That old nature which came from Adam and Eve is frequently rebellious toward the things of God. It always wants to have its own way, instead of allowing the Holy Spirit to lead and guide you. When we seek to get even for wrongs done to us, frequent thoughts will come to the person with this nature.
The Bible tells us that vengeance is God’s, and He will repay. The person who has determined to live in righteousness and true holiness will commit his problem to the Lord and allow Him to take care of the results.
The old thoughts will still come, but you don’t need to let them lodge in your mind. God wants to help you, but He is expecting you to use the tools He has given you. One of them is the Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.
