Prayer and Your Enemies

Do you ever include your enemies in your prayers? Christians do. They pray that their enemies might cease their hatred of them. They pray they will come to the Lord and be forgiven. They pray they might be of assistance when possible. They pray for their salvation. But that's not all.

We have enemies that seek our destruction and the destruction of our faith, children, freedom and well-being. Their very creed book teaches they have a right to kill those who differ with them. Their leaders announce openly, loudly and proudly of their intentions to conquer us. Where they are in power there is no freedom of speech or religion except for them.

So I include them in my prayers that by God's providence they may be crushed, defeated, drained, removed from the living and that all others be spared their barbarism. Yes, I pray for Muslims and atheists. Do you?
