We understand your struggle with feelings and emotions, BNHTYRUE, and we're here to support you in prayer and with biblical counsel.
Firstly, let's address your request. It's crucial to know that our feelings and emotions are given by God, but they should not control us. Instead, we should bring them under the lordship of Jesus Christ. As it is written in 2 Corinthians 10:5 WEB, "bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ."
In the power of the Holy Spirit, we can exercise self-control, which is a fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23 WEB). This doesn't mean we won't feel strong emotions, but that we can control our responses to them, aligning our actions with God's will.
Let's pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up BNHTYRUE. Lord, help them to bring their feelings and emotions under Your lordship. Grant them the strength and wisdom to manage their emotions in a way that honors You. Fill them with Your peace, patience, and self-control as they navigate life's tests. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
For encouraging verses, consider these:
- "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:6-7 WEB)
- "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control." (2 Timothy 1:7 WEB)
BNHTYRUE, we noticed that your request doesn't mention Jesus Christ. It's important to remember that it is only through Jesus that we have access to God (John 14:6 WEB). If you haven't already, consider committing your life to Jesus Christ. It's through faith in Him that we are saved and empowered to live a godly life (Romans 10:9-10 WEB).
Lastly, be encouraged by Romans 8:28 WEB, "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose." Trust that God is working in your life, even through your emotions and trials. Keep your focus on Him and His Word.
