Men, the enemy is real, and the battle is here. You won’t win it by staying at home, isolating yourself, or making excuses. You need to be in the church, shoulder to shoulder with a band of brothers. Open God’s Word, and let it arm you for the fight. If you don’t understand it, find an older brother to walk with you. Quit waiting. Get on your knees

Paul doesn’t view righteous anger as against God’s design. As Paul says, “Be angry and do not sin” (Eph. 4:26). Not all anger is sin, though anger can turn sinful.

After God examines King David (vv. 1-18), the psalm speaks of God directing anger against wickedness (vv. 19-22).
A pastor friend used to say, “A whole Bible makes a whole Christian.” His point was that we need all the Scriptures and can’t rip out one command and make it our banner verse, neglecting all others.
