Dealing with the Giants in Our Land - Part 1 - Charles D Harris

[Jhn 17:15-23 KJV] 15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. 16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. 17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. 18 As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world. 19 And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth. 20 Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; 21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, [art] in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. 22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: 23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

Covenant is what the Father is about.  Being one with Him, the Son and the Spirit. He made a covenant with Israel.  He named the land after the covenant also.

[Deu 7:1-2 NASB] 1 "When the LORD your God brings you into the land where you are entering to possess it, and clears away many nations before you, the Hittites and the Girgashites and the Amorites and the Canaanites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and stronger than you, 2 and when the LORD your God delivers them before you and you defeat them, then you shall utterly destroy them. You shall make no covenant with them and show no favor to them.

Even though there are people groups in the land representing these strongholds, the battle is bigger than people groups.

Listen to Message

[2Co 10:3-6 NASB] 3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh, 4 for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses. 5 We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ, 6 and we are ready to punish all disobedience, whenever your obedience is complete.

Kingdom of God is within you.  It has to have territory not just eupherial.  Requires a territory and a King.  It is very physical in nature.  Example...Healing

To the degree you have his kingdom in you you will have kingdom around you.
[Luk 17:21 NASB] 21 nor will they say, 'Look, here it is!' or, 'There it is!' For behold, the kingdom of God is in your midst."
Israel has covenant God and the land of Israel.

[Jer 31:33-37 KJV] 33 But this [shall be] the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. 34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. 35 Thus saith the LORD, which giveth the sun for a light by day, [and] the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The LORD of hosts [is] his name: 36 If those ordinances depart from before me, saith the LORD, [then] the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever. 37 Thus saith the LORD; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, saith the LORD.


Yeshua provided a way for gentiles to be reconciled to and the covenants of promise.  We are in covenant now with Israel not replacing them.  Their enemies are our enemies and their God our God.  What happens to Israel affects me and what happens to me affects Israel. The condition of our oneness affects the condition of the land and people.
[Eph 2:10-14 KJV] 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. 11 Wherefore remember, that ye [being] in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; 12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: 13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. 14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition [between us];
It's important to come into alignment with the Word of God and order.  It is important to conquer these kingdoms to bring God's rest and prosperity.

You can track every move of God to something that happened in Israel.  You can map every disaster in America to how they treat Israel.  Touch not the anointed of God.  That doesn't mean perfect.  You are anointed of God and you are not perfect.

God wants to reconcile us to his land and people and rest.
[Heb 12:22-23 NASB] 22 But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to myriads of angels, 23 to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, and to God, the Judge of all, and to the spirits of the righteous made perfect,

Allow the spirit of God to deliver these enemies into your hands and smite them.

[Heb 4:12-16 NASB] 12 For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. 13 And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are open and laid bare to the eyes of Him with whom we have to do. 14 Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. 15 For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin. 16 Therefore let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

All of these kingdoms represent an iniquity or bent pointing you away from God ways.

Know this that these nations are

• Greater and stronger - you don't stand a chance
• God will deliver us
• They will be defeated
• They must be annihilated

Hittites חִתִּי - Chaos and False Order (appearance of Looking Good)

Name means terror - they are the architects of terrorism.Its the kind o.f terror that causes things to come apart.  Causing you to come unglued. A return to chaos.  In Gen 1:2 the Lord hovered over chaos and spoke order. God would go into formless and void and say "light".  His nature was to create order out of chaos.  Their nature was to create chaos out of order. This is the spirit of this age.  The antichrist.  Take order and create disorder so there can be a manipulation of a new order. To the degree you are operating in the disorder and chaos in your life the Spirit is trying to get a hold of you and reveal order.
Hittitim were known from a spiritual context of absorption context.  Just add their gods to their gods.  All gods are cool.  Keep including people.  Prototypes of the one world religion. Its interesting that the same people who use terror are the same people that use one world religion.  Its interesting that the most "tolerant" people are the most terrorist like people.  The most liberal seem to be the most intolerable. 


Intercession is be focused on who we are in the love of the Lord.  When the focus is present the humility is present the power is present.  Be the light the world is in need of.

