Feelings. We all have
them. One day you can
"feel" real good, but the
next day.....not so much!Now although all feelings
are not necessarily bad,
some can be if they are not
in alignment with the truth
of God's Word. Satan
comes against us with
feelings of
discouragement, failure,
defeat, sadness, depression,
pity, loneliness, fear,
doubt, anxiety, worry,
condemnation,
unworthiness, frustration,
insecurity, and I'm sure
you can add even more
"feelings" to this list.
The truth is, the enemy has
not changed his M.O.
He's been using these"feelings" to rob blood
bought believers of their
peace, joy, strength, and
identity in Christ. If he's
not using feelings, he's
using circumstances.the
things that can be
seen.....to try to shake us
and get us to abandon ourfirm foundation on God
and the truth of His Word.
Friend, usually what we
"see" plants seeds that
result in a harvest full of
"feelings."This is why the
Word tells us to walk by
faith and not by sight
because if we walk by
what we see, it can lead to
feelings/emotions andthoughts that do not line up
with the Word of God.
This is also why the Word
tells us to renew our minds
with the Word of God
because if we don't, we
will be feeling and thinking
all kinds of things that are
not of God. Lately, I've
been studying about being
led by the Holy Spirit.
While studying I came
across Galatians 5:25,
"Since we are living by the
Spirit, let us follow the
Spirits leading in every
part of our lives."
Let us follow the
Spirit's leading in every
part of our lives.Notice it did not say to
follow our
feelings/emotions or our
thoughts, but to instead
follow the leading of the
Spirit. This means
believers dont make
decisions based on
personal experiences,
opinions, what we see, or
HOW WE FEEL; we make
decisions based on the
Word of God, and the
leading of the Holy Spirit
(John 14:26). Know
this:Feelings don't have
Got
Feelings?
"Since we are living by
the Spirit, let us follow
the Spirits leading in
every part of our
lives."
Galatians 5:25 NLT
If you would live invictory . . . you must
refuse to be dominated
by the seen and the
felt.

Intellect. They aren't that bright. Don't trust them friend! So this means......
if I feel that God isn't present with me and that I'm alone, that's a LIE! God's Word says that
God will never leave me or forsake me!
If I feel like a failure or utterly defeated, that's a LIE! God's Word says that I am more than a
conqueror and that He ALWAYS causes me to triumph in Christ.
If I feel like no one loves me, that's a LIE! God's Word says that He loves us with an
everlasting love and that if the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, His unfailing
love for us will NOT BE SHAKEN!
If I feel like I can't do "it," that's a LIE! God's Word says that I CAN do all things through
Christ!
If I feel overwhelmed, outnumbered, overpowered, and conquered, that's a LIE! God's Word
says that the gates of hell will not prevail and that He has already overcome the world!
If I feel unworthy and condemned, that's a LIE. God's Word says that I am worth more than
many sparrows and that there is therefore NO CONDEMNATION for those who are in
Christ Jesus.
If I feel bound by depression and extreme sadness, that's a LIE! God's word says that where
the spirit of the Lord is there is liberty and that who the Son sets free is free indeed! The
Word also says that Jesus came that we may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance(to the full, till it overflows).
All in all, our feelings are unreliable and cannot be trusted to convey truth. It's time we stop
being led by our feelings and instead be led by the Holy Spirit and the Word of God. It's
time we do what Jesus did when tempted by Satan to be led by his flesh, sight, and feelings.
He responded with, "It is written." He responded with the truth of God's Word! Why?
Because what God's Word says is TRUE.and what we're feeling is not if it is not in
alignment with the Word!Trust the truth of God's Word. Don't trust what you see and
don't trust what you think, if your mind has not been renewed with the Word of God!

Dreams And Visions"Faithful is He that calleth you, who also will do it! 1 Thessalonians 5:24
A couple of months ago while studying I
watched Joseph: King of Dreamson
Netflix. If you know me, you know that I
love watching movies and believe that a
good movie always has a lesson in it that
we can learn from. This movie opened the
door for me to study Josephs story in
Genesis. I was encourage so much during
my study and I now feel led to share itwith you, especially since in about 27 days
we will be entering the new year.
In Genesis the 37th chapter we meet a
seventeen-year-old young man named
Joseph.Jacob loved Joseph more than
any of his other children because
Joseph had been born to him in his old
age (vs. 3). Here is where we begin to
see the favor that God had on Josephs
life. Because of this favor, Joseph was
given a beautiful robe; a robe that set him
apart from his other brothers. This
robe/favor not only set him apart, but also
caused his brothers to hate him. Have you
ever been hated for a dream? Maybe not
hated per se, but disliked, discouraged,
ridiculed, called crazy, lost friends..allbecause you chose to dream and when I
say dream, I mean dream big! As a blood
bought born again believer it is
important that you realize that the
Kingdom of God resides in YOU! You
have been marked. You are set apart.

