“Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools. Say not thou, What is the cause that the former days were better than these? for thou dost not enquire wisely concerning this.”
Ecclesiastes 7:9-10 KJV
God blessed Solomon with wisdom to rule over Israel and there has never been a ruler like him since. Wisely he cautioned to control our temper, as anger labels us a fool. Don’t long for “the good old days.” This is not wise. Life changes, situations change and we too need to change with the situations at hand. If we are angry or frustrated we are ineffective. Better to get angry with the devil who brings bad situations in our life instead of attributing it to God. God by nature is good and the One Who blesses us which is why He sent Jesus to become the Son of Man and die the cruel death of the Cross. Jesus destroyed the works of the devil at the Cross. Let’s learn to agree with the Word and speak destruction of the devil’s works like sickness, disease, despair, hopelessness, lack etc. Let’s learn to declare the victory of the Cross of Jesus every time. Let’s not live in the past or live in anger and bitterness. Let’s be in the joy of the Lord living victoriously. We thank God for giving us the victory as conquerors through our Lord Jesus, the Anointed One.