Scriptures to meditate on to deal with Hittite spirit in your land

Hear His voice.  Know who you are in Him.  Then release love to others
[Mar 12:29-31 NASB] 29 Jesus answered, "The foremost is, 'HEAR, O ISRAEL! THE LORD OUR GOD IS ONE LORD; 30 AND YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND, AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH.' 31 "The second is this, 'YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.' There is no other commandment greater than these."

Be humble...
[Jas 4:6-10 NASB] 6 But He gives a greater grace. Therefore it says, "GOD IS OPPOSED TO THE PROUD, BUT GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE." 7 Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. 8 Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 9 Be miserable and mourn and weep; let your laughter be turned into mourning and your joy to gloom. 10 Humble yourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you.

Be the light...bring order

[Jhn 8:12 NASB] 12 Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, "I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life."


[2Co 4:4 NASB] 4 in whose case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that they might not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.

The Inner Life - David Mitts

"Remember the law of Moses My servant, even the statutes and ordinances which I commanded him in Horeb for all Israel. “Behold, I am going to send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and terrible day of the LORD. "He will restore the hearts of the fathers to their children and the hearts of the children to their fathers, so that I will not come and smite the land with a curse." (Malachi 4:4-6 NASB)

This is as we have stated multiple times, a key scripture to live our lives from in these days prior to the day known in scripture as the :great and terrible day of the Lord.  There are 2 key components here:

1.     Remember Torah.

2. Prophetic-led restoration of hearts focused primarily on the generations.

We spoke a few weeks back about remembering in connection with the Feast of Yom Teruah.  Remembering is greatly affected by offense.  When we get offended, we re-interpret reality in the past, by the offense.  What mostly disappears is thankfulness.  Instead our mechanisms of self-protection gather evidence that twists our “knowing” of another.  We experience identity collapse and another idolatrous image appears.  This vain imagination is a twisted re-presentation of the “offender” through our pain and the attending lies of the kingdom of darkness. 

The Hebrew word iniquity, “avon” is described by this twisting reality: the word is a picture of a twisted rope.  There is a strength that is added to the distortions made by twisting or bending away from the light or the truth.  Just like the truth is built precept upon precept, deception is also built lie upon lie, a twisting of reality based on a wound, an offense.  Look with me at Isaiah 28: 5-18

In that day the LORD of hosts will be a crown of glory, and a diadem of beauty, to the remnant of his people, and a spirit of justice to him who sits in judgment, and strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.

This is an end time condition.  There will be a remnant of God’s people. There will be a battle at the gate.  Which gate?  The gate of judgment.  In biblical culture, the gate is the place of hospitality.  Judges sat in the gate and determined who could come in as part of covenant community and also who was friend or foe.  This requires a pure spirit of justice.  Read on:

These also reel with wine and stagger with strong drink; the priest and the prophet reel with strong drink, they are swallowed by wine, they stagger with strong drink, they reel in vision, and they stumble in giving judgment. For all tables are full of filthy vomit, with no space left. (there is a perversion of the prophetic and priestly roles, which closes the gates of hospitality) "To whom will he teach knowledge, and to whom will he explain the message? Those who are weaned from the milk, those taken from the breast? For it is precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little." For by people of strange lips and with a foreign tongue the LORD will speak to this people, to whom he has said, "This is rest; give rest to the weary; and this is repose"; yet they would not hear.

You see, there is a place of rest but it requires the truth.  It requires love and hospitality.  Torah is not only about loving God and keeping His commandments.  Torah is also about a heart that is free to love our neighbors.

 And the word of the LORD will be to them precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little, that they may go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken. Therefore hear the word of the LORD, you scoffers, who rule this people in Jerusalem! Because you have said, "We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol we have an agreement, when the overwhelming whip passes through it will not come to us, for we have made lies our refuge, and in falsehood we have taken shelter";

I know this sounds a little strange, bible-speak, but remember the kingdom of God is within you and is expressed around you.  When we take refuge in lies, or if you rather distort how we think about one another based on our hurts and reinterpretation of the past, we shrink our world and death becomes a covenant partner.  In other words, we give our time, resources, and life energy to the one we are in partnership with.  When lies enter into our thinking about each other then, begin to avoid each other.  We become dead to one another.  Instead of the life of God flowing between us, the death flows between us.  This is anti-Christ.

