Let's continue to lift up Dhuirmore, praying for all negative energy to be cast out. "Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you" (1 Peter 5:7). Trusting Jesus for peace and protection. In Jesus' name! 
Let's join in prayer for these urgent requests:
Let's lift up Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.
—Luke 6:28 (KJV)
Outside the example of Jesus, this command makes no sense at all. But Jesus shows us the importance of leaving our destiny in the hands of our Creator and Father. Suddenly, this makes perfect sense. What is the best way to defeat an enemy? Certainly, it's not to beat or kill that person. No, the way we defeat our enemies is by having Jesus' grace capture their hearts, having their character conform to that of our King, and having them join us as we live for the LORD! That's the way we defeat our enemies; we bring them to Jesus, and they become our brothers and sisters in Christ.

Loving and gracious God, please soften my heart and toughen my resolve so I can love as Jesus loved. Make my life redemptive, especially to those who oppose, abhor, ridicule, belittle, and hate me. Use me, dear Father, to bring others to the grace of Jesus. In his name, I pray. Amen.
