26 Be angry, but don’t sin — don’t let the sun go down before you have dealt with the cause of your anger;

via Ephesians 4:26 KJV;CJB – Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the – Bible Gateway. Ephesians 4:26 Complete Jewish Bible (CJB)

BE ANGRY.

That’s a strange command from GOD, wouldn’t you say?

Be angry.

I have to tell you I have no problem with being angry! I have an endless supply of things about which to be angry. The troubling part is my anger is most often connected to people. People I can’t get to. People with whom I cannot obtain an audience. Do you know what that puts my beloved through?! :) So I SO need what I’m about to share with you.

Obviously ABBA is intimately acquainted with anger. I am going so far to say that it would be sin if we were not angry about certain matters. Strange as it sounds: Times arise when we NEED to be angry. So we got that part. But then what?

Be angry BUT

Don’t sin in your anger.

Let me get this straight. It can be a sin to NOT get angry and it can be sin to be angry.

Let’s read the rest of the verse.

Don’t let the sun go down before you have dealt with the cause of your anger.

Deal quickly with the root of anger. 

When we are angry we must immediately ask why am I angry?
Do I have a natural right to be angry?
Do I have a supernatural need to be angry?

The answer is crucial.
It dictates how we proceed.
It dictates how we process the anger and WHEN we process the anger.

For you see improperly processed OR unprocessed anger turns to a noose around our own heart and will choke the life out of us.

So. Are you angry today? Were you angry yesterday? And was it about the same matter? When will you deal with it? The command is plain. And the MASTER is ready, willing and able to help us process it.

Process and Proceed or
Stew and Die –
it’s our choice.

26 Be angry, but don’t sin — don’t let the sun go down before you have dealt with the cause of your anger;

via Ephesians 4:26 KJV;CJB – Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the – Bible Gateway. Ephesians 4:26 Complete Jewish Bible (CJB)

Be Hidden in CHRIST,

ABBA,as I said matters about which to be angry seem endless and I don’t want to sin either way; by refusing to care enough to be angry about sin and injustices abounding around me or to respond in an unholy way or to simmer and stew about it but do nothing to help right wrongs or help rescue others caught by sin and maltreatment from others. I pray You will call; and an army of praying, holy living Christians will arise to do good in this world. Thank You for reminding me. Thank You for turning the light on, ABBA. And I pray for grace to walk in that very light. (Isaiah 61).
Thank You too now for the privilege of praying for Jamie, Terri, Lance, Carol, Rick, and some Others whose names I don’t recall but I remember their families asked. And always remembering Kerri, Dori and every person in the hearts of all who come to this page to pray. Thank You for this screen, thank You for these people, thank You for loving us. Thank You for watching over us and taking care of us. Thank You for making love, wisdom, truth, faith, forgiveness, strength, peace, comfort, joy, and all the helps we need available to us; all that is left is for us to choose and receive; HOLY SPIRIT, help us let You help us. Thank You LORD JESUS for living, dying and coming to life again forevermore. Increase our desire for You, to love You, co-labor with You and when it’s time see Your holy face, face to face. Thank You, LORD.

Psalm 96 Complete Jewish Bible (CJB)

96 Sing to Adonai a new song! Sing to Adonai, all the earth!
2 Sing to Adonai, bless his name! Proclaim his victory day after day!
3 Declare his glory among the nations, his wonders among all peoples!

via Ps 96 KJV;CJB – O sing unto the LORD a new song: sing – Bible Gateway.

Proclaim His victory day after day!

Do I?

Day after day does my life proclaim that YESHUA, JESUS the CHRIST, arose from the dead; has overcome death, the world, hell and the grave?

Does it?  I must answer that. Perhaps you must too.

Be Hidden in CHRIST,

ABBA, thank You for speaking. LORD JESUS, thank You for Your victory; thank You for allowing and enabling us to proclaim Your victory day after day. Help us be faithful. We continue to remember Jamie asking that You heal her; and Lance too and Others named in our respective hearts. We continue to remember Boston and West Texas, Texas – thank You for that Samaritan’s Purse is on sight helping. I pray every resource they need will be available timely. I pray for hearts to be comforted; for souls and bodies to be healed and spirits to be made alive in You Christ JESUS. Remember Israel for peace and protection; remember America for conviction and salvation, I pray. Revival us HOLY SPIRIT. And around the world I pray for the persecuted Church – for the Joy of Your Presence and strength meet for each day. Forgive us, have mercy on us and revive us, ABBA, for JESUS sake. Amen and amen.

John 14 Complete Jewish Bible (CJB)

14 “Don’t let yourselves be disturbed. Trust in God and trust in me.
via John 14 KJV;CJB – Let not your heart be troubled: ye – Bible Gateway.

Don’t let yourselves be disturbed. 

LET.

What a word! Three little letters telling me I have a choice! I have a choice to be not disturbed. What is disturbed, anyway?

The King James Version uses the word troubled. Either way. It is something we do not want to be but I can truthfully say, “been there; done that”.

We could say disturbed is to:

to cause one inward commotion, take away his calmness of mind, disturb his equanimity
to strike one’s spirit with fear and dread
to render anxious or distressed
via Tarasso – New Testament Greek Lexicon – King James Version.

But how, YESHUA, the Disciples might have been thinking. How can I be not disturbed when You have told us You are leaving? You have just said that Peter is going to deny You before daybreak.

How can you and I not be disturbed? How can our equanimity not evaporate in this world? Yesterday’s media was filled with news of the terrorist attack in Boston. Is that and a host of other things not grounds for being disturbed? Actually to the flesh yes it is!  BUT GOD.

YESHUA said:

14 “. . .Trust in God and trust in me.
via John 14 KJV;CJB – Let not your heart be troubled: ye – Bible Gateway.

John 16:33 “I have said these things to you so that, united with me, you may have shalom [peace]. In the world, you have tsuris [trouble]. But be brave! I have conquered the world!”
via John 16 KJV;CJB – These things have I spoken unto you, – Bible Gateway. [bracket added- mine]

Choose to TRUST. And believe me, it takes practice but more than that it takes the HOLY SPIRIT within to make it happen and He will as we choose to TRUST. Sometimes it is moment by moment.

I have more good news! Alyssa is back to a normal 10-year-old!! Even had a friend over for a sleepover recently!  Praise the LORD with me for what HE has done for Alyssa and her family. And give HIM praise for skilled doctors and staff!!

Be Hidden in CHRIST,

Thank You, ABBA, for what You did for Alyssa and her family. Thank You. And HOLY SPIRIT, it is my prayer that Alyssa will give You glory, will love You, and honor and TRUST You always; she and her family.
Terrorist attacks, ABBA. Did not take You by surprise. We acknowledge sin has so corrupted Your World; have mercy and forgive us; thank You that THE DAY is coming when You will set all things right. In the meantime, we choose to TRUST You. Thank You for helping us do that. And for the families of the dead, we pray for help and comfort; for the injured, we pray for healing. Thank You, HOLY SPIRIT, for being right there giving comfort and help and yes even protection and safety. Thank You for the thousands who were not injured or killed. And, ABBA, I ask You to expose and bring to arrest those who did this. The TEXT is a good lesson for today, ABBA. Thank You. Let us not forfeit our equanimity but rather TRUST You always; Your perfect love and holiness. We continue to ask for healing for Jamie and Terri and Lance and help and comfort for their families. And there are others we enintrust to You whose names we hold in our hearts; there are tasks to do, help us do them well for Your glory. Amen and amen in Your MIGHTY Name LORD YESHUA.
