1. FOREWORD.

The axe is now ready to cut down the trees at their very
roots. Every fruitless, rotten tree will be chopped down and
thrown into the fire.
JOHN 3:10 TPT.

This book in your hands, or mobile device, is an excellent


masterpiece which is symbolic of the spiritual axe in the
above mentioned verse, to cut down every root of anger in
your life.
Anger is a slayer, and it destroy destinies, and hinders
manifestation of God’s promised blessings. Anger denied
Moses entry into the promised land, and it does corrupts the
anointing on a man of God, therefore, the need to cut it
down and uproot from its foundation.
Follow the rich treasures of counsels, contained therein in
this excellent book as a road map, to be totally free from the
demonic forces of anger.
Bless you.

2. INTRODUCTION

"If the foundations are destroyed…?" (Psalms 11:3)

A tree cannot wither unless its roots, the foundation upon


which it stands, are compromised. Similarly, a house can
withstand even the most intense storms and rain if its foundation
remains sound. This principle applies to spiritual matters as well.
The passage above poignantly illustrates the unfortunate
events that life may bring. It speaks of the plea for assistance from
a righteous individual facing trials stemming from an undermined
foundation.

All aspects of the world possess foundations, beginning with


the world itself (as noted in Psalms 18:15b, "The foundations of
the world were uncovered at Your rebuke, O Lord"), extending to
even the hills ("Then the earth shook and trembled; The
foundations of the hills also quaked and were shaken, Because He
was angry,"Psalms 18:7), and reaching as far as heaven ("Then the
earth shook and trembled; The foundations of heaven quaked and
were shaken, Because He was angry,"2 Samuel 22:8). Indeed, all
elements of creation find their origins through Him who is known
as "the Word"(John 1:1-3), for without Him nothing that has been
made would have come into existence.
"At Your rebuke, O Lord (Psalms 18:15b), the foundations of the
world were uncovered. The hills also quaked and trembled; their
foundations shook and were shaken because of Your anger
(Psalms 18:7). Moreover, even the heavens' foundations quaked
and trembled due to Your wrath (2 Samuel 22:8). All things in
existence were made through Him who is known as the Word - He
was with God from the beginning of time, and He Himself is God.
Without Him, nothing that exists today would have been created
(John 1:1-3)."

Humanity was created in the image of God, as stated in


Genesis 1:27. The behavior of Solomon, who did not fully follow
the Lord like his father David, is documented in 1 Kings 11:6. In
addition, Esau's character is revealed when he accuses Jacob of
taking both his birthright and blessing. These examples
demonstrate that every action has a foundation - whether it be
good or bad.

The spiritual resource, "Dealing with the Foundation of


Anger,"is masterfully crafted to address the underlying roots of
anger that have resulted in rage, even leading to the downfall of
Prophet Moses as recounted in the Bible. This same destructive
force has caused countless individuals to err and undermine their
own destinies.

What is a foundation?

The basis of an edifice; that part of a building which lies


on the ground; usually a wall of stone which supports the
edifice. KJV Bible dictionary.
A foundation is a bedrock upon which theories are
formulated. It's the underlying principal that upholds
something.

The quality of a foundation is pivotal to its ability to sustain


any structure built upon it. A poor-quality foundation cannot
adequately support the weight of a building, inevitably leading to
its collapse. The consequences of such an event are dire, as loss of
life and property damage can occur. To prevent these foreseeable
calamities from happening, individuals take every measure
possible. This includes construction experts in the engineering
sector who employ their extensive knowledge and experience to
ensure that project foundations are executed with precision and
care - for this is where their primary focus lies.

To ensure they lay a good, strong and reliable


foundation. Something meant to support
whichever edifice they wish to build. Care and
focus is channelled on laying a quality foundation.
The bigger the project under construction. The more
care and resources are involved to ensure that all is
done properly.
Anger too has its own foundation. In this
book, the issue of anger has been meticulously
discussed and prescriptions given on how to deal
with it. Because of anger, people have missed
their opportunities. Some have committed
murder, insulted and over reacted. Because of
anger, some people have committed suicide.
Many people opened a door to demonic and
satanic attacks that messed up their lives. Worst
part is some people will make candidates of hell
fire because they died angry. People keep dying
with grudges and unforgiveness.

As an intercessor, someone used in the healing


and deliverance department by the special grace of
God. I have noticed how the same demons would
repossess the bodies of people who have been
delivered from demons. One of their easier to use
avenue of entrance. Is the door of anger opened
by a believer.
In order to overcome anger. We need to keep
ourselves in check and seek the fruit of the Spirit. It's
important to get it right.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering,


kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-
control. Against such there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23

I trust that this chapter has brought up a wave of


enlightment. As you proceed. Make it your desperate cry
to God Almighty. To seek His deliverance from the spirit
and foundation of anger. Do this by adhering to the above
scripture in faith that you are only one step away from
your deliverance.
PRAYER POINTS
•Every demon of anger following me from my
foundation scatterby Holy Ghost fire.
•Oh Lord, deliver me from every evil foundation
of anger in the name of Jesus Christ.

PRAYER OF ACTIVATION

enemies. Thank you for your forgiveness and
deliverance as i have faith in you that you have forgiven
me. Thank you Lord for delivering me. Teach me to live
better than before in Jesus name Amen.
3. THE FOUNDATION OF ANGER

The foundation of anger can sit well after


discussing it's definition. Having said that a
foundation is a bedrock upon which theories are
formulated. Anger is a noun. According to
www.dictionery.com

Anger is defined as follows;

A strong feeling of displeasure and belligerence


aroused by a wrong; wrath; ire.

Oxford dictionary has this definition;

A strong feeling of annoyance, displeasure, or hostility.


From every stretch of imagination we understand
that it has more to do with someone else doing
something offensive that offends and provokes
another person or persons. Yet the problem is with
the offended party if they don't handle it properly.
Anger is a strong feeling of wanting to hurt or criticize
someone because they have done something bad to you or
have been unkind to you www.ldoceonline.com

Talking about (an emotion, behavior, outburst


etc) called anger and attributing it to a foundation
of anger. Is what has been discussed in this
chapter. Unlike how scientist explains what anger
and it's causes are. This book has given a spiritual
explanation and understanding on this issue.
Having something to do with the mind and
temperaments.

We believe that everything originates from the


spiritual world. As you know people have been sick
and doctors could not find the causes in certain
cases. Giving examples of sicknesses that come
from witchcraft.

Alive to this very fact, it's without a l


reasonable doubt that every negative behaviour
portrayed has a spirit behind it. Just like most
sicknesses and disabilities.
Let me give an example of what I'm actually
talking about. The following scripture presents this
clearly, i want you to pay attention to the
explanation of the boys father who understood
properly the spirits troubling his son. Also to
look at the behavior and effects they used to put on the
boy.

(Then one of the crowd answered and said, “Teacher, I


brought You my son, who has a mute spirit. 18 And
wherever it seizes him, it throws him down; he foams at
the mouth, gnashes his teeth, and becomes rigid. So I
spoke to Your disciples, that they should cast it out, but
they could not.” Mark 9:17-18)

A foundation is a base upon which something is


built. It's the carrier and sustainer of something.
Anger too has its foundation. The foundation of
anger has more to do with the devil and his evil
spirits than any scientific explanation. In short,
it's directly linked to already existing demons of
anger. Evil spirits that used to be angels at some
point before they became vile.

The spirit of anger is a demon set to


aggressively promote, instigate, facilitate and
sustain anger in the lives of it's human victims.
Through my study of scripture i have noticed
that many people who ended up hurting people
or committing murders did so when they were
angry. Anger going beyond limit is without a
doubt under the supervision of the demonic spirit
of anger.

This is why getting angry has more to it than


meets the eye. Anger originates from the spirit of
anger. A spirit of anger is a demon. It's a
disembodied being that has in its resources, anger
and all imaginable characteristics of anger. Being
disembodied in nature.

This wicked spirit is in need of having total


expression in the earth. The evil spirit possesses
people in a way that anger will no longer be an
emotion that a person can display. As it will be in
it's amplified state. S p o n s o r i n g r e a c t i o n s that
a person can display involuntarily as there is a
demon expressing itself in that way.

For further clarity i say; when an evil spirit (a


demon with its demonic characteristics) possess
the body or soul of a person.

It will rush to begin expressing itself for what it


is in that person's body. Looking at altered human
behaviour, we will rush to blame a possessed
person while the demon securely remains in the
person unexposed. For example if the spirit of
insanity enters a person. It will start portraying all
characteristics and behaviors of a mad person. We
will say that person is mad.
Demons are desperate for expression using the
human body. Despite the fact that they don't want
people to point them out. They are agents that
are causing numerous problems yet they want
people to point out a possible scientific cause. The
spirit of anger does the same thing. Yet some
people want to embrace it and boast saying they
are angry people naturally.

This is a big lie, the best way to go about it is to


unmask the spirit of anger inside of them. It's like
a person who started keeping a young lion and
feeding it. When it was young, the effects of being
a lion could not be seen. It looked cute and
harmless like a pet dog. One day it grew up and
tore it's keeper to pieces. Do you know why? It was
a lion, fact that it was kept as a pet did not
change its behaviour and animal characteristics.
Such is the case with everyone nurturing and
defending anger or indeed any other demonic
behaviour. They are keeping it to their own hurt.

The spirit of anger has made sure it runs in the


bloodlines of certain individuals and in their
families. Like in the tribe of Levi. It ran in their
bloodline. For some it could just possess a handful
or an individual. This is a serious issue that
requires to be dealt with square.

To have a base of continuity. The spirit of anger


has gone an extra mile to establish the foundation
of anger. Something so strong that is instituted as a
portal that enemy would use at anytime. Without
making any announcement. The spirit of anger
begins to control an individual or a people in line
with the mission statement of the devil, of whom
scripture in John 10:10a says;

The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to
destroy.

Man is so hated by the devil because he was


created in the image and likeness of God. See
Genesis 1:26-28. From the time satan was thrown
from heaven he came down in a rage and anger
against humankind. Revelation 12:12 says;

Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them!


Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the
devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because
he knows that he has a short time.”

If the devil can be said to have come in anger and


great wrath. Without a doubt the foundation of
anger is in satan. He spreads it through his
demons. Many today in prisons are jailed for
murder, manslaughter, assault and list goes on.
These people did so under the influence of the spirit
of anger. Rebellion to God is the greatest evil
foundation that births other evil foundation.
Something becomes a foundation if the said
thing has not been dealt with by a generation
and it passes to the coming one. It becomes a
foundation due to longevity. The time passage can
reinforce a trend or an habit to become a
foundation. There is a very influential man i know.
His anger isterrible.

He could do things he normally couldn't do to


a point where he would even hurt people he loves
so much. Once i asked my grandmother before
she died if the anger of that man had always been
so. She told me that it was so. She told me that his
father was worse as for his brothers and uncles it
was way out of control. Then i understood that
evil foundations can move from parents to
children, to grandchildren, to great-grandchildren
andlistgoeson.

If the foundations are destroyed, what can the


righteous do? Psalms 11:3

David cried out. Can i tell you something.


Most of the African, Asian and Latin American
foundations are evil. Most of these foundations
can not support the lofty dreams that most
people have. In the next chapter we will look
in depth at the evil foundation of anger in the
life of Moses the man God used to deliver the
children oof Israel out of the 400 plus years of
slavery. Tracing it from his ancestor Levi.
The other thing i have discovered is that every
evil foundation grows. From generation to
generation the trend gets worse. Whether it's
anger, immorality, witchcraft, wickedness. It grows.
If not dealt with, the evil foundation of anger can
be used to sabotage ones destiny. The respite for
evil foundation is deliverance. Provided one is
bound, J esus said and is still saying "loose them
and let go".

Then they took away the stone from the place where the
dead man was lying. And Jesus lifted up His eyes and
said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me. 42 And
I know that You always hear Me, but because of the people
who are standing by I said this, that they may believe
that You sent Me.” 43 Now when He had said these things,
He cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come forth!” 44 And
he who had died came out bound hand and foot with
graveclothes, and his face was wrapped with a cloth. Jesus
said to them, “Loose him, and let him go.” J ohn 11:41-4

The above narative explains in depth the miracle


performed by Jesus to bring Lazarous back to life.
He had been in the grave. Picture of sleeping in the
valley of the shadow of death. Situation of everyone
who has not yet received Jesus Christ. When the
Lord Jesus is preached. It's like him calling unto
dead Lazarous to come out of the grave.
He came out of the grave bound. Picture of
everyone coming to Jesus Christ. We come bound
in grave clothes and bandages but saved. Lazarous
heard the voice of Jesus and he came out of the
grave to were Jesus stood. That's how far he could
go in his bound state. Most believers saved can
only go as far as church. As for Lazarous, Jesus
said loose him and let him go.

This is what many professing Christians and


believers need. He said concerning Lazarous
physically. He is saying concerning many believers
today spiritually. Many men and women of God
highly anointed have still failed to arrest paganism
and are mostly destroyed by evil foundation of
anger. My advise to gospel ministers and believers
is to seek deliverance from anger. Seek help when
you still can get it because when you will least
expect.

The enemy will pull on the strings of your faulty


foundation and destroy you completely. Up next
is the chapter that shades more light on the
anger foundation of Moses and how it destroyed
him. Learn from it so that anger or indeed
nothing else should destroy you.

PRAYER POINTS
*Lord i renounce the foundation of anger in Jesus
name Amen.
*Anger you will not destroy my life, ambition,
ministry in Jesus name Amen.
*I disconnect from any foundational, generational
anger in Jesus name Amen.
4. ANGER IN THE LIFE OF MOSES

"Then the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, “Because you


did not believe Me, to hallow Me in the eyes of the
children of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this
assembly into the land which I have given them.”
(Numbers 20:12)

Moses was an anointed man of God called to


ministry. God called and assigned him to go back
to Egypt his birthplace specifically to deliver the
children of Israel from over 400 years old slavery.
The mission details to deliver the children of Israel
from physical slavery and to take them to
Canaan, a land of their inheritance which God
swore to their forefathers to give them.

"And the Lord said to Abram, after Lot had separated from
him: “Lift your eyes now and look from the place where
you are—northward, southward, eastward, and westward;
15 for all the land which you see I give to you and your
descendants forever. 16 And I will make your descendants
as the dust of the earth; so that if a man could number the
dust of the earth, then your descendants also could be
numbered. 17 Arise, walk in the land through its length
and its width, for I give it to you.” (Genesis 13:14-18)

" The Lord called Moses while he was in the


bush feeding the flock of his father in law Jethro.
God has a mission and purpose for everyone. No
one is in existence by mistake. The purpose for
the life of Moses was explained to him by God
Himself. His ministry was intended to be
successful.

Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-


law, the priest of Midian. And he led the flock to the back of
the desert, and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. 2 And
the Angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire
from the midst of a bush. So he looked, and behold, the
bush was burning with fire, but the bush was not
consumed. 3 Then Moses said, “I will now turn aside and
see this great sight, why the bush does not burn.”

4 So when the Lord saw that he turned aside to look, God


called to him from the midst of the bush and said, “Moses,
Moses!”

And he said, “Here I am.”

5 Then He said, “Do not draw near this place. Take


yoursandals off yourfeet, forthe place where you stand is
holy ground.” 6 Moreover He said, “I am the God of your
father—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the
God of J acob.” And Moses hid his face, forhe was afraid
to look upon God.
7 And the Lord said: “I have surely seen the oppression of
My people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry
because of their taskmasters, for I know their so rows. 8
So I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of
the Egyptians, and to bring them up from that land to a
good and large land, to a land flowing with milk and honey,
to the place of the Canaanites and the Hittites and the
Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the J
ebusites. 9 Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of
Israel has come to Me, and I have also seen the oppression
with which the Egyptians oppress them. 10 Come now,
therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh that you may
bring My people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.”

11 But Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to


Pharaoh, and that I should bring the children of Israel out
of Egypt?”

12 So He said, “I will certainly be with you. And THIS


shall be a sign to you that I have sent you: When you have
brought the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God on this
mountain.”

13 Then Moses said to God, “Indeed, when I come to the


children of Israel and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers
has sent me to you,’ and they say to me, ‘What is His
name?’ what shall I say to them?”

14 And God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” And He said,


“Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, ‘I AM has
sent me to you.’” 15 Moreover God said to Moses, “Thus
you shall say to the children of Israel: ‘The Lord God of
your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and
the God of J acob, has sent me to you. This is My name
forever, and this is My memorial to all generations.’
(Exodus 3:1-14)

Above scripture gives details of the calling and


mission of Moses which God called him to.
Purpose is key in everything. God is very clear
when he is calling anyone to ministry and
assignments. If you have been called yet you still
don't know y o u r mission clearly.

You better ask G o d p r o p e r l y like did


Moses on that day a long time ago. God is very
precise. He calls whom He wants to call
according to His predestination for His children.
Accordingly, God's purpose for Moses was to
use him in delivering the children of Israel out of
slavery. The mission included to lead and usher
God's people into the land of Caanan (a type of
heaven). So that he would divide to them the land
of their inheritance.

Unfortunately for Moses. According to scripture in


the book of Numbers 20, Moses did something that
made God to terminate his ministry and mission
halfway. The one million dollar question one
would ask is. Why did God terminate the
ministry of Moses? The answer is that Moses did
not reverence God as he should have. See
Numbers 20:10. What a catastrophic tragedy.
What a devastating incident. The other important
question one would ask is why did Moses commit
the mistake he committed? The other one would be
why didn't he avoid making the mistake he made?

I earlier talked about a person who brought a cub


lion home as his pet and it grew only to tear him to
pieces when he least expected.

Every question deserves an answer. Which is


why it's so important to answer the above
questions. Scripture in Psalms 11:3 helps us to
understand the matter properly.

If the foundations are destroyed, What can the


righteous do? Psalms 11:3

We understand from scripture where the problem


of Moses sprung up from. The foundation of anger
warring against his life and ministry. Having defined
what a foundation is. We can further understand
why the devil pulled on it's strings to make
Moses error. Through my continuous study and
discovery of bad foundations. I have come to
understand that a problematic foundation will
definitely destroy lives, visions, ministries, greatness and list
goes on.
MOSES HAD A FOUNDATION OF ANGER
FROM HIS ANCESTORS.

Moses was a decendant of Levi both from his


father's and mother's side. The scripture below
says;

She conceived again and bore a son, and said, “Now this
time my husband will become attached to me, because i have
borne him three sons.” Therefore his name was called Levi.
Genesis 29:34

Levi was a son of Jacob (Israel), he had him


through his first wife Leah whom he didn't love.
Child bearing for her was a way of making Jacob to
love her. It was clear to her that Jacob was in love
with Rachel her younger sister of. He loved her so
dearly.

WHO WAS LEVI LIKE?

He was a good fella. Only problem he had was


anger. Whenever he became angry you wouldn't
like him. On one fateful day. Levi was involved is
a serious killing rampage with his elder brother
Simeon who equally had anger issues.
This explains why it was easier for the two to
venture on a killing spree. They were birds of the
same feathers as scripture says. "Two cannot walk
together unless they agree" see Amos 3:2. Scripture
in Genesis 34 tells us of an incident in which Dinah
the daughter of Jacob was raped by Shechem the
crown prince and son of King Hamor. This
happened in the place where Jacob and his family
sojourned. The rape was a very sad incident.

Now Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne to


Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land. 2 And
when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the
country, saw her, he took her and lay with her, and
violated her. 3 His soul was strongly attracted to Dinah
the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the young woman and
spoke kindly to the young woman. 4 So Shechem spoke to
his father Hamor, saying, “Get me this young woman as a
wife.”

