Deuteronomy 32.35 Vengeance is Mine, and recompense; Their foot shall slip in due time; For the day of their calamity is at hand, And the things to come hasten upon them.’

The people we know as enemies not only talk behind our backs, but they post negative things about us on social media and speak failure over our lives. But, praise God no weapon formed against us shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17).

Our first response may be to return fire with fire. We may want to air their problems to the world or give them a piece of our minds, but that’s not our role. As long as we resist the urge to retaliate and continue to honor God with our lives, our enemies will live long enough to see us blessed. David told us God will prepare a table in the presence of our enemies (Psalm 23:5).

We’re not hoping that they die or experience failure in their lives. They’ll reap what they sow. But, we have an assurance that the blessing over our lives will override any negative thing they throw our way.

Let’s hold our peace and let God fight our battles.
