DCLM DAILY MANNA FOR SATURDAY 3RD JULY 2021
TOPIC: DEADLY ANGER
TEXT: Matthew 5:21-26

DCLM Daily Manna 3 July 2021 Outline:
A young couple had had a feud one evening. It was started by an angry wife who was concerned the husband was coming too late and overworking himself. The disagreement was not resolved before the couple went to sleep. According to the wife, when the husband came home that night he was a mess; she had never seen him so exhausted. She could not stand seeing him like that and she got angry and asked her husband to sleep on the sofa. She woke up the next morning to find him dead where he had lain.
Today’s reading is very instructive of God’s command and stance on anger. Jesus revealed that anger is the leading cause of murder and other odious crimes in our interpersonal relationships. Most people have gone to untimely graves because of unbridled anger. Marriages, families, careers and other life-changing opportunities have all been lost as a result of not being able to control that monster within – anger. It has no doubt caused more harm than good.
Today DCLM Daily Manna 3rd July 2021
Christ came into the world to save man and help him live a good life. He counselled that we should deal with disagreements and reconcile with others before coming to worship Him with our gifts. Anger can stop and sour our religious worship and relationships. God appreciates a clean and clear heart filled with love and regard for others rather than sacrifices filled with bottled-up anger and animosity. We can get a permanent cure for anger as we take our natural heart to God in penitent prayers and genuine repentance.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Say ‘no’ to anger if you want to be happy in life.
THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Kings 5-6
