DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL
Monday 18 November 2019
*TOPIC*:
*ARE YOU STILL CONTROLLED BY ANGER❓*
*KEY VERSE*:
“Don’t sin by letting anger control you”(Ephesians 4:26).
*TEXT*:Eph. 4:26-27
*MESSAGE*:
When “ANGER” is consiously or unconsciously stored up in the heart, it becomes “DANGER”. it inevitably reflects in ones behaviour negatively. It could make one to overreact at the slightest provocation, revealing the bitterness buried in the heart. Often, such anger or bitterness is rooted in the event(s) of the past – perhaps an unfair treatment that was endured at a younger age or an abuse or insult one had to put up with at the work place or even in the street. While the one who stores up anger in his or her heart is not free, the most unfortunate thing is that those who often bear the brunt of such anger and bitterness are mostly innocent people.
Though created with a capacity of anger, the human heart is not meant to store up anger. This is because anger is like a terrible acid that inevitably destroys its container and poisons the surrounding environs. The Bible wisely instructs us to not let the sun go down while we are yet angry (Eph.4:26). In other words, we’re not to sleep over anger; for the longer anger stays in the heart, the more power it gains to control our lives, and ultimately destroys us.
in other words any delayed ANGER=DANGER
For our own good, we must get rid of anger in all it’s forms – be it stored up in our hearts or the one we “entertain” intermittently. It all begins by releasing ourselves to God, and turning over to Him whatever issue that is trying to brew and store up anger in our hearts. As we trust His love, faithfulness,and sovereignty, He will help us, release us from past hurts, give us the ability to forgive and the freedom to live above the control of anger.
*CONTROLLING THOUGHTS*:
Do not sleep over anger; for the longer anger stays in the heart, the more power it gains to control and ultimately destroy a life.
*PRAYER*:
Lord, today I release to you every anger lodged in my heart, and receive your healing and comfort. I will no longer be controlled by anger.
*BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:*
Ezekiel 16-17; John 11:30-57
