Theme: Anger Robs Your Solace 
Text: Psalm 37:8

8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; Do not fret—it only causes harm.


Anger is a toxin you must not permit seconds to linger on with you. Anger has led many to do what they wouldn't have done if they had control of themselves. Cain is an example of such situation who killed his brother ( Genesis 4:6-8). When you're pushed to the wall in anger, be encouraged with the Word of God.

The Apostle Paul admonished the church in Ephesus to, "be angry but do not sin. And do not let the sun go down in your wrath nor give place for the devil" (Ephesians 4:26-27). Though you can be angry over some issues, do not permit it to rule over you. Apart from the spiritual perspective to forgive and to live peacefully with all, ceasing anger will do you great good than harm. Many are suffering hypertension because they've held on to bitterness and anger for far too long. If you allow the sun to set on your anger, be sure to spend more on medication (treating yourself). Whatever you hold against others, no matter how unpleasant it is, let it go and you shall find solace.

Prayer: Dear God, give me a touch once again that I may flee from anger and make me find solace in You when the tides are high in Jesus name. AMEN!

CHARACTER STUDY ~ APOLLOS

-
Apollos means "one who destroys or a destroyer". He was a New Testament figure who steadily grew to become a servant of Jesus through ministry. He was a staunch Jew.  Some Characteristics of Apollos: √ Apollos was endowed with great knowledge and was very outspoken. In his line of ministry, he exhibited understanding of the old canon and delivered its message boldly.  √ Despite Apollos's eloquence and knowledge, he was only vexed in the baptism of John without the knowledge that the prophecy about the Messiah had already been fulfilled. John’s baptism was the baptism unto repentance: An act of confession and turning from sin which anticipated the coming of the Messiah. Let us be informed that Christ's second return is for judgment.  √ Apollos was instructed in the way of Christ by Priscilla and Aquila, two faithful couples in Christ. After one of his public teachings, he was called aside by the couple who explained the scripture to him. His submissiveness to adhere to...

Do you feel you're forgotten, rejected or insecure? Dear beloved in the Lord, you're not forgotten, for God has engraved your name in His palms. Isaiah 49:16 See, "I have engraved you on the Palms of My Hands: Your walls are ever before Me". If God has engraved your name in His palms, it means He always sees or watches over you. Rise up and shake the fear and doubts off.  Declare, "I am not forgotten or alone. The LORD has engraved me in His Palms. Therefore, His eyes are fixed on me, and He protects me from the wicked. I decree all that I have is secured in the Name of Jesus Christ. AMEN!

What inhibits you determines what comes out of you. The two elements are light and darkness. The light within produces good, whereas darkness is evil. It is recorded in  Ephesians 5:8-9 For once you were full of darkness, but now you have light from the Lord. So live as people of light! For this light within you produces only what is good, right, and true.  Declare, "In the Name of Jesus Christ, I no longer walk in darkness but rather in light. Therefore, every product of darkness within and around me is extinct. I decree that my family and I live in light, and we enjoy what the light produces in fullness. Our deeds are good, right, and true. AMEN!"
