Pondering the Bible: How to deal with anger

"Human anger does not produce the righteousness God desires."
James 1:20 NLT
http://bible.com/116/jas.1.20.nlt

Let’s admit it, we all deal with anger sometimes. But some more than most. When we do get angry, we get this overwhelming sense of bitterness and malice that is sometimes uncontrollable. This brings us to today’s question:
How do you deal with anger? 
Well, satan will always keep on trying to do things to make you angry. And as soon as you give in and never let it go, you have failed and satan can hold you back. 
Here’s how to deal with it: 
The Bible says that when you are angry you should not let it carry over to the next morning. 
"And "don’t sin by letting anger control you." Don’t let the sun go down while you are still angry,"
Ephesians 4:26 NLT
http://bible.com/116/eph.4.26.nlt
This means you may only be angry for some time. But I wouldn’t for long: 
"Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry. Human anger does not produce the righteousness God desires."
‭‭James‬ ‭1:19-20‬ ‭NLT‬‬

 So, let the Holy Spirit guide you and guard your footsteps! Don’t fall into satan’s traps!

Humble Is Best!

Direct my footsteps according to your Word; let no sin rule over me. Psalm 119:133  |  NIV   We need to let God's Word rule our lives, directing our footsteps on our journey through life. God is our Director leading us-even of the path LOOKS right, it doesn't mean it IS right. God knows best so we shouldn't be no-it-alls. Humble your self!

Key = Blue = Scripture  Red = Answers to questions  Green = Verses to read in your spare time. Black = Normal post Bold = Question  "Call unto Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know." - Jeremiah 33:3.  Many people either don't believe in God, or become atheists, partly because of this question: Why doesn't God answer some of my prayers?  Answer: This is because of your heart. Before you ask this question you must ask yourself, am I pure? Have I sinned by mistake and need forgiveness? Or are my thoughts starting to make my light darken? Ask yourself these questions and their surely will be an answer.  But why must I ask myself these questions?  " So flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart" - 2 Timothy 2:22    If we are not thinking good thoughts or have sinned by mistake or not, we have sta...

Christ Died For Me! Romans 5:8

"But God shows His love for us on that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us" - Romans 5:8 Sin. God. Not friends. God tells us to love one another, but we only have one enemy. Satan. The person who wants to wipe out mankind forever. One of his main servants is Sin. Something that cannot get is close to God. But how does he bait us in? How? Worldly pleasures. Money, Fame, Huge businesses, Children and everything you could ever wish for. Satan shall give you these things but they shall not last long. Only things from Jesus last eternal, if we follow Him. SEE Joel 2:32 Jesus paid a big price to make us clean and pure. He died. It was only a heavenly body that could rescue us. Why not the Angels? You may ask. You see, they needed to be in the form of a human, which could not be possible before Jesus died. So God sent his Son. He gave up his pride and joy. His most beloved son. SEE John 3:16. We do not have to pay that huge debt. We would have to DIE if Jesus had not d...
