Lord; let me not be put to shame! 32 I will run in the way of your commandments when you enlarge my heart!
As we seek understanding from The Lord, He will always lead us in His truth.:
- The Lord will always lead us in truth and the Holy Spirit points us in the direction of clarity.
- James 4:7-8, 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
