Default Control Your Temper

Control Your Temper

He who is slow to anger has great understanding.
—Proverbs 14:29

It is uncomfortable for others to be around us if we are easily angered. We need to learn how to respond to life instead of react to it, so that we can enjoy God’s power in our lives. God says that a person who can control his or her anger is better and mightier than an individual who can take a whole city (See Proverbs 16:32).

God’s Word says, “Understand [this], my beloved brethren. Let every man be quick to hear [a ready listener], slow to speak, slow to take offense and to get angry. For man’s anger does not promote the righteousness God [wishes and requires]” (James 1:19–20). Be a ready listener, and enjoy the freedom from anger that God offers you.


From the book Starting Your Day Right: Devotions for Each Morning of the Year by Joyce Meyer.