5 And Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter.


Now his sons were with his livestock in the field; so Jacob
held his peace until they came. 6 Then Hamor the father of
Shechem went out to Jacob to speak with him. 7 And the
sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard it;
and the men were grieved and very angry, because he had
done a disgraceful thing in Israel by lying with Jacob’s
daughter, a thing which ought not to be done. 8 But
Hamor spoke with them, saying, “The soul of my son
Shechem longs for your daughter. Please give her to him
as a wife. 9 And make marriages with us; give your
daughters to us, and take our daughters to yourselves. 10
So you shall dwell with us, and the land shall be before
you. Dwell and trade in it, and acquire possessions for
yourselves in it.”
11 Then Shechem said to her father and her brothers, “Let
me find favor in your eyes, and whatever you say to me i
will give. 12 Ask me ever so much dowry and gift, and I will
give according to what you say to me; but give me the
young woman as a wife.”
13 But the sons of J acob answered Shechem and Hamor
his father, and spoke deceitfully, because he had defiled
Dinah their sister. 14 And they said to them, “We cannot
do this thing, to give our sister to one who is
uncircumcised, for that would be a reproach to us. 15 But
on this condition we will consent to you: If you will
become as we are, if every male of you is circumcised, 16
then we will give our daughters to you, and we will take
your daughters to us; and we will dwell with you, and we
will become one people. 17 But if you will not heed us and
be circumcised, then we will take our daughter and be
gone.”

18 And their words pleased Hamor and Shechem, Hamor’s


son. 19 So the young man did not delay to do the thing,
because he delighted in Jacob’s daughter. He was more
honorable than all the household of his father.

20 And Hamor and Shechem his son came to the gate of


their city, and spoke with the men of their city, saying: 21
“These men are at peace with us. Therefore let them dwell
in the land and trade in it. For indeed the land is large
enough for them. Let us take their daughters to us as
wives, and let us give them our daughters. 22 Only on this
condition will the men consent to dwell with us, to be one
people: if every male among us is circumcised as they are
circumcised. 23 Will not their livestock, their property, and
every animal of theirs be ours? Only let us consent to
them, and they will dwell with us.” 24 And all who went out
of the gate of his city heeded Hamor and Shechem his son;
every male was circumcised, all who went out of the gate of
his city.

25 Now it came to pass on the third day, when they were


in pain, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and levi,
Dinah’s brothers, each took his sword and came boldly
upon the city and killed all the males. 26 And they killed
Hamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword, and
took Dinah from Shechem’s house, and went out. 27 The
sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and plundered the city,
because their sister had been defiled. 28 They took their
sheep, their oxen, and their donkeys, what was in the city
and what was in the field, 29 and all their wealth. All their
little ones and their wives they took captive; and they
plundered even all that was in the houses. 30 Then Jacob
said to Simeon and levi, “You have troubled me by making
me obnoxious among the inhabitants of the land, among the
Canaanites and the Perizzites; and since i am few in
number, they will gather themselves together against me
and kill me. I shall be destroyed, my household and i.”

31 But they said, “Should he treat our sister like a harlot?”


Genesis 34:1-31

What Shechem did at first was shameful. Such that in


trying to make amends he did not get the right deal. As
Dinah's brothers deceived him and all his people.
Simeon and Levi had a cunning plan. They tricked all the
men to get circumcised as a condition for peace and
intermarriages. A trick it was. It was a plan for
attacking them whilst they were still in pain.

25 Now it came to pass on the third day, when they were


in pain, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and levi,
Dinah’s brothers, each took his sword and came boldly
upon the city and killed all the males. 26 And they killed
Hamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword, and
took Dinah from Shechem’s house, and went out. 27 The
sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and plundered the city,
because their sister had been defiled. 28 They took their
sheep, their oxen, and their donkeys, what was in the city
and what was in the field, 29 and all their wealth. All their
little ones and their wives they took captive; and they
plundered even all that was in the houses.

What a great anger in Simeon and Levi. The


expression of it left every man dead in that city. In
other words it led to sinful behaviour in the eyes of
God and a cause for concern in the eyes of men.
The said behaviour was eventually rebuked by
their father whose daughter had been defiled by
Prince Shechem.

Years later, a day came when Jacob was about


to die so he called his sons to bless them. It's
shocking what Jacob said about his two sons
Simeon and Levi. The national founding father of
Israel had the following to say.

5 “Simeon and Levi are brothers;


Instruments of cruelty are in their dwelling place. 6 Let not
my soul enter their council;

Let not my honor be united to their assembly; For in


their anger they slew a man,

And in their self-will they hamstrung an ox. 7


Cursed be their anger, for it is fierce; And their
wrath, for it is cruel! I will divide them in J acob
And scatter them in Israel. Genesis 49:5-7

What a tragedy! Imagine such words coming


from a dying father. At such a crucial and
important stage. Instead of receiving a blessing
and good luck message. The two received a curse
for their anger. Simeon and Levi who probably
had gotten over their evil deeds just realised
how much in trouble they were still in for an
offence committed many years ago.

Years later, from the tribe of Levi a son was born


in the land of Egypt. Someone who was innocent
of the offences of Levi as we may wish to call it
and easily explain it away. Born of his people in
the country where their ancestors sojourned. We
need to understand something here. Spiritual life
and things are never to be looked at in the physical
way.
And a man of the house of Levi went and took as wife a
daughter of Levi. 2 So the woman conceived and bore a
son. And when she saw that he was a beautiful child, she
hid him three months. 3 But when she could no longer hide
him, she took an ark of bulrushes forhim, daubed it with
asphalt and pitch, put the child in it, and laid it in the reeds
by the river’s bank. 4 And his sister stood afar off, to know
what would be done to him.

5 Then the daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe at the


river. And her maidens walked along the riverside; and
when she saw the ark among the reeds, she sent her maid
to get it. 6 And when she opened it, she saw the child, and
behold, the baby wept. So she had compassion on him,
and said, “This is one of the Hebrews’ children.”

7 Then his sister said to Pharaoh’s daughter, “Shall I go


and call a nurse for you from the Hebrew women, that she
may nurse the child for you?”

8 And Pharaoh’s daughtersaid to her, “Go.” So the maiden


went and called the child’s mother. 9 Then Pharaoh’s
daughter said to her, “Take this child away and nurse him
for me, and I will give you your wages.” So the woman
took the child and nursed him. 10 And the child grew, and
she brought him to Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her
son. So she called his name Moses, saying, “Because I
drew him out of the water.” Genesis 2:1-10.

MOSES
Above scripture gives us an account of the birth
of Moses. Born to deliver his people Israel. Born at
a time when the king did not want any male child of
the people of Israel to be born because he had a
revelation that a deliverer of Israel would be born
from among the children of Israel. The king
somehow had regard of the scripture that said
Israel would be in slavery for 400 years. While
Israel had forgotten count of it their enemies did
not. I want you to understand this one. Believers
love to underestimate the enemy. On the other
hand the enemy seeks to outsmart the believers. I
want you to understand that curses don't decay.
Not even longevity or great passage of time would
nullify them. Jacob had said thus to Simenon and
Levi;

5 “Simeon and Levi are brothers;


Instruments of cruelty are in their dwelling place. 6 Let not
my soul enter their council;

Let not my honor be united to their assembly; For in their


anger they slew a man,

And in their self-will they hamstrung an ox. 7


Cursed be their anger, for it is fierce; And their
wrath, for it is cruel! I will divide them in J acob

And scatterthem in Israel. Genesis 49:5-7


In the above scripture we find something very
sad about anger, that it's fierce and it's wrath so
cruel. The words of a dying man which becomes
the most important words left for the living had
just been spoken. The Bible puts it's clear that
Jacob was set to bless and address his children
concerning their future. Now look at what Jacob
did concerning the anger of Simeon and Levi.

He cursed their anger. In case you didn't know.


It's already a terrible thing to have anger in you.
Now imagine to have a cursed anger. How big and
deep is the trouble? The last words that Jacob
said to Levi were not good.Yet the same words
spoken, ended up forming the foundation that
troubled good people in this tribe. The tribe of
Levi produced a lot of good people including
Miriam, Aaron, Moses, Zechariah and John the
Baptist. Good and righteous people. Most of whom
the said evil foundation of anger troubled and
destroyed in the end.
When Moses had become of age, he went
around to see his people the children of Israel. He
had been raised in the palace of Pharaoh the king
of the worlds super power country of that time.
Having been adopted as son by Pharaohs daughter.
He was raised and trained as a prince. Prepared to
be a Pharaoh of Egypt one day.
God allowed it for some reason. If you must
confront a Pharaoh you must know him well.
Understand him well, so Moses was the best
man for the task because he had successfully
finished his training on how to become a
Pharaoh. Moreover Moses grew up as a prince of
Egypt despite being a Jew.

Now it came to pass in those days, when Moses was


grown, that he went out to his brethren and looked at
their burdens. And he saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew,
one of his brethren. 12 So he looked this way and that way,
and when he saw no one, he killed the Egyptian and hid him
in the sand. 13 And when he went out the second day,
behold, two Hebrew men were fighting, and he said to the
one who did the wrong, “Why are you striking your
companion?”

14 Then he said, “Who made you a prince and a judge over


us? Do you intend to kill me as you killed the Egyptian?”
So Moses feared and said, “Surely this thing is known!”
Exodus 2:11-14

Moses, having discovered the fact that he was


not biological son of Pharaohs daughter and not a
blood member of the Egyptian royal family. Also
having discovered that he was a Jew. It didn't sit well
with him looking at an Egyptian mistreating a Jew.
Without wasting time or thinking twice, he killed
the Egyptian and buried him in the sand.
The million dollar questions we can ask is; why?
Why did he kill the Egyptian? Was it really
necessary to take that line of action in the very first
place? Why didn't he just reprimand him about his
behaviour? Why go to that extent to kill a man no
questions asked? Moses was a good man, yes, a
man of justice and the people. Yet to go as far as ki
ling a person was rather too extreme.
You really must get angry, i mean so angry
enough to take another man's life. But Moses
couldn't have avoided it. To get angry such that
the only option for him was to kill an Egyptian
was the inevitable for him. We can say the
Egyptian was wrong, yes but wasn't it too
irrational to kill him for that? The Bible in Psalms
11:3 says

If the foundations are destroyed, What can the righteous


do? Moses was simply a good man. Yet his
foundation which had not been destroyed was
already working. The foundation of anger.

