4 Horseman of a Christians Apocalypse Pt1: Bitterness

Revelation 6:1–2

Jonah 3 & 4

How to Make Sure You Have the Right Shoes On

1- Check the Heart. The white horse and crowned rider looks righteous—but anything that hardens your heart to your neighbor, and doesn’t open your heart to your neighbor, is riding against the Kingdom of God. The reason we like bitterness is it makes us feel like we’re right, even when we're wrong… because bitterness is fake purity and false righteousness.

2- Check Your Posture. It’s hard to walk in grace while dragging resentment, and no matter how much you try to dress up unresolved pain as discernment, to a mature person they see a heart of stone. You might think holding on protects you, but it actually gets you numb to what bitterness is doing… slowly unmasking the reason it's so powerful: getting you bitter at God. Jonah's story ends not with just him bitter at Nineveh, but actually the root of the bitterness is toward a God who doesn't do things how he wanted them done.

3- Check It in the Light. If bitterness is keeping you in the dark… alone and in isolation with your thoughts… it's slowly draining you of the healing power of letting things go and allowing God to redeem and restore. I am not worried about the outside; I’m worried about my inside… and no one has power over that space that I first did not hand that power to. I am not God, and I am not the healer… and in that place of humility, I release people to God and hope one day they find the healing they need as I pursue my own.
