I don't know how many of you brothers and ...

[Don]

I don't know how many of you brothers and sister see this but many Christians have turned their faith to the way they feel, ( leaning to feelings) rather than faith in what God's word says. That is Satan's biggest tactic to keep them pushed down so that they will believe their no good for the service to God. We must get back on the right track. Its Jesus righteousness and Jesus sacrifice and Jesus Holiness, not ours. Our house has to be on the rock Christ Jesus, not on how we feel.

Father on all your Glory I praise you. Bless this message in pray request. I stand with this whole hearted. May this reach the heart of the needy and the blessed. That in trouble and in joy Jesus be Glorified for his love and sacrifice that we can be saved. And that God was pleased by his son. Glorify God in all things for all is his. Know that in troubles it may be Gods call to search Him out. Give God thanks and Glory for the call. He knows our needs and emotions. I pray by faith and Glorifying God that we all put God above our need want and desire. Then be humbled to accept his blessings. In Jesus name amen.

You hit it right on the nail, Don. I have spoken in tongues and been slain in the spirit many times. I have had periods of being so in love with my faith. And not only in good times, but in hard times as well. I have felt the presence of the Holy Spirit. But the thing is -- Sometimes all of this is taken away from me for reasons known only to God. I can't "feel" God. He has in his infinite wisdom chosen to take away all consolation from me. This is what is known as "the dark night of the soul." This is where faith must take over, faith no matter what happens and faith no matter how you feel or don't feel. Faith is a gift, but it is also a decision. Love is also a decision. And so is happiness. All this "feel good" stuff that happens at church rallies and stuff is wonderful, but you can not build a foundation for a relationship with God on it. I always remember the story of Jesus sleeping peacefully in the boat while all around him, the storm raged. The disciples were so scared, they woke him up and chastised him. I can't exactly remember what Jesus said to them, but I do know at that instant he calmed the sea. I am reminded of the story of Doubting Thomas" as well. He ended up on his knees proclaiming, "My Lord and my God" -- but that was only after he saw and felt the wounds of Christ. And Christ said that he was blessed, but he also said that the people who did not see yet still believed were more blessed. And they are. I always will pray for spiritual consolations and to be able to feel the presence of the Holy Spirit, but I know that is not the main thing. So even more I pray to have faith during my times of the dark night of the soul. Your sister in Christ, Lamb. P.S.: Say "hello" to your wife for me.