And when he went out the second day, behold, two


Hebrew men were fighting, and he said to the one who did
the wrong, “Why are you striking your companion?”

14 Then he said, “Who made you a prince and a judge over


us? Do you intend to kill me as you killed the Egyptian?”

So Moses feared and said, “Surely this thing is known!”


15 When Pharaoh heard of this matter, he sought to kill
Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh and dwelt
in the land of Midian; and he sat down by a well. Exodus
2:13-14.

Realising that his offence committed in anger had


been known and fearing to be killed by Pharaoh.
Moses fled to Midian. A place where he
eventually married a wife and had kids. He lived
there a great while.

16. Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters. And


they came and drew water, and they filled the troughs to
water their father’s flock.
17 Then the shepherds came and drove them away; but
Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.

18 When they came to Reuel their father, he said, “How is


it that you have come so soon today?”

19 And they said, “An Egyptian delivered us from the hand


of the shepherds, and he also drew enough water forus
and watered the flock.”

20 So he said to his daughters, “And where is he? Why is it


that you have left the man? Call him, that he may eat
bread.”

21 Then Moses was content to live with the man, and he


gave Zipporah his daughter to Moses. 22 And she bore him
a son. He called his name Gershom, for he said, “I have
been a stranger in a foreign land.” Exodus 2:16-22

Back in Egypt his brethren were neck deep in


trouble. They were perplexed and overwhelmed by
the harsh treatment they received from the
Egyptian task masters. They cried out to the God of
their ancestors Abraham, Isaac and J acob.

Now it happened in the process of time that the king of


Egypt died. Then the children of Israel groaned because of
the bondage, and they cried out; and their cry came up to
God because of the bondage. 24 So God heard their
groaning, and God remembered His covenant with
Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. 25 And God looked
upon the children of Israel, and God acknowledged them.
Exodus 2:23-25

He was born to become a deliverer at the


opportune time. Whilst in Midian, the cries of the
Hebrews, his people reached to the God of their
ancestors. It was just about time for God to call
Moses into ministry.

Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-


law, the priest of Midian. And he led the flock to the back of
the desert, and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. 2 And
the Angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire
from the midst of a bush. So he looked, and behold, the
bush was burning with fire, but the bush was not
consumed. 3 Then Moses said, “I will now turn aside and
see this great sight, why the bush does not burn.”
4 So when the Lord saw that he turned aside to look, God
called to him from the midst of the bush and said, “Moses,
Moses!”

And he said, “Here I am.”

5 Then He said, “Do not draw near this place. Take your
sandals off your feet, for the place where you stand is
holy ground.” 6 Moreover He said, “I am the God of your
father—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the
God of J acob.” And Moses hid his face, for he was afraid
to look upon God.

7 And the Lord said: “I have surely seen the oppression of


My people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry
because of their taskmasters, for I know their sorrows. 8
So i have come down to deliver them out of the hand of
the Egyptians, and to bring them up from that land to a
good and large land, to a land flowing with milk and
honey, to the place of the Canaanites and the Hittites and
the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the
Jebusites. 9 Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children
of Israel has come to Me, and I have also seen the
oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them. 10
Come now, therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh that
you may bring My people, the children of Israel, out of
Egypt.”

11 But Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to


Pharaoh, and that I should bring the children of Israel out
of Egypt?”
12 So He said, “I will certainly be with you. And this
shall be a sign to you that I have sent you: When you have
brought the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God on
this mountain.”

13 Then Moses said to God, “Indeed, when I come to the


children of Israel and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers
has sent me to you,’ and they say to me, ‘What is His
name?’ what shall I say to them?”

14 And God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” And He said,


“Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, ‘I AM has
sent me to you.’” 15 Moreover God said to Moses, “Thus
you shall say to the children of Israel: ‘The Lord God of
your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and
the God of Jacob, has sent me to you. This is My name
forever, and this is My memorial to all generations.’ 16 Go
and gather the elders of Israel together, and say to them,
‘The Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of
Isaac, and of Jacob, appeared to me, saying, “I have
surely visited you and seen what is done to you in Egypt; 17
and I have said I will bring you up out of the affliction of
Egypt to the land of the Canaanites and the Hittites and
the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the
Jebusites, to a land flowing with milk and honey.”’ 18
Then they will heed your voice; and you shall come, you
and the elders of Israel, to the king of Egypt; and you shall
say to him, ‘The Lord God of the Hebrews has met with
us; and now, please, let us go three days’ journey into the
wilderness, that we may sacrifice to the Lord our God.’ 19
But I am sure that the king of Egypt will not let you go,
no, not even by a mighty hand. 20 So I will stretch out My
hand and strike Egypt with all My wonders which I will do in
its midst; and afterthat he will let you go. 21 And I will give
this people favor in the sight of the Egyptians; and it shall
be, when you go, that you shall not go empty-handed. 22
But every woman shall ask of her neighbor, namely, of her
who dwells near her house, articles of silver, articles of
gold, and clothing; and you shall put them on your sons
and on your daughters . So you shall plunder the
Egyptians.” Exodus 3:1-22

He was called. His call did not take the anger away
from him. He still had his anger within him.
Precise to call it an enemy within. Aware of his
star and mission. The devil had already made
calculations on how to end the ministry of
Moses. A deliverer of his people. The devil hates
every deliverer with a passion. He showed it in
how he fought Moses, Joseph and our Lord Jesus
Christ.

If you are the deliverer of your family he hates


you too. Moses had just been called to ministry.
Just so you know, God can call and use
anybody. Irrespective of their background and
origin. Moses was called with all his faults. Just
like so many people have been called as pastors,
apostles, prophets, evangelists, teachers,
psalmists and list goes on to do the work of God.

Others have been called to be councilors, mayors,


members of parliament, senators, governors and
presidents in the political secular service. Yet all
have their calling from God. Moses too was
called on such a big mission.
A close look at the details of his calling and
mission. It's clear that Moses was commanded to
deliver the people of Israel out of Egypt and
usher them into the land Cannan. God said it and
meant it. Moses went to Egypt where God used
him to perform so much signs and wonders. He
eventually succeeded to get the congregation of
the Lord out of the land of Ham. After series of
resistance by Pharaoh.
The Lord God consistence is performing
wonders. Parted water at the Red Sea on the spot
the children of Israel were going to use. Attempting
to pass on dry land in the midst of the sea. The
Egyptian army and Pharaoh drowned.

There was a problem. After Moses delivered the


children of Israel by the Mighty power of God,
he started encountering some problems with the
children of Israel. The biggest being disbelief and
murmurings. At any challenge they faced they
would murmur and exibit disbelief.

Recorded in some parts of the Bible are some


incidents that revealed the anger that Moses had
inside. Inherited from his ancestor Levi.

Then all the congregation of the children of Israel set out


on their journey from the Wilderness of Sin, according to the
commandment of the Lord, and camped in Rephidim; but
there was no water for the people to drink. 2 Therefore the
people contended with Moses, and said, “Give us water,
that we may drink.”

So Moses said to them, “Why do you contend with me? Why


do you tempt the Lord?”

3 And the people thirsted there for water, and the people
complained against Moses, and said, “Why is it you have
brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us and ourchildren and
ourlivestock with thirst?”

4 So Moses cried out to the Lord, saying, “What shall I do


with this people? They are almost ready to stone me!”

5 And the Lord said to Moses, “Go on before the people,


and take with you some of the elders of Israel. Also take in
your hand your rod with which you struck the river, and go.
6 Behold, I will stand before you there on the rock in
Horeb; and you shall strike the rock, and water will come
out of it, that the people may drink.”

And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel. 7 So


he called the name of the place Massah and Meribah,
because of the contention of the children of Israel, and
because they tempted the Lord, saying, “Is the Lord among
us or not?” Exodus 17:1-7

They were murmurers. Let me explain this. It's


not true that people who have an evil foundation of
anger are bad people. Infact they are the nicest
people you can ever meet and know. Their anger
appears especially when they are angered and
offended. Yet it doesn't matter who offends you.
You can definitely get neck deep into hot soup if
your angergetsout.ofhand.
From above scripture. Evidence is presented
regards the the ones who where at fault. It's clear
to see that Moses wasn't at fault. Just as it's not
always your fault when you get angry. In most
instances someone else gets you really pissed off.
Yet it does n't prevent you from falling into serious
trouble if you don't handle the issue cautiously. If
you are a believer in our Lord Jesus Christ. Make sure
you keep yourself in check. In Exodus 20 something
historical and profound occurred.
The Lord gave Moses the 10 commandments
and other laws meant to govern the holy nation of
Israel. This took place on top of Mount Sinai.
Moses was away from the people for 40 days and
40 nights. The children of Israel bothered by the
absence of Moses. They hastily treated the absence
of Moses as the absence of God. They troubled
Aaron to make them something to worship. An
alternative thing to worship in the place of God
whom Moses preached and served. That was
terribly sinful thing to do.

Now when the people saw that Moses delayed coming


down from the mountain, the people gathered together to
Aaron, and said to him, “Come, make us gods that shall go
before us; for as for this Moses, the man who brought us up
out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become
of him.”

2 And Aaron said to them, “Break off the golden earings


which are in the ears of your wives, your sons, and your
daughters, and bring them to me.” 3 So all the people
broke off the golden earings which were in their ears, and
brought them to Aaron. 4 And he received the gold from
their hand, and he fashioned it with an engraving tool,
and made a molded calf.

Then they said, “This is your god, O Israel, that brought


you out of the land of Egypt!”

