Emotions are NOT facts.

For all my biblical marriages out there please read.

Disclaimer: I don’t specify on specific topics, I specify on only speaking God’s truth despite the topic.

Emotions are valid, but they are not facts.

Your spouse will do things that hurt you, disappoint you and at times make you feel disrespected. They will let you down. They will fall short. Just as you do to them.

The emotional reason is because they don’t communicate how you do. They don’t show love how you do. They don’t think or act the way do. And because of this emotional standpoint our judgment is clouded.

Here are some facts.

Just because I feel like a man, does not mean that I will ever be one.

Does that mean “feeling like a man” is not valid? No. It just means that I can’t base my decisions or actions on those feelings. Whatever I do still has to line up biblically.

It’s a fact that you are not only in covenant with your spouse, but with God. How do I know it’s a fact? Because it’s biblical.

If your not a biblical person, this message isn’t for you.

Forgivessness is required despite how we feel.
Speaking life and not death is required despite how we feel.
Seeking reconciliation with your spouse is required despite how you feel.

Love is not conditional. God proved this by dying for us while we were sinners.

Your spouse is not your enemy, no matter what they did or didn’t do. You already have an enemy and will not be able to fight against his schemes, if you’re fighting against each other.

Don’t allow the enemy to use you in a way that dishonors your covenant with God. Because the fact of the matter is, you could be justified in the dealings with your spouse but you will never have to the right to go against the word of God.

What good is it read and know that pride comes before a great fall, if you never know when to lay your pride down?

Knowledge of His word is great, but with out the wisdom to know when to apply it, your gonna keep fighting against them, and never with or for them.

Your covenant with God alone is enough of a reason to not consider you’re emotions over His word on this.

Your family is going to eat the fruit of your choice either way. Which tree are they eating from? Your emotions or His facts?
