BE ANGRY AND SIN NOT!

Text : Ephesians 4:26

"Be angry, and do not sin": do not let the sun go down on your wrath.(NKJ)

When you get angry, the tendency to commit sin is very high. Your goal then should be that you should get rid of anger. By putting it off, it looses its grip over you. Colossians 3:8 says that "you yourselves are to put off anger..."

You have the sole responsibility of putting off anger. Putting off anger can mean to violently strip it, disarm it, or despoil it. When anger has been stripped of its power in your life, it will no longer drive you to sin. It is only at this point you can be angry and sin not.

When the power of anger has been disarmed in your life, then you will receive grace not to allow the sun to go down on your wrath. (Ephesians 4:27).

When you allow the sun to go down on your wrath, that means the anger has gotten hold of you for too long a time. The grip that anger or wrath has on you goes a long way in determining the duration of the anger whenever you are in session. 

You must therefore be careful not to allow the sun to go down on your wrath, as this will always give a foothold to the devil. anger gives a foothold to the devil.(Ephesians 4:27).

An uncontrolled anger will always give a foothold to the devil in your life. You must watch it, lest the devil take hold of your whole life.

Bible  Reading: Numbers 20:1-12.

PRAYER FOCUS

1.) Father God,  please deliver me from the strong hold of anger in Jesus name.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

BEWARE OF DOGS

Text :  Philippians 3:2. Beware of the dogs! Beware of the evil workers! Beware of the mutilators! Usually, when you see the inscription "BEWARE OF DOGS", you instantly know there's a wild or trained dog around the corner, hence, the need to beware.  However, when God says 'Beware of dogs,' He wasn't actually referring to dogs as in 'animals' but to animals in human skin. Note that this caution was given to believers against other so-called  believers.  That is, some people within the church that we refer to as brothers and sisters are actually operating in the capacity of dogs.Though fellow worshippers in the church are called brothers and sisters, but if they behave like wild animals, know that they are dogs in humans skin- BEWARE. Matthew  7:6 says *Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.*  Essentially, dogs don't have capacity to r...
