How Unresolved Anger Can Invite Unwanted Guests for Generations To Come

Scripture: Ephesians 4:1-6;25-32

As we continue our series on eliminating anger, we look at an often overlooked but paramount imperative from Paul in his letter to the church of Ephesus: to not give the devil a foothold in your anger. When we harbor anger in our hearts, it is akin to inviting spiritual and emotional garbage into our lives - and where garbage lies, pests reside. When our lifestyles exhibit unresolved sins such as bitterness, anger, and rage, the consequences not only wreak havoc in our own lives but also onto generations beyond ours. The challenge is to be wary of the unresolved sins in our lives, to repent and confess swiftly so that anger takes no hold in our hearts, and to fill our lives with kindness and compassion to curb the spiritual and emotional baggage that could thwart the work of God in us and through us.
