Why should Anger destroy your life and destiny? Anger is
outrageous and should go down before sunset! Anger is the root cause of so many
evil deeds and destructions in the world today. Learning how to control anger
is indeed a wise step to better tomorrow. This article gives reasons why anger
should not be prolonged.
When angry, do not
sin; do not ever let your wrath (your exasperation, your fury or indignation)
last until the sun goes down. Leave no [such] room or foothold for the
devil [give no opportunity to him] – Ephesians 4:26-27 (AMP)
Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools –
Ecclesiastes 7:9 (KJV)
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)
A hot-tempered man stirs up strife, but he who is slow to
anger appeases contention. – Proverbs 15:18 (AMP)
Certainly, you will get angry sometime. But the questions
are, ‘what do you do when you are angry, and does your anger go down before
sunset?’ How well you control your temper determines how strong, matured and
responsible you become.
Anger is very destructive! It has destroyed many marriages
and families, crippled many businesses and careers. Also, people are murdered
and many nations today are ravaged because of it. Furthermore, its effect on
the person who is angry is not worth experiencing. Truly, anger should be
curbed.
Why Anger should not be
prolonged
1. It is commanded.
God in His awesome wisdom commanded that
our anger should not last until the sun goes down. This command is for our own
good.
2. Room is given to the enemy
You give opportunity to the devil to afflict
you and to use you to do evil when your anger goes beyond a moment. Read more...
