Good morning Jesus from Our Daily Manna Devotional (ODM)

Topic: Anger broke his stones!
Basic scripture: Exodus 32:1-19
Commentary: Remember that Moses had been called to Mt. Sinai to recieve the ten commandments which God wrote with his hands on two tablets of stone. While still with God on the mount, God informed Moses that the children of Isreal had gone astray and were already worshipping a golden image. Moses came down from the mount and in a fit of anger, threw down the tablets of stones and broke them. "And it to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moses' Anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables out of his hands, and brake them beneath the mount" -Exodus 32:19. Wow! Anger broke the two tablets! He cast the stones out of his hands! Was it God who offended Him? Were they not given to him by God ? Why break the stones? What will anger not cause? Anger will cost you the opportunity to make a gaint leap and move to the next level. Remember that it was this same anger that made this Moses not to make the promised Land.Anger is a testimony blocker and a breakthrough toll gate! Anger is a demon! Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal of fire with the intention of throwing it at someone else, but you are the one who gets burnt. In life, you will not be punished FOR your anger, you will be punished BY your anger! The one that angers you controls you. Don't give anyone that power! In this imperfect world, Forgive and forgo even if you find it difficult to forget! Don't break your tablets of stones(your covenant with God, your testimony, your glorious future, your dreams, your roadmap), etc, because of somebody else. Learn from Moses and move on!
Practical assignment: Is it easy to always forget? Draw out the list of those you must forgive and take practical steps towards that direction.
PRAYER POINTS:
