Have You Ever Been So Angry… By ‘brother bill’
Have you ever been so angry at someone that you became obsessed with getting even? Jesus says, we’ve murdered in our heart when Satanic influence takes over as we give him an opportunity.
Ephesians 4: 26 (NKJV)“Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on your wrath, 27 nor give place to the devil.
Murder Begins in the Heart
Luke 12:57-59 (NKJV)
21 ¶ “You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not murder, and whoever murders will be in danger of the judgment.’
22 “But I say to you that whoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment. And whoever says to his brother, ‘Raca!’ shall be in danger of the council. But whoever says, ‘You fool!’ shall be in danger of hell fire.
Murderer from the Beginning
John 8:44 (NKJV)
He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
Every small lie is a small murder. It steals, kills and destroys the clear sight of what is. It kills trust. It kills the future that truth would have built. The same mouth that promised “You will not surely die” has never stopped talking.
Illustration:
A craftsman builds a house for his children. Night after night a quiet voice tells him the foundation is “good enough.” One day the walls warp. The children inherit the collapsing house or nothing at all.
So, every foundation other than our Lord has a collapsed warp built in.
Build on the Rock
Matthew 7:24-27 (NKJV)
24 ¶ “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock:
25 “and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.
26 ¶ “But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand:
27 “and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall.”
Enjoy your house built on a great foundation with rebar,cement in brick. Brother bill/dad
