Anger

I'm still clinging onto my anger. I would like god to give me his strength to let go of it. In Jesus high name.
 
We join with you in this honest confession before the Lord and we thank you for calling upon the high name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and find strength to overcome.

We understand how heavy anger can become when we cling to it. Scripture tells us that anger itself can arise, but we are not to hold onto it or let it take root in our hearts. Eph 4:26-27 says, Be angry, and don’t sin. Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath, neither give place to the devil. When we harbor anger, we give the enemy a foothold, and it begins to bear bitterness in us. Ps 37:8 also warns us, Cease from anger, and forsake wrath. Don’t fret, it leads only to evildoing.

The Lord does not want you to carry this burden in your own strength. He invites you to release it to Him and to be renewed. Eph 4:31-32 says, Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander, be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you. And James 1:19-20 reminds us, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger, for the anger of man doesn’t produce the righteousness of God.

We encourage you to daily surrender this anger to God in prayer, to confess it openly, to forgive those who may have wronged you as Christ has forgiven us, and to ask the Holy Spirit to replace that anger with His peace and self-control. This is not something you can do alone, but God is faithful to give you His strength as you abide in Him. Phil 4:13 says, I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me. And Isa 41:10 says, Don’t you be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness.

We pray together with you now.

Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus and we lift up this dear one to You. Lord, You see the anger that has been clung to and the weight it has caused. We ask that You forgive where this anger has been held onto and has given place to bitterness. By Your Holy Spirit, grant the strength to let go, to release, and to forgive. Wash this heart with Your peace that surpasses all understanding and create a clean heart, renewed and tender before You. Help our dear friend to walk in kindness, patience, and self-control, and to be slow to anger and quick to forgive, just as You in Christ have forgiven us. Strengthen and uphold this one each day, that anger would no longer rule, but that Your love and righteousness would reign. We ask this in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ our Lord, amen.
 
We are grateful you brought this so plainly before the Lord, asking for His strength to let go of anger. Admitting you are still holding on is not failure, it is honesty, and God meets us right there.

We have found it helps to remember that letting go often happens in two layers. One is a quiet decision before God to release the right to get even or hold the debt over someone, even when the hurt still stings. The other is the slower softening of the heart, where resentment is gradually replaced as we keep turning the hurt over to Him. Feelings may linger after the decision, and that does not mean the decision did not count.

When you notice the anger rising again, you might pause for a short, honest prayer in that moment, naming what you feel and reaffirming your desire to release it to God, rather than carrying it alone. Over time that practice can keep your heart open to His work.

We are praying for you.

Father, thank You for hearing this honest heart. Give strength to release what has been held so tightly, bring peace where anger has lived, and guide each step toward healing and freedom. Shape the heart to reflect Your grace. In Jesus name, amen.
 
Your honest confession that you are still clinging to anger is itself a mercy, for it shows that the Spirit is working in you to make you bitter against that very bitterness which has held you. There dwells in that bitterness a power that helps to sanctify us when we taste how bitter sin itself is, and then Christ becomes very sweet to the soul.

You ask for strength to let it go, and that is a prayer God delights to answer. Hear the word of the Lord, There is forgiveness with Him. It is a divine forgiveness, I even I am He that blotteth out thy transgressions. It is a surprising forgiveness, so full and free that it is repeated lest any should doubt it. It is a complete forgiveness, He keeps no back reckonings and retains no reserves of anger. It is most free, we did nothing to obtain it by merit and brought nothing wherewith to purchase it, He forgave us for Christ's sake. And it is an eternal forgiveness, for the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.

Think of the pattern set before you. Even as Christ forgave you, so also do you. His life was a life of forgiveness, and it was crowned by His dying prayer for His persecutors, Father forgive them for they know not what they do. He loved His enemies, He lived for His enemies, He died for His enemies. This is great forgiveness indeed, and one effect of tasting it is to take away all bitterness against your fellow men.

Therefore do not let this anger lodge another night. Let not the sun go down upon your wrath is a good precept. He who has been treated so well by his Master should not desire to remain in servitude to anger. Go, sinner, straight to God for pardon and for power through Jesus Christ His Son, for there is forgiveness with Him in His immediate gift, ready to bestow. Power shall go with the command and you shall be made whole.

I will pray for you that you may now believe in the forgiveness of sins for yourself, and that the Lord will give you strength to release what you have been clinging to, and to walk in the sweetness and freedom of Christ. May He lift this burden from you and fill your heart with His peace, and may you know that you are fully and freely forgiven, and so learn to forgive even as you have been forgiven, in Jesus name.
 
May God in Jesus' name answer your prayer request according to God's perfect love, wisdom, will, timing, grace, and mercy. God is so in love with you. Be Encouraged!

Psalm 37:4: Delight yourself in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
