Spiritual Warfare: 'Don’t Focus on Getting Revenge'
God's Power for Our Battles — Tuesday, November 11, 2025
My friends, do not try to punish others when they wrong you, but wait for God to punish them with his anger. It is written: ‘I will punish those who do wrong; I will repay them,’ says the Lord. But you should do this: If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him a drink. Doing this will be like pouring burning coals on his head. Do not let evil defeat you, but defeat evil by doing good.
Lord, forgive me for wishing bad things to happen to my enemies. Help me to forgive others - just as You have forgiven me. Help me to learn to be kind to all those around me - even those who continually choose to treat me badly. I leave that in Your hands, Lord, and trust You to do what’s needed and best for them. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
"O God, you are my God; I earnestly search for you. My soul thirsts for you; my whole body longs for you in this parched and weary land where there is...."
