for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
James 1:20 NKJV
James taught believers to live in the fruit of the Spirit: quick to hear, slow to speak, and slow to wrath. Then he affirms that the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
When we function under the influence of anger, pride, being self-centred, and judgment, we do not produce the love of God, and it does not reflect God's nature.
As His children, we need to cultivate God's nature that is in us, harnessing our minds to give ear, to understand the whole picture.
We are to give a chance for the person to express themselves and then speak with the wisdom of God into the situation.
We are to produce the righteousness of God that is within us; we take time to hear in the light of God's nature; we speak the purposes of God for the situation to liberate them in the truth.
The anger is important to be directed to the right place. Not against the person but towards the evil that is tricking them. When we are angry towards sin and the plot of the enemy, we have kept ourselves well-guarded.
This produced the righteousness of God. Each one will not be condemned but encouraged to guard oneself better from the devices of the enemy.
The righteousness of God restores a person to His image and likeness. So that they can walk in the power that God has placed in them.
Therefore, let us be quick to hear what the Holy Spirit is saying, speak to bring understanding to address the real issues, and direct the anger towards satan and his works.
Live in the blessings,
Ps Ambrose
