Good afternoon,
I trust you all had a great time with family and friends and indeed did have a merry Christmas.
In looking over your material, you are discussing varied books such as Psalms and Ecclesiastes. Yet, they do tie together.
Ecclesiastes tells us there is a time for everything. It even says there is a time to kill! This perhaps makes us think of some military actions. Anytime you have military action, you do have enemies.
In the New Testament, we are told to pray for our enemies.
I have always thought of this meaning that we are to pray for good for even our enemies; yet in Psalms we have examples of how David prayed for some of his enemies, and he was not necessarily praying good things over them.
How are we to pray for our enemies? Is David's example a proper example for us?
Please try to respond to this in one or more of your remaining posts this week--either in answer to each other's questions or in a comment that stands alone.
How should we pray for our enemies?
