ANGER MANAGEMENT  

Anger has caused us to do,and say things that’s destructive to others and ourselves. That’s why God tells us not to get angry.

Spiritual Anger Management starts in Ecclesiastes 7:9 which state’s:

Be not hasty in your spirit to be angry: for anger rests in the bosom of fools. 

Then Ephesians 4:26-27 says,

26 Be all of you angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath (or anger):

27 Neither give place to the devil. 

•Anger out of control gives the devil entrance into your life. 

•Uncontrolled anger causes violence, hurts, breaks in relationships and sad to say even deaths. 

•When you walk in love, joy, and peace you nullify and bring to nothing the vicious beast of anger. 

Spiritual Anger Management Pt. 2

James 1:19-20

“Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath (or to get anger);For the wrath (or anger) of man works not the righteousness of God. 

•Resist and avoid anger at all cost. 

James 3:18 

…the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace. 

Philippians 4:7 

And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ  Jesus. 

•Where there is love, joy and peace anger must cease. Continue in love, joy 

•When you are angry your peace can be interrupted. Release the anger and keep your peace. 

•Peace is the fruit of the Spirit, Galatians 5:22-23. This means your peace is of God. 

Matt 5:9 

Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. 

•Peacemakers are blessed children of God. 

•Peacemakers are not angry people. Neither do they get angry easily and if they get angry they do not get violently out of control and sin. 

•When anger comes your way remember Your Heavenly Father is your Jehovah Shalom and Jesus is your Prince of Peace. 

REMEMBER:

The Lord passed in front of Moses, calling out, “Yahweh! The Lord ! The God of compassion and mercy! I am slow to anger and filled with unfailing love and faithfulness. I lavish unfailing love to a thousand generations. I forgive iniquity, rebellion, and sin. But I do not excuse the guilty. I lay the sins of the parents upon their children and grandchildren; the entire family is affected— even children in the third and fourth generations.”[Exodus 34:6‭-‬7 NLT]

+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

SALVATION-It’s free,yet priceless 

GOD SAID:

“If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land”.{2 Chronicles 7:14 }.

LISTEN :

“This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us”{1 John 1:5‭-‬10}.

“Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution. But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. But you must continue in the things which you have learned and been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them,  and that from childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work”;{2 Timothy 3:12‭-‬17}.

God’s Throne of GRACE is open for everyone. So as ,Hebrews 4:16 says,

Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain MERCY, and find GRACE to help in time of need. 

+God is Gracious, Merciful and full of Compassion.

+GRACE is God’s unmerited favor and kindness towards us. Grace gives us the goodness of God which we did not deserve and His MERCY spears us from the judgment and punishment we did deserve. 

+As long as we did not blasphemed against the Holy Spirit, God will always forgive us of all our repented sins and iniquities. We may feel shame, regret and remorse but we should never feel condemned. 

Romans 8:1 

THERE is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus…

Jeremiah 31:34

…for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. 

Psalm 107:1 

O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his MERCY endures for ever. 

•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for our lives. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust and confidence in Him. 

•BLESSED we are and BLESSED we will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

Just a little faith is all you need.

Why do you not understand My speech? Because you are not able to listen to My word.  You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.  But because I tell the truth, you do not believe Me.  Which of you convicts Me of sin? And if I tell the truth, why do you not believe Me?  He who is of God hears God’s words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God.”

John 8:43‭-‬47

FAITH is a Spiritual Activity
Mark 11:22 

And Jesus answering says unto them, Have faith in God. 
In Psalm 27:13 David said:

I had fainted, unless I had BELIEVE TO SEE the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. 

•When it comes to God, His Word, and His Kingdom we must FIRST BELIEVE BEFORE WE CAN SEE AND RECEIVE. 

•Our FAITH in God becomes the things we are believing God for until those things are manifested or materialized. 

•By FAITH we see and receive the promises of God. 

Hebrews 11:1 

FAITH is the SUBSTANCE of things HOPES for, the EVIDENCE of things NOT SEEN. 

•Let your faith in God be your daily exercise. 

•Continue to let the Word of God be the standard for your life. Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to our Lord Jesus Christ be all the glory. Amen!

THE POWER OF BELIEF

“Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them”{Mark 11:24}.

So Jesus answered and said to them, “Assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but also if you say to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ it will be done.  And whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.”{Matthew 21:21‭-‬22}

However, in John 11:40 ;

Jesus says unto her, Said I not unto you, that, if you would believe, you should see the glory of God? 

+The Glory of God is also the manifestations of the promises of God in our lives. 

+Believing In God brings the Glory, the Manifested Presence of God and the materialization of God’s Blessings in our lives Alleluia!

Psalm 27:13 David said:

I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. 

+Remember when it comes to God we must first believe and then we will see His Glory. 

