I emphatically told all of My children the truth of who their enemy really is, that they are the principalities and powers of the air, meaning the devil and his demons.
I also told you who your enemy is not. I said that your enemy is not flesh and blood, meaning your enemies are neither your family, your friends, your public servants, your government officials, your neighbors nor people of differing religious practices.
When you consider people your enemy you lose every battle you fight against them because you use the arsenal of seeds of criticism, division, strife, unkind words and judgment. Those seeds will return to you. Where is the peace in that situation?
I taught through Jesus that the arsenal against people who curse you, offend you and spitefully use you is love. That was a shocking revelation at the time He spoke it and it is still a shock to those who truly want to follow His methods in the battles of life. My children want to fight flesh and blood with the arsenal of their enemy, hatred, strife and like actions, joining his side in the battle by using his methods. You can't battle with the side of good by using the methods of the side of evil and expect to win anything. It never worked since the beginning of time and it still doesn't. You will become a loser in the battles.
Heads of countries think that they win wars. They don't win. They lose their young people to death and lifelong injuries. They lose their prosperity to rebuilding what they themselves destroyed. They lose in multitudes of ways. You can't be a winner when you lose in some ways.
It's the same way with your daily battles in life. You must use My methods and My weapons which are intercessory prayers, love, kindness, forgiveness and mercy in relation to others. When you do those things, you sow into My kingdom and you will inherit the blessings that My family enjoys.
Love, God
