  • Life is too short to hold on to pain and past hurts. Have you been holding on to an offense that you need to let go of today? Let Joel show you how to turn your hurt over to God, and let Him and be your vindicator. It’s human nature to want to make your wrongs right, but God wants you to bless your enemies.
    Blessing your enemy is a test of your character. The sooner you learn to bless your enemies and be good to people that have not been good to you, the more room you give God to work in your life.
    This is Message #732 “Bless Your Enemies“ by Joel Osteen. For more inspirational messages, visit www.JoelOsteen...

      The first time I've ever prayed for my enemy was in 4th grade to my teacher. She was friends with my friend's mom and every time I was talking to my friend I would be called out and not her. Each semester we would have an awards ceremony and even though our grades were the same and my participation was more I was in 2nd place and my friend was 1st place. When I prayed for my teacher and my friend a prayer of blessing, it changed the way that I viewed them. Each time I saw them I would not be reminded of this unfair treatment. If I was reminded, I knew I need to keep praying for them. The 2nd semester I was tied with her for 1st place! When we follow God's way we are filled with true peace and joy.
      We need to stop trying to resolve conflict our own ways!! We must follow God's ways. If we trust God then we trust his Commandments.
      I am now 25 y/o and I still follow this way of praying for those I have conflict with such as my coworkers/boss, roommates, parents, etc. The first time you ever pray this way it is hard, no joke. It gets easier over time. You think that person doesn't deserve the blessings and you do! But did you forget that God is a JUST God? He will determine who is deserving of the blessings. God will also open your eyes up to whether or not you are at fault for any of the conflict. A lot of times our ego/pride blinds us from seeing who is actually at fault. When we see what is our fault we must repent for it.
      Whenever we follow God's commandments, we experience peace and joy. Our unforgiveness is what is stealing our peace and joy. The purpose of us praying for our enemies is to lessen our ego/pride daily so there is less of us and more of Him.
      Here's how to pray and ask God to bless those you have tension with/are jealous of/hate:
      --Ask God for strength to pray that prayer.
      --Ask God that all the blessings He would have blessed you with would be given to that particular person and it be overflowing.
      --Ask God to bless that person in their finances, health, family/relationships, work, etc. Ask God that every aspect of their life would prosper.
      --Ask God that all the things that person desires will be given to him/her even if it is disadvantageous to you
      ----Only ask God to BLESS and not curse or for God to change that person
      Each time you are reminded of that person/situation, keep praying again and again blessing over them.
      I pray that for anyone who reads this comment will give it at least a 2 week trial. it is worth it if you want to experience peace and joy in your life and to see what God will do. Even if it isn't your fault for what happened, when you pray and ask God to bless that person, know that God is fair and just and he will give the blessings to those who deserve it. When we ask God to bless those we don't get along with, we see the situation through God's perspective and no longer our own.

    Amen! This is so true. Praying to bless enemies has truly helped the most difficult circumstances. It takes the anger and sadness out of your own heart when you pray for those who have come against you. I love how Joel explains this. I am going out to my day today with love, kindness and respect in my heart. No matter what. God is so good. Thankful for this message today!

    I was praying about my enemies and wanting God's destruction upon them. Then, in desperation, I asked God what I should do (I was also scrolling through RUclips without looking down). Finally, I looked down and saw that I had clicked on this sermon titled: "Bless Your Enemies". I knew that God was reiterating something he has been working on me about. Thank God for His direction!

      It is hard because blessing our enemies is contrary to what the flesh wants. Especially when we are in contact with our enemies evey day and there is no escape. When we feel our flesh is starting to get its way, anger, frustration, self pity, we have to go back to God's word rather than act on our flesh.

      Hello to all of you good people. First thank you for sharing. I don't feel like I was am alone. I needed a new phone but in time everything was overwhelming me and I realized I wasn't being fed with Our Lord's word via Joel Osteen which I was receiving everyday. Once I found some sermons, I started downloading and listening. Boy I was fed a lot from this spiritual meal. I am back to myself. During that missing time I remembered a lot recall from our spirit but not enough. I asked Our Lord to send me his word. Ouila he did. I just came upon it via Google finding another program on financial news. That was priceless. I'm happy and feel all is going to be ok. Have a blessed day.

