Spiritual Health: Let's Talk About Bitterness

Bitterness is a spirit that disturbs many believers besides being a sin. Bitterness is a mixture of disappointment, anger, and fear. 

Remember, anger graduates to bitterness if you don't deal with it accordingly. By forgiving and letting go of your own inner self and of others. In fact, Ephesians 4:26 states that, "In your anger do not sin." "Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry."

By Apostle Bigboy Kathumba
As believers, we must bear in mind that anger has a timeline; your anger shouldn't exceed 12 hours.

Furthermore, bitterness makes you bitter instead of better and eventually leads to unforgiveness. What most of us are unaware of is that bitterness blocks the breakthrough to our destiny. Before you allow bitterness to control you, here's what you need to keep in mind.

Bitterness is sin

When you deliberately fail to talk to someone you have no part in God's kingdom

Bitterness is unforgiveness fermented

The more you hold on to past hurts, the more you become "drunk" on your pain.

The devil uses anger to attack many.

God can't draw near a bitter person

To overcome bitterness, you must: forgive, stop dwelling there, and stop retelling

Bitterness blocks your physical and spiritual life; you'll stagnate physically and spiritually. It's no wonder many are worsening spiritually and physically

When you're bitter, you can't have breakthrough even in prayer

Bitterness creates space for the enemy

Bitterness is satan's altar in your life-an altar is a point of contact. Therefore, when you're about to rise financially, the enemy stands against you

This sin entangles easily similar to sins like lies and gossip

When you allow bitterness to take root in your life, you won't succeed at any time because you're limited

Bitterness is what's "eating" many up

Bitterness holds you back

It's like an acid that destroys its container; whatever you try fails
A bitter person holds grudges
