Faith vs Feelings

“Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed [are] they that have not seen, and [yet] have believed.”
You cannot understand God by feelings. You can only understand God the Father and Jesus Christ by what the Word says about them. God is everything the Word says He is. We need to get acquainted with Him through the Word. Too many people try to get acquainted with God through their feelings. When they feel good, they think God has heard their prayers.
When they don’t feel good, they think that He has not heard them. Their Faith is based on their feelings, whereas it should be based on God’s Word. Many people have and function with the Thomas kind of Faith. Thomas was one who based his Faith upon his feelings. He said he would not believe unless he could see with his own eyes. (See John 20:25.)
Here is a formula for Faith that you can make work for you. First, have God’s Word for whatever you may be seeking. Second, believe God’s Word. Third, refuse to consider the contradictory circumstances, or what your physical senses may tell you about it. Then fourthly, give praise to God for the answer.
Follow these four steps, and you will always get results.
