GOD will cause your enemies and haters to see the greatness and potential in you that you’ve failed to see in yourself.

When I look back over my life. I have come to the realisation that my former haters and enemies were for the most part always in a better position than me. So the question is, what exactly were they hating on? Better yet, why were they my enemy when they were way ahead of me materially and financially?

The reality is our physical enemies (humans beings) are unknowingly being influenced, persuaded and led by evil spirits that are fully aware of what God has set aside for us along with what God has called us to be.

These same spirits of jealousy, hate, anger, anti-progress and the like place a demand on their human agents to block, challenge or hinder anything that remotely resembles advancement for you.

Trust me when I say to you that there is always a spirit behind what’s challenging your efforts. And part of that a spirit’s success is to cause you to focus on what you see as the source of contention, such as your fellow human beings, places and things.

There are many folks reading this article right now who should have been much further ahead than they currently are. However, they’ve become a bully to their bullies, an enemy to their enemies and a hater to their haters.

In doing the same things their human enemies are doing to them has resulted in a life of stagnation, misery and anti-progress. The scriptures clearly state that our real fight is not with flesh and blood, instead we are in a constant battle with the invisible forces of evil spirits of jealousy, pride, adultery, fornication and the like that are operating through human beings who do their bidding in the earth (Ephesians 6:12).

This is why it is not spiritually wise to become an enemy to your human enemy. Instead, as a believer of Jesus Christ your main focus must be recognising and discerning the myriad of spirits using these persons to challenge and resist you. Secondly, your fight via prayer must be aimed at the spirits of jealousy, hate, discord or whatever you have determines the operating spirits to be instead of their puppets which are only their human hosts.

In all honesty, most of the folks that are against you cannot give a valid reason as to why they hate you. Their intense jealousy towards you is unwarranted because more than likely they are in better positions than you. If asked why they hate you so much, their answer would probably be: “I don’t know. I just can’t stand them.”

Again, just another piece of evidence of a spirit influencing people to hate you. Please, always keep at the forefront of your mind that you are fighting spirits who are using their human agents to block, hinder or hijack the spiritual blessings that God has in place for you.
