"Putting Away Hate"
It is a difficult thing to love someone who has done nothing but ridicule, agitate, and try to harm you in every way possible. There are often times when you will do all that you can for some people, only to have them do as little as they can for you in return. I have said through JESUS CHRIST that you should love your enemy, and love your neighbor as yourself, but most people will find this difficult to do. In Matthew 5:44-46, JESUS said, (44) "But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, (45) so that you may be sons of your Father Who is in Heaven. For He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. (46) For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? It is not an easy thing to do, I know, but all things are possible with JESUS CHRIST on your side.
I am mentioning this today because of all the hate I see going around these days, which is something that I do not like seeing. Those words of JESUS should not be taken lightly, as many people often do. I see people treating one another in ways that they would not treat an animal, and I just have to shake My head in shame at how My so-called children behave. Those of you who have listened to and have heard the words of JESUS CHRIST should be able to live with one another without the hate in your hearts. If nothing else, allow JESUS CHRIST to help you be the person you should be in and through Him. It is a blessing to be able to love those whom you used to hate. Besides that, you who learn to love your enemies will also shame the devil and his demons. Why? Because hate is his trademark, as love is the Lord's trademark, and blessed are you who follow JESUS, in His Loving and Most Blessed Name.
AMEN
