Joyce Meyer DEVOTIONAL 6TH APRIL 2025 Today’s Message
TOPIC: DON’T LET YOUR EMOTIONS LEAD YOU ASTRAY
SCRIPTURE: The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it? Jeremiah 17:9 (NIV)
Today’s scripture teaches us that our hearts are “deceitful above all things.” Deception can occur when we believe something is not true even though it is, or when we believe something is true when it is not. We can easily fall into the enemy’s trap of self-deception. The self always helps itself get whatever it wants.
When we have a strong desire for something and our emotions are excited about it, we can easily deceive ourselves by telling ourselves whatever we want to hear. If my will wants something, my mind will give me a variety of reasons I should have it, and my emotions will certainly line up with what my will wants.
We must learn to live deeper than the shallowness of our own minds, wills, and emotions. Deeper living means we go beyond what we want, what we think, and how we feel and live by the Word of God. We must seek and humbly obey God’s Word and His will, because that’s where we find true blessings.
I encourage you to spend time regularly waiting in God’s presence, asking Him to reveal any area of your life in which you may be deceived. Put your trust in God and in His Word and follow the leading of His Spirit. Don’t trust your own thoughts, desires, and emotions too much. Ask God for what you want but be willing to change if you discover that it’s not His will for you. He always does what is best for us. To avoid being deceived, we should be diligent to stay close to Him and His Word.
Prayer of the Day: Lord, help me to realize that my feelings can deceive me. Help me avoid deception and to trust Your Word and Your Spirit to lead me instead of my emotions.