 therefore thus says the Lord GOD, "Behold, I am the one who has laid as a foundation in Zion, a stone, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, of a sure foundation: 'Whoever believes will not be in haste.' And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plumb line; and hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, and waters will overwhelm the shelter." Then your covenant with death will be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol will not stand; when the overwhelming scourge passes through, you will be beaten down by it. (Isaiah 28:5-18)

Yeshua is our cornerstone.  Yeshua came not only that we would be forgiven and go to heaven.  He came to break the covenant with death.  This is the remembering of Torah of Moshe.  You see Torah isn’t just about keeping Shabbat or keeping the Feasts or even just about Israel and her redemption.  That is Torah but NOT all of it or perhaps not even the most important part.  I won’t debate that.  Torah is also about loving our neighbors as ourselves.  Look with me at Mark 12:28-34:

One of the scribes came and heard them arguing, and recognizing that He had answered them well, asked Him, "What commandment is the foremost of all?" Jesus answered, "The foremost is, 'HEAR, O ISRAEL! THE LORD OUR GOD IS ONE LORD; AND YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND, AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH.' "The second is this, 'YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.' There is no other commandment greater than these." The scribe said to Him, "Right, Teacher; You have truly stated that HE IS ONE, AND THERE IS NO ONE ELSE BESIDES HIM; AND TO LOVE HIM WITH ALL THE HEART AND WITH ALL THE UNDERSTANDING AND WITH ALL THE STRENGTH, AND TO LOVE ONE'S NEIGHBOR AS HIMSELF, is much more than all burnt offerings and sacrifices." When Jesus saw that he had answered intelligently, He said to him, "You are not far from the kingdom of God." After that, no one would venture to ask Him any more questions. (Mark 12:28-34 NASB)

The second part of Malachi’s end tome prophecy relates to Elijah and the healing of generations.  This is a prophetic anointing, a hearing of God specifically targeted at healing wounds in our hearts from the primary agents of blessing in our lives, father and mother.  Of all of the sources of pain and deception that impact our lives, the parental wounds are the most impactful.  These affect our destiny, our inheritance, our stewardship in God’s kingdom.  Malachi tells us that if we don’t get this right our land is cursed.  Look at Ephesians 6:1-4

Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. HONOR YOUR FATHER AND MOTHER (which is the first commandment with a promise), SO THAT IT MAY BE WELL WITH YOU, AND THAT YOU MAY LIVE LONG ON THE EARTH. Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord. (Ephesians 6:1-4 NASB).

Generational iniquity, the twisting of the image and likeness of God in our parents or in our children brings about devastation.  This sets up a kingdom of lies in a covenant with the father of lies who brings about death, death of dreams, death of relationships, death of inheritance.  Both parents and children need to realize that we are living in a broken world with a broken image of who God is and who we are.  It will take great humility and the leading of the Holy Spirit to change this.  Even if we were to manage a change on a small personal level with just discipline, we still have the bigger picture as ambassadors to impact our culture.

This is why the Lord used Elijah as the intercessor.  Elijah brings the power of prayer, prophetic prayer to the picture and confronts the strongholds of Jezebel and Baal directly.  You see Jezebel was all about mind control, head-trips.

(There was none who sold himself to do what was evil in the sight of the LORD like Ahab, whom Jezebel his wife incited. (1 Kings 21:25)

We live in a Jezebel Ahab time period.  It is going to take the Elijah anointing to turn the hearts back to the Lord and to each other. 

So, how do we enter into that anointing?  Charles spoke to us about the salt covenant last week and being the salt.  This is the friendship covenant.  He spoke about coming into the place of love.  We know we need to repent to enter into the Kingdom.  But how do we access it over and over?

To answer that let’s look at Philippians 4:4-7

Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentle spirit be known to all men. The Lord is near. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:4-7)

First and foremost we need to learn to rejoice in the Lord!  When we abandon ourselves to Him, it releases us from some degree of self consciousness.  We cannot be rejoicing over Him and worrying about our own self protection at the same time.

Next our gentle spirit needs to be how we are known by all men.  This word gives the impression of an unwillingness to judge, an attitude of bearing with another’s weaknesses.  This is said to give another testimony of the nearness of the Lord!

Anxiety is a root of much separation.  We disconnect when we become anxious.  The Elijah anointing brings us instead into prayer and supplication with thanksgiving.

Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the earth for three years and six months. Then he prayed again, and the sky poured rain and the earth produced its fruit. (James 5:17-18).

The Elijah mantle that is released in the last days is about restoration generationally.  Yet the methodology is a type of prevailing prayer.  The result is a peace or a state of shalom which actually becomes the protection that our hearts and minds need that the lies of self protection were counterfeiting.  Our heart and our minds need to be open to work correctly.  A closed heart is a hardened heart.  A closed mind is a rigid mind unable to see outside of a fixed perspective.  Together they make up what we call the religious spirit.  As we learn to truly pray, to ask God to give us His perspective and His desires, we discover that we begin to see life completely differently.  Now, we can enter into Philippians 4:8-9.

Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things. The things you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you. (Philippians 4:8-9 NASB).

This is actually a restoration of relationships that brings about the blessing.  In focussing our hearts and minds of what is true and honorable, right and pure, the things of a good reputation and worthy of praise, we attract the God of Peace into our lives.  I suggest that we should begin now by an activation.

Elijah Restoration Activation

The purpose of this prophetic activation is to draw a believer into the reality of the blessing out of the curse. 

"I call heaven and earth to witness against you today, that I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse. So choose life in order that you may live, you and your descendants, (Deuteronomy 30:19 NASB)

Explanation: Since we are in many ways who we remember ourselves as, it is in remembrance that freedom or bondage can control our lives.  The kingdom of darkness works primarily through iniquity, the twisting of reality.  The Hebrew word used for night in the Bible is: Laila. It comes from the word picture of a spiral staircase which turns one away from the light.  What we want to recover in this activation is righteousness in our soul.  Our spirit has already been made righteous by the Blood of Yeshua.  Yet our soul is in the process of sanctification.  The goal, as I see it, is to be spirit-led in our soul and live the life of liberty.

We are going to press in for a word from the throne that reveals where we have knowingly or unknowingly entered into a covenant with death.  This is place where a lie has become our point of agreement.  We are going to ask the Lord to reveal to us the truth in the matter and allow the spirit of Elijah to turn our hearts to the Father and all others as well.

Pray after me:  Father, I am a blood washed child of yours.  Father, in You I live and move and have my being.  Your Spirit is the truth spirit and I know that above any thing else You will give me your spirit, your truth when I ask.   Father reveal to me any place where I have made a covenant with death, where I have allowed a lie to determine my reality.

Good. Now allow the Lord to show you where the intruder is.  As the Lord is revealing to you what He is showing you just accept it as what He wants to deal with now.  Now ask Him what the unGodly agreement is. 

OK. Now let's rescind that agreement.  Break it in Yeshua's name!

Now, let's fill the void with a covenant agreement of life, of blessing.  Ask the Lord to tell you a truth that will be the new covenant of His Torah written in your heart.

As you hear, receive and declare the following out loud!

I have heard you, Father.  You are my Lord.  You alone are my God!  I commit to loving you with ALL of my heart, soul and body.  I commit to loving my neighbor as myself!

Halleluyah

Love Covers - Charles D Harris

1Pe 4:7-9 NASB - 7 The end of all things is near; therefore, be of sound judgment and sober spirit for the purpose of prayer. 8 Above all, keep fervent in your love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins. 9 Be hospitable to one another without complaint.

Pro 10:12 NASB - 12 Hatred stirs up strife, But love covers all transgressions.

Our great commission is to

Mar 12:30-31 KJV - 30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this [is] the first commandment. 31 And the second [is] like, [namely] this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.

Let’s talk about salt

Mat 5:13 NASB - 13 "You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.

“Salt is a necessity of life and was a mineral that was used since ancient times in many cultures as a seasoning, a preservative, a disinfectant, a component of ceremonial offerings, and as a unit of exchange. The Bible contains numerous references to salt. In various contexts, it is used metaphorically to signify permanence, loyalty, durability, fidelity, usefulness, value, and purification.” - Wikipedia

You are to be salty people in the midst of the world to bring flavor of God to the world as well as sweet savor to God.  

The salt covenant is a covenant of friendship initiated from God with Abraham.  This is a new covenant dimension in addition to the blood covenant.

