WISDOM NUGGETS: About Overcoming RESENTMENT – PRAY – For It WORKS!
Are you still BROODING and BROWSING In RESENTMENT? Do you desire to be FREE INDEED and experience true FREEDOM and DAILY TRIUMPH? There’s An ANSWER today for you. Ands I pray that you might have the will to let God and let go in Christ Jesus. Amen.
RESENTMENT – means a bitter indignation at having been treated unfairly, unjustly, poorly and such likes. It’s killing relationship at all levels, destroying families, ruining a healthy governance, destroying community and neighborhoods, creating ministerial discord and schism, and worst of all – it’s robbing many of ANSWERS to their PRAYERS from the Father God.
The feeling can be caused by several different situations, however, they all involve a sense of injustice or wrongdoing from an individual. For example, public humiliation, constant discrimination or prejudice, being taken advantage of, feeling unrecognized, envy and jealousy and such likes can all result in RESENTMENT.
The best ANTIDOTE to overcome and live triumphantly over and above RESENTMENT is to PRAY for the one you are RESENTING against. The act of PRAYER enables you to EXERCISE FAITH, which pleases God; and when you please God, He makes even your enemies to be at peace with you and to work for your good. And pleasing God by FAITH means you have the sense to FORGIVE and equally FORGET, that is, to let go off you no matter what – Mark 11:22-26. Knowing that God makes all things to work our for your good in everyway in Christ Jesus stead – by FORGIVING and FORGETTING – washing away, erasing, letting go etc. Romans 8:28; Ephesians 4:32; Colossians 3:13; Micah 7:18-19.
My wife once SOLD to me this Wisdom Nugget that I BOUGHT from her and SPIRITED up:
“When you truly BELIEVE to have ANSWERS to your PRAYERS by Father God, you’ll discover that you CAN’T RESENT against the person you are always PRAYING for no matter what; but you will ALWAYS RESENT towards the person you don’t PRAY for and not always have in PRAYERS, no matter the circumstances that lies in-between”
This bought over Wisdom Nugget of hers concept by grace, has become the motto that shapes our life the more. This gracious concept I have learnt from my wife, and it has always works and still works today and even now. Give it a goal today, even now where you can.
I repeat – Give it a goal today, right now and you will be truly BLESSED in everyway. Amen.
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING:
“When a man’s ways PLEASE the Lord, he MAKETH even his ENEMIES to be at PEACE with him” Proverbs 16:7.
“But WITHOUT FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to PLEASE him: for he that COMETH to God must BELIEVE that he is, and that he is a REWARDER of them that DILIGENTLY seek him” Hebrews 11:6.
“And Jesus answering saith unto them, HAVE FAITH IN GOD . . . 24 Therefore I say unto you, What THINGS SOEVER ye desire, when ye PRAY, BELIEVE that ye RECEIVE them, and ye shall have them. 25 And when ye STAND PRAYING, FORGIVE, if ye have OUGHT AGAINST ANY: that your Father also which is in heaven may FORGIVE you your trespasses. 26 But if ye DO NOT FORGIVE, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses” Mark 11:22-26.
“Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt LOVE thy neighbour, and HATE thine enemy. 44 But I say unto you, LOVE your ENEMIES, BLESS them that CURSE you, do good to them that HATE you, and PRAY for them which DESPITEFULLY use you, and PERSECUTE you; 45 that ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? 47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publican so? 48 Be ye therefore PERFECT, even as your Father which is in heaven is PERFECT”. Matthew 5:43-48.
“If thine ENEMY be hungry, GIVE him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, GIVE him water to drink: 22 for thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the Lord shall reward thee” Proverbs 25:21-22.
“Let love be WITHOUT dissimulation. ABHOR that which is evil; CLEAVE to that which is good. 10 Be KINDLY AFFECTIONED one to another with brotherly love; in honour PREFERRING one another; 11 not SLOTHFUL in business; FERVENT in spirit; serving the Lord; 12 rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; 13 distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality. 14 BLESS them which persecute you: BLESS, and curse not. 15 Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep. 16 Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits. 17 RECOMPENSE to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. 18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live PEACEABLY with all men. 19 Dearly beloved, AVENGE not yourselves, but rather GIVE place unto wrath: for it is written, VENGEANCE is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. 20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, FEED him; if he thirst, GIVE him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. 21 Be not OVERCOME of evil, but OVERCOME evil with good” Romans 12:9-21.
