Who are your enemies? 

They are anyone who disrupts that inner peace that dwells within you. In the Bible it says if you love someone and they love you back, what reward is there in that? It goes on to say to love your enemies and by doing so you will reap hot coals on their head.

Love can conquer all, even your enemies. Love can also help someone to recognize the emptiness and loneliness that dwells within them. Anyone that loves their enemies will benefit greatly from this. They will be able to control their emotions to the point where one's enemies cannot harm them. Why engage in war with another, why not love them and keep that inner peace that we all so desire?

'When Your Enemies Surround You, Seek God For Protection'

'Everyday we face our enemies, some may invade our thoughts and cause us to make bad choices. Others may come in the form of what people do that affect us emotionally. Then there are those things that seem to go wrong for us. We have a choice to make when these things invade us and try to cause us unrest, or disrupt the calmness that we try to keep within us.

When we are attacked by our enemies, we can make a choice whether to react back in a hostile way, let it cause us emotional pain or throw our thought process out of whack. We can fight back by turning our enemies over to God and seeking His protection from them. Don't let your enemies get the best of you, the faster you fight them, the less chance that they can get a foothold on you and make things worse. 

What are some ways that you use to fight back?'

Sheltered in the Arms of God

Humility feeds the soul and pride feeds the flesh. The flesh is corrupt and it will always be corrupt. That is why God allowed death, so that we don't live in sin forever. God originally created us as a living soul to live forever. But when Adam and Eve sinned, they brought death with them.

Thank God for Jesus Christ because He will prepare us and lead us back to God (if we let Him) to live forever. Once this flesh dies, our soul will be set free from this corrupt flesh body. We need to overcome the flesh and practice humility. God Bless You

Give Up Your Old Way of Life - Don't Wait Until It's Too Late

Ephesians 4:17-19, "In particular, I want to urge you in the name of the Lord, not to go on living the aimless kind of life that pagans live. Intellectually they are in the dark, and they are estranged from the life of God, without knowledge because they have shut their hearts to it. Their sense of right and wrong once dulled, they have abandoned themselves to sexuality and eagerly pursue a career of indecency of every kind."

Does this look like the path that many in the United States and England has taken? Does it surprise you as to why these two nations are in such terrible shape? It's amazing as to how much patience God has, but if you look, you can see how He has been withdrawing His blessings and we are becoming a mockery to the other nations of the world.

The economy is in the dumps, the governments are lacking any kind of good leaders, violence is rampant and growing at a rapid pace, people are not respecting the law and so on.

You can avoid all this by living the life that God wants us to. Who in this world can possibly protect you? or help you with your needs? God can where man cannot. There is no one more powerful than God or anyone that you can truly trust. You can find all this out by seeking the Truth. Jesus is the way back to God, He is truth and life. All it takes is your desire to do what it says in the next set of scriptures.

Ephesians 4:22-24, "You must give up your old way of life; you must put aside your old self, which gets corrupted by following illusory desires. Your mind must be renewed by a spiritual revolution so that you can put on the new self that has been created in God's way, in the goodness and holiness of the Truth."

Do You Find Yourself Worrying? or Fear the Unknown? - Does the News Scare You?

Jeremiah 17: 7-8, 'A blessing on the man who puts his trust in God, with God for his hope. He is like a tree by the waterside that thrusts its roots to the stream: when the heat comes it feels no alarm, its foliage stays green; it has no worries in a year of drought, and never ceases to bear fruit.'

When trouble comes your way, or a hardship, or maybe things are looking gloom, do you start to worry, or does fear set in? There really is no need to experience these negative emotions if you put your trust in God. Your thoughts are the cause of your fear and/or worries. Have faith in God and let your thoughts be positive ones so that you can keep moving forward and be happy.

No sense in making up the unknown because all you do is drive yourself downward. These negative thoughts and emotions are the driving force behind depression, despair and desperation. This darkness can disrupt your life and it can also affect the ones you love as well and not to mention others that may be around you.

Next time, think positive and put your trust, hope and faith in God. He wants to trade with you, you give Him your troubles and He will give you happiness and true freedom from the burdens of this world.

