The spirit of anger is very evil that it has made countless people lose their glory and retard their destinies in life. It is not only bad in the sight of God but also in the sight of men.
People who get angry often usually lack self-control and misbehave with their life helpers. The spirit of anger is a great tool that the devil uses to destroy bright Christians and block their prayers from being answered. Because the spirit of anger attacks the attitude of a person, it is usually difficult for the person being attacked to recognize it fast and make plans towards changing for the better until they are close to destruction or become finally destroyed.
However, God never abandons His own and he will not forsake you. If you are ready to pray and strongly believe that God can make you become that best, bright, and calm-headed you desire; then you will surely be delivered from the evil spirit of anger and be emotionally whole again. Therefore, we will be applying the scriptures and praying to remove and destroy the spirit of anger and resentment from your life today.