      Jesus Lovesme, it gets better with time when you rely on God. Go to him in prayer and ask boldly. You are a part of God just as your children are a part of you. When you approach His throne, ask of him just as your children ask of you to do things that make them happy. For their sake, do not give up trying to get better. I promise you that with much prayer, time and effort on your part, it will get better. You are strong and capable, your character is being shaped now by what you are facing. You will come out of this whole and blessed. Sending you love and hugs. I am praying for you.

  • @uzziahplays1159
    @uzziahplays1159 5 лет назад +1

    Some say, "only distance yourself from a person who is against you" (which is what the bible calls an adversary or an enemy). But I've learned over time, even though you may be willing to forgive and attempt to overcome a person with love and kindness, they will almost always continue to despise you if they hated you for no reason or for reasons like envy. The bible itself says that a person who is jealous will not be overcome with gifts. This is why despite what you do to humble yourself and show them you aren't their enemy, and you continue to strive to make amends, even when you are not completely or at all in the wrong for the things they take offence to, they will almost always continue to despise you. And because of this, you can't subject yourself to perpetual attacks or bullying, as they continue to slander, demean, or hurt you in other words. Not only is it not good for you spiritually, where it can kill of your spirit, or make you weary and doubtful of God, but you may also start to become provoked. Moving away from an enemy completely when they are not in a stance to make a truce with you, is almost completely for your own sake and to remain humble and in the stance God has commanded you to treat them which is with love. Once you've shown kindness and love and they want to continue to attack, go back and pray for them, that God blesses and favors their life.
    Then, you simply allow God to fight your battles because if you allow yourself to become provoked and fight back yourself, God may not fight your battles if you take vengenance in your own hand. And then you actually sin too by being spiteful or going "an eye for an eye" in which he can and most likely will punish you, too. That's why he tells you to pray and bless and curse not. And that's why God said vengenance is mine to reassure you that he won't allow you to suffer hurt that he knows you endure while under attack of an enemy. I've learned to not even hope that your enemy receives vengeance from God as it can be simply hoping and wishing or cursing them back. Pray sincerely that God saves your enemy. If someone is saved and you are too, which is evident in keep God's commandments after receiving the Holy Spirit by grace, they wont be your enemy and attack you anymore and God will wipe away their sins including what they've done wrong to you so they dont have to face his fiery fury or wrath. That's why we pray for them.
    Not to discourage anyone, but I've also seen where someone who you knew was an enemy got saved but still continued to show the same hositlity towards you as if they had never been transformed into a new creature as the bible says all repented, washed in both water and spirit, and thus saved would. This has troubled me because it can make people around doubt God's divine power of being able to transform deliver, and heal. But thankfully, instead of doubting God when you see they are not acting as if God's power has transformed them, I take into consider that my experience for myself is my biffest proof that Gods power is really real because I know he put new joy and an eagerness to serve him in me and I can feel that transformation myself so I don't have to base it on someone else's experience. Sadly, some people may actually pretend to be tranformed as they may never have really put it in their heart to sincerely repent. Or they could simply still be such new to faith that they need to fast and pray to "break the yolk of bondage", which are passed sins God may have forgiven them from that they are still struggling to resist the temptations for when the devil brings it to them.
    In all, whether they become another brother or sister and Jesus and attack you still, or they just remain an adversary outside tbe body of Christ, pray for them and continue to love, pray for, and bless them. If they are outside tje body of Christ, or not saved, you should be able to walk away from thrm completely and still pray for them. I always tell myself that if I ever saw that enemy on the street corner with no food, water, or shelter, I would feed them, give them to drink, and help find them shelter as Jesus commanded. But other than that, I'd stay away from them and continue to pray for them.

      I LOVE all of Joel's jokes even if I've heard them before, or even if they are repeats by him. I REALLY like it when Joel KNOWS that the joke is corny, and then tries to blame "somebody else" who told it to him - usually his brother, Paul. And if Paul is there seated, I love the roll-of-the-eyes expressions he makes like, "Oh no, Little Brother! Not another DUD!"

