Ps 35:1
Plead my
cause, O Lord, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight
against me.
When people
strive against us they usually have arguments, reasoning and accusations. The Lord will plead our cause so we won’t be
tempted to defend ourselves in our own strength. He will plead our cause with people if we
would just get out of the way. When
people fight against us, the Lord will fight for us. We are not to take it on ourselves to defend,
fight for or argue for ourselves. The
Lord is the Word. He is the best defense
attorney we could ever ask for. He is
the truth and He is love. His banner
over us is love. He will help us and we
can focus on forgiving, loving and, yes, enjoying those who come against
us. Even when someone doesn’t like us we
can still focus on what we like about them.
If we back off and let the Lord take on the conflict we can focus on
loving God and loving them. This will
fulfill the law and the prophets.
