What’s Got You Triggered?

What triggers your anger?

This is Vince Miller.

Our text today is from James 1:20. It reads:

For the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God. —James 1:20

Everyone gets angry. Sometimes our anger produces a response resulting in an implosion or explosion. And these implosions and explosions do nothing good in us or to other people. But as much as these moments seem to “catch us by surprise,” we shouldn’t be surprised by them or their results. James is definitive in this text. Man’s anger has negative results. But the primary issue is not just the results. It’s the triggering event that elicits the anger that, in the process, produces unrighteous results. And that is what most men driven by anger fail to give attention to — the triggering event that leads to the anger. Yet the good news is that a man indwelled by the Spirit of God can redirect this process and the results.

But this requires keen spiritual awareness and a learned sensitivity to the Spirit. Because if we lower our guard even for a moment, the enemy will strike, and the emotions and injustices that trigger us most will lead us toward unrighteous responses and results. And as we all know, these responses have a tragic cost to our marriages, families, friendships, and coworkers.

Here is your call to action today:

I want you to identify what triggers your anger. What is it? Identity it. Call it out. Confess it. And then remember it, so the next time that trigger strikes, you’ll see it coming. And when it does, let the Spirit convict and give him power over that trigger so it won’t have power over you.
