Finished living with Anger.

Hello there,
How are you?
I hope that you're having a nice day.

Today I  want to talk, about anger.
You've got it.
Anger, and bitterness.
Because we all have it, it came in when plan B came in from the garden of Eden.
We can read all the books under the sun, about anger.
Anger is a very real emotion that we have, we can be angry in a right way.
In righteous anger, we have times in our lives, that sometimes it beats us.
It wraps it's fingers around us and strangles us in bitterness.
You might not help it, it might just be there.
Sadly it in our family, to the point, where my dad would just get angry, and close the door and drive off, just because he didn't get his way.
He still loves us, but that anger was modeled down to him by his Dad.
It hasn't got to my brothers, but it has come to me.
To the point I can break stuff, which is sad, because someone has pushed my buttons.

I hate anger, I hate bitterness, many times I've prayed that the Lord has taken that away, and will one day come and rescue me out of the pit of anger.

I was angry, at a family member today, because the person didn't check, with if that was ok go and do it, and just done it anyway.
I was mad, man I was angry, I was angry, I was really angry, I slammed down, stuff, I closed doors, I really made a point of God, hearing me, because I was just angry.
Because this person thought it was fit to carry this thing out.
I was bitter, I was trying to do it right, and then this person came in, while I was getting on, with my day, and she came in and said "Oh I've done this.''
without thinking just did it, because it was under the care of love.
It might have been love, but to tell you the truth I was just angry, I just couldn't pray in the spirit, I couldn't see the spirit anymore, this anger was thick and it was crouching to destroy me.
It was my thing,  as much as I could see it was under control.
Now it was out of my control and into the health professionals.


See when you have something that rocks you, to your core, and you are wodnering, lord what am I going to do?
Perhaps move away from this situation, right out of it, would that be a good idea, different churches, lord?
When you wrestle, in the spirit, you really fight.

And the lord just reached down, and said ''you're angry, because you heard my voice, and now, you feel out of control. and you're angry, because it was my voice, and someone has taken that, and went to the health professionals, and you're angry, because it was under control, and now you feel like you're not, and your angry at your mum so now you've broken something  to make her know that you're angry.''
My answer was yes,
The thing is or was depending on how you see anger, was that 99% of the time the person who has made you angry, doesn't really know that you're angry.

Bitterness comes creeping in, like a toxin.

Something in my animal care days which I loved, was first aid, and if you administer first aid quickly you can save the situation, but if left, toxins can build up and can kill the animal.
That can happen, for us the toxins in bitterness, can last days, months, years.
if left, it can turn gangrene, and eventually we die inside.

How can we get better with this?

Learn to let go, you might think, ''if I let go, people will see all the cracks.''

What does letting go mean for me?

Giving it over to Christ, surrendering him every day.

We need to do that, because, the holy spirit came, and is our helper.

How do we know it was the lord and not my own voice or how do we know it was him?
We know it was him, because he knows our hearts, and he totally gets it.
He understands, us down to a tee.

Friends, you might be feeling lonely, it might complicated circumstances, it might just be hard to keep the faith, and the work of the lord is in you. you might be dry, you might be doing the mundane things.
However in those mundane things, the lord is there, you know he shows us how to serve, because he first served us.

I have a friend Steven, who when I heard in my brokenness was councilor from BTI, was OH  good, I need him.
He is also a caregiver, to a young man, I love caregivers, Steven never complains, never lets anything down, while he does house work, cooks, cleans, irons, takes him to appointments, and things, also lives with this man, and took him on his first air plane overseas, to Bali, and also holidayed with him.
He has the father heart of God,  because he knew how special it would be for Taylor to go on an air plane.

So they saved up, Steven brought tickets and took him over there.
Now if you met Steven, he probably would tell you, it wasn't anything special.
He would just sit and listen, and just silently pray.

We are God's workmanship, that is how we combat bitterness, and anger.

We all need Jesus, each and every single on of us,

It might be being a care giver, to people, who need us, rolling up your sleeves, and  being that person, we all need action in our lives.
And prayers, watching and waiting for people to come and release goodness into their lives.

And we need, prophetic words and people. to build up, people and band together, for break through.

My friend it isn't worth getting angry over small things,  I can't tell you, enough, how much anger breaks down a family.

Anger comes in and breaks a family down, relationships break down because of anger, and we can do without it.

And that is, earnest love, and care from the father, totally understands us. even if looks like nobody does.

Friend, you and I know, that it's painful,  living in anger, it's tiring, it's exhausting, you might think it's not there.


If you are really angry, just because, someone has pushed your buttons today.

Don't let it, it's not worth the withdrawal, from your emotional account.

Lets pray.

"Dear Lord,
I bring you these people who have lived, along time in their anger, and perhaps Lord, we come to you, we lift our hands up, and we come, to you and we ask you to take, this anger, and let you deal with it  we ask dear lord to reach down in your amazing grace, and be gentle and kind to you children.
We are broken, but lord we know the person,who can heal, restore, and be made clean, lord call us to be repentant, and be sorry, not to rebel in our anger.''
Amen.
