The power of evil is a manifestation of the anger of God. This is because evil is always present, and its natural ability is to advance. So when we say that grace predetermines the advancement of evil, we are involved with the power of hate that is present in some level where grace is not understood correctly. This means that all evil anger is a ungracious attitude in our thinking. God is the one who determines the level of evil that we are confronted. We cannot overcome evil on our own and are constantly confronted with a universe full of corruption. This is why the Psalmist addresses God as having anger towards believers. Because God is the one who decides what happens, including all the anger that is expressed to us. We live in a world that is cursed with an inability to act selflessly, and the more evil that is present, the more anger we need to resist.The force within ourselves that compels us to seek and receive grace from God is irresistible. We must understand that God's disposition towards us, which is decreeing and flows from heaven, works in our experience. We are powerless in ourselves to overcome our own corruption, but every sin and weakness can be overcome with God's grace, which is our inner power. In other words, we need God's grace to overcome our weaknesses and sinful nature. In order to have a blessed future, we must first experience grace. This grace gives us freedom from the things we don't understand about ourselves and others. We live in a world full of desires, but we don't resist our corruptions through direct confrontation. We resist our corruption through the Spirit and the word by learning how to progress. This means that we are taught a way to have a blessed future.To achieve authentic freedom, we must first surrender to grace. We inhabit a world full of yearning, but we don't battle our wicked impulses through sheer force of will. We struggle against our depravity through the Spirit and the word. That is to say, we are instructed in a way of living that allows us to experience true blessedness in the future.The love-hate relationship at the center of this conflict appears to be intensifying. The manifestation of hate appears to be becoming more pronounced, while the expression of love is sensing the strength that resides within us. It is sensing the energy in the situation flowing through us like an electric current.While some people may argue that growing stronger means amplifying the hate that exists in the world in order to argue for our cause, this is actually a negative consequence of using promises to persuade others. The problem with our vision of the world and the evil that is present in both the things we can see and the things we can't is that we don't realize that our knowledge of evil is not necessarily indicative of personal evil.I believe that God works in us in many different ways to advance His kingdom. For example, He can work through people who are in love or those who are resistant to Him. We see this in the life of David. Even though David was a man of war, God did not decree that he build the temple.David was obviously familiar with blood hatred, but at the same time, God was able to accomplish His purposes through that level of resistance. You see, after God had worked through them to accomplish His purposes, He judged others because they had taken the hatred upon themselves. This shows us that no matter who we are or what we have done, God can still work through us to achieve His goals.We sometimes mistakenly think that we can control personal evil and hatred. However, this is actually an expression of hatred against God's ways. This may not seem beneficial in the short-term, but it will actually work out for our benefit in the long run. The psalmist did this by pleading his case in his own weakness, and by using the fact that his accusers were wrong. He did not think that God was angry with him, but rather that the anger and consequences he was experiencing from his accusers and from his own sin were the power that God had given him to plead for God's unfailing love and for complete victory.Although we may make mistakes, God's love for us is always present because He is faithful and kind. This is how God feels toward His own children, and it is what we mean when we say that grace comes before anything else. We are saying that God starts this work in us and He finishes it. Whenever we face opposition, we need to remember that grace will see us through if we rely on God's goodness and kindness. So, when we say that God is angry at us, we are really only cursing ourselves.When we curse, we express our own anger. This anger was never taught to us as righteous anger. The way of blessing is a way of reasoning. This way of reasoning is a gift from God that allows us to believe that God has more than we could ask or think in our future. Therefore, we do not see sin as merely an action, but as an understanding of the power within us that we are to resist.
