God’s Word for Today – 02 Mar 2025
Matthew 5:44 KJV — But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
Reflection on God’s Word for Today – 02 Mar 2025
Many followers of Christ struggle with today’s scripture and stumble at living it daily. And it is indeed a high hurdle to scale, unless one is truly yielded to the Holy Spirit who alone can enable one. Many are still stuck in the era of “an eye for an eye” forgetting that Christ is calling people to embrace the new era of a more excellent way of living. The expectation of Jehovah as modelled by Christ is counter-cultural in the world we live, but you must know that you are not of the world, though you live in the world. So, you must live true to the culture of Jehovah’s kingdom of which you are an ambassador. Be like Christ and start to pray for those who despise you and persecute you without cause.
Pray: Holy Spirit, I am unable to do this without You, please help me to love my enemies and pray for those who persecute me. #Mok
