God tells us to pray for those that despitefully use us and say all manner of evil against us. Not everyone is going to be for us, Judas was put in Jesus path to cross Him; to bring God's plan for us to pass, so be still all battles are not ours. Everything, God does in our lives, has a purpose even betrayal brings on growth. Just remember, when people come up against us, they are only a distraction; if we focus on them, just give them to God and stay focused on Him. "Romans 12:19 Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” Stay on the high road, our assignment is too great to let the enemy sidetrack us; God has already lined up the right people, to help us accomplish our mission.
When people compete, come up against us, conspire against us or try to set a trap for us, usually, the underlying factor is we have something that they want. Be it a person’s love, a job, family, peace and joy, something that they do not have and long to have so they covet what we have and try to take it from us or stop us from enjoying what we have.
Lord, when people come up against us, give us Your wisdom and strength; so we will not be distracted, but stay focused on You. Father, the Word tells us to pray for those that despitefully use us and say all manner of evil against us. So, Jesus, fill us with Your Spirit to help us accomplish this because we cannot do this on our own. Father, Your Word tells us, that in the last days times will become more difficult and people will turn to sin. Lord, we are in those times, for people have become lovers of themselves; lovers of money, proudful, heartless, and ungrateful. Lord, please intervene right now and save us from this darkness. Father, open our hearts and minds and fill us with the Holy Spirit; so we will be compelled to obey Your will, and not be a part of this world. Lord, we understand that everybody is not going to like us; so give us self-control so we do not feed into their drama, but be still and keep our eyes on You, in Jesus name Amen
