Emotions can sometimes lie to us. Our emotions arise from our souls, and our souls are the middle-ground between our flesh and our spirit (as believers our spirit posses the Holy Spirit, or God’s thoughts, 1 Corinthians 2:11-12).
Some emotions start from the flesh which, contrary to appearance, is the impermanent part of us. We can feel alone, but God said He would never leave us (Joshua 1:5). We can feel unattractive, but we were masterfully created (Psalm 139:14). We can feel unhappy, but joy is a un-fleeting gift from God (John 15:11). So, when our emotions attempt to convince us of inaccurate truths, we audibly and repeatedly replace those thoughts with the truth of God’s Word.
John 8: 31Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If you continue in my word, then are you my disciples indeed; 32And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
