Topic: DESTINY DESTROYERS: ANGER

Memory Verse: Ecclesiastes 7:9 – Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools
Bible Reading: Proverbs 14:9

Message: Anger is one major tool that the devil uses to destroy destinies. Everybody knows clearly that no one just gets angry for no reason, without any provocation. Ecclesiastes 7:9 says, “Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools”. In Numbers 20:1-12, Moses -who had been labouring for God for forty years and leading a very difficult set of people, lost his temper just before he got to the promised land and so didn’t enter into it. Watch it: anytime something is about to make you angry, quickly check yourself; the devil may be preparing to spring an attack.

Anger is very dangerous. There was a man whose only problem was anger. Whenever he got angry, he could do anything. He had just bought a brand new car, parked it in front of the house and was rejoicing when his son took something sharp and scratched it on the new car. This man saw it and out of anger, used the first thing he saw – a hammer, to smash his son’s hand. The boy screamed. Upon realising what he had done, the man rushed the boy to the hospital, where the doctor said the only solution was to amputate the boy’s fingers. The following day, he went to see the boy in the hospital and the boy said to him, “Daddy, when will my fingers grow again?” The man went back home with a very heavy heart. He then decided to go and check what the boy had written on the car anyway. The boy had written on the car, “Daddy, I love you”. The man was so devastated that he committed suicide.

Anger is temporary madness; that is why you hear people say, “I was mad with him” and they say it with pride. If you really want to fulfil your destiny, you have to deal with anger in your life.

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

Rule your spirit. Don’t let anger bring you down.
Points: Father, destroy any root of anger in me, in Jesus’ name.
Bible in one year: 2 Kings 1, 2 Kings 2, 2 Kings 3

Hymn: Rock Of Ages, Cleft For Me

  1. Rock of Ages, cleft for me,

Let me hide myself in Thee!
Let the water and the blood,
From Thy riven side which flowed,
Be of sin the double cure;
Cleanse me from its guilt and power.

  2. Not the labours of my hands,

Can fulfill Thy law’s demands
Could zeal no respite know,
Could my tears forever flow,
All for sin could not atone,
Thou must save and thou alone.

  3. Nothing in my hand I bring,

Simply to Thy cross I cling
Naked, come to Thee for dress,
Helpless, look to thee fir grace
Foul to the fountain fly
Wash me saviour or I die.

  4. While I draw this fleeting breath,

When my eyelids close in death,
When I soar to worlds unknown,
See thee on thy judgment throne,
Rock of ages cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee.
