If you have a temper problem, if you go from zero to a hundred in seconds, if you are always angry, short-tempered, you have no patience, the smallest things get you upset especially when it comes to your children. If you have problems with your spouse if at work you are always fighting with your supervisors, and at home, you are always fighting with your neighbors. This is a sign that you have an anger problem.

I am not going to speak to you about anger management right now, but if you have an anger problem, you need to deal with it, before it causes you problems. 

I have advice for you from the Bible. It says;

“Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on your wrath, nor give place to the devil.Ephesians 4:26-27

There is no problem to get angry because we are human beings. Especially when it comes to injustice. However, the Bible says be angry but do not sin. But how can you control yourself? There are people that when they get angry, they get to the point of tasting blood, they feel like killing somebody. And maybe you yourself say, “I have a serious anger issue, I have a filthy mouth, I curse, I fight physically” and so forth. I regret it later on but I still do it. How do I not sin in my anger? The answer is, you need to receive the Holy Spirit. 

When you receive the Holy Spirit He gives you self-control. This is why we insist that you need to have the Holy Spirit. The Spirit of God controls your tongue, your mind, He guides you. With the Holy Spirit you have control over your emotions. You will still get angry sometimes, but you will have control. 

Seek the Spirit of God in your life and you will help yourself!

May the God of the Bible bless all of you!
