There are times harsh words hurt our feelings. Or we are put in a difficult situation that cannot easily be understand. We must be very careful that this doesn’t stir up trouble and anger in our hearts. We are right at the door to the path of sin. As soon as we explode and release our anger and emotion, Satan will take us to his planned scenario.
Let’s stop for a moment and go to God with a prayer, “Lord, please take away this anger from me.” The anger in our hearts does not belong to us, and we must empty out this ugly and harmful emotion. The word of God is the lamp that guides our direction. May these Bible verses help in managing anger.
