Activating the power of God for fertility
Control your Emotions with The Fruit of the Spirit
Sometimes we can find ourselves in situations where our emotions get out of control, our thinking is altered and diverted, our feelings are being guided by anger, pain, disappointment, fear of the problem at that moment. If we are not careful to protect our thoughts and emotions, we will find ourselves during and saying things that we may not be able to change later. The Lord already knows that we are weak in the face of emotions and pain, He blessed us with guidance and ways to handle any situation, any emotion, any temptation. 1 Corinthians 10:13 “No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to men. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your capacity, but with the temptation he will also provide a way out, so that you may be able to bear it.”
God has provided us with all the fruit we need to overcome human emotions that can lead us to problems, we just have to choose to receive it and apply it. When I learned how wonderful the Fruit of the Spirit is and how I could choose to control my emotions, reactions to situations, it changed my life. Anyone who becomes aware of this great gift that we have been given and applies it, his life will be truly blessed. The fruit of the Spirit are emotional seeds that we can plant to take us from an unhealthy emotion to a peaceful, loving and joyful emotion.
Living life applying the fruit of the spirit as your guide is so wonderful, loving and amazing; It will give you mastery over your emotions and feelings. You will find that you have more peace and quiet in situations where you would normally have a tendency to get upset, angry, hurt, or patient. You feel the power of self-control.
The fruit of the spirit not only helps you control your emotions, it keeps you connected to a divine victory over circumstances. Most of the time, when we get overly emotional about something, we don’t make good decisions, we make decisions based on what’s happening at the time. Keeping the spirit guided by the fruit of the spirit keeps you with a healthy mind to think clearly and rationally, which helps you do or say things without the pain that comes with it.
The fruit of the Spirit are emotional seeds that we can plant to renew our thinking in our heart/mind at any given moment to take us from a sick emotional state to a more peaceful healthy emotion. I find that depending on what is going on at the time, if I see myself allowing myself to be controlled by the situation, I stop taking a deep breath and think about what amazing fruit I could connect with and plant instead of just allowing the situation to unfold. resolve. control my emotions. It’s amazing to know that you can change your perspective and how you feel in an instant. Galatians 5:22-23 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.”
Lessons and Blessings from Nine Amazing Fruits:
Love: The most powerful emotion in the world, since everything depends on love, this fruit can be applied to any situation, it replaces what you are feeling with love, cancels everything else and you are left feeling empowered.
Joy: This fruit prevents me from feeling victimized and feeling sorry for myself when I think something is wrong or I feel disappointed or hurt. It’s easy to get caught up in feeling sorry for yourself. Find some joy, think of all that has been blessed in your life, adopt an attitude of gratitude, allow the moment you are in just flow, choose to find something joyful to connect with. In no time you will begin to feel the fruit of pure joy. I’m not necessarily talking about happiness, but Joy, (happiness means that something has to be happening) Joy is a grateful heart at peace. What a wounded emotion.
Peace: Peace comes when we let go and trust God. When we do not have peace it is usually because we are trying to control the situation, we start to worry, to be anxious, trying to figure out how. Pray, trust God, let Him guide you, you can rest in peace knowing that it will be what it is supposed to be, trusting that God has a better answer and solution than ours. Choose peace over worry.
Patience: We’ve all had times when we want what we want right now, or we think things are taking too long. This fruit has helped me stay out of my own way time and time again; trying to rush something in my own time could mess everything up. I had to learn to trust that God’s timing was the perfect timing. Waiting has saved me from making some bad decisions in my life.
Kindness: What you take from the heart returns to you in abundance. It costs nothing to be kind. When being kind is part of your core values, you are a blessing to someone and you will receive many blessings just when you need them most. Living from this fruit gives me an opportunity every day, an opportunity to be a blessing in someone else’s life. What a great feeling. And I received many days of kindness and much more in return, just when I needed it most. What a bless.
Kindness: When we experience life during what is good, what is right, we have a sense of fulfillment, we do the best we can even in a situation where others may have done us wrong. Because of God’s goodness, we are blessed and should bless others in the same way. Don’t do it to get something back, do it from the heart. I try to live a life without expectations attached to the things I do for others. All my expectation that I have is and will be fulfilled by God. Do good deeds, not for profit just to help, it’s rewarding. Your heart will thank you. (Smile)
Faithfulness: Faithfulness teaches me how to live with honor and integrity by staying true to my word and promises. When I have given my word, I try to keep it, even if things may have changed. I know that in life things and people change, but if I find myself wanting to get out of something I promised to do, I have to remember the fruit of fidelity, it helps me keep my word and my commitments.
Gentleness: This is my calming fruit. I know it’s not always easy to be nice to people who push your button or talk tough, but there have been times when this fruit saved relationships that would have been lost entirely.
Self Control: Wow, I can’t begin to tell you how many times I had to take a deep breath and remember this fruit. Learning to apply self-discipline in situations will save you a lot of headaches and many instances of pain. The Bible talks a lot about the consequences of lack of self-control Proverbs 25:28 The man who does not have self-control is like a city leveled and without walls. It’s like allowing your mind, body, and actions to run wild and take care of whatever happens later. It’s like being left unprotected from the elements (“the consequences”). Having self-discipline is your protection… It is also your reward. When you have self-control you achieve your goals, you stay focused with more control and confidence.
God has provided us with the guidance we need to turn things around and plant healthy emotional fruit that saves lives, relationships, and your health.
There are so many Bible verses about controlling our emotions and the fruits we should plant, here are a few more:
Proverbs 16:32
Better is he who is slow to anger than the strong, and he who rules over his spirit than he who takes a city.
2 Timothy 1:7
Because God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love and self-control.
1 Peter 4:7
The end of all things is near; therefore, be sober and sober because of your prayers.
