”When a man’s ways please the Lord. He makes even his enemies, be at peace with him”.
My dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the Name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Today’s word of God for you is taken from the book of Proverbs 16:7, ”When a man’s ways please the Lord. He makes even his enemies, be at peace with him”.
My dear children of God, it is said in the verse that God would make even your enemies be at peace with you when your ways please the Lord. Which means God will make your enemies become your friends. And when your enemies become your friend then there will be no one to harm you. There is a way told in the Bible, as to how you can make your enemies become your friends. The Bible says, your ways need to please the Lord. When your life is pleasing unto the Lord then it is the responsibility of God to not allow any enemies in your life. And in case you have enemies then God will handle them. God will deal with them, God will make them friendly toward you.
As proof, we can read in the Bible, about a man called Jacob. He was a man longing for anointing. God also loved him much. He was a hard worker. He was a man pleasing unto God. In this circumstance, his own uncle, Laban with a large group of people was on his way to attack Jacob who was traveling to Canaan the land of his fathers. Jacob served his uncle for nearly 20 years, and now he wanted to return to his homeland. But his uncle Laban, planned to trouble him and his sons. He wanted to grab all the wealth and possession; Jacob was taking along with him. Laban did not have the heart to let go of him peacefully instead he wanted to cause confusion and chaos to Jacob. Laban was chasing his nephew Jacob who had served him with much fear and was faithful to him all these years. He chased Jacob with a plan to harm him. But knowing the mind of Laban, God, the previous night met Laban and warned him not to hurt Jacob in any way. God instructed Laban to make a peaceful covenant with Jacob and not to trouble him or cause confusion.
God spoke to Laban directly and warned him not to attack Jacob. Laban made a peaceful covenant with Jacob and reconciled with him and continued a friendly relationship. If God did not intervene then Laban would have harmed Jacob. He blamed Jacob had earned much by his cunningness and so he wanted to take back all the hard-earned possessions from Jacob. He was jealous of Jacob because he became a very rich man. So, we see that God himself intervened and spoke to Laban in order to avoid further controversy.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, so now looking at our situation, we might have some enemies in our workplace. And sometimes Satan himself would have caused certain cunning plans against you to spoil your life. And we further see how Satan through some people begins to do black magic and witchcraft and sorcery, against your family or your children and cause trouble to you. We need to put a full stop to all this evil practice. If you should avoid being troubled through witchcraft, sorcery, and black magic by your enemies then you should learn to lead a life pleasing unto God. Only then you will be able to lead a quiet and undisturbed life.
My dear children How do we please God? Accepting the gift of salvation, believing in Him that God will fulfill the promises He makes, fearing Him, and obeying His commandment also when your good deeds and your ways of lifestyle are pleasing unto God, then all your enemies will become at peace with you and in case you are under pressure because of witchcraft, and sorcery. Then I pray in the name of Jesus all such evil things cast upon you, will be nullified. So, the only decision we need to make is to do that which is pleasing in his sight. Make a decision that you will live a life that is acceptable to God.
Prayer: Dear Lord, thank you for speaking to us through the verse “When a man’s ways please the Lord. He makes even his enemies, be at peace with him. Dear Lord, you have spoken to my children through a very good life-giving word. We thank You because You intervened in the life of my children to tell them how they ought to live a life pleasing unto you. You said that when our ways please the Lord then even our enemies will be at peace with us. May God enable all those reading this message to apply your word in their life so that that they may live in peace and harmony. I bless my children that they may live happily without the interference of their enemies.
In Jesus Name we pray.
Amen.