5 So when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it. And


Aaron made a proclamation and said, “Tomorrow is a
feast to the Lord.” 6 Then they rose early on the next day,
offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and
the people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

They had just come out of the land of


Egypt. Still accustomed to the Egyptian culture
and way of life. Being strangers to the way of their
ancestors Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Despite
having seen the mighty signs and wonders the
Lord worked by the hand of his servant Moses.
The people did not know the Lord and His ways.
After Moses had delayed in coming back from
the mountain. The people mounted pressure on
Aaron the spokesman of Moses. They demanded
of him to make an idol. Something they should
temporarily call god and worship. They never
knew the ways of God. Moreover they saw how
the Egyptians would make a god and begin to
worship it instantly.
Aaron without fearing God made them what they
had requested for. A number of believers would try
to wait on the Lord for sometime and then try any
other thing that they feel would work faster for
them. This happens because of impatience and
luck of faith in God.
God saw what the people had done and was
angry. In his speech to Moses he disowned them.
He referred to them as the people of Moses. The
other side the worship which is derseved by God
alone was being channeled to a worthless idol. As
if that wasn't enough they rose early to sacrifice to
the golden idol. They ate food and drunk in a way
that led to immorality.

And the Lord said to Moses, “Go, get down! For your
people whom you brought out of the land of Egypt have
corrupted themselves. 8 They have turned aside quickly
out of the way which I commanded them. They have made
themselves a molded calf, and worshiped it and sacrificed
to it, and said, ‘This is your god, O Israel, that brought you
out of the land of Egypt!’” 9 And the Lord said to Moses, “I
have seen this people, and indeed it is a stiff-necked people!
10 Now therefore, let Me alone, that My wrath may burn
hot against them and I may consume them. And I will make
of you a great nation.”
11 Then Moses pleaded with the Lord his God, and said:
“Lord, why does Your wrath burn hot against Your people
whom You have brought out of the land of Egypt with
great power and with a mighty hand? 12 Why should the
Egyptians speak, and say, ‘He brought them out to harm
them, to kill them in the mountains, and to consume them
from the face of the earth’? Turn from Your fierce wrath,
and relent from this harm to Your people.

13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, Your servants,


to whom You swore by Your own self, and said to them, ‘I
will multiply yourdescendants as the stars of heaven; and all
this land that I have spoken of I give to your descendants,
and they shall inherit it forever.’” 14 So the Lord relented
from the harm which He said He would do to His people.
Exodus 32:7-14

The Lord explained to Moses what was


happening in the camp of Israel. He
emphatically stated how ready he was to destroy
them. As a matter of fact he even told Moses to
leave so that God can destroy those who
participated in worshipping a golden calf.
Proming to form another nation through. Moses.
As earlier stated, Moses, despite having a
faulty foundation. He was not a bad man. As a
matter of fact he was the best intercessor before
the Lord. The people had done a terrible thing in
the eyes of the Lord. Yet Moses interceded for them
before the Lord.
Now when the people saw that Moses delayed coming
down from the mountain, the people gathered together to
Aaron, and said to him, “Come, make us gods that shall
go before us; for as for this Moses, the man who brought us
up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has
become of him.”

2 And Aaron said to them, “Break off the golden ea rings


which are in the ears of your wives, your sons, and your
daughters, and bring them to me.” 3 So all the people
broke off the golden ea rings which were in their ears, and
brought them to Aaron. 4 And he received the gold from
their hand, and he fashioned it with an engraving tool,
and made a molded calf.

Then they said, “This is your god, O Israel, that brought


you out of the land of Egypt!”

5 So when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it. And


Aaron made a proclamation and said, “Tomorrow is a
feast to the Lord.” 6 Then they rose early on the next day,
offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and
the people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.
Exodus 32:1-5

It was a te rible event. Even as we look at the


foundation of anger in the life of Moses. Let us
understand that the mistake of Aaron and the
people was great. The Lord told Moses to go and
check what they were doing.
And the Lord said to Moses, “Go, get down! For your
people whom you brought out of the land of Egypt have
corrupted themselves. 8 They have turned aside quickly
out of the way which I commanded them. They have made
themselves a molded calf, and worshiped it and sacrificed
to it, and said, ‘This is your god, O Israel, that brought you
out of the land of Egypt!’” 9 And the Lord said to Moses, “I
have seen this people, and indeed it is a stiff-necked people!
10 Now therefore, let Me alone, that My wrath may burn
hot against them and I may consume them. And I will make
of you a great nation.”

11 Then Moses pleaded with the Lord his God, and said:
“Lord, why does Your wrath burn hot against Your people
whom You have brought out of the land of Egypt with
great power and with a mighty hand? 12 Why should the
Egyptians speak, and say, ‘He brought them out to harm
them, to kill them in the mountains, and to consume them
from the face of the earth’? Turn from Your fierce wrath,
and relent from this harm to Your people.

13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, Your servants,


to whom You swore by Your own self, and said to them, ‘I
will multiply your descendants as the stars of heaven; and all
this land that I have spoken of I give to your descendants,
and they shall inherit it forever.’” 14 So the Lord relented
from the harm which He said He would do to His people.

15 And Moses turned and went down from the mountain,


and the two tablets of the Testimony were in his hand. The
tablets were written on both sides; on the one side and on
the other they were written. 16 Now the tablets were the
work of God, and the writing was the writing of God
engraved on the tablets.

17 And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they


shouted, he said to Moses, “There is a noise of war in the
camp.”

18 But he said:

“It is not the noise of the shout of victory, Nor the noise
of the cry of defeat, But the sound of singing I hear.”
Exodus 32:7-18

The Lord sent Moses back into the camp of Israel.


He quite alright had done what any good
intercessor should do. His intercession was
received with favor by God. Coming back into
the camp of Israel. Something terrible happened.

So it was, as soon as he came near the camp, that he saw


the calf and the dancing. So Moses’ anger became hot, and
he cast the tablets out of his hands and broke them at the
foot of the mountain. Exodus 32:19

I want you to underline the words (Moses's


anger became hot) he was so angry. He
overlooked the fact that he held the two stone tablets
in his hands. The two stone tablets were the stones
on which God had written His law. Written by God
himself with His own fingers. In his anger, Moses
rushed to break the stone tablets. Something he
wouldn't consider doing had he been in his right
mind.
All that happened as a result of the underlined
words in brackets. It was necessary to get angry
because of what he found them doing
(worshipping the golden calf). He didn't have to sin
because of that. Unfortunately that wasn't the
case. Moses controlled by his anger broke the two
stone tablets. Written on not by man but by God.
As a result, the Lord had to write the 10
commandments again.
You can tell how powerful his undelt with evil
foundation had become. He still never saw the need to
get deliverance from anger. He was anointed. Very
anointed as a matter of fact yet it never changed the
position of God's word in Psalms 11:3.

If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous


do?

Later on the journey. As the children of Israel


came to a strategic point on their way to Canaan.
Somewhere close to the promised Land. nearing
t. Something that could have been avoided
happened. Numbers 20:12
Then the children of Israel, the whole congregation, came
into the Wilderness of Zin in the first month, and the
people stayed in Kadesh; and Miriam died there and was
buried there.

2 Now there was no water for the congregation; so they


gathered together against Moses and Aaron.
3 And the people contended with Moses and spoke,
saying: “If only we had died when our brethren died
before the Lord! 4 Why have you brought up the
assembly of the Lord into this wilderness, that we and
our animals should die here? 5 And why have you made
us come up out of Egypt, to bring us to this evil place? It is
not a place of grain or figs or vines or pomegranates; nor
is there any water to drink.” 6 So Moses and Aaron went
from the presence of the assembly to the door of the
tabernacle of meeting, and they fell on their faces. And the
glory of the Lord appeared to them.

7 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 8 “Take the rod;


you and your brother Aaron gather the congregation
together. Speak to the rock before their eyes, and it will
yield its water; thus you shall bring water for them out of
the rock, and give drink to the congregation and their
animals.” 9 So Moses took the rod from before the Lord as
He commanded him.

10 And Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly together


before the rock; and he said to them, “Hear now, you
rebels! Must we bring water for you out of this rock?” 11
Then Moses lifted his hand and struck the rock twice with
his rod; and water came out abundantly, and the
congregation and their animals drank.
12 Then the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, “Because you
did not believe Me, to hallow Me in the eyes of the
children of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this
assembly into the land which I have given them.”
The above scripture talks about the time when
the children of Israel murmured against Moses
because there was no water. The people said a lot
of things. They were even missing Egypt.
Because of the people. Moses and Aaron went to
the Lord and God told them what to do.

Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 8 “Take the rod; you
and your brother Aaron gather the congregation together.
Speak to the rock before their eyes, and it will yield its
water; thus you shall bring water for them out of the rock,
and give drink to the congregation and their animals.”
Numbers 11:7-8

As clear as that commandment was, the Lord only


told him to speak to the rock. Returning from the tent
of meetings. Moses's anger was kindled again so that
he did not speak properly about the Lord before the
children of Israel. In short he did not reverence God
or give him glory before the children of Israel
because he was angry. He said ;
And Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly together
before the rock; and he said to them, “Hear now, you
rebels! Must we bring water for you out of this rock?”
Numbers 20:10
He needed deliverance. Fact that he never asked for it
gave opportunity to the devil to use Moses's anger
against him. This was in order to destroy his ministry
and life. What a tragedy ! What a way to have his
ministry terminated as the Lord said to him the
following words.
Then the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, “Because you
did not believe Me, to hallow Me in the eyes of the
children of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this
assembly into the land which I have given them.”
Numbers 20:12
Moreover that was not the only mistake Moses
made because of anger. The Lord had
commanded him to speak to the rock. So that the
rock can bring forth water. Now here is what Moses
did. He struck the rock twice with his staff and
water came out anyways.
Anger has made a lot of people to say what they
shouldn't and to do what they shouldn't. Was it the
will of God that the ministry of Moses should end
as it did? Absolutely not. One thing to always
consider is the fact that God is very particular
about His glory.

"I am the Lord, that is My name; And My glory I will not give
to another,
Nor My praise to carved images". Isaiah 42:8

Moses however tried his best to plead for mercy


but it wasn't granted him to remain the leader of
Israel. The Lord even rebuked him and forbade him
from talking about that matter again. It was that
serious.
“Then I pleaded with the Lord at that time, saying:
24 ‘O Lord God, You have begun to show Your servant
Your greatness and Your mighty hand, for what god is
there in heaven or on earth who can do anything like Your
works and Your mighty deeds? 25 I pray, let me cross over
and see the good land beyond the Jordan, those pleasant
mountains, and Lebanon.’

