When we can’t physically, see, smell, or hear something we often want to feel something. Sometimes churches may use statements as “I feel the Spirit moving” or “I feel the presence of the Lord.” What people are really trying to do is explain the emotional excitement they’re receiving in their soul at that present time. This makes the believer think they have to feel something in order to know whatever they’re doing (praying, worshipping, standing in faith) is working.
The truth is whether we feel it or not, the Holy Spirit is with us and God is ever-present. We know this not because of our feelings but, because the Word of God says so. As we mature spiritually, we need to move beyond our feelings and rely on the Word of God when it comes to spiritual matters.
1 Samuel 10:7 Once these signs are fulfilled, do whatever your hand finds to do, for God is with you.
