Perfect Prayer Plan

I have attached a file so that you can print out the perfect prayer plan. This has been a fruitful staple in my life for a decade now. I commend it to you. All of it comes straight from the life of Jesus. Remember, #5,#6 and #7 are crucial for your own life - but also the exact things you should be praying into the lives of your enemies.

The topic of today's podcast relates to how you deal with your enemies. But I have lots of questions. What in the world is an enemy in our time? Can I identify an enemy, or a list of enemies, in my life? And once I figure out who it is, compared to simply someone who doesn't like me very much, what am I supposed to do about that?

We are a blessed people in our time. Most of us are protected from people who would truly do us harm. However, sometimes the people closest to us become our enemies. They oppose us, take our words in the worst light, and refuse to rebuild a friendship.

What would God have us do about that? Let's explore some ideas that can help.

- What is an enemy and how how do I determine if someone is an enemy?

- What would Christ have me do with my enemy?

- How important is self-evaluation when dealing with an enemy?

- How important is compassion for an enemy in dealing with them?

- What role does prayer play when the relationship seems irreparably broken?
