14 Sep Understanding And Resolving Anger
Deacon Hui Zhen - 30 April 2015
Be Afraid Of Not Your Enemy, But Your Heart Stolen By The Enemy
God really want to direct our hearts into experiencing Christ’s love and perseverance in this end times, so that we can continue and see every worth to live a set-apart life of exalting Christ in our times here on earth. This is the place where remnants are raised. And we’re called remnants not because we do not have problems or setbacks, neither it’s because we have better conditions than others. God gives us just enough conditions, conditions that He can use to spread His gospel in this end times, conditions in which the glory of God is manifested when we walk in His truth.

<Eph 4:26-27, 31-32> ESV
26 Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, 27 and give no opportunity to the devil (Or: Do not give the devil a foothold).…. 31 Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. 32 Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.
Be angry and do not sin <v26>
1) Intrinsically and inherently, anger in itself is not a sin.
2) Understand “Righteous Anger” – Can be a powerful force to put a stop to sinning.
3) Yet, our anger many a times lacks element of “righteousness”.
4) Individuals, Family and World are all terribly affected by anger
2. DO NOT let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold <v27>
1) Persistent/prolonged anger invites the devil to work.
2) Prolonged anger can open a way for the devil in our hearts to make his lies believable to us.
