Listen "Impossible for Man: Blessing Those Who Curse You"
Episode Synopsis
"But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you." ~Matthew 5:44
Easier said than done... The Natural Man gravitates toward negativity and can quickly identify what is wrong, but Jesus calls us to see the good in others, bless them, and desire prosperity for them. This isn't the status quo and is considered very unusual in the world around us, but Jesus in us gives us everything we need to actively bless those who others would say do not deserve it. THIS kind of love is possible only with God!
