"He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city."
~Proverbs 16:32 (KJV)
SISTAH DECLARATION: I will make a decision to act and release faith!
God is in the business of restoring and maintaining good relationships. Jesus gave us peace. There is a scripture in the word of God for whatever your needs are so that you can experience this peace that Jesus came to give you. Therefore, if there are times that you have to put away strong emotional feelings such as wrath, you must allow the Word of God to well up inside of you and deal with the situation in a godly manner.
The way to deal with anger is to turn it over to the Lord. The Lord will then tell you what to do about it. One way of turning it over to the Lord is to find scriptures that apply to that situation. There is something in the Word of God for everything that happens in life. Then you act on the Word of God and do it God's way.
Notice that I didn't say that you would feel like acting on the Word of God. You are not a feeling. You are a spirit being, created in the image and likeness of God. You may not feel like it at all. But, if you go on and do what the Word says, the feelings will follow. People have gotten away from love, thinking that love displays weakness. Love does not display weakness. Love displays strength!
