Just The Edge of God

Prickly People

The passage in Romans 12:2, NLT, states, “Do not imitate the behavior and customs of this world, but allow God to transform you into a new person by changing the way you think.” Romans 12:9, NLT gives the perfect solution to any hateful act done to you. Dear friends, never take revenge. Leave that to the righteous anger of God. Scriptures proclaim vengeance. Here is where you pray and ask God to forgive those who have wronged you and forgive them; they didn’t realize what they were doing as Jesus spoke on the cross as the Roman soldiers were casting lots on who received His clothes. (Luke 23:34, NIV) Jesus asserted, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing. And they divided up his clothes by casting lots.” Psalm 34:15-22, NKJV “gives hope to the hopeless and joy to the kindhearted man who knows that his Savior Jesus Christ will hear his prayers and protect him from all unrighteousness.” When life gets to be too much, and you want to give up, seek mental health professionals and pray. You can always count on Father God to be ready and willing to listen to you. He never slumbers or sleeps. (Psalms 121:2-4) Keep a stress-free lifestyle and steer free of negative individuals. Be positive, kind, and uplifting in your delivery. Even when people are prickly, you be the bigger person and pray before you answer or respond to those who seek to be confrontational.
