I got angry, and I stepped out in the flesh in my response to something that I perceived as a wrong. However, it is not my place to correct the World, for the World is lost, and so who am I to fix that which I cannot. All I can do is share the truth, while remembering to do so in love, or else I will be a poor ambassador for Christ Jesus.
I understand it's OK to get angry at those who act as the Pharisees did, because Jesus got angry with them. For they walked around in a way to be seen for their good deeds, while in truth their hearts only cared for the worldly profit they could gain. Those men who claim to teach the Word of GOD, but are just wolves deceiving others with their words of silk and songs of love, truly deserve our wrath but those lost in the World do not.
Lord my God, my Savior, my King, forgive me for stepping in the flesh by chastising the lost. Yes, I allowed myself to walk in the flesh by ridiculing one lost in the Lord, by doing so, I put a stumbling bock that could keep them from coming to You my LORD. We are called to give an invitation to those lost in the World. An invitation to come to You my LORD so they can be healed, not to chase them away as the Pharisees did.
This Psalm I Sing To Jesus Christ, Our King
Forgive me O'LORD, and wash away my guilt so I can again enter into YOUR presence with a pure and forgiven heart.
We are but the dirt YOU formed from Adam's seed, yet when YOU came down to us through Eve's seed, we found forgiveness through Your Blood on the Cross for our evil deeds.
We have been reborn as new creatures, and now we walk down the path towards Your Celestial City, and when we arrive O'Lord we shall receive a crown of righteousness, which we will gladly toss at YOUR feet, and live eternally in YOUR presence.
My Lord, my God, upon Your Name I stake my claim, for upon the Cross You took my blame, now all I have is Yours O'Lord, because all You had you gave to save my wretched soul.
O'LORD, my GOD, my Savior, my King, to YOU this Psalm I sing.
Amen
We all make mistakes in our walk, where even Paul talked back to the Sanhedrin when he was struck, but it’s how we react after the mistake. I was reading how Judas was sorry for selling out Jesus and instead of going to Christ for forgiveness, he hung himself! We can stumble the world with our walks, even when we mean not to, but going to Christ is always the best answer and good way to begin our healing process and maybe by the Lords will, He will use more mighty, like Peter after his denial, cried and was restored! Good words brother!
