If you want relief from enemies, one of the most unprofitable things you can do is fight them. If you fight them, they will fight you back and the enmity deepens.
But God through the prophet has said, “When a man’s ways please the LORD, he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him” – Proverbs 16:7.
The way to get relief from enemies is to live your life in a way that pleases God and God will cause your enemies to give you peace. God is in control of even our enemies and He uses them to correct flaws in our character, and when we deal with our character, there is no need for an enemy to be used to file away at the rough edges in our personality.
