19 Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger;
20 for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
THINK : I WANT TO REMIND YOU THAT YOU DON’T HAVE TO GIVE IN TO THE ENEMY OR YOUR EMOTIONS. YOUR PAST OR YOUR PRESENT IS NOT A WEAPON AGAINST BUT A REMINDER THAT HE HAS BROUGHT YOU THROUGH AND THAT HE WILL BRING YOU THROUGH
FEEL: YOU ARE A CHILD OF GOD. HE HAS NOT FORGOT ABOUT YOU. HE HAS NOT LEFT YOU. HE IS WITH YOU. YOU HAVE BEEN CHOSEN!!!
DO: WE ARE GOING TO STOP BELIEVING THE ENEMY. WE ARE GOING TO START BELIEVING AND TRUSTING THE FATHER, THE CREATOR, THE HEALER, THE SAVIOR, THE REDEEMER. WE ARE GOING TO TELL THE DEVIL “ GET THEE BEHIND ME SATAN” I AM MOVING FORWARD.

Whoever is slow to anger has great understanding,
but he who has a hasty temper exalts folly.
