Prayer For Controlling Your Anger And Temper

Omnipotent Everlasting Father, in every situation of my life, I give You full control. Your Word constantly reminds me that you care for me. My spirit is broken. I’m filled with anger. Heal me Lord. I know that through the workings of the Holy Spirit, it all works together for my good.

My heart is broken. My spirit is weak. But You, my God, make me whole. Though I may experience pain, it just serves to make me stronger.

Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice.

Guidance for Self-Reflection and Growth

Teach me, Lord, to pause and reflect before I act or speak in anger. Grant me the insight to understand the root of my frustrations and the courage to address them constructively. May Your Holy Spirit guide me in self-reflection, leading to personal growth and greater emotional maturity.

Cultivate in me a heart of patience, capable of enduring provocations without losing peace. Strengthen my resolve to practice self-control, reminding me that every test of temper is an opportunity to grow in Your grace and to witness to Your transformative power.

Heavenly Father, there are times my anger gets the better of me. Lord, I know this is not of you. And so, I pray that you grant me the peace of mind that I will not allow others to get me angry.

Fill me with your Holy Spirit that I will resist and overcome the attempts of the enemy to cause me to sin.
