Just a Little Prayer

Father God I ask of you to 
Open my eyes to see my enemies
to open my ears to hear the true feelings of the individuals who stand before me who say
from their lips they are my friends but when I turn my back he/she is plotting something against me 
to open my mind to have clarity and to know when she/he really means me no good
BUT MOST OF ALL
To chisel my heart to forgive my enemies 
To allow me to have continuous FAITH that you will fight my battles and you will either
Chisel my enemies heart to be more like yours and/or for me to be strong enough when you remove them and NOT to run after them wondering why she/he is gone and see that you removed them for my own good
and to lean not to my own understanding

I decree and declare in JESUS name 
AMEN!
