Love Your Enemies by Bill Dupley
Jesus said many difficult words. He told us to do several things that are the direct opposite of what we want to do, for example:

The journaling below is from Ian Wilkinson, one of our Christian Leadership University students. It is a word of encouragement and guidance for these times of great change.
God’s plan: That I see Jesus at my side always. Tuning to Spirit flow turns this godly imagination into a living encounter with Jesus.
Godly imagination transforms into a vision when I pray for the eyes of my heart to be enlightened, tune to flow, and the Spirit brings the scene alive. These visions bring joy, peace, and hope.
My daughter, Charity Kayembe, has written an amazing article on this topic of what it means that we are witnesses of Jesus Christ. She has graciously allowed me to reprint it below. Thank you, Charity!
Please read: The Great Commission, Part 1 – Am I “beholding Jesus with me at all times”? (Available here). What does it mean when Jesus says in the Great Commission: "Behold I am with you always." Does "behold" involve seeing Him present with me as I walk down the road of life? What is the definition of the Greek word (Strong's G2400) which is translated "Lo" or "Behold"?
The Great Commission: "All authority is given to Me in Heaven and on earth. Therefore go and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things, whatever I commanded you. And, behold (Greek: G2400), I am with you all the days until the end of the world. Amen." (Matt. 28:18-20 Modern KJV)
LaWanda – O Jesus, precious Lord and Savior, what gratitude I am experiencing this morning. So very grateful to be in your presence, Lord. So grateful, Lord, that because of the Cross we can come boldly to your throne of Grace. Thank you, Lord, that you have snuggled me into your secret place. O Lord, that you have drawn me here, that it is your desire to fellowship with me blows me away, Lord. O Jesus, I bow before you now. I love you , Lord. Hide me you hour Holiness, Lord Jesus. There is none like you, Lord. None like you.
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Ephesians 6: 11
Ian Wilkinson is a Christian Leadership University student. Here is some journaling he just sent me. I feel it is prophetic.The meditation below is from 2 Kings 19. Read the chapter.
Though the economic system (mammon) of this world is under a curse, we have received instructions for how to move out from that dominion and into the blessing of the Kingdom of God. God’s promises to His children have not changed with the whims of government or Wall Street, nor have His directions for how to walk in those promises. We can “choose not to participate” in the economic recession that is around us if we instead choose to obey the logos and rhema of the Lord and enjoy the blessings that result.

Many years ago, I read a book similar to this one by MaryAnn Diorio. In it, God was speaking for page after page. I so hungered to be able to hear God’s voice as the authors of that book did, and as MaryAnn does on the pages of this book.
Now God has allowed me the privilege of raising up an army of writers who are sharing what God has spoken to them. This devotional by MaryAnn contains 100 amazing journal entries of God speaking. Below is one sample:

Do you sometimes struggle with thoughts and feelings that you don't measure up? I do and I sometimes need a second opinion and a different perspective. In 2006, during an intense season of first doubt and then searching, God gave me His opinion, His heart for me. It set in motion the victories and freedom I now experience in life. I pray you'll be encouraged by the Scriptures and thoughts God gave me during that time.
