Our emotions must be submitted to God.  Instead of accepting feelings of rejection, resentment, sadness, envy, anger, or any other emotion that causes us to believe or act in a way contrary to God’s Word or promises, we must rebuke those emotions and submit ourselves fully to what God has to say about us, our situation, and our future.

James 4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Psalm 139:14 I will praise you; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are your works; and that my soul knows right well.

Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you,” says the LORD. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.
