1. Have you ever made a decision based on
the emotions you felt in one moment, and
regretted it afterwards? You may have
ruined a relationship for things you said in
anger. If so, you can relate somewhat to
Esau in the moment that he sold his
birthright for a bowl of stew.
2. Distractions, challenges and heartache may shake your belief, impair your judgement or even cause you not to recognize blessings. Do not make wrong choices based on your emotions or even worse make no decisions at all.
3. Decide to manage your emotions better,
delay gratification, and refuse to be driven
by the negative emotions around you.
Decide to trust firmly in the Lord and
make Spirit-led decisions.
4. Confession:
I have the grace to stand free of anger,
fear, and regret; making good decisions
that are not influenced by my emotions.
5. "Lest there be any fornicator or profane
person like Esau, who for one morsel of
food sold his birthright.
6. For you know that afterward, when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for repentance, though he sought it diligently with tears." - Hebrews 12: 16-17 #MyDecisionMyLife#YETDevotional

2. Today I’m answering an interesting question from a single guy: “I keep asking ladies out but they never agree. Why do I keep getting nailed?” I think it’s a great question. #MrMrsBetterHalf
3. If you have failed repeatedly at a certain task it is important to take a step back and evaluate your actions. What could you be doing wrong or what should you do differently? #MrMrsBetterHalf
.1 Ask the right questions! If you want to rent a house or buy a used car, then you would know that the way to making the best decision is asking the right questions.
What type of questions are you asking this
season? And who are you asking those
questions?
2. The wisdom you need might
already be in the heart of a person close
to you; you can draw it out when you ask
the right person the right questions.
Get the right people around you and let
them speak wisdom into your life.
3. Listen to the Word of God and allow the
counsel of the Holy Spirit. When you get
the right kind of counsel, you have a
better chance of achieving your goals.
1. Hello and welcome. It's episode 325 of your favourite relationship series #MrMrsBetterHalf. Mr and Mrs BetterHalf is designed to strengthen relationships and marriages with wisdom from God's word.
2. This week’s episode situation is: ‘I'm married, but in love with someone else. What should I do?’ #MrMrsBetterHalf
3. It is not clear whether your feelings are one-sided or are reciprocated. Regardless of the situation, you are at the very least in an emotional affair and in a dangerous place. Hopefully, you have not physically acted on those emotions. #MrMrsBetterHalf
1. Managing your season of not enough!
In the past year, you might have
experienced a lot of hardship and you may
have tagged it your "not enough” season.
Guess what? Even Jesus had His "not
enough” season.
2. Just as Jesus had need for food, you may need a job, spouse, money, etc., and the devil has no new tricks. He tempted Jesus to focus on his needs alone by commanding stone to become bread.
3. In managing your season of “not enough"; you need to walk the path that Jesus walked in - focus on God and His word. Are you desperate for God or a solution? Many people are too focused on the solution they are looking for to understand the One who gives the solution.
1. Rehoboth! In all of God's promises in the scriptures, He never promised that your journey here on earth would be smooth or trouble-free. At some point in your life, you might find yourself in a situation where it seems like there is so much hostility towards you.
2. How would you handle such situations as a Christian? Sometimes, God allows seemingly unpleasant situations to build your character & skills needed for where
you're headed.
3. Give favour expression by being at peace with all men this year just like Isaac did until he got to Rehoboth.
1. Living on God's terms.
God told Isaac in today's passage that it is
time for him to live according to God's
own terms. Of course, the human nature in
Isaac might have caused him to doubt a
bit, just like you and I.
2. However, Isaac chose to trust God completely and live on God's terms. Living on God's terms requires living in God's ordained location, doing God's work, etc.
3. Pondering on the story of Isaac, you will notice that location was very important to fulfilling God's ordained destiny for him. In these times, there is a tendency to become restless.