26 “But the Lord was angry with me on your account, and


would not listen to me. So the Lord said to me: ‘Enough of
that! Speak no more to Me of this matter. Deutronomy
3:23-26
If you have anger in you such that it drives you to
do the unthinkable. You urgently need deliverance.
Do not allow the enemy to use it to destroy things
for you at the verge of your breakthrough or in the
prime of your life. Anger that Moses inherited from
his ancestor Levi was used to destroy him.

Psalms 106:32-33
They angered Him also at the waters of strife,
So that it went ill with Moses on account of them; 33
Because they rebelled against His Spirit, So that he spoke
rashly with his lips.

The above scripture in verse 33 tells us that


Moses spoke rashly with his lips. See Numbers
20:10-12. Evidence has already been presented in
this topic. Evidence that shows that when people
are angry. They can say what they don't mean to.
As a result of such. There are repercussions that
follows. It's wise to seek deliverance as soon as
possible.

Moses who was destined to enter Cannan learnt


the rules the hard way. It was already too late to get
deliverance from the foundation of anger. He was
still saved and has made it to heaven yet his
ministry and life was truncated. Sad thing he never
entered Canaan. Just like there are so many people who
have not entered their place of destiny. As you read on i
declare in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ that no evil
foundation will stop you from reaching your destiny.
PRAYER OF ACTIVATION
My heavenly Father, i reverence you as holy. Forgive
me and my ancestors all our sins and the anger we
have used to sin against you Lord.
I admit i have a furious anger in me that makes me to
sin against you Lord. I forgive everyone who has
wronged me before. I let go every grudge and
resentment i have been keeping in my heart. Lord
Jesus set me free. I renounce anger and all its sinful
characteristics. Two cannot walk together unless they
agree, as for me i disagree with the spirit of anger in
Jesus name. Teach me to live in love, yes to love
everyone especially my enemies. Thank you for your
forgiveness and deliverance as i have faith in you that
you have forgiven me. Thank you Lord, teach me to
live better than before in Jesus name Amen.
5. BE ANGRY AND DO NOT SIN

Alot has been said about anger. Notably in


scripture, we are admonished square concerning
this very thing;

“Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on
your wrath", Ephesians 4:26
This is extremely serious. This is something to work
on effectively. Almost everyone has been
offended by someone. Meaning almost every
one has the potential of becoming angry with
someone for some reason. Yet we are told the following
in scripture.

“Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on
your wrath",

It means anger leads to sin. This is not a


move to stop anybody from getting angry. We are
simply warned not to sin in our anger. The one
million dollar question one should ask is; how
can i be angry and not sin? This is not an easy one
if you asked me. As anger robs one of
composure that enables the good sense of
judgment. We do not realise what to think, say and
how to behave.
So how are we not to sin when we get angry?
Mind you anger is one inevitable thing in life. Being
angry is something that comes upon all. If we are told
in scripture that we can actually get angry and
not sin. It means we can achieve this. We cannot
sin against God our loving Father if we follow
scripture. We can succeed by obeying above
scripture.

"Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels,


but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a
clanging cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy,
and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and
though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains,
but have not love, I am nothing. 3 And though I bestow all
my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to
be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.

4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love
does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5 does not behave
rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no
evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;
7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things,
endures all things.

8 Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they


will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease;
whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. 9 For we
know in part and we prophesy in part. 10 But when that
which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will
be done away. 1 Corinthians 13:1-10
If not for the manner of love we are commanded
in scripture. It remains a farfetched dream. Unless
there is love so deep and so real. It's hard to be
angry and not sin. This talks about sincerely loving
God and our neighbors as we love ourselves.

Love or loving according to above scripture does


not eliminate the possibility of getting angry. It
eliminates the possibility of sinning when we get
angry. It helps us to remain calm even if there
would be a chance of losing our cool. You would
easily overlook the wrong. You will treat it through
the eyes of forgiveness, tolerance, long suffering
and list is endless because above everything in
you there is the love of God.
This prepares you to forgive no matter what. To
tell you what! the devil wants you to hold a grudge.
He wants you to hate and stop talking to certain
persons. To vow never to see certain individuals
again. To esteem their wrong doings more than our
ability to overlook it and forgive them. Jesus said;

"For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly


Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive
men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your
trespasses". Matthews 6:14-15

Forgiveness is not an easy thing. It's not for the


weak. It's for for the strong. Those who are able to
remove their ego and swallow their pride. It's for
those who acknowledge the fact that they too
needs the Lord's forgiveness and mercy. Those
who are cognisant of the condition of obtaining
the Lord's mercy as stated in the following
scripture;
For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly
Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive
men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your
trespasses. Matthews 6:14-15
Most of us believers love to ignore this most
important scripture. We would rather quote 1 John
1:9 when asking for God's forgiveness when we
don't want to forgive others.
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us
our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 J
ohn 1:9
As true as the above scripture is. It does not
relieve you and i of our personal responsibility
when asking for God's mercy and forgiveness.
When you and i want to confess to the Lord in line
with the above scripture. We should ask ourselves
if we have done what we are commanded to in the
fo lowing scripture;

“For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly


Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive
men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your
trespasses. Matthews 6:14-15

It's that practical. Moreover we are


commanded never to let the sun go down on our
anger. We are being trained in effective and
sinless anger management techniques. We are
being trained to walk in the spirit of self control.
Above all we are being trained to walk in love as
the children of a forgiving God. Slow to anger
and abundant in steadfast love.

I trust the Lord that this chapter has blessed your


life. Changed and delivered you from the spirit of
anger. Proceed to learn how to effectively pull
down the foundation of anger in your life. I
prophesy to you that your life will never be the
same again in Jesus name Amen. You will move in
great victories and breakthroughs. What stopped
others will not stop you in J esus name Amen.

PRAYER OF ACTIVATION
My heavenly Father i reverence you as holy. Forgive me
and my ancestors all our sins and the anger we have
used to sin against you Lord.
I admit i have a furious anger in me that makes me to
sin against you Lord. I forgive everyone who has
wronged me before. I let go every grudge and
resentment i have been keeping in my heart. Lord Jesus
Christ set me free. I renounce anger and all its sinful

6. PULLING DOWN THE FOUNDATION OF ANGER


I always thank God Almighty because the Word of
God from the Bible is a complete package of
solutions to literally every problem. It's paramount
to understand however that anger is a spirit. Jesus
in scripture demonstrated how to deal with evil
spirits.

When Jesus saw that the people came running together,


He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it: “deaf and
dumb spirit, I command you, come out of him and enter
him no more!” 26 Then the spirit cried out, convulsed him
greatly, and came out of him. And he became as one dead,
so that many said, “He is dead.” 27 But J esus took him by
the hand and lifted him up, and he arose. Mark 9:25-27

Above scripture shows us how Jesus dealt with


evil spirits. The formula for dealing with evil spirits is
literally the same. The minister can employ
different strategies as the Spirit leads. Presented in
this chapter are principles for effective
undertaking. As an intercessor in the deliverance
department.
The Lord has been teaching me on dealing with
these issues and closely i have followed how my
mother in the Lord Sis Hellen Ngwira goes
about deliverance. How my father's Apostle
Geoffrey Musonda and Br. David Ikara goes
about it. I observed how Prophet Musaiwale
Zulu and Sis Prisca handles deliverance. So my
writing on this very subject is backed by scriptures on
deliverance. I give glory to God for the spiritual
exposure and inspiration available.
The coming of Jesus Christ from the wilderness
brought on the scene another level of spiritual
warfare. His coming on the scene showcased the
power of God and the demonstration of the
same. In dealing with diabolic, satanic, ancestral,
and generation bandages. Quoting from scripture
He said;
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, Because He has
anointed Me

To preach the gospel to the poor;


He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To
proclaim liberty to the captives

And recovery of sight to the blind,


To set at liberty those who are oppressed; Luke 4:18
One day He went to the synagogue full of the
anointing and the grace. He was given the scroll of
Isaiah were he read the above.

And He was handed the book of the prophet Isaiah. And


when He had opened the book, He found the place where it
was written: Luke 4:17

Without wasting time he brought to the fore


powerful revelation knowledge He left no stone
unturned to demonstrate. Before then, people
were oppressed by the millitant powers of
darkness. Christ came as a game changer and
nothing would remain the same again forever.
Before then since then people were being
destroyed by spirit of anger and other evil
spirits.
Many people have been destroyed by the spirit
of anger. Others have missed their destiny and
today they are living for nothing. As you are reading
this chapter, it doesn't matter what the spirit of
anger has made you to lose. By the end of this
chapter you will get delivered in Jesus name
Amen. As for what you have lost because of the
the spirit of anger. You will recover all with
punitive damages as compensation in this regard.

But He answered and said, “Every plant which My heavenly


Father has not planted will be uprooted. Matthews 15:13.

ANGER:
It's normal to get angry. There are many factors
that make people angry including deliverance
ministers. Many pastors, prophets, prophetesses,
apostles, evangelists and believers deal with anger
everyday. As it's one of the weapons such as
fornication, adultery, lust and many others which
are used by the kingdom of darkness to make
people irrelevant and lose their destiny.
Life is very dynamic let us not run away from this
fact. Anger is a spirit that has no body yet it seeks
to use any available body for it to find the
expression it desperately needs. Even as we deal
with it let us understand this one thing. No human
is truly yours and mine enemy. Did i say a person
can't behave as an enemy? I didn't say that. Apostle
Paul knowing fully how tempted we would be in
dealing with our would be offenders addressed
this issue square. He said;

Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the


power of His might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that
you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against
principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the
darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness
in the heavenly places. Ephesians 6:10-12

The devil or his demons would use a willing


person to offend us. Not merely someone who
doesn't like us but in certain instances he can use
even people we love. That's why it hurts so much
and would get us really angry. The enemies of the
offender and the offended are the ones listed in
the scriptuture above.
They are disembodied beings and spirit that
needs a body of a human in order to have their full
expression. They do this whilst blinding people
from seeing them as masterminds. They want you
to see the person they are using to bring about the
offence. As your enemy.
It's not every one who offends us who does so by
evil spirit involvement. Someone may be telling us
the truth about something or correcting us and
our way of life. Truth hurts hence arousing the anger.
Getting angry were necessary is not a problem
but what comes out of it. The line of action we are
likely to take when we are angry..

“Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on
your wrath, Ephesians 4:26

The problem was not fact that Moses was getting


angry. It was what he used to do each time he got
angry. He would unnecessary kill an Egyptian,
break the tablets were the 10 commandments
were written. He would forget to give glory to
God and follow God's instructions resulting in his
life and ministry being prematurely cut short.

DEALING WITH ANGER:

In order for us to successfully pull down the


foundation of anger in our lives. We need to
understand that as an emotion. Anger is not sinful. As
long as it doesn't lead us to any other sinful
reactions and outbursts. We can get angry reason
why the following scripture says
“Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down
on your wrath, Ephesians 4:26
We are told not to sin as we get angry. This is
something to take seriously. Which is why we
are equally admonished not to keep the anger till
sunset. It means if the sun goes down and you are
still angry it's a sin. Whether you are possessed,
oppressed and afflicted by the spirit of anger.
Below are the formulas that will help you pull
down the foundation of anger. The foundation of
anger which affected Moses was in no wise natural.
Once you discover you have this problem in you.
Go through the following steps and act upon
them in the attitude of prayer.

Accepting you have a problem helps you to find a


lasting solution with ease. It's the sick person who
goes in search of a doctor. Once you notice that
the anger in you is beyond reasonableness. You
need to first accept that you have a problem. You
need to understand that there is help in God.
Especially if you mostly do things you end up
regretting doing or you say things beyond what you
could normally say.
The next step is to seek were you can find
solution and here i recommend that you visit a
Bible believing church and seek to speak to the
pastor about your issue. Open up as much as you
can and make sure you follow up with
counselling before you undergo deliverance
prayers. If it's a demon (spirit of anger) it will have
to be casted out.

When Jesus saw that the people came running together,


He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it: “deaf and
dumb spirit, I command you, come out of him and enter
him no more!”

The above scripture is the viable and working


solution to address this problem square. We need
to understand each time we are casting out the
anger spirit or indeed any other spirit that we cast
it out in the name of Jesus Christ. We have been
empowered to deal with all these in the name of
Jesus Christ
.
Then the seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the
demons are subject to us in Your name.”

18 And He said to them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning


from heaven. 19 Behold, I give you the authority to
trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power
of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
Luke 10:17-19

If it's an alter of anger that has been in existence


either from your father's or from your mothers side.
It has to be dealt with square together with the idol
of anger that empowers that alter. We need to pull
down that alter of anger prayerfully and always
following the leading of the Holy Spirit to lead us as
we embark on such a mission.
No matter how many times or years we have
done this. No matter how much experience we
may have in this area. We can not out grow the
Lord. Getting rid of evil alters is a must. We can
do it by tearing them down. This must be done
with the leading of the Holy Spirit for guaranteed
success and victory. Gideon in the book of Judges
was directed to physically destroy the evil alter of
Baal (an heathen god and idol) of his fathers house.
He was further told to raise a righteous alter to the
Lord.

Now it came to pass the same night that the Lord said to
him, “Take your father’s young bull, the second bull of
seven years old, and tear down the altar of Baal that your
father has, and cut down the wooden image that is beside
it; 26 and build an altar to the Lord your God on top of this
rock in the proper arrangement, and take the second bull
and offer a burnt sacrifice with the wood of the image
which you shall cut down.” Judges 6:25-26
Evil alters are gotten rid of through genuine
repentance. Renouncing them and pulling them
down in total surrender to Jesus Christ is a powerful
redemptive formula. If people have not yet given
their lives to Jesus. It could be the perfect time to
make them receive Jesus as their personal Lord
and saviour.
In case it's in the bloodline and moves from
generation to generation. The prescription is to
jump the evil bloodline. Dr Francis Myles taught a
very powerful spiritual exercise. In March 2021,
during one of his Apostolic visits to Lusaka
Zambia. I attended the service and the Holy Spirit
prophetically led him to make us jump the evil
bloodline as a way of escape from ancentral
bondage which moves in the bloodline. If it's a
curse of anger we still need to handle it scripturally.
Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having
become a curse for us (for it is written, “cursed is everyone
who hangs on a tree”), Galatians 3:13
The Lord taught me by revelation that it's not
from the curse of the law alone that one should be
saved from. It's from every curse there can be. So if
the anger in you is a "cursed anger" like in the tribe
of Levi which in turn affected Moses. There is a
way out for you in the name of Jesus Christ.
It has a respite, yes, the finished work of the
cross of calvary and all it's spiritual implications
of redemption. There is a way out through the
resurrection power of our Lord Jesus Christ.
It must include the discipline of prayer and
fasting. While prayer is the process of involving
God to legally intervene in our affairs. It works
better applied along side fasting. Fasting as you
may already know does not change God. Yet since
it changes the person who is fasting. For instance
if your doors of breakthrough are closed by the
devil.
If you fast o fte nt i m e s the doors will not
remain closed to you. One thing i appreciate in
deliverance was the point the Lord Jesus made
when casting out a stubborn evil spirit which his
disciples failed to cast out despite their growing
experience in casting out demons.
And when He came to the disciples, He saw a great
multitude around them, and scribes disputing with them.
15 Immediately, when they saw Him, all the people were
greatly amazed, and running to Him, greeted Him. 16 And
He asked the scribes, “What are you discussing with
them?”

17 Then one of the crowd answered and said, “Teacher, I


brought You my son, who has a mute spirit. 18 And
wherever it seizes him, it throws him down; he foams at the
mouth, gnashes his teeth, and becomes rigid. So I spoke to
Your disciples, that they should cast it out, but they could
not.”

19 He answered him and said, “O faithless generation,


how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with
you? Bring him to Me.”
20
Then they brought him to Him. And when he saw Him,
immediately the spirit convulsed him, and he fell on the
ground and wallowed, foaming at the mouth.

21 So He asked his father, “How long has this been


happening to him?”

And he said, “From childhood. 22 And often he has thrown


him both into the fire and into the water to destroy him.
But if You can do anything, have compassion on us and
help us.”

23 Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are
possible to him who believes.”

24 Immediately the father of the child cried out and said


with tears, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!”

25 When J esus saw that the people came running together,


He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it: “Deaf and
dumb spirit, I command you, come out of him and enter
him no more!” 26 Then the spirit cried out, convulsed him
greatly, and came out of him. And he became as one dead,
so that many said, “He is dead.” 27 But Jesus took him by
the hand and lifted him up, and he arose.

28 And when He had come into the house, His disciples


asked Him privately, “Why could we not cast it out?”

29 So He said to them, “This kind can come out by nothing


but prayer and fasting.” Mark 9:14-29

Some valuable redemptive lessons to learn from


in the above scripture are as follows;
Jesus had left his disciples for a short while
when a man came with his child for emergency
spiritual help. There was a great crowd of people
around them disputing with his disciples over the
child's condition that the disciples failed to handle.
Relief came when they saw Jesus and they all ran
to him to greet him. Asking why there was a
dispute the father of the child responded to Jesus.
He explained how he had brought a child who
had a mute and deaf spirit. I like the man because
he understood clearly what the child's problem was.
He went on to explain the other effects of the
child's condition. He explained to Jesus that the
demon would throw the child to the ground and
he would foam at his mouth. Making him gnash
his teeth and become rigid. He further explained
how the disciples were unable to cast out the evil
spirits. What a shame.
This is something we need to learn.

There are different levels of problems in life. The


disciples at their level could handle some but not
every challenge.
THE problem at hand was a higher level problem that
required someone with higher level of anointing to
handle.
The demons could not leave or be casted out. They
prayed all they could. Commanded the demons as
much as they could yet nothing happened. Teaching
you and i that there are some stubborn situations in
life that needs a higher level of anointing.
J esus came and marvelled at their faithlessness.
He began to cast out the evil spirits by mentioning
their names. I hope you deliverance ministers are
following.
Before the demon left the child. It manifested it's
characteristics of throwing him down and tearing him
apart.
Jesus used the word of command to cast the demons
out. We learn the exercise of authority.
Jesus asked the father of the child how long the child
had been in the said condition. He was teaching us an
object lesson to say zeal without knowledge is
dangerous at the same time you can only manifest
based on how much knowledge you have over
something. This is how to deal with the spirit of anger.
The father explained that it started when he was a very
small child. Most of the problems visible in people's
lives today did not start today.
The man pleaded for the Lords compassion. Jesus
said without him we all can do nothing.
Jesus said to him that "if you believe, all things are
possible to everyone who believes". The man rushed
to express his belief (faith) in Jesus. He said "Lord i
believe, help my unbelief". See Hebrews 11:6.
When he rebuked the unclean spirit, he also
commanded them to enter him no more. My
observation is that most deliverance ministers would
cast out demons and not forbid them from entering
that person again. This is why they can still come back.
Privately the disciples asked him why they couldn't
cast the evil spirit out. I don't know how you have
prayed for anger to leave you but it just can't. Jesus did
not beat about the bush. He explained that the type
they were dealing with does not just go minus prayer
and fasting. Which brings us to a conclusion that as a
man or woman of God. Prayer and fasting is not
negotiable. They are simply a must spiritual gym for
you. They help you grow your spiritual stamina and
stature for you to counter all spiritual battles and reverse
all evils arrayed against your life, ministry, marriage,
family, children, Church and lives of the children and
people of God. Prayer and fasting increases the level of
anointing that breaks every yoke of anger and every
other evil foundation. It builds up an intimate
relationship with God. It kills sin power and fleshly
desires. Giving you victory over all spiritual problems.

