ANGER MANAGEMENT
(James 1:19-20 KJV)
(19) Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: (20) For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
Listen to people without judging - hold your opinion & understand.
Listen to people without talking
Listen to people with an angry comeback
Your angry comebacks do not agree with God.
Have Self-Control
(Proverbs 14:29 KJV)
{He that is} slow to wrath {is} of great understanding: but {he that is} hasty of spirit exalteth folly.
When you are slow to anger you will learn to understand people.
If you are quick to diss or dismiss people you operate in foolishness
God loves all people - Is God love operating in you...or is it anger?
People will make you angry.
(Ephesians 4:26)
Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:
There is a purpose for anger - it provokes +/- action (hopefully positive)
Don't fall into cursing, discouraging. Use your words for good.
Act in love while the issue is hot...disarm Satan early
(Proverbs 15:1)
A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.
Check- what you say & how you say it...Non-verbal talk is more important.
Talk scripture...get away from always
(Matthew 6:14)
For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
Forgive
(Proverbs 16:32)
He {that is} slow to anger {is} better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.
(Ecclesiastes 7:9)
Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools.
(Romans 12:19)
Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but {rather} give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance {is} mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
(Proverbs 25:21-22 KJV)
(21) If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink: (22) For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the Lord shall reward thee.
(Hebrews 10:30 KJV)
For we know him that hath said, Vengeance {belongeth} unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.
(Ephesians 4:31-32 KJV)
(31) Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: (32) And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.
(Matthew 5:22-24 KJV)
(22) But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire. (23) Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee; (24) Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.
(Proverbs 14:16-17 KJV)
(16) A wise {man} feareth, and departeth from evil: but the fool rageth, and is confident. (17) {He that is} soon angry dealeth foolishly: and a man of wicked devices is hated.
(Colossians 3:8 KJV)
But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
(Psalm 37:8 KJV)
Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.
