Think of the person, organization, or group that you dislike the most in life. Maybe one that you've considered your enemy. Maybe one that you even hate with a passion because of something they did or maybe did to you....
Now pray they are blessed. Not in a condescending way, like none of this stuff like "i hope they realize what they did wrong.." or "I hope they are blessed with a new car and then drive it over a cliff". ha ha...
But pray authentically that your enemy will be blessed. Pray that good things happen to them. That they prosper. That they receive tremendous blessings from God.
....43Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. 44But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
45That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
46For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
47And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?
48Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
I'll start....
Dear lord I pray for those that are persecuting me. I pray that they are comforted, that they prosper, that they have good health and sound mind, I pray they're careers and family life is blessed, and I pray that they're employers are equally as prosperous and blessed. Thank you for these people, give them guidance, peace fulfillment and discernment in there jobs. And please help them all to discover who you are. And please forgive me for feeling any ill will toward them. Thank you lord Jesus, in your name I pray amen.
