Angry, Yet Praying

 

May 4

ANGRY, YET PRAYING – You know that prayer is communing with God. You know that God listens to your prayers, when there is genuine prayer. But can a person be angry with God and still pray to Him? Our first human response, our natural response is to say, no. Truth and wisdom show us otherwise. The Word of God has many examples of God’s servants being angry with Him and praying to Him.  Listen to Jonah 4: 1 – 2a.  But Jonah was greatly displeased and became angry. He prayed to the LORD. When you are angry, don’t turn away from God. Stick closer to Him.

 

Father in heaven, when I am angry with You, keep me close please. Amen!

 

Read Jonah 4: 1 - 4
