Those who hate you

"Those who hate you" By Diane Webb

Psalms 69: 14—"Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters."

You have felt like this before. You have prayed this prayer in one way or another. Rest assured God will deliver you out of the mud. He will not let you sink. You will be delivered from those who hate you. You will be brought safely in from the deep waters. What a joy to know God is with you helping you fight your battles. You need not fret over them. You need not concern yourself with your enemies and those who hate you. It is hurtful to know there are those who hate you. Remember how your Lord was hated by the world he was sent to save. It hurts the most when the hate is from those you love. They do not have the power to hurt your spirit which is protected by God himself. Have heart that you belong to God. Keep your attention on God and ask him what you need to know or do in regards to your enemies and those who hate you. He will advise you and he will guide you. He will deliver you.

Dear Heavenly Father, I pray for my enemies and those who hate me. I pray they will accept Jesus as their savior and the son of God. I thank you for the many blessings you have given me. I pray today, Lord, that I will have the strength and wisdom to do your will. In Christ's name I pray, Amen.