You are His! Always remember that
royalty is your identity. Servanthood is
your assignment. And intimacy with God
is your life source!
Starting in verse 5 we see that Joseph begins
to dream:
One night Joseph had a dream, and
when he told his brothers about it, they
hated him more than ever. Listen to this
dream, he said. We were out in the
field, tying up bundles of grain. Suddenly
my bundle stood up, and your bundles all
gathered around and bowed low before
mine! His brothers responded, So you
think you will be our king, do you? Do
you actually think you will reign over
us? And they hated him all the more
because of his dreams and the way he
talked about them. Soon Joseph had
another dream, and again he told his
brothers about it. Listen, I have had
another dream, he said. The sun, moon,
and eleven stars bowed low before me!This time he told the dream to his father
as well as to his brothers, but his father
scolded him. What kind of dream is
that? he asked. Will your mother and I
and your brothers actually come and bow
to the ground before you? But while his
brothers were jealous of Joseph, his
father wondered what the dreams
meant.
Verse 18 then says:
One night Joseph had a dream, and
when he told his brothers about it, they
hated him more than ever. Listen to this
dream, he said. We were out in the
field, tying up bundles of grain. Suddenly
my bundle stood up, and your bundles all
gathered around and bowed low before
mine! His brothers responded, So you
think you will be our king, do you? Doyou actually think you will reign over
us? And they hated him all the more
because of his dreams and the way he
talked about them. Soon Joseph had
another dream, and again he told his
brothers about it. Listen, I have had
another dream, he said. The sun, moon,
and eleven stars bowed low before me!
This time he told the dream to his father
as well as to his brothers, but his father
scolded him. What kind of dream is
that? he asked. Will your mother and I
and your brothers actually come and bow
to the ground before you? But while his
brothers were jealous of Joseph, his
father wondered what the dreams
meant.
Verse 18 then says:
When Josephs brothers saw himcoming, they recognized him in the
distance. As he approached, they made
plans to kill him. Here comes the
dreamer! they said.
Joseph dreams seemed bizarre,
extraordinary, and in his brothers eyes
down right impossible! Josephs dreams
disgusted and insulted them; it caused them
to hate him. And although his father scoldedhim for his dream; his father still wondered
what the dreams that Joseph was having
meant.Continue Reading at

Who Told You That!?!?
Who told you you were a failure? Who
told you that you were not good enough?
Who told you that God can't do it and that
He would fail you? Friend, the devil is a
liar! It's time that we as believers know
who and whose we are and believe
Truth and not the lies of Satan.He is
under our feet (Ephesians 1:22). He has no
power and when it's all said and done,
what God said will be done!Sure. It may
look one way, but that's why we walk
by faith and not by sight. Sure. It maynot "feel" good, but as believers we are
never to be led by our "feelings"
anyway. Sure others may laugh and mock
you. They may say that you will never
make it, but God is not moved by the
opinions of others and you should not
be either.
Before you were formed in your mother's
womb, He knew you, chose you, lovedyou, anointed you, and had His mind on
YOU! He did not back then and does
not right now have to consult with folks
or get their approval when it concerns
your identity and destiny. Who told you
those negative things? Not God.Satan
did. Friend, heres the truth. You are more
than a conqueror, above and not beneath!
You wear the Victor's crown and have
already overcome! You are enough friend.You are enough because of Christ! God
can and God will open doors that no
man slam shut and create doors so that
His glory will be seen! He is who He says
He is and can do what He says He can do!
You have no need that exceeds God's
power. Faith, friend is God's favorite
invitation to RSVP with proof.
Beware of the lies of Satan! Believing
Satan's lies can and will cause you to be in
fear, doubt, and unbelief and not in faith!That's his goal. That's what He wants. DO
NOT GIVE IN OR GIVE UP! Stay in
FAITH! Faith pleases God (Hebrews
11:6) and it is according to your faith; not
your peers, not your fears, not your
worries, not your doubts----will it be done
to you! (Matthew 9:29) You must believe
God. You must be fully persuaded that
God has the power to do what He has
promised (Romans 4:21). Know this:God never ever ever breaks His
promises. He is the God of miracles
(Psalm 77:12-14). Ask Him to lead you
where your trust is without borders. Let
God be God and let satan be satan (a liar,
a loser, and a fool)! Believe that God can
do His job and believe that He loves you
and that His unfailing love for you will
not be moved (Isaiah 54:10).Believe
God friend. Believe God and alwaysremember that satan is under your feet!
So if he has anything to say to you, tell
him to write it on the bottom of your
shoes!
Be encouraged!
