4. Overcoming Miserable Moods through Preparation, Recognizing Opportunity, Timing, Patience & God
Overcoming Miserable Angry Moods through Preparation, Recognizing Opportunities, Timing, Patience, and God:
Some things seem to happen by sheer alignment. You are in the right place, at the right time, with the right mindset, and the right words to maximize that moment. Some things you encounter because the momentum of what you are working on has been meditated on, pre-aligned, wrestled with in the spirit. The outward manifestation of your focus shows in your actions...your sheer resolve.
Reflecting on an account in biblical passages (Genesis 32:22-33) there was an encounter discussed between Jacob and an angel. The angel told Jacob, let me go for the morning is coming after - wrestling with him all night. Jacob told the Angel "I am not going to let you go till you bless me". This statement is particularly insteresting because here we see into Jacobs psyche. We see his core will, determination, even soul(mind, will, and emotions). Jacob already knew within himself what he desired from God. He fought from another place within himself. A place that did not originate from the moment he met the Angel. He determined before hand that he wanted the blessing of God and when the opportunity came he would take it.
We also sometimes choose to do nothing. Paul wanted to go to Asia but the spirit told him not too go. It's not that Paul wasn't able. He wasn't lead.
Acts 16:6-7Amplified Bible (AMP)
6 Now they passed through the territory of Phrygia and Galatia, after being forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in [the west coast province of] Asia [Minor]; 7 and after they came to Mysia, they tried to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus did not permit them;
We are fully equipped by God but he has not released us to that thing we desire from him. God can direct us to do nothing because his spirit sees things we do not and so inclines us to act accordingly. There have been times when I have prayed and wanted to act and I know it was the right thing to do but it didnt happen. Favor, opportunity, insight was not available to me nor did it come to do the thing. Following the direction of God is important in our Christian walk. I have observed that sometimes, the level of insight, knowledge, and wisdom grows so rich I seem to see everyone helped around me but my problem still persists. Why? Only because God is in control. If he says not yet. It's not yet. If he says yes it's time, then it is yes, it's time. Patience is a funny thing. Nobody wants it but we all are greeted by it and it's associates called longsuffering, forbearance, and temperance as we seek the clarity of why certain things aren't working like we thought.
James 1:4New Living Translation (NLT)
4 So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing.
From these thoughts I conclude that we are only as powerful as God makes us, as influential as he makes us, as effective as he makes us. We learn to trust his leading as he works on our souls conditioning us for greater works. We minister but we also wait for God to appear in our own lives as we see him move in the lives of others.
Here are a few scripture passages I will close with that speak to this:
Philippians 1:6Amplified Bible (AMP)
6 I am convinced and confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will [continue to] perfect and complete it until the day of Christ Jesus [the time of His return].
Psalm 37:7-9New Living Translation (NLT)
7 Be still in the presence of the Lord,
and wait patiently for him to act.
Don’t worry about evil people who prosper
or fret about their wicked schemes.
8 Stop being angry!
Turn from your rage!
Do not lose your temper--
it only leads to harm.
9 For the wicked will be destroyed,
but those who trust in the Lordwill possess the land.
Romans 8:28King James Version (KJV)
28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
Your time of blessing will come. Do your best works while you are waiting.
Psalm 37:3New Living Translation (NLT)
3 Trust in the Lord and do good.
Then you will live safely in the land and prosper.