    Pastor Joel brings up this message consistently. Yes, this is a very hard concept to accept at first, for sure. But, as you get older, and wiser, you'll find yourself looking for this message every time you have a dispute, etc. with others. Yes, anyone can be nice to people who are good to you. If blessing enemies was easy, everyone'd be doing it. I'm gradually realizing the core of this message as I grow old and I'm so thankful to Pastor Joel, as always.

    Thank you Pastor Joel. This message came just right in time when i needed it. I have been holding onto a grudge over my friend ignoring me for a while and it has been indeed poisoning my life. Couldn't sleep at night and had no appetite. This message teaches us that we should release our grudges and bitterness to God, he'll be the judge and the vindicator and he'll handle those people that did you wrong.

      Exactly, it is so our ego/pride lessens daily. Less of us and more of Him.
      The first time I've ever prayed for my enemy was in 4th grade to my teacher. She was friends with my friend's mom and every time I was talking to my friend I would be called out and not her. Each semester we would have an awards ceremony and even though our grades were the same and my participation was more I was in 2nd place and my friend was 1st place. When I prayed for my teacher and my friend a prayer of blessing, it changed the way that I viewed them. Each time I saw them I would not be reminded of this unfair treatment. If I was reminded, I knew I need to keep praying for them. The 2nd semester I was tied with her for 1st place! When we follow God's way we are filled with true peace and joy.
      We need to stop trying to resolve conflict our own ways!! We must follow God's ways. If we trust God then we trust his Commandments.
      I am now 25 y/o and I still follow this way of praying for those I have conflict with such as my coworkers/boss, roommates, parents, etc. The first time you ever pray this way it is hard, no joke. It gets easier over time. You think that person doesn't deserve the blessings and you do! But did you forget that God is a JUST God? He will determine who is deserving of the blessings. God will also open your eyes up to whether or not you are at fault for any of the conflict. A lot of times our ego/pride blinds us from seeing who is actually at fault. When we see what is our fault we must repent for it.
      Whenever we follow God's commandments, we experience peace and joy. Our unforgiveness is what is stealing our peace and joy. The purpose of us praying for our enemies is to lessen our ego/pride daily so there is less of us and more of Him.
      Here's how to pray and ask God to bless those you have tension with/are jealous of/hate:
      --Ask God for strength to pray that prayer.
      --Ask God that all the blessings He would have blessed you with would be given to that particular person and it be overflowing.
      --Ask God to bless that person in their finances, health, family/relationships, work, etc. Ask God that every aspect of their life would prosper.
      --Ask God that all the things that person desires will be given to him/her even if it is disadvantageous to you
      ----Only ask God to BLESS and not curse or for God to change that person
      Each time you are reminded of that person/situation, keep praying again and again blessing over them.
      I pray that for anyone who reads this comment will give it at least a 2 week trial. it is worth it if you want to experience peace and joy in your life and to see what God will do. Even if it isn't your fault for what happened, when you pray and ask God to bless that person, know that God is fair and just and he will give the blessings to those who deserve it. When we ask God to bless those we don't get along with, we see the situation through God's perspective and no longer our own.

    This used to be an area I struggled in. But as I grow in Christ and practice the biblical principles, blessing those who have hurt me becomes easier. When I have a heart of humility and remember that Jesus forgives me daily, I can put blessing my enemies into motion quicker. I also remind myself that I have done thing knowingly and unknowingly to people and I hope that they extend grace to me and overlook my bad days when I am not so loving due to stressors, pride, anger, and revenge!

One continued to back stab me and spread false rumors about me I wasn't even able to face the world ! I did my deed but i have now washed my hands off them. I am sure god has told us to stay away from the devil. Well these people my abusers ,I was good to , continue to hurt me. I see no reason to be nice to them It hurts me more and they r toxic for me. I d rather be alone than be around them. I have let them be and movin on. I got to make my life after all the tortures. Abuse leads to breakdowns and loss of finances and health !
