I was studying the book of Psalms when I stumbled on this scripture that just struck my heart.

Psalm 6:1 – “O LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.”

The moment I saw it, my heart skipped a beat. Before I knew it, I started praying, “God abeg, no ever vex for me ooo — I go just collapse! I no get power ooo 😂😂😂”

Honestly, I don’t feel comfortable when someone I care about is angry with me — consciously or unconsciously. I lose my peace. If I apologize and things still don’t balance, I just give space, because I don’t want to hurt you or get hurt. I’ll just be praying for you from afar.

So imagine if my very existence dey vex with me. Ahhh… what will I do?!

I even read other translations just to calm my mind. The FBV says:

“Lord, please don't condemn me because you're angry with me; please don't punish me because you're angry with me!”

In all of this, I want to remind someone: the Bible is not as complex as we think. It’s super simple and practical. Like, your everyday life is inside the Bible!

Some see it as just a storybook — but this same Bible has been liberating lives before we were born.

Oya let’s talk — Have you ever felt like you were overthinking a scripture, but that same verse ended up changing your life?

Isaiah 61:1-11 NIV
[1] The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners,

[2] to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn,

[3] and provide for those who grieve in Zion— to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor.

[4] They will rebuild the ancient ruins and restore the places long devastated; they will renew the ruined cities that have been devastated for generations.

[5] Strangers will shepherd your flocks; foreigners will work your fields and vineyards.

[6] And you will be called priests of the Lord, you will be named ministers of our God. You will feed on the wealth of nations, and in their riches you will boast.

[7] Instead of your shame you will receive a double portion, and instead of disgrace you will rejoice in your inheritance. And so you will inherit a double portion in your land, and everlasting joy will be yours.

[8] “For I, the Lord, love justice; I hate robbery and wrongdoing. In my faithfulness I will reward my people and make an everlasting covenant with them.

[9] Their descendants will be known among the nations and their offspring among the peoples. All who see them will acknowledge that they are a people the Lord has blessed.”

[10] I delight greatly in the Lord; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of his righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

[11] For as the soil makes the sprout come up and a garden causes seeds to grow, so the Sovereign Lord will make righteousness and praise spring up before all nations.

The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and rel

The restoration of the mind after every experience is needed because the experience either leaves us broken or stronger.
