Let me work this out!
How many times have we tried to work a situation out, you know the relationship issues, workplace drama, confusion at the church,, different relationship dynamics, only to find out that it was misperceived notions. You lost valuable time nursing a wound that was perceived in error. You chose to remain silent and the enemy had you believing something that was made up in your mind. The enemy has a way of twisting things around making you believe that you're being victimized, but in fact both parties are affected by the delusions. The enemy is on his job to create havoc, discord, divisions in families and discontentment on jobs to get you off of your assignment, and he is doing it well.
The body of Christ is being fooled by deceptive practices and they are not coming prepared to fight against the fiery darts of the enemy. The left the truth for the lie. Believers need to study the word of God in order to rightly divide the word of truth.
Lets work this out together using scripture to show us how to handle adversity when it comes our way.
Proverbs 19:11 Good sense makies one slow to anger, and it is his glory to over look an offense.
Ecclesiates 7:21-22 Do not take to heart all the things that people say lest you hear your servant cursing you. Your heart knows that many times you yourself have cursed others.
Proverbs 17:9 Whoever covers an offense seeks love, but he who repeats a matter separates close friends.
Proverbs 10:12 Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all offenses.
Ephesians 4:32 Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.
If we would all take a moment to evaluate the reasons that caused us to be angry, upset, frustrated or disappointed, we'd find it was due to misinterpretation, I learned a few years ago that communication takes two actions. The 1st is to speak clear and concise, not beating around the bush so to speak. To be as factual as possible, not going off of hearsay.
2nd be a good listener, ask for clarity if something is unclear, and reason with one another. Sometimes, you just have to settle for a happy medium. You agree to disagree and move on to the next topic. We have to realize that we're all made different we all have different ideals, cultures, thoughts and opinions. It's just the differences that make us unique so we build on it and respect each others input. We all have value, we just have to learn how to work it out.