Lev 2:13 NASB - 13 'Every grain offering of yours, moreover, you shall season with salt, so that the salt of the covenant of your God shall not be lacking from your grain offering; with all your offerings you shall offer salt.

Num 18:19 NASB - 19 "All the offerings of the holy gifts, which the sons of Israel offer to the LORD, I have given to you and your sons and your daughters with you, as a perpetual allotment. It is an everlasting covenant of salt before the LORD to you and your descendants with you."

2Ch 13:5 NASB - 5 "Do you not know that the LORD God of Israel gave the rule over Israel forever to David and his sons by a covenant of salt?

I Call You Friends

Pro 27:17 KJV - 17 Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.

Isa 41:8 KJV - 8 But thou, Israel, [art] my servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham my friend.

Jam 2:23 KJV - 23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.

Jhn 15:15 NASB - 15 "No longer do I call you slaves, for the slave does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I have heard from My Father I have made known to you.

Perspective of Seeing

2Ki 6:8-23 NASB - [8] Now the king of Aram was warring against Israel; and he counseled with his servants saying, "In such and such a place shall be my camp." [9] The man of God sent word to the king of Israel saying, "Beware that you do not pass this place, for the Arameans are coming down there." [10] The king of Israel sent to the place about which the man of God had told him; thus he warned him, so that he guarded himself there, more than once or twice. [11] Now the heart of the king of Aram was enraged over this thing; and he called his servants and said to them, "Will you tell me which of us is for the king of Israel?" [12] One of his servants said, "No, my lord, O king; but Elisha, the prophet who is in Israel, tells the king of Israel the words that you speak in your bedroom." [13] So he said, "Go and see where he is, that I may send and take him." And it was told him, saying, "Behold, he is in Dothan." [14] He sent horses and chariots and a great army there, and they came by night and surrounded the city. [15] Now when the attendant of the man of God had risen early and gone out, behold, an army with horses and chariots was circling the city. And his servant said to him, "Alas, my master! What shall we do?" [16] So he answered, "Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them." [17] Then Elisha prayed and said, "O LORD, I pray, open his eyes that he may see." And the LORD opened the servant's eyes and he saw; and behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. [18] When they came down to him, Elisha prayed to the LORD and said, "Strike this people with blindness, I pray." So He struck them with blindness according to the word of Elisha. [19] Then Elisha said to them, "This is not the way, nor is this the city; follow me and I will bring you to the man whom you seek." And he brought them to Samaria. [20] When they had come into Samaria, Elisha said, "O LORD, open the eyes of these men, that they may see." So the LORD opened their eyes and they saw; and behold, they were in the midst of Samaria. [21] Then the king of Israel when he saw them, said to Elisha, "My father, shall I kill them? Shall I kill them?" [22] He answered, "You shall not kill them. Would you kill those you have taken captive with your sword and with your bow? Set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink and go to their master." [23] So he prepared a great feast for them; and when they had eaten and drunk he sent them away, and they went to their master. And the marauding bands of Arameans did not come again into the land of Israel.

Luk 10:22-24 NASB - 22 "All things have been handed over to Me by My Father, and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and anyone to whom the Son wills to reveal Him." 23 Turning to the disciples, He said privately, "Blessed are the eyes which see the things you see, 24 for I say to you, that many prophets and kings wished to see the things which you see, and did not see them, and to hear the things which you hear, and did not hear them."

Love Your Enemies

Mat 5:44 NASB - 44 "But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,

Luk 6:27, 35 NASB - 27 "But I say to you who hear, love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, ... 35 "But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High; for He Himself is kind to ungrateful and evil men.

Pro 16:7 NASB - 7 When a man's ways are pleasing to the LORD, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.

Forgive them; they know not what they do

Luk 23:34 NASB - 34 But Jesus was saying, "Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing." And they cast lots, dividing up His garments among themselves.

You need Holy Spirit to have a new perspective and power

Jhn 20:22-23 NASB - 22 And when He had said this, He breathed on them and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit. 23 "If you forgive the sins of any, their sins have been forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they have been retained."

Make peace

Mar 9:50 NASB - 50 "Salt is good; but if the salt becomes unsalty, with what will you make it salty again? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another."

Let us use this opportunity to not be tasteless. Ask the Lord where have I allowed offence and hardness of heart, shame to cause me to loose flavor.
