Anger

Eph. 4:26-27

Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:   Neither give place to the devil.

Jas 1:19-20

Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:   For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.

Quotes

“Sexuality: We have seen so many tragic examples in recent years of ministers whose ministries have been lost, families torn apart and lives ruined because they fell into sexual sin. This sort of thing always happens one step at a time. It begins with a thought that is not taken captive and brought in subjection to Christ. This is why Jesus said, that adultery can be committed in the heart.” ~ Evangelist Daniel Kolenda

“A few years ago the Holy Spirit spoke to me and He said, “Every generation has a battlefield…when the Church fails to show up on the battlefield of its generation, then they lose the battle by default..” And He spoke to me and said, “The battlefield of your generation is the field of media.” And I really feel that that’s something that we must wake up to….Billions of people are.. on the internet, and on Facebook, and on twitter, and on iPhones. This is where the people are and if we want to reach the people, then we need to be in that marketplace of ideas and of entertainment and of communication where the people are listening.” ~ Evangelist Daniel Kolenda

Prayer / Thoughts

  Father God, You love us so much that You gave us Your only Son to die that we might live. May we receive Your love this day and live in it.

= A parent’s love for a child reflects our Father’s love for us.

God of love and grace, words can never capture the wonder of the sacrifice that Christ offered on our behalf. May our love respond to You with faith and worship—for Your Son who was slain is worthy of our praise.

= Jesus laid down His life to show His love for us.

Philippians 2:5-6

Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped.

Thoughts on This  Verse....

What a glorious thought! What a lofty aspiration! What an incredible challenge! I am to have the same attitude as Jesus had. It's almost unthinkable. But just almost! You see, God calls us to this glorious, lofty, and unthinkable height because he calls us his children. He wants us to be humble and to be a servant just as Jesus was.