Hebrews 8: 10-12, "God said: 'I will put my laws into their minds and write them on their hearts. Then I will be their God and they shall be my people. There will be no further need for neighbor to try to teach neighbor, or brother to say to brother 'Learn to know the Lord'. No, they will all know me, the least no less than the greatest, since I will forgive their iniquities and never call their sins to mind.' "

This is the new covenant which was created through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ so our sins may be forgiven and not just covered up.

Everyone knows the difference between right and wrong, either their heart or conscience will tell them. We have many choices to make on a daily basis. These choices include what we think about, how we behave and how we treat others.

Even though our thoughts may seem private to us, they will also be laid out on judgment day just as the things we did will be. It's important for us to think of positive things, to behave as God would like us to and to treat others with love, kindness and care.

Let's just try and live in Peace with one another and "Love One Another" as God and Jesus speak about.

Hebrews 3: 12, "Take care, brothers, that there is not in any one of your community a wicked mind, so unbelieving as to turn away from the living God."

The author of Hebrews (believed to be Paul), told this to the people at that time as a warning of what will happen to those that reject or turn away from God. The author was referring to what God had said to the Hebrews after the exodus as it is written in Psalm 95: 10-11, 'For forty years that generation repelled me, until I said: How unreliable these people who refuse to grasp my ways! And so, in anger, I swore that not one would reach the place of rest I had for them.'

There isn't anything that can be added to that, God speaks very clearly about what happens to man that refuses to accept Him and His ways. It isn't that He is forcing us to, He is trying to help us from destroying ourselves. We lead our own selves to our fate, but if we choose to accept God and love Him as He loves us, we will be saved from eternal damnation.

We are living in the best time, we have Jesus to help lead us back to God. The people that lived before Christ didn't have the opportunity that we have. What a beautiful gift God gave us, a way out of our own darkness, a way to know truth, a way to receive the Holy Spirit forever, a way back to God and be in union with Him forever right here and now!

So, why live the worldly life that is so short and can only bring death? Jesus is the way to eternal life, joy, happiness, peace and total freedom from the bondages of this passing world. God gave us free will to choose, so, what's it going to be?

Romans 12: 1-2, "Think of God's mercy, my brothers, and worship Him, I beg you, in a way that is worthy of thinking beings, by offering your living bodies as a holy sacrifice, truly pleasing to God. Do not model yourselves on the behavior of the world around you, but let your behavior change, modelled by your new mind. This is the only way to discover the will of God and know what is good, what it is that God wants, what is the perfect thing to do."

Romans 11: 34-36, "Who could ever know the mind of the Lord? Who could ever be His counsellor? Who could ever give Him anything or lend Him anything? All that exists comes from Him; all is by Him and for Him. To Him be glory for ever! Amen

There is only one thing that I can think of that we can give God, and that is our love. By serving Him, being righteous in His eyes and loving one another. God may own everything, after all, He created it, but He did gave us free will to choose to love Him or not. God is willing to share so much of what He has with us and all we have to do is love Him.

He can give us peace, joy, happiness, true freedom and everlasting eternal life if only we would love Him. It is difficult to overcome our corrupt, carnal mind and body, but God gave us a way out, someone to help us, He sent His blessed Son, Jesus Christ. Jesus can lead us back to God, to receive the Holy Spirit forever and be in union with God our Father.

Jesus can help us to overcome the things that darken our minds, hearts and souls and bring us into the light. He will teach us how to change our thought process, and modify our behavior so that we can be purified and enjoy a loving and everlasting relationship with God.

Forget the worldly things that only bring temporary happiness and receive everlasting joy, happiness, peace and true freedom that can only come from God.

Luke 11:17, "Every kingdom divided against itself is heading for ruin, and a household divided against itself collapses."

Here we have a country that has been consistently being divided instead of working together. Whether it is the party system in politics, or race, or religion or any matter that has opposing sides that can't work together.

When you have a family and the parents get a divorce, it divides the family and causes devastating affects to each member of the family. There is a loss of family structure, security, stability and a certain relationship that they had together.

When people can't work together, it causes a division between them. Nothing positive can then be accomplished because of the resentments, anger, hatred or other negativity that has risen from people's pride. This is typical human nature. Corrupt as our human nature may be, without the guidance of God in our lives and our country, this will always be. We will continue to see families, communities and our nation fall to ruins.
