How To Control Your Anger
When God created human beings, He gave us the ability to experience several different emotions, such as happiness, sadness, love, and anger. If you have a problem with anger, regardless of whether it is a big problem or a small one, regardless of whether it happens often or occasionally, you need to listen to what I have to say. God's love helps us control our anger. God's love can replace your anger and produce good results, instead of pain and/or destruction.

Think Outcomes
Five times in the small book of Haggai the prophet calls us to think. He says, “Think carefully about your ways.” He wants us to think about 1.) our priorities, 2.) our perspectives and 3.) the outcomes of our actions. Our choices determine the outcomes in our lives. Scripture tells us this is a principle we especially have to think about in relationship to God because “Obedience to God is the most crucial factor in the outcomes of life”. Faith is the root of our relationship with God, but obedience is the fruit. A.W. Tozer said: “The Bible recognizes no faith that does not lead to obedience, nor does it recognize any obedience that does not spring from faith. The two are opposites sides of the same coin.”

Think About God's Perspective
The Bible says the house of God today is a community of people in whom God dwells by His Spirit. It is built on the foundation of Christ with prayer and worship through acts of love, service, ministry, outreach and discipleship. Paul writes to the Ephesians and says the whole church grows and builds itself up in love as each part does its work. As God builds his church through us there are also individual things that God wants to build into your life. It takes strength to build the things that God wants you to build.

Priorities
Sometimes we get a burst of passion, emotion or momentum about God and wanting to know him and build the things he wants us to build into our lives and communities but we run into difficulty and we fail to persevere. Like a slow leak in a tire, there is no explosive crisis, just a steady deflation until eventually we're running on flat tires spiritually. What happens next is predictable. The purposes of God are set aside. We begin to live for our own priorities and purposes. Our focus becomes our house, our life, our comfort, our success. God remains part of our life but not the heart of our life. We don't make a decision we just drift into a way of life that is mostly about us. Because we never really made a decision we don't think that much about it. So someone like Haggai has to come along and tell us to think.

A New Kind of Thinking
Unfortunately a lot of people have reduced Christianity down to me, Jesus, and a one way ticket to heaven. But there’s more to it than that, there’s a greater story, a movement of people, and the revealing of a great mystery. And in order to see this incredible story as it was meant to be seen takes a new kind of thinking.
