Prayer Out Loud
Father, You have told us in Your word to take every thought captive into the obedience of Christ (2 Corinthians 10:5). Therefore, I take this negative thought that is tied to (Anger) that I am feeling into the obedience of Christ. I look to Him as the ultimate example of how I should behave. There is no room for the negativity of (Anger) in my mind, body, or atmosphere. The Word has spoken against it, and it has to leave. I command this in the Name of Jesus.
