"The Spirit of Misery"
There are certain types of people in this world who just seem to love misery. Of course, there are those in this group who would vehemently dispute that this is true even though it is. Oh, in many instances they will not agree simply because they are and have been blind to their own emotions and actions. If and/or when you try to point out the way they act, they will inevitably end up blaming someone else, for the reason they behave that way. Many of those who are creating their own misery, refuse to see and/or realize the fact that if they would only change the way they look at certain situations, things would not seem so bad, but for one reason or another, they have trouble seeing things that way.
Now if you are someone who happens to know someone who tends to be constantly creating their own misery, then try interceeding in prayer for that person. Pray for their eyes and hearts to be opened to the truth of how they are reacting to the things in their life. Pray that their spirit learns how to be and remain calm under pressure, especially under whatever pressure they have placed on themselves. Pray that the eyes of their understanding be opened to see the real truth of what they do to themselves. Such people often end up being caught up in unpleasant situations of their own making, and as I said before, looking for someone else to blame. No, it is never of their own making as far as they are concerned, it is always the fault of someone else. Pray for them to be able to see and appreciate the blessings in their life, and that the spirit of misery becomes a thing of the past. Now may the spirit of misery stay away from your door as well, in JESUS' Most Precious and Holy Name.
AMEN
