Title: Victory with Love
Contents
Victory through love Matthew 5:38-48
When we are treated unfairly and suffer unfair things, we do not perish because of the unfairness. They perish because of the wrong reaction to unfair and unfair things. No one died from being slapped in the face. However, there are people who died because they couldn't quench their anger because they were unfairly slapped and angry. When you try to get revenge, you become a bigger victim. There are people who, out of anger, have ruined their lives by committing murder.
Jesus taught us how to respond positively when we are treated unfairly and when we are wronged. He told them not to take revenge, but to bless them and pray for them. Jesus did not only teach with the Word, but he practiced this method himself. And you won. If you react with a strong emotion, the second hit can do more damage than the first. When faced with injustice and resentment, we need to calm our anger and win with love.
But everyone knows this is not easy. You have to give up on yourself in order to subdue your anger. When we are treated unfairly and treated unfairly, it is not national. Most of them are upset because I feel bad, my feelings are offended, and I have lost money. Putting yourself down makes it easier to let go of any anger. It's okay to feel bad, it's okay to be despised, it's okay to hurt my self-esteem. After you have abandoned me, I have never lost my temper with anger for anything.
Although Jesus endured all insults and persecution and suffered, he never got angry or criticized anyone for his work. Jesus completely emptied himself and came into the world. He did not get angry even when he was spit on. When Jesus came into the world, He gave himself up and came. We are too small beings. Life is about living on this earth for one lifetime and ending with a handful of ashes. If you let go of yourself as if the Lord has forsaken you, you can overcome your anger no matter what happens.
My words and actions should not be controlled by the words or actions of others. Jesus said that when you do good to those who do good and do bad to those who do you well, all your actions are controlled by others. Jesus was not controlled by the words or actions of others. Judas Iscariot sold Jesus. Jesus knew this. But Jesus was not governed by the actions of Judas Iscariot. He still loved Judas Iscariot.
Bearing anger with love and praying for blessings does not mean defeat. That's the way to a real victory. Controlling your emotions and acting according to God's Word is a victory. This victory is an eternal victory.
