Episode 18 Process Step 2 God Feels

Do you realize God has emotions.

Do you ever ask God how He feels? Have you ever asked Him how did I make you feel when I did this?

Do you spend time in contemplation with God?

Can you identify your emotions? Realize God feels these same emotions on a much deeper level than you do.

I challenge you to look up bible verses that express God's emotions.

Read:

God's is Jealous. So much so His name is Jealous. See Exodus 34:14.

Also

Exodus 20:5, Deuteronomy 4:24 & 2 Corinthians 11:2. There are other verses as well.

You can grieve God by grieving the Holy Spirit. See Ephesians 4:30.

Can feels anger. See Deuteronomy 4:21 & 32:21 & Psalm 7:11.

God feels love which is what provokes Him to be jealous. He loves us that much. See John 3:16-17 about God's love.

There are many passages and verses about God's emotions. I challenge you to spend some time exploring more than what I have listed and look for them in your regular Bible reading.

In the next episode we tie this together with Relating to God.

What is Aroma?

What is worship?

What is the aroma of worship?

What kind of an aroma do you give off to God?

Romans 12:1-2

Read Exodus 30:1-10; 35; 37:25-29 - Remember the people's life and daily work were about preparing and developing the sacrifices that they would offer at the Tabernacle. Every aspect of their life was about giving all of themselves to God so their worship would be an acceptable offering to the Lord.

John 4 (verses 22-24) - As a side note also pay attention to the food and water references that Jesus makes. I believe that the fact people would work and sacrifice and give the fruit of their labor as a sacrifice is an important aspect of worship. There are several passages that you can read that pertain to this.

We will be teaching about the 5 senses in upcoming episodes that are all part of this process of training.

Episode 16 Process Step 1 The Why of God!

I left this as a live recording so you would sense the passion of this part of the process.

What is your why?

Where did your why come from?

What does the Bible say about what is God's why for man?

How does Fearing God play into this?

To train properly we must know the why of God. Without this we will not have the anchor that will give us the grit and focus when things get hard and we are being tested.
