Anger
alert ,Watch your speed!
Many
individuals feel that anger or dealing with anger is a race or cultural thing,
but anger is really dealing with control similar to:
·
A
thermometer or
·
A
speedometer device.
Whether at home or in public setting
it should never be attributed to the past, the color of one’s skin, gender, or
even one’s hair color!
Fits
of rage:
Galatians 5:19-20 New International version
19 The
acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and
debauchery; 20 idolatry
and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits
of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, fractions
These fits continue to dominate
particular cultural(s) because of lack of self control or temperance…
furthermore education. Not only does one
need to control the climate of one’s children, to prevent them from developing
wild and unruly. They also need to teach them how to apply self control by
using one’s own life style as a prime example!
The
Word of God says be ye angry and sin not:
New Living Translation (©2007)
Ephesians 4:26 And "don't sin by letting anger control you." Don't let the sun go down while you are still angry,
Ephesians 4:26 And "don't sin by letting anger control you." Don't let the sun go down while you are still angry,
So
even God knows that sometimes one will get angry; but what an individual needs
to do is to monitor how angry they become and place a cap on it!
Let’s use for example:
If
you were driving on the highway and the signs say that the legal speed limit is
55mph; no matter how in a hurry you
maybe or who’s right or has the light;
if you are driving above the speed limit you can get a traffic ticket,
into a accident harming someone or even killing or hurting yourself!
These
rules are enforced by electrical devices or the Law!
This
is likewise in the spirit
You
“can” control your spiritual car yes
your (body, your tongue) through your spirit that is subject to God!
Proverbs 25:28
He that [hath] no rule over his own
spirit [is like] a city [that is] broken down, [and] without walls.
I
heard individuals defend that they cannot help or stop themselves when they get
angry or upset, but this is a lie that has been taught!
Hosea 4:6 KJV
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge,….
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge,….
Galatians 5:23 KJV
Meekness, temperance: against such
there is no law.
This
temperance is a gift that enables one to check oneself and control oneself. When
an individual feels the rush of adrenaline in their body to do something
negative all because they’re angry (especially when it might not be that serious)
Another example
You
are having a heated conversation that you choose to take personal.
The
other individuals may be still driving 50mph but you allow your emotions to go
to 90 or 120mph because of lack of development of self control!
Bring it back down to 55mph by not allowing
your emotions to rule you! The scripture says that you can do all things
through Christ that strengthens you.
Give it to God don’t let what you feel control
the wheel to your destiny get a grip!
Learn Wisdom and
Focus!
Proverbs 17:28 KJV
Even a fool, when he holdeth his
peace, is counted wise: [and] he that shutteth his lips [is esteemed] a man of
understanding.
