CONVERT YOUR ANGER INTO VICTORIOUS POWER BY THE HOLY SPIRIT
By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi
John 11:38-39 NKJV” Then Jesus, again groaning in Himself, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay against it. Jesus said, "Take away the stone."

The Greek word that is translated "groaning" is the word
‘Embrimaomai’ which
means - to snort with anger;sigh with chagrin; to have indignation
on or to blame .It also means to straightly charge or murmur against.
These
adverbs expressed Jesus’ state of mind as he confronted the powers that
held
Lazarus bound in the grave and that's the same way he feels about your
situation . Faith working by love for God is all that is needed for miracles to take place. Attributing a misfortune to God;s punishment closes the door on faith for the miraculous. It is a demonstration of doubt .Our unbelief gives Satan the advantage over us and this was why Jesus groaned
The bible also speaks of groaning in the Holy Ghost which also means to groan while praying inaudibly by the Holy Spirit. There are moments when you could be overwhelmed by crisis or had an inexplicable spiritual encounter like the case of a complicated dream or series of catastrophic events and just could not find the right words to pray:this is described in Rom 8:26-27” And the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. For example, we don't know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words”.

Under such circumstances praying in the Holy Ghost is an added advantage
for the born again Christian. The Holy Ghost translates the anger you have
about the situation in to an ecstatic outburst of faith- filled inaudible prayer ;
it has the capacity to raise the dead like in the case of Lazarus. If you
noticed Jesus’ prayer at the graveside: John
11:41-42 NKJV "Father, I thank You that You have heard Me” no record was
made about His prayer for Lazarus, He started with thanksgiving haven groaned
in the spirit. Death had no option but to let Lazarus free. Those who groan often in
the Spirit don’t need to pray lengthy prayers for the miraculous to take place.
Whenever we groan in the spirit, our faith is charged up like you
would
charge a battery and when fully charged, miracles are inevitable. While
groaning, our spirit is on full alert to receive valuable information
for breakthrough while the Holy Ghost
dismantles the forces of darkness on our behalf.This is one of the
benefits of being baptized in the Holy Ghost(Acts.1:8,Acts2:4,Luke11:13)
Though
the act of groaning has being
abused by some religious folks through audible irritating noise during
prayer meetings contrary to what the
bible teaches , we shouldn’t allow the activities of a misguided few
deprive us
of this life -changing experience in the Holy Ghost. It is your secret
weapon to
unprecedented increase and influence as the scriptures says in Jude 1:20
AMP “But
you, beloved, build yourselves up [founded] on your most holy faith
[make
progress, rise like an edifice higher and higher], praying in the Holy
Spirit;” We should asked to be filled with the Holy Spirit and power to
declare God's righteous counsel (Acts 1:8, Luke 11:13, Acts 2:4).
As you receive Jesus Christ as lord and saviour and read this now,
receive power to overcome stubborn oppositions in Jesus name.
