Your enemies are your driving force in life, you should be happy you have them, otherwise you would just be an insignificant being without a particular purpose or motive, thus, the saying; if you don’t have anything to live for or die for, it means you have lost the quality of being called a human being. Anything that comes to you easy is either fake or somebody must have worked and sacrificed for it, we have grace because Jesus died to pay the ultimate price on the cross of calvary for our sins, so we can be saved, there is absolutely nothing good that comes easy, like the saying goes, if it seems to good to be real, look deeply because that is what it is; it is not real.
Your enemy could be hunger, when you think of how much you hate hunger, you will look for a way to feed yourself, it could be poverty, when you detest the thought of being a poor person, it will give you the strength to fight against becoming poor, if you hate where you live or your job, you will fight to change the situation.
More than 50% of people who are living a good life today, made it because of their enemies, most of them used their enemies to their advantage, the fear of not giving their enemies the satisfaction of failing and becoming a laughing stock, gave them the strength and energy to work and pull through, when their enemies sat down watching and waiting on them to fail, they kept holding steadfastly to what they believed in, and gave it all they got to make it work, till they proved their enemies wrong, and now they have their enemies to thank because without those enemies, they would have settled for the norms.
Why don’t we see the bigger enemy in our front? If we can see this other enemies that drive us to achieve good things but we don’t see the worst enemy of them all, the one who wants our body, heart, and soul, if you know what the Devil plans to do with you, you will flee from him and look for Gods guidance and protection, he is the designer of doom, and he comes only to steal, to kill and to destroy, nothing short or more than that, if he gifts you a cap and you collect it, look for where to hide and wear that because when he comes back to collect his cap, he must take it along with your head.
If you can not serve God now because you feel his ways are to narrow and difficult, when do you think you can serve him? Is it after you die? The Bible made it clear that no one gets to see God except through Jesus Christ who will redeem you soul, and give you salvation, there is no way else, your money won’t buy you salvation, your certificate or education wont buy it for you, your affluence or beauty can not buy you a place in heaven, be wise now that you have the chance, take a chance at salvation now because tomorrow might become to late, we all live by the grace of God, but once you die without repentance, there is no more grace for you, you will only account for you deeds.
May God help us to make the right choice, the Bible said, even the wicked people want good things for their children, how much more of God our creator? He wants the best for you but only on the condition that you let him to come into your life and you serve him with diligence and consistency, in truth and in spirit, and place no other God above him, and also obey the ten commandments. It was not that hard now? Was it?.
