A contentious and angry spirit

This evil spirit can cause a quarrel or a storm to suddenly break out in a peaceful situation, or cause a quiet child to suddenly start quarreling for no reason. If it is inside a person, it will make the person irritable and angry, like a time bomb that can explode at any time. This evil spirit can cause family discord. It must be bound and commanded to leave in the name of the Lord, to go to where Jesus tells it to go, and never to come back, and not to stir up trouble in the home again.

Madon: A city in Canaan. Based on the ambiguity of the manuscripts, most scholars accept that Madon is Meron (where the alliance camped). Current scholars generally tend to believe that Meron is the site of Carnechtim, about five miles west of Tiberias and the Sea of Galilee.

Concept:

The spirit of quarreling and wrath is a dark force that has a familial trait, passed down from generation to generation, but it can also be caused by personal factors or behavioral deviations that lead to quarrels and arguments that result in violent and uncontrolled emotions or behavioral anger.

The manifestations are: pessimism, despair, depression, disappointment, anxiety, fear, grievances in life, which puts a lot of pressure on people around him and makes him suffer a lot. He is particularly good at arguing and competing, which leads to endless quarrels. Severe anger will lead to beating, scolding, insulting, controlling, threatening, cursing, etc.

Causes:

1. The external environment, gods, or people do not meet your needs according to your own ideas.

Then all the congregation of the children of Israel set out on their journey from the Wilderness of Sin, according to the commandment of the Lord, and camped in Rephidim; but there was no water for the people to drink. Therefore the people contended with Moses, and said, “Give us water, that we may drink.” So Moses said to them, “Why do you contend with me? Why do you tempt the Lord?” (Exodus 17:1-2)

Abel also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat. And the Lord respected Abel and his offering, but He did not respect Cain and his offering. And Cain was very angry, and his countenance fell. (Genesis 4:4-5)

2. You or your loved ones are treated unfairly

And the words of Esau her older son were told to Rebekah. So she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said to him, “Surely your brother Esau comforts himself concerning you by intending to kill you. Now therefore, my son, obey my voice: arise, flee to my brother Laban in Haran. And stay with him a few days, until your brother’s fury turns away, (Genesis 27:42-44)

Then Jacob was angry and rebuked Laban, and Jacob answered and said to Laban: “What is my trespass? What is my sin, that you have so hotly pursued me? Although you have searched all my things, what part of your household things have you found? Set it here before my brethren and your brethren, that they may judge between us both! (Genesis 31:36-37)

And Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter. Now his sons were with his livestock in the field; so Jacob held his peace until they came. Then Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to speak with him. And the sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard it; and the men were grieved and very angry, because he had done a disgraceful thing in Israel by lying with Jacob’s daughter, a thing which ought not to be done. (Genesis 34:5-7)

3. Openly challenge and overthrow authority figures

The sons of Eliab were Nemuel, Dathan, and Abiram. These are the Dathan and Abiram, representatives of the congregation, who contended against Moses and Aaron in the company of Korah, when they contended against the Lord; and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up together with Korah when that company died, when the fire devoured two hundred and fifty men; and they became a sign. (Numbers 26:9-10)

4. Distorted, self-centered speculation and interpretation

Now Eliab his oldest brother heard when he spoke to the men; and Eliab’s anger was aroused against David, and he said, “Why did you come down here? And with whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your pride and the insolence of your heart, for you have come down to see the battle.” And David said, “What have I done now? Is there not a cause?”(1 Samuel 17:28-29)

So not only is this trade of ours in danger of falling into disrepute, but also the temple of the great goddess Diana may be despised and her magnificence destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worship.” Now when they heard this, they were full of wrath and cried out, saying, “Great is Diana of the Ephesians!” So the whole city was filled with confusion, and rushed into the theater with one accord, having seized Gaius and Aristarchus, Macedonians, Paul’s travel companions.(Acts 19:27-29)

5. The sinful nature of jealousy, competition, pride, and contempt for others

 So the women sang as they danced, and said:“Saul has slain his thousands, And David his ten thousands.”Then Saul was very angry, and the saying displeased him; and he said, “They have ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed only thousands. Now what more can he have but the kingdom?”  So Saul eyed David from that day forward.(1 Samuel 18:7-9)

Now it was so, while there was war between the house of Saul and the house of David, that Abner was strengthening his hold on the house of Saul.And Saul had a concubine, whose name was Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah. So Ishbosheth said to Abner, “Why have you gone in to my father’s concubine?” Then Abner became very angry at the words of Ishbosheth, and said, “Am I a dog’s head that belongs to Judah? Today I show loyalty to the house of Saul your father, to his brothers, and to his friends, and have not delivered you into the hand of David; and you charge me today with a fault concerning this woman? (2 Samuel 3:6-8)

 And he made devices in Jerusalem, invented by skilful men, to be on the towers and the corners, to shoot arrows and large stones. So his fame spread far and wide, for he was marvelously helped till he became strong. But when he was strong his heart was lifted up, to his destruction, for he transgressed against the Lord his God by entering the temple of the Lord to burn incense on the altar of incense. So Azariah the priest went in after him, and with him were eighty priests of the Lord—valiant men. And they withstood King Uzziah, and said to him, “It is not for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to the Lord, but for the priests, the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense. Get out of the sanctuary, for you have trespassed! You shall have no honor from the Lord God.” Then Uzziah became furious; and he had a censer in his hand to burn incense. And while he was angry with the priests, leprosy broke out on his forehead, before the priests in the house of the Lord, beside the incense altar. (2 Chronicles 26:15-19)

But it so happened, when Sanballat heard that we were rebuilding the wall, that he was furious and very indignant, and mocked the Jews. (Nehemiah 4:1)
