Grace and Peace 📖🙏🙌🫶
Bible Scripture Proverbs 16:32 (KJV):

“He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.”

Reflection:
This proverb reveals a powerful truth:
Self-control is a greater victory than any outward accomplishment.

In a world that celebrates strength, dominance, and success, God honors the person who can govern their emotions, restrain their anger, and master their responses.
   •   Anyone can react, but it takes strength to stay calm.
   •   Anyone can fight outward battles, but it takes discipline to conquer the battles within.
   •   Anyone can win a city, but only the spiritually mature can win over their own spirit.

This scripture teaches that true might is not about power, force, or influence
It’s about self-mastery, patience, and spiritual maturity.

When you are slow to anger, you are not weak; you are stronger than the mighty.
When you can rule your spirit, you walk in kingdom authority, emotional stability, and God-empowered wisdom.

Prayer:
Father God,
Help me to rule my spirit with your strength. Give me self-control, patience, and wisdom.
When anger rises, calm my heart. When frustration comes, steady my mind.

Teach me to respond with grace instead of reaction, with peace instead of rage, and with wisdom instead of impulse.
Make me strong not in my own power, but in the power of your spirit.

Lord, let my character reflect you. Help me to master my emotions, guard my tongue, and walk in your peace. In the mighty name of Jesus I pray,Amen.
