Let Go of All Anger

When angry, do not sin; do not ever let your wrath (your exasperation, your fury or indignation) last until the sun goes down. Leave no [such] room or foothold for the devil [ give no opportunity to him]. EPHESIANS 4:26-27

Everyone has anger from time to time, and understanding it and knowing how to handle it properly is important.
Anger begins as a feeling and then manifests itself in words and actions. You feel something and it causes you to do or say something. Anger is not necessarily always sin-however, what you choose to do with anger directly determines your quality of life.
All anger has the same effect on your life. It upsets you, causing you to feel pressure. Keeping anger locked inside can even be dangerous to your health. So you must take responsibility for your anger and learn to deal with it.
If you struggle with anger, ask God to help you process it and bring it to closure. You can be bitter or better-the choice is yours!

Seek to Be Humble

Do nothing from factional motives [ through contentiousness, strife, selfishness, or for unworthy ends] or prompted by conceit and empty arrogance. Instead, in the true spirit of humility (lowliness of mind) le each regard the others as better than and superior to himself. PHILIPPIANS 2 : 3

Having pure motives and humility are required if you are to fulfill the command to think more highly of others than yourself. In fact it cannot happen without a willingness to be obedient to the Holy Spirit.
To live in harmony you must recognize and respect the right of others to disagree with you, and you must do so with a good attitude. Humility requires that you forgive quickly and frequently...and that you not be easily offended. You cannot be self seeking, but instead you must be generous in mercy and patience.
Humble yourself and follow God's instructions and you will enjoy the wonderful benefits of obedience: peace, joy, and a powerful victorious life.

Choose Life

I call heaven and earth to witness this day against you that I have set before your life and death, the blessings and the curses; therefore choose life, that you and your descendants may live.
DEUTERONOMY 30 : 19

Happiness and joy do not come from the outside but from within you. They are result of conscious decision, a deliberate choice one we make each day.
There are many people living in bad situations they would like to see changed. But despite the challenges they choose to be happy and joyous. You face that same choice every day of your life.
Either you choose to passively listen to the devil and allow him to ruin your life and make you miserable, or you choose to aggressively withstand him so you can live in the fullness of life God provided for you through His Son Jesus Christ.
Make the right choice and enjoy life like never before!
