GIVE ME THE ENEMY I CAN SEE.
Most of the life experiences and challenges we face everyday are caused by enemies within, the known and unknown enemies. Often time we go out on a daily bases praying and hoping to achieve success at the end of the day and while on the way we encounter unforseen challenges that we do not know how it came about. We make plans of what we want to do and before we could finish planning, we find out that we have lost the zeal to perfect the plans. Sometimes your friend you disclosed your plans can be the one that will prevent you from finishing your plans.
At times you see yourself starting a project and at the middle of it you begin to have cold feet towards finishing the project, and in this case no one is sitting beside you to discourage you from finishing what you started but rather your own self, you will be hearing some thoughts and words of discouragement coming out from your head to pull your spirit down from finishing the project and when you oblige to the voice you see yourself not finishing the project.
Have you in any way found yourself in such situation before? Everyone in life should always pray to know who his or her enemy is, by so doing you will be able to know where your problem is coming from and how to tackle it.
I will tell you a story about two friends who became colleagues at the office, because of how the other person was working hard and gaining promotions at the office, his friend became jealous of him and planned with some bad people to set him up. So on that fateful day his friend that was promoted at the office was driving down the street to pay his friend a visit and he didn't know that his jealous friend had already paid and planted some men to stop him on his way so they can plant gun in his car, he jealous friend also paid the police to stop and search his car as he approaches his house so they can find the planted gun inside his car, arrest and jail him, when his friend saw those men flanking him to stop, he obliged and stopped, they requested for a lift which he accepted and told them to enter his car so he can drop them since they are going his way as well, after a distance they asked him to stop so they can highlight from the car because they have reached where they were going, he stopped, dropped them and drove off to his friend's place.
On the way something struck his mind to stop the car and search his vehicle because he didn't trust those people he gave lift on his way to his friend's house, as he was searching his car he saw the gun they planted in his car seat and removed it, he entered his car and drove off. Getting to his friend's place the police stopped him and told him to come down from his car that they want to search the vehicle, the police searched the car and couldn't find anything to incriminate him and they allowed him to go.
When he came to his friend's house and was narrating the ordeal to his jealous friend and his jealous friend immediately got a call and told his friend to wait let him go and answer the call outside, as he went outside to pick his call, he didn't know that his colleague was listening to his conversation on call with the person that called him and he heard everything his friend was saying and how he was blaming the guys for messing up the task he gave them instructions to carry out in other to implicate his colleagues at the office by planting gun in his car on his way to his house.
As soon as he dropped the call, he turned and saw his colleagues at his back and he was shocked and started pleading for forgiveness. And his friend left his house in heart break and pains.
Now most of us in life one way or the other have experienced such kind of people around us, we have fallen victim of such from the hands of those people we have trusted and taken as our own brothers, sisters and friends. We may not see their plans but because our intention are genuine and pure with them, God finds a way to open our eyes to see their evil thought towards us.
As human, such situations will and must surely come to us in our daily lives from people we may meet on our ways but the prayer and believe we must have in our hearts is for God to always open our eyes to see their plans before they execute their wicked plans.
My prayers always is for God to Give me the enemy I can see with my eyes each time I come across one in my life.

I hate betrayal the most that I don't like to experience it. But this story I could tell that on the other side it's good to know who will betray you than keeping them stab you behind your back.