P r a y e r i s used to intercept all evil


gatherings, plans, enchantings, incantations and
operations of darkness as a whole in spiritual warfare.
Prayer also used as the official communication with
God has power in dealing with spiritual problems .
Fasting grows your spiritual person and ability to
counter all evils especially the stubborn ones. So
to embark on the mission of pulling down evil
spirits of anger, alters of anger or indeed any
other, this can not be sidelined. Jesus Christ
prayed and fasted for 40 days and nights being led
by the Holy Ghost after His baptism in the Jordan
river.
Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to
be tempted by the devil. 2 And when He had fasted forty
days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry.
Matthews 4:1-2

All such spiritual disciplines are not only meant


for your pastor alone. They are meant for you as a
believer even if you are not in ministry. Your
spiritual growth and maturity are a plus to your
life. They will enforce your closeness with God
and in turn grant you wins over the militant and
diabolical powers of darkness.
The other thing is righteousness. The Bible says
the prayer of a righteous man availeth much. I
always love to use biblical examples to present my
points.

Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one


another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent
prayer of a righteous man avails much. James 5:16

Righteousness talks of right living in the eyes of


God. It talks of what the Lord demands everyone to
attain and live in. A blameless life of reverence and
of the fear of the Lord. Centered on shunning evil
and doing what is right.
Forgiveness is the other thing required here.
Anger informs us of unforgiviness in most
instances. Holding grudges and resentment are the
cage the spirit of anger uses against believers.
Being angry and refraining from sinning borders on
letting go. Yes releasing the anger out of your heart
and not letting the sun go down on your anger.
Meditation over the Word and living based on the
Word of God. Victory is the object in every war.
Joshua had a number of physical and spiritual
battles to fight after becoming the leader of the
people of Israel. This came right after the death of
Moses the servant of God. When Joshua the son of
Nun, a servant of Moses was confirmed to be
leader of Israel.
The Lord did not waste time in telling Joshua the
son of Nun on the secret to success on the mission.
The Lord in J oshua 1:8 said;

This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth,
but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may
observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then
you will make your way prosperous, and then you will
have good success.

Meditation and reciting the word of God is key.


Especially to meditate and doing all that is written
in the book of the Law. To be stronger in spiritual
stature to be able to pull do w n the demonic
spirit
of anger and other evil spirits. It takes meditation
on God's Word and doing what his Word says. God
is not so much for the hearers of the Word who do
not practice what the Word admonishes to practice.
Rather he is for the ones who hear the Word of God
and does what it suggests.
Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does
them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house
on the rock: 25 and the rain descended, the floods came,
and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did
not fall, for it was founded on the rock.
26 “But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and
does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his
house on the sand: 27 and the rain descended, the floods
came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it
fell. And great was its fall.” Matthews 7:24-27
Meditation on God's Word day and night leaves
no room for nurturing anger, resentment or any
such things. Because the Word of God is spirit and
life. That's what it will put in you. It's what will keep
you afloat in times of temptations. The grace to
overcome evil is in the Word. The Word carries
power that can not be quantified. It can't be
measured or estimated in anyway whatsoever. The
Word is an anti dot to every demonic, ancestral,
satanic power .
The other most important requirement is to seek
and live in the fruit of the Spirit.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering,
kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-
control. Against such there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23
One thing that happened to apostle Paul was this;
he worked on achieving the fruit of the spirit. To
walk in the spirit and righteousness. Yet there was a
problem, he realised this problem within him
despite being an apostle. The scripture says;

For what I am doing, I do not understand. For what I will


to do, that I do not practice; but what I hate, that I do.
Romans 7:15

Presented above was the cry of an anointed


apostle in need of deliverance. All through my
study of the Bible. I have realised that even the
deliverer needs deliverance. This is something to
take seriously. Had Moses been delivered from
anger. He would have successfully completed his
mission and ministry.
Above we hear the cry of apostle Paul saying
what he desires to do (the good things) he does
not do. What he desires not to do (the bad things)
he finds himself doing.
It was sincere admission to say there was a huge
force working against him. Something was
challenging his will power and so. Deliverance is
was sought-after Romans 7:24-25 says
O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this
body of death? 25 I thank God—through Jesus Christ our
Lord!....
Understanding his problem, he cried out to the
Lord for help and the Lord delivered him. Making
him complete his mission and ministry. That's why
he boldly said to the young minister Timothy;

Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to


which you were also called and have confessed the good
confession in the presence of many witnesses. 1 Timothy
6:12

And when he was old having served the Lord


faithfully as an apostle mightily used by the
Lord. In his farewell address he said;

For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and


the time of my departure is at hand. 7 I have fought the
good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 8
Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness,
which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on
that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have
loved His appearing. 2 Timothy 4:6-8

I do trust in the Lord that this chapter has helped


you whether you are a minister of God or a church
goer. None is spared from all the negative effects
of evil foundations such as the spirit of anger and
many others. So many anointed men of God have
been booted out of ministry or relevance because
of the spirit of anger and many others they never
really sought deliverance from. I decree and
declare in the name of the Lord that the spirit of
anger upon your life has been cast out as you were
reading this chapter in. Jesus mighty name Amen.

PRAYER OF ACTIVATION:
My heavenly Father i reverence you as holy. Forgive
me and my ancestors all our sins and the anger we
have used to sin against you Lord.
I admit i have a furious anger in me that makes me to
sin against you Lord. I forgive everyone who has
wronged me before. I let go every grudge and
resentment i have been keeping in my heart. Lord
Jesus Christ set me free. I renounce anger and all its
sinful characteristics. Two cannot walk together unless
they agree, as for me i disagree with the spirit of anger
in Jesus name. Teach me to live in love, yes to love
everyone especially my enemies. Thank you for your
forgiveness and deliverance as i have faith in you that
you have forgiven me.Thank you Lord, teach me to live
better than before in Jesus name Amen.

7. EPILOGUE
Anger like every other evil foundation needs to be
dealt with square. It's paramount to understand
this. Deliverance implies casting out the evil
spirits troubling ones life and destiny. It means to
take someone or coming out of an evil foundation.
It's total disconnection from evil alters. It involves
and includes genuine repentance.
It requires to do a number of renunciations and
breaking of legal covenants lawfully. It includes
and is not limited to accepting that the enemy
could be lawfully inflicting the pain, curse,
suffering, bondage, prison etc because of the door
that someone opened through sinful action and
behaviour. Above all to understand that if we take
the matter into the courts of heaven and admit
wrong doing. Mercy would be available and the
Lord would put a stop to an affliction being
experienced.
We will need the Lord in the courts of heaven to give
his righteous merciful judgement. To issue a divine
restraining order against the devil and all his
cohorts of darkness. Look for Issuing Divine
Restraining Order From The Courts of Heaven by
Dr Francis Myles. You can also look for his other
books including Battle Of Alters.
Having explained that anger is an evil spirit. It's
important to seek deliverance and receive freedom
from this evil power that is meant to make you
suffer servere loss of all that matters to you. The
Lord has anointed his pastors, apostles, prophets,
evangelists and intercessors. He has empowered
even brothers and sisters in the Lord who are not
in active ministry to handle such in the name of
Jesus Christ. Moreover, any believer can handle
these issues in the name of Jesus.
That said i need to emphasise the fact that
deliverance is not usually a day's venture.
Depending with the problem it may take a short or
a long time. Certain problems require a certain
level of anointing while other problems everyone
can handle. Dealing with the evil foundation of
anger is a must because it can cost you your
salvation. When certain people are angry they can
kill a person and in turn kill themselves. Imagine
this kind of tragedy. I had a relative in Kasama who
killed his wife and killed himself leaving the
children without father and mother.
It's possible to break free from anger like it is to
break from every evil spirit, curse, foundation
and ancestry because scripture says;

Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are
possible to him who believes.” Mark 9:23

But He said, “The things which are impossible with men


are possible with God.” Luke 18:27

From scripture we understand that there is


nothing God can't do. He has given us his
anointing and commissioned us to destroy the
powers of darkness as he said

And He said to them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning


from heaven. 19 Behold, I give you the authority to
trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power
of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
Luke 10:18-19
I don't know what you make of the reading in the
above scripture. This is what the Lord has told me.
The above scripture is the word of God spoken by
our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ. This is
something amazing. To receive power and
authority to trample on serpents and scorpions. It
means everlasting triumph over the kingdom of
darkness and their devastating works against the
people of God.
Evil foundation have been defeated. Over 2023
years ago on the cross of calvary the Lord came
through for us his children. He beat satan pants
down and made him a public spectacle. The Bible
gives an account of our freedom when J esus was
about to give up His Ghost.

After this, Jesus, knowing that all things were now


accomplished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, “I
thirst!” 29 Now a vessel full of sour wine was sitting
there; and they filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on
hyssop, and put it to His mouth. 30 So when Jesus had
received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished!” And
bowing His head, He gave up His spirit. J ohn 19:28-30

Above is the most historic and powerful


redemptive event to ever occur since the fall of
Adam. See Genesis chapter 3. Victory belongs to
Jesus and he has given it to us. Through the
finished work of the cross of calvary. We have the
spirit of anger and every other evil spirit under our
feet. It means that what you have under your feet is
definitely under your control.
Trusting and believing the Lord that he has set
you free from anger and indeed any other
foundational problem. I prophecy to you in the
name of the Lord Jesus Christ saying you will
finish well like apostle Paul. What stopped others
in your family will never stop you. The type of
records no one has ever broken in your family
will be broken by you.
I urge you to pray the prayers of activation and
await to testify of the deliverance power found
in the name of Jesus Christ and in His blood.
Having overcome the devil and his cohorts as
scripture says;

And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by


the word of their testimony,... Rev 12:11a

Let love lead at all times and remember to forgive


even before you are offended. Pray to God to give
you temperance and the grace to hold your peace.
Seeking not to win conversations which are not
worth it. Giving no room to the devil to function
against your life. May God richly bless you and i
await to hear your testimony in this regard. God
bless you and keep you in every way in Jesus
Christ name Amen.
PRAYER OF ACTIVATION:

me and my ancestors all our sins and the anger we
