OneWordStudy+FollowThe Bible Has a Word for Being Angry at God Most believers were taught to suppress this feeling. Anger feels dangerous. Disrespectful. But the Hebrew word za‘aq appears in raw prayers. It means to cry out in protest. These cries are not corrected in Scripture. They are recorded. God never asks His people to sanitize their emotions. He invites honesty before obedience. If you’ve swallowed anger for years, that silence may hurt your faith more than truth ever would. The Bible does not fear your anger. It gives it language. #AngerAtGod #HebrewBible #BiblicalPrayer #FaithStruggles #ChristianHonesty172Share
How Are You Feeling+FollowTo anyone who feels angry—and scared of that anger I wasn’t afraid of God leaving. I was afraid of what I might say if I were honest. Then I read the Psalms of David more carefully. Some of them don’t ask politely. They accuse. They demand answers. In Hebrew poetry, these are not lapses—they’re intentional forms of prayer. Anger, in Scripture, isn’t faith breaking apart. It’s faith refusing to go silent. If anger is sitting heavy in you today, you don’t need to hide it. The Psalms suggest God would rather hear your protest than your performance. #ChristianLament #Psalms #AngerInFaith #BiblicalPrayer #EmotionalTruth60Share
