Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.James 5:16
The best way to end any arguments is if you know deep down your actions started it admit it and start the healing. How many marriages and friendships could have been saved if one person had been willing to be calm and rational and be truthful.
Fighting and conflict is not a fruit of the spirit. The temptation to do wrong, act wrong and think wrong is always there because each of us is born with a sin nature.Even after you have asked Jesus’ to be Lord of your life you will occasionally be drawn into things you know are of the devil.
Each of us have sinned and fallen short of God’s glory it says in Romans 3:23 but if we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from ALL unrighteousness it says in 1 John 1:9.The ‘flesh’ often gets in the way and tries to upstage the Holy Spirit so be on your guard and pray and read God’s word daily as a preventive measure. Don’t beat yourself up if you have hurt someone or guilted them but ask God to truly help you not do it again.
PRAYER: Lord I know it breaks your heart to see your children hurt each other with words or actions. Forgive me when I have done this and help those I hurt be able to accept forgiveness and restore the relationship. In Jesus’ name.Amen.
