Angry at God

Teaching Notes

Human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires.

James 1:20

What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don’t they come from your desires that battle within you? You desire but do not have, so you kill. You covet but you cannot get what you want, so you quarrel and fight. You do not have because you do not ask God.

James 4:1-2

How to know if you are mad at God:

  1. You stop talking to God. 

  2. You stop talking about God. 

  3. You give up on God. 

Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from the entrance. So she came running to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one Jesus loved, and said, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don’t know where they have put him!”

John 20:1-2

So Peter and the other disciple started for the tomb. Both were running, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first.

John 20:3-4

Finally the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went inside.

John 20:8

Then the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” As soon as Simon Peter heard him say, “It is the Lord,” he wrapped his outer garment around him (for he had taken it off) and jumped into the water.

John 21:7

Peter turned and saw that the disciple whom Jesus loved was following them.

John 21:20

Jesus answered, “If I want him to remain alive until I return, what is that to you? You must follow me.”

John 21:22

Comparing ourselves to others only leaves us angry at them… and at God.

Count your blessings.

Stay in your lane. 

What is that to you?

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Hebrews12:1-2