+If we don’t hold firmly to our beliefs, we will become faint (weak), and we will not see the Goodness and the Blessings of the Lord.  

—Never stop believing in God. The blessings of believing are highly rewarding. Believe first and then we will see and receive. 

•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for our lives. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust and confidence in Him. 

•BLESSED we are and BLESSED we will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

CONFIDENCE INCREASES BOLDNESS 

​Hebrews 10:35 says,

“Cast not away therefore your confidence, which has great recompence of reward”.

+Confidence in this text means ASSURANCE and BOLDNESS of SPEECH,AND ACTIONS.

Examples of confidence that leads to boldness: Let’s begin with the three Hebrew boys who boldly declared that they will not serve nor bow to pagan gods.

“But if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we do not serve your gods, nor will we worship the gold image which you have set up.” Then Nebuchadnezzar was full of fury, and the expression on his face changed toward Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego. He spoke and commanded that they heat the furnace seven times more than it was usually heated. And he commanded certain mighty men of valor who were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, and cast them into the burning fiery furnace. Then these men were bound in their coats, their trousers, their turbans, and their other garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace. Therefore, because the king’s command was urgent, and the furnace exceedingly hot, the flame of the fire killed those men who took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego. And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace. Then King Nebuchadnezzar was astonished; and he rose in haste and spoke, saying to his counselors, “Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the fire?” They answered and said to the king, “True, O king.” “Look!” he answered, “I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire; and they are not hurt, and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.” Then Nebuchadnezzar went near the mouth of the burning fiery furnace and spoke, saying, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, servants of the Most High God, come out, and come here. ” Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego came from the midst of the fire. And the satraps, administrators, governors, and the king’s counselors gathered together, and they saw these men on whose bodies the fire had no power; the hair of their head was not singed nor were their garments affected, and the smell of fire was not on them. Nebuchadnezzar spoke, saying, “Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, who sent His Angel and delivered His servants who trusted in Him, and they have frustrated the king’s word, and yielded their bodies, that they should not serve nor worship any god except their own God! Therefore I make a decree that any people, nation, or language which speaks anything amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made an ash heap; because there is no other God who can deliver like this.”[Daniel 3:18‭-‬29].

Then of course Daniel:

Then these men assembled and found Daniel praying and making supplication before his God. And they went before the king, and spoke concerning the king’s decree: “Have you not signed a decree that every man who petitions any god or man within thirty days, except you, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions?” The king answered and said, “The thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which does not alter.” So they answered and said before the king, “That Daniel, who is one of the captives from Judah, does not show due regard for you, O king, or for the decree that you have signed, but makes his petition three times a day.” And the king, when he heard these words, was greatly displeased with himself, and set his heart on Daniel to deliver him; and he labored till the going down of the sun to deliver him. Then these men approached the king, and said to the king, “Know, O king, that it  is  the law of the Medes and Persians that no decree or statute which the king establishes may be changed.” So the king gave the command, and they brought Daniel and cast him into the den of lions. But the king spoke, saying to Daniel, “Your God, whom you serve continually, He will deliver you.” Then a stone was brought and laid on the mouth of the den, and the king sealed it with his own signet ring and with the signets of his Lords, that the purpose concerning Daniel might not be changed. Now the king went to his palace and spent the night fasting; and no musicians were brought before him. Also his sleep went from him. Then the king arose very early in the morning and went in haste to the den of lions. And when he came to the den, he cried out with a lamenting voice to Daniel. The king spoke, saying to Daniel, “Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom you serve continually, been able to deliver you from the lions?” Then Daniel said to the king, “O king, live forever! My God sent His angel and shut the lions’ mouths, so that they have not hurt me, because I was found innocent before Him; and also, O king, I have done no wrong before you.” Now the king was exceedingly glad for him, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no injury whatever was found on him, because he believed in his God. And the king gave the command, and they brought those men who had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions—them, their children, and their wives; and the lions overpowered them, and broke all their bones in pieces before they ever came to the bottom of the den. Then King Darius wrote: To all peoples, nations, and languages that dwell in all the earth: Peace be multiplied to you. I make a decree that in every dominion of my kingdom men  must  tremble and fear before the God of Daniel. For He is the living God, And steadfast forever; His kingdom is  the  one which shall not be destroyed, And His dominion shall  endure to the end. He delivers and rescues, And He works signs and wonders In heaven and on earth, Who has delivered Daniel from the power of the lions”;{Daniel 6:11‭-‬27}.

However, in 1 Samuel 17:45-46 we read about David’s boldness:

” Then said David to Goliath the Philistine, You come to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to you in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. This day will the LORD deliver you into my hand; and I will strike you, and take your head from you; and I will give the carcasses of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel”. 

+And David spoke confidently to Goliath with assurance and boldness of speech in the Lord. 

