CALMING THE STORM

What this episode covers

Ephesians 4:26–27 (TLB)If you are angry, don’t sin by nursing your grudge. Don’t let the sun go down with you still angry—get over it quickly; for when you are angry, you give a mighty foothold to the devil.The world’s longest recorded natural storm lasted about thirty-one days. Yet many people endure storms in their lives far longer, not because of weather, but because they continue to nurse grudges and hold on to anger. Scripture shows that harbouring resentment and hatred in your heart gives the devil a huge foothold, intensifying the hardships you face.Forgiveness is the key to calming the storms in your life. Bitterness and offence are self-inflicted weapons that keep you bound. In this Year of Strange Oil, release every grudge and watch your life shift into the freedom Christ delivered on the cross. Release the chains of past hurt, forgive, and calm the storm!PRAYER FOR TODAYLord, give me grace to forgive quickly and completely. I release every offence and refuse to give the devil any foothold through anger, bitterness, or resentment.PROPHETIC DECLARATIONI do not harbour resentment or grudges.
