Knowing God’s Word guides us in knowing His will is, which is far superior to following our own heart, that is, our own will, desires, passions and emotions.
Jeremiah 17:5 Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart turns away from the Lord.
Jeremiah 17:7 Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord.
Jeremiah 17:9–10 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it? I the Lord search the heart and test the mind, to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds.
* By the way Jeremiah was faithfully preaching God’s Word and was being persecuted for it, causing him to pray for deliverance. Jeremiah 17:14-18
So much for “prosperity preaching” and “word of faith preaching!”
