THE SEED
“Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools.” Ecclesiastes7:9
Moses is a typical personality in the Bible who failed to follow God’s command and could not enter the promised land because of anger. Anger caused Moses to act foolishly and he could not complete God’s agenda. Anger is one of the hardest emotions for Christians to deal with. We often do not acknowledge we have it, because we feel we are not supposed to have it in the first place. Our Father in heaven is slow to anger and plenteous in mercy (Psalms 103:8). He wants us to imitate Him, to be slow to anger and plenteous in mercy. When a person is hasty in spirit to anger, the tendency to sin or go out of control is high. There are many instances where people have acted in anger and regretted it afterwards when they became sober. No wonder the opening scripture says anger rests in the bosom of a fool. In other words, anger produces foolishness and makes you act without thinking clearly. Dearly beloved, as believers in Christ Jesus, it is sometimes better to control anger by changing the subject matter under discussion than continuing a discussion which is fueling the anger and this is the only way to demonstrate that the Holy Spirit dwells in us.
PRAYER
Every spirit of anger in my life, be destroyed by the blood of Jesus in Jesus name Amen.
