Git Rid Of…
Overcomers Week #1
Git Rid Of…
Ephesians 4:31-32
Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander, as well as all types of evil behavior. 32 Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you. Ephesians 4:31-32
To be an Overcomer you need to get rid of:
1. Bitterness
- God is always wanting to do something in us and through us but bitterness breaks down that work
2. Rage
- Rage is when we have a moment of bitterness that manifests itself and we lose control
- A fit of rage can cause lifetime regret
3. Anger
4. Harsh Words
- When we use harsh words it’s the result of bitterness, rage and anger built up in our heart
Overcomers should be:
1. Kind to one another
- Kindness is giving somebody else the same amount of grace and mercy that you would want if you were in their situation
2. Tender Hearted
3. Forgiving toward one another
- Forgiveness is not giving someone permission to abuse you
- Forgiveness is saying, “you don’t owe me anymore”
- You might not get grace and mercy where you gave grace and mercy
- Forgiveness is a process that can begin today
