Feelings Is Not Enough!

Hosea 4:6 has taught us a good lesson in this kingdom of God. God’s people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. This also imply that people in love, and relationship constantly gain or get heartbreaks because they are lack of the right knowledge. In this world of love and relationship, ignorance is not excuse.

Feeling is not enough; knowledge is needed. Its okay to recognize that you are having feelings for some one but you must also seek to knowledge what kind of feelings you are having. It’s so confusing how people know they are having feelings for some one yet they don’t even have a clue to the knowledge and understanding of it. How can you be carried away by your feelings (we all do some times) and forget the place of knowledge. I know it feels good and exciting and this is lady or man feels different from every other people you have met in life. One thing you must understand is this question; what are you looking for in life?

What are you looking for? Knowing the answer to this question will solve 60% of your confusion. It’s one thing to know what you are looking for but it’s another thing for you to know what God created you to look for. To have a clue to what God created you to look for in life, you must first identify who you were created to be. Your real identity according to Gods word is what will dictate the things you are meant to look for.

Apart from knowing your self according to Gods word, do you really know this person you are having feelings for? Apart from whom you think they are - who is she/him? Do you even know their values, priorities, and what God has called them to do? Do you even know where this person is heading to in life? BEFORE you even find out all these questions concerning some one else, do you personally have answers to these question about your own life? 

What comes to your mind when you are having feelings for this person? FEELINGS PRODUCE DESIRES. So what desire have you cultivated from these feelings you are having for this person? Is it just about you kissing him/her? Is just about romance and sex? Is it about his or her figure? Is it about His or her achievements? After gaining the desires your feelings for this person is creating in you – WHAT NEXT? Are these feelings giving you the opportunity to add value to what God has called this person to do? Are these feelings just about you satisfying your own greed, lust of the eyes and lust of the flesh?


Do you really and truly understand the feelings you are having about this person? Don’t tell me you can’t just explain. Feelings and life is explainable – that’s what knowledge offers you.

Feelings are not enough; knowledge is needed.

Some day, this feeling will fade, and all that will confront you will be the demand for the knowledge why you had the feelings for this person in the first place.  Are you ready fir that question when the time comes?

Remember this, John 15:5 and Matthew 11:28-29

There is still HOPE for you in Christ Jesus 

Watch out for my next post "Knowledge is not Enough." 

Thanks.

Yours Sincerely,

Prince Victor Matthew

How to Stop Settling for Less in Dating Relationship - Part 4

Settling for less in a dating relationship is something that many Christian youths may find themselves doing, often without even realizing it. It's important to recognize the different ways people might settle, so you can avoid falling into these traps and ensure that your relationships are grounded in the love and purpose God has for you. Here’s a detailed look at 30 kinds of people who often settle for less in dating relationships, along with explanations of why they might do so. The Fearful: These individuals settle because they’re afraid of being alone. They might cling to a relationship that isn’t fulfilling or godly just to avoid the fear of loneliness.

The True Essence of Love: Protection and Respect

Hello, lovers! Love is a beautiful and powerful force that binds two people together, creating a deep connection rooted in trust, vulnerability, and mutual respect. However, love comes with responsibilities. One of the most crucial aspects of a healthy, loving relationship is protection. Love culture demands protection—emotional, intellectual, and physical. If you cannot protect the person you love and instead abuse the access you have to their vulnerability, it’s time for a serious self-reflection. Protecting Vulnerability When someone loves you, they open up their heart, sharing their deepest fears, dreams, and insecurities. This level of vulnerability is a precious gift that must be cherished and safeguarded. If you exploit this vulnerability, manipulate their emotions, or demean their intellect, you are not only damaging the relationship but also becoming a toxic presence in their life. Recognizing this behavior is the first step toward change. Repentance and transformation are ess...

How to Stop Settling for Less in Dating Relationship - Part 6 (Final Part)

In the world of relationships, it’s easy to focus on whether we’re settling for less, but what about the other side of the coin? As Christian youths, we must also consider whether we’re unintentionally causing someone else to settle for less by dating us. Relationships are meant to be mutual, uplifting, and Christ-centered. If we’re not careful, our actions, words, or even our approach to dating could cause someone else to compromise their values or settle for something less than God’s best. Here’s how you can avoid putting someone in that position. First, it’s important to be honest with yourself about your intentions. Before you enter into a relationship, ask yourself why you want to date this person. Are you genuinely interested in them, or are you just trying to fill a void, combat loneliness, or conform to societal pressure? If your motivations aren’t pure, you might end up leading someone on, making them believe the relationship has more potential than it actually does. Pray for ...
