What can we do when our emotions overwhelm us?
Fear to panic, God commands us not to fear over 365 times in the Bible. Fear is false evidence appearing real. It is not the truth. When you feel fear setting in, ask the Lord to show you the truth.
“But whoever listens to me will dwell safely, And will be secure, without fear of evil.” Proverbs 1:33 NKJV
Discouragement to hopelessness, again we see God commands us not to be discouraged, “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9 NKJV
Stress to anxiety, “Anxiety in the heart of man causes depression, But a good word makes it glad.” Proverbs 12:25.
Jesus has given us, “…The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; That they may be called trees of righteousness, The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.” Isaiah 61:3. Heaviness is a spirit that can be commanded out in Jesus name.
Don’t let your emotions take control, think on good things and proclaim His word, “Sing to the Lord, bless His name; Proclaim the good news of His salvation from day
