I brought this up this past Sunday, but it's worth mentioning again and hearing afresh...
Your enemy is not flesh and blood but spiritual forces, powers, authorities, forces of evil and wickedness. That means any personal being bearing skin and bones is not on the enemy list.
Spouses are not the enemy.
Kids are not the enemy.
Parents are not the enemy.
Coworkers are not the enemy.
Crazy drivers are not the enemy.
Neighbors with stupid yippy dogs are not the enemy.
Teachers are not the enemy.
Students are not the enemy.
Arabs are not the enemy.
Africans are not the enemy.
Americans are not the enemy.
Democrats are not the enemy.
Republicans are not the enemy.
Homosexuals are not the enemy.
Happily married people are not the enemy.
Predecessors are not the enemy.
Government employees are not the enemy.
Flight attendants are not the enemy.
Jerks at the YMCA are not the enemy.
And I could keep going. But you get the idea. You and I have an Enemy. It's none of the above nor any other flesh and bone. It's Satan who has an agenda to steal, kill and destroy.
But that's just me thinking thoughts...
