Do you know
that for anyone that is aiming for the top, he/she has to do away with anger? I
used to know someone who gets angry on a per second basis. Everything gets him
angry. As a result of anger, he almost drove himself into an oncoming trailer.
Since then, he became as gentle as a dove.
We let
ourselves become angry over everything. Something goes wrong and then we get
mad. Everything makes an angry person angry because anger is resident inside of
him. Eph 4:31 says, “Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and
evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice.”
Those who
don’t get rid of anger may even die young. Anger is like a tea in a tea bag.
The hotter the water, the more the flavor comes out. I do tell people that if we need reasons to
get angry, then the devil is an expert at that. Anger destroys. Moses was
denied entry into the Promised Land because of anger. Anger robs one of great
and mighty blessings.
“Henry, it is
difficult not to get angry especially considering the kind of people I work
with?” someone would say. Well, you have a point, but you also have to make
choice to either be a fool or be wise. Remember, the Bible says anger lies in
the bosom of fools. James 1:19-20 says, “Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let
every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: For the wrath (anger)
of man worketh not the righteousness of God.”
Anger is one
of the works of the flesh, and works of the flesh would only lead to hell where
there would be weeping and gnashing of teeth. I urge you to start a 7 days
“Anger Vacation” trip and I am sure that great and mighty testimonies you shall
have in Jesus Name. Amen!
