Who are your enemies? They are folks who are bound by satan to do his will. 2 Timothy 2:26. Psalm 119:98 says, “You, through Your commandments, make me wiser than my enemies; for they are ever with me.”

I used to read this as the enemies are ever with me, until I was meditating on this verse. God’s commandments are ever with us when we keep them; laying them up as treasure in our hearts.

Let’s follow one commandment. Matthew 5:44 says, “But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you.” The word ‘love’ is agape ~ God’s love that never fails.

Jesus commissioned us as His ambassadors. 2 Corinthians 5:20 says, “…as though God were pleading through us…” Satan’s captives will not hear us unless His love shines through our words and actions.
