DON'T LET THE SUN GO DOWN


"Be angry but do not sin. Do not let the sun go down on your anger. Do not give place to the devil.  Let him who steals steal no more. Instead, let him labor, working with his hands things which are good, that he may have something to share with him who is in need."  Ephesians 4:26-28  MEV   

"Let no unwholesome word proceed out of your mouth, but only that which is good for building up, that it may give grace to the listeners.  And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you are sealed for the day of redemption.  Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outbursts, and blasphemies, with all malice, be taken away from you.  And be kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God in Christ also forgave you.   Ephesians 4:29-32 Modern English Version (MEV)


CONCLUSION:  Everyone gets angry; but it is the person of God who forgives one another, before the sun goes down.
Allowing anger to continue to another day, gives the devil a foothold in your life.  Also, it is important to control your angry speech, whether it is against another person or God and be kind to one another.
