This includes you who were once far away from God, you were his enemies, separated from him by your evil thoughts and actions. Colossians 1:21(NLT)
ENEMIES OF GOD
A poem and essay by ILMA
Are you friend or an enemy of God?
Do you defy him or bring him laud?
When you are separated from him by evil
You are perpetuating the camp of the devil.
Those who sow seeds of wickedness
They are rebelling against God’s righteousness
They are considered as God’s enemies
They will be slaves to evil and won’t have happiness.

When I was a kid, we used to play camps. Some of my playmates join the bad camp and others choose the good camp. Then we do many things that will bring points to our camps and the one who gets the highest points get to win. It was pretty easy to be in the bad camp, because they didn’t even have to think hard to do bad things to show they belong to their camp. Those who are in the good camp sometimes struggle of thinking what to do to win the bad to the good camp. It is almost so true in our lives. It is almost second nature to humans to do bad, but takes much effort to do good. The bible says that you are an enemy of God if you turn your backs on him and embrace evil thoughts and actions.
PRAYER
Lord, never forsake me to be in the enemy’s camp.
REFLECTION
How can you avoid being an enemy of God?
