TOPIC: THE DAY THE POPE GOT ANGRY! WATCH UNCONTROLLED ANGER THIS YEAR!
BASIC SCRIPTURE: Prayers and Declarations May 21st 2025
The Pontiff of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis, is known for his calmness and accommodating nature. In February 2016, while visiting Mexico, something unusual happened. The man of God lost his temper. Video footage showed that while the Pope was greeting a crowd of worshippers and admirers in Morella, Mexico, a devotee grabbed him by his cassock and wouldn’t let him go. The person pulled so hard that the pontiff lost his balance and fell into a wheelchairbound man. Aides and security men stopped the Pope from falling to the ground. After he returned to an upright position, his face turned angry. He looked at the person, raised his voice and said twice in Spanish, “Don’t be selfish.” The Pope thereafter made a surprise move; he kissed the fellow on the head!2 In this year 2025, WATCH YOUR TEMPER! This brings to mind what happened many years ago. A man was watching a world cup match on television. His wife, who didn’t have any interest in football, changed the channel to another programme. In A Fit Of Anger, The Man Threw His Wife Down Many Floors From The Storey Building Where They Lived. The Wife Died! If you cannot control yourself in the face of provocation, then you need to take lessons from the Pontiff (the Pope). In the face of provocation, the Pope after expressing his anger and disappointment, quickly kissed the man on the head. Modern psychologists view anger as a primary, natural and mature emotion experienced at times by virtually all humans and it has a functional value for survival. They say anger can mobilize psychological resources for corrective action. What they kick against is uncontrolled anger! And that is exactly what the Bible says. Anger is allowed but sin that comes as a result of anger is an enemy of testimonies this year! Today’s scripture says,”Be ye angry, and sin not: Let not the sun go down upon your wrath” (verse 26). Control your anger! Never, never allow anger control you!ANGER IS A TESTIMONY BLOCKER! Avoid it! Shalom! (Some of our account details are changing! Daily Manna ODM 21 May 2025
