If your enemy is hungry, feed him..

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 2 minutes
Hello people of God!Today God has laid on my heart to emphasize a principle from His word that I believe is very vital in the days in which we live. This principle is recorded in the book of Proverbs 16:7
“When a man’s ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with Him”.
This principle demands that we do our own part, so that God can do His own part. Our part is to please God in all our ways and manners. Your obedience has to be in place before God can deal with any disobedience from your enemy’s side. This is why the Bible teaches that God is
  “…in readiness to avenge all disobedience, when your obedience shall be fulfilled” (2Cor. 10:6).
When you do your part, God is the one that will cause your enemies to be at peace with you. He is the one that will avenge all disobedience. For example we are commanded by the Lord to love our enemies, pray for those who persecute us and bless those who curse us (Mathew 5:43-45; Luke 6: 27-28).If you obey this commandment, your ways will be pleasing to the Lord. This is how you will God the permission to work on your behalf and cause your enemies to be at peace with you. God’s word for you today is this: If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty give him refreshing drinks; pray for him and do something good for him. You won’t have to wait long before God will surprise you. I encourage strongly to meditate on Roman 12: 17-20 today. As you do, may God bless you and cause your enemies to be at peace with you from this day on.See you tomorrow, Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

    Dear friends, God once again delights to tell us to serve Him with gladness. Jesus once told His disciples: «Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven» (Luke, 10:20).If your name has been written in the Book of Life, if you are a child of God, then you are also a co-heir of Christ. And it is more than enough reason to motivate any of us to rejoice and thank God for every day of our lives.

    After Jesus left the earth and ascended to heaven, He commissioned us to be His ambassadors or the sent ones (His representatives) on the earth. So we must understand and receive a profound revelation concerning the spiritual authority and power that we have in Christ. The Bible says that Christ made us kings and priests in order that we can reign on earth for Him. It is God, our heavenly Father desires that we all to be busy about His business. His business is to reconcile people with Him. God desires to do the work of reconciliation through us – «we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God». He wants us to declare the word of reconciliation. « God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation » (2 Corinthians, 5:19).
