Kill It!
Ephesians 4:31-32 “Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.” (NIV, emphasis added)
So, how do I get rid of bitterness? To get rid of all bitterness, we do what the Bible says in our anchor scripture. The first is Kill Bitterness With Compassion. And the second is Kill Bitterness With Forgiveness.

Pay Attention
Proverbs 4:23 “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” (NIV)

Uproot!
Hebrews 12:14-15 “Work at getting along with each other and with God… Make sure no one gets left out of God’s generosity. Keep a sharp eye out for weeds of bitter discontent. A thistle or two gone to seed can ruin a whole garden in no time.” (MSG)
We thank God for teaching us and helping us to let go of things. Over the next few days, God is going to teach us to let go of bitterness. The truth is that people are going to hurt you. People are going to say all sorts of things about you. But you must make sure that you let go of bitterness. Read the rest of this entry
Reason of Use
Hebrews 5:14 “But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.” (NKJV)

Just Believe!
John 6:29 “Jesus answered, “The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent.” (NIV, emphasis added)

Priority Heart
Proverbs 4:23 “Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life.” (NKJV, emphasis added).

Shalom, Shalom!
Romans 8:31-32 “What shall we say about such wonderful things as these? If God is for us, who can ever be against us? Since he did not spare even his own Son but gave him up for us all, won’t he also give us everything else?” (emphasis added).
