When You Feel Tension Festering …

1 Peter 3:9 ~ Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing.?

Abba Father good morning ~ This strong intensive warning of scripture is hard to live among the ways of this world. It is a stern warning to be on guard, alert, attentive. Remember ~ satan waits strategically to jump into conversations, activities, relationships. Never-forget ~ satan is devious, destructive, devouring. Being able to inflict damage with repeated abuse, ungodly accusations, misrepresented intimidation. Everyone has fallen into this trap of destructive behavior. Everyone has been deceived. Everyone has been intimidated. Everyone encounters life’s brokenness within conversations, activities, relationships. More than likely, we do not have to reflect-back very far to realize satan implemented a well-thought-out strategic attack. Deviously sneaking into our life when we least expected. Remember ~ satan uses the ways of this world intentionally or unintentionally to somehow justify tearing people down with hurtful behavior within hurtful intimidation. Everyone can remember times when hurt became real in life. Deep within our heart, our mind, our soul there is a solid sustainable foundation breathing everlasting life within our living God, our Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit. Sustainable anointed foundation intimately created breathing humility with compassion, unconditional love with forgiveness, promises of truthfulness with everlasting life in heaven. An anointed foundation breathing all the fruits of the Spirit in Galatians 5:22-23: Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Satan wants nothing less than for our life to justify reasons with revenge, unacceptable behavior, destructive actions. Our life can encounter conflict without causing collateral damage. Our internal foundation within our heart, our mind, our soul; our very inner-core of thriving life has sustainable purpose with sustainable worth with sustainable passion. When our life encounters satan’s devious strategic attacks our foundation within The Lord Our God will sustain. We might feel like lashing-out, fighting-back, desiring our way. We must contain our ungodly emotions of destructive behavior. How will we release this tremendous hurt residing within disappointments, frustration, intimidation? Living ready is critical. Living prepared crucial. Living equipped for this moment of conflict is essential. Our Living God will help our life to respond with perseverance, patience, wisdom, discernment. Helping our life live Godliness within every moment of life. Reading, holding, embracing the living bible is a choice, a decision, a way of life. The holy bible is The Lord Our God’s anointed truth. Willingly implementing will prepare our life for readiness equipped with sustainable promises of anointed protection. Our Lord Christ Jesus confronted hardships, struggles, trials, temptations, uncertainties of life with intimate prayer, unconditional love, compassionate forgiveness. Living life boldly, courageously, fearlessly for our life. Extending forgiveness when least deserved. God’s powerful life-changing undeserved grace actively breathes everlasting life (Holy Spirit) into life’s brokenness (our sinfulness) within anointed sustainable life (Christ Jesus) within everlasting life in heaven (Abba Father). Cleansing, redeeming, restorational gifts thriving within moments of life absolutely-free; un-earnable, un-purchasable, un-creatable breathing new life of abundancy into life’s brokenness. In moments of conflict our life will be challenged to instantaneously respond, lash-out, fight-back with anger, bitterness, resentfulness. We have a choice, a decision, a way of life to choose. When tension builds. Our insides twist and turn. Our mind is restless. Our heart is heavy. Our soul is weary. Take a moment. Pray for perseverance. Remove yourself. Read the bible. Get in fellowship. Go for a walk-in nature. Talk with The Lord Our God. Venting and listening will help release this building desire to lash-out, fight-back, inflict-resentfulness. Engaging God’s powerful undeserved grace at these moments will instill deep peace within our heart, our mind, our soul. When you feel conversations going the wrong way. See frustration building. Feel tension festering. Softly call out in intimate prayer to “The Lord Our God” ~ This pray will remind our life to have compassion. Be nonjudgmental. Extend unconditional love. Offering forgiveness when confronted with hurtful ways of this world. Willingly living believing, accepting, trusting, following within God the Father ~ God the Son ~ God the Holy Spirit will actively open our heart, our mind, our soul to a life of everlasting undeserved grace.?

Father ~ Thank you for always loving, forgiving, and breathing anointed blessings into my sinful life. Intimate gifts breathing everlasting life in heaven with life-changing undeserved grace opening my heart, my mind, my soul to share all the fruits of the Spirit. Father ~ Bless, anoint, sustain, protect my life to love and forgive. Help me engage sinful people in a worthy manner breathing all praise, all honor, all glory to you Abba Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit.