+And David defeated Goliath in the name of the Lord. 

+I speak this in faith on your behalf. With the exception of hurting anyone you have defeated that which has been coming against you by speaking to it CONFIDENTLY with ASSURANCE and BOLDNESS of SPEECH in the Lord. 

•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for our lives. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust and confidence in Him. 

•BLESSED we are and BLESSED we will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

WHAT’S ON YOUR MIND

​Let us continue to Take Control of our Thoughts!

-Do not let negative and ungodly thoughts run uncontrollably in our minds. 

-Remember we have the God given ability by the Holy Spirit to control our thoughts.

Philippians 2:5 

Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus…

2 Corinthians 10:5

Casting down IMAGINATIONS, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and  bringing into captivity every THOUGHT to the obedience of Christ;

1 Corinthians 2:16

…we have the mind of Christ.  

+This is our righteous and holy mind. The most powerful, godly and beautiful mind anyone could ever have. 

•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for our lives. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust and confidence in Him. 

•BLESSED we are and BLESSED we will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

POWER OF THE TONGUE 

What we think, believe and speak has a lot to do with the condition of our lives. 

“For as he thinks in his heart, so is he. “Eat and drink!” he says to you, But his heart is not with you”{Proverbs 23:7}

“A man’s stomach shall be satisfied from the fruit of his mouth; From the produce of his lips he shall be filled. Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit”[Proverbs 18:20‭-‬21]

For “He who would love life And see good days, Let him refrain his tongue from evil, And his lips from speaking deceit. Let him turn away from evil and do good; Let him seek peace and pursue it. For the eyes of the Lord  are on the righteous, And His ears are  open to their prayers; But the face of the Lord  is against those who do evil.”{1 Peter 3:10‭-‬12}

Mark 11:23

For verily I say unto you, that whosoever shall say unto this mountain, be you removed, and be you cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he says shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he says.

+To Doubt and to speak doubt into our own situation is to prevent our situation from getting any better. 

+To believe and call those things that be not as though they were is the faith that makes things happen.  

+All things are possible by God and all things are possible to them that believe.  

+God responds to those who walk by faith and not by sight. 

•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for our lives. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust and confidence in Him. 

•BLESSED we are and BLESSED we will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

GRACE 

God’s Throne of GRACE

Hebrews 4:16 

Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain MERCY, and find GRACE to help in time of need. 

+God is Gracious, Merciful and full of Compassion.

+GRACE is God’s unmerited favor and kindness towards us. Grace gives us the goodness of God which we did not deserve and His MERCY spears us from the judgment and punishment we did deserve. 

+As long as we did not blasphemed against the Holy Spirit, God will always forgive us of all our repented sins and iniquities. We may feel shame, regret and remorse but we should never feel condemned. 

Romans 8:1 

THERE is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus…

Jeremiah 31:34

…for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. 

Psalm 107:1 

O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his MERCY endures for ever. 

•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for our lives. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust and confidence in Him. 

•BLESSED we are and BLESSED we will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

WHAT’S YOUR HOPE BUILT ON ?

​My hope is built on nothing else but Jesus love,blood,and RIGHTEOUSNESS. 

Our HOPE is in the Lord and the Lord is our hope. 

HOPE: a feeling of expectation and desire for God’s promises to manifest in our lives. 

Psalm 71:5

For You are my HOPE, O Lord God…

Romans 5:3-4

3 …we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation works patience; 

4 And patience, experience; and experience, HOPE: 

5 And HOPE makes us not ashamed…

Proverb 13:12

Without HOPE the the heart becomes sick. 

+You are never without HOPE in the Lord.  

+Blessed and Happy are those whose HOPE is in the Lord. 

Romans 15:13 

Now the God of HOPE fills you with all joy and peace in believing, that all of you may abound in HOPE,  through the power of the Holy Spirit. 

+Hallelujahs to Jesus!!!

•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for our lives. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust and confidence in Him. 

•BLESSED we are and BLESSED we will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

ARE YOU IN DENIAL 

​DON’T DENY GOD.

Matthew 10:33 

But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven. 

Luke 12:8-9

Also I say unto you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess  before the angels of God: But he that denies me before men shall be denied before the angels of God. 

•How do we deny Jesus?

•Does anyone know that we have a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ by the Light we shine? or by the fruit we bear? 

•Can we have a relationship with the Lord and the life we live doesn’t show it?

•Let us all purpose with strong intention from our hearts to give Jesus our highest regard in Love, Faith and Obedience, and in Words, Thoughts and Deeds.

•Our Lord is Faithful, Loving, Merciful, Gracious, Forgiving, and Kind. We may have left Him but He has not left us. He said He will NEVER leave us nor forsake us. 

•He is with us. So we can always do all things through Him Who strengthens us. 

+++Blessed you we are and blessed we will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!
