Trusting your heart and feelings.

Genesis 27:21-24 (Amplified Bible) 21But Isaac said to Jacob, Come close to me, I beg of you, that I may feel you, my son, and know whether you really are my son Esau or not. 22 So Jacob went near to Isaac, and his father felt him and said, The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau. 23  He could not identify him, because his hands were hairy like his brother Esau's hands; so he blessed him. 24 But he said, Are you really my son Esau? He answered, I am.

If you make decisions based on feelings you will not be able to identify lies.

It is funny that Isaac's intellect (what he knew to be Jacobs voice) was contradicting what he felt. He was blind but he still could hear. How many times have we been blind, confused and not knowing what to do but base our decisions on what we feel instead of what we hear or what we have learned to be the truth? Everything you have been taught and everything you feel sometimes will contradict each other.....in that case go with what you have heard or rather what you have learned to be the truth, don't trust your feelings. If anything contradicts the word of God then its a lie. Your feelings are fickle and if you trust them you will not be able to identify the lies of hell.

I have heard so many people say they are confused but they are going to trust their heart....or they say I trust what my heart to lead me. NO! NO! NO! Please do not trust what your heart.....unless it is biblical.

“ The heart is deceitful above all things,And desperately wicked; Who can know it?
