Listen to the latest 60 second episode of Integrity Moments with Rick Boxx
In business, many people may betray you, mock you, or cause you pain. This can lead you to consider them as enemies.
The world will encourage you to destroy your enemies, but God’s ways are different. The story of Jonah is a great example.
Jonah viewed Nineveh as the enemy, and he harbored deep hatred for them. Even after God spared Nineveh, Jonah was angry with God’s compassion on Nineveh.
However, in Jonah 4:11, God said to Jonah, “Should I not have concern for the great city of Nineveh, in which there are more than a hundred and twenty thousand people who cannot tell their right hand from their left—and also many animals?” (NIV)
God has forgiven us for our wickedness, should we do any less for our enemies?
