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?

But he will pour out his anger and wrath on those who live for themselves, who refuse to obey the truth and instead live lives of wickedness. There will be trouble and calamity for everyone who keeps on doing what is evil. – Romans 2: 8-9(NLT)
AVOIDING GOD’S WRATH
A poem and essay by ILMA
Do you stop when you realize that you are sinning?
Do you get bothered when you are constantly disobeying?
There will be trouble for those who choose evil and wickedness
The wrath of God will be inevitable to all the proud and the lawless.
We are made into God’s image and in his righteousness
Whenever we choose the opposite, we live in darkness
We can avoid God’s wrath by following his will and commands
It will surely help us navigate through life and all of its demands.

How can many Christians avoid the wrath of God? Do you realize that there is something that God hates? It is refusing to obey the truth and choosing to live lives that are evil and wicked. God loves all people but he doesn’t love it when they do evil purposely. We have a very forgiving and merciful father in heaven, but he also allows us to choose the right things and the truth. If we opt to do the wrong thing and continue to live in darkness, there will be consequences to these choices.
PRAYER
Lord, help me never to sin purposely and to repent and confess when I do.
REFLECTION
How can we avoid God’s wrath?
