You may have heard, “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.” This old saying could have come from Exodus 23; 20—22, “Behold, I am sending an angel before you to protect you along the way and to bring you to the place I have prepared. Pay attention to him and listen to his voice; do not defy him, for he will not forgive rebellion, since My Name is in him. But if you will listen carefully to his voice and do everything I say, I will be an enemy to your enemies and a foe to your foes.” The word listen here is more than just listen, it means to hear and obey. When we hear and obey our Creator, that is when we open ourselves to receiving and embracing every blessing He chooses to give us. He will see our enemies as His enemies.
