Galatians 5:22-23 (NET) reads, "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law."
Growing up, Lanre was shy and awkward. Because of this, he suffered at the hands of bullies. And because he did not know how to express himself as well and as intelligently as his mind processed things, he got angry very easily and found it difficult to control himself when he got angry. After believing in the Lord Jesus, anger and lack of self-control when angry were the reasons his first relationship failed and he did not get married to Tricia.
After walking with the Lord for some time, it became clear to him that his lack of self-control was hindering him from walking in higher dimensions of the grace of God for him. This was when he started taking this matter more seriously. As soon as he acknowledged his fault, his healing started. Before, he would blame the person who offended him for the way he could not control himself when he got angry. But the moment he acknowledged that he had a problem and asked the Lord to help him, his healing began.
If we must walk in the divine nature, just like God, we must be slow to anger and self-controlled even when we get angry.
Go into today remembering that you have the divine nature and the power to put your emotions under control.
—Abraham Damilola Arigi
