Please pray for the "Judas Iscariot" in my life. I love her but I need to love her from afar. I hoped she had changed. But I see that I was wrong. Pray that Jesus would change her before it backfires and she ends up losing her own soul.
Wise as a serpent .gentle as a dove.
Love my enemies.
Save them Jesus. What does it profit a man to gain the whole world, but lose your own soul?
It is wonderful to see that the Lord has given you wisdom. There are times we must withdraw from those whose words or actions may harm us. I read an old-time preacher give the example of how a serpent is wise, in the sense that it knows when to crawl under a rock when it sees a boot coming down near its head! :)
Let's pray:
Father, I praise You for giving Donna wisdom in dealing with this treacherous friend. I thank You for giving Donna grace to love her enemies and to pray for those who despitefully use her. Now we pray for this friend, that you will convict her. I pray you will not give her rest morning, noon, or night until she sees and confesses her sin to You, and sees her need of Your forgivenss and cleansing. Once that work of grace is done, I ask for further grace for her to get things right between Donna and herself.
Father, You are the Potter; we are the clay; soften the clay of this friend's heart; get Your fingers deep into the clay, and remove all the lumps; then, reshape that clay into a beautiful vessel of honor for Your own glory! We ask this in Jesus's holy name, and we give you thanks before hand, trusting for you to work in all of us! Amen and Amen!
