As I was putting the baby to sleep an old song came on the radio called "Hooked on a Feeling." Perhaps those of you who are older will remember the song. I thought about how true that song is in many believer's lives nowadays. How many of us operate according to our feelings? The wicked one's job is to attack us in the physical realm, what we can see, what we can hear, what we feel. He continually tries to bombard our minds with situations and circumstances to keep us from operating in Faith in YHWH's Word.
2Co 5:7 For we walk by faith, not by sight...
We need to begin operating outside of the realm of the "natural" things that we can see, feel, hear, and touch. Faith operates in the Spiritual realm! "Without faith it is impossible to please YHWH!" If we walk after the feelings that are in our flesh and circumstances then we are only going to bring death into our situations.
Rom 8:4-8 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against YHWH: for it is not subject to the law of YHWH, neither indeed can be. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please YHWH.
As a believer, we cannot be satisfied to walk in the flesh realm, basing our lives on the "feelings" that surround us daily. We need to begin living in the Spiritual realm basing our word and actions only on the Word of YHWH! Only then can we be pleasing to YHWH. Only then can we bring life into each situation. Only then can we walk in victory, overcoming the wicked one in every situation! Let your words this day be faith filled words, words of victory and life. Stop walking according to the feelings and begin to walk by faith!
Rev 12:11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

Shalom Bro Dave,while reading Rom:8.4-8 just last week my eyes were opened to see the difference of ones self walking in the flesh and the spirit.Seeing myself in past situations,thoughts and emotions that were fleshly. These verses really opened my eyes so that I could see more clearly inward.And have challenged me so much more to walk in the "Rauch"in every sec. of each day, if that is possible.
