     | 5,072 views

    Subduing your enemies has nothing to do with your enemies -- it requires us to get victory over ourselves. The 2 keys are to listen to God and follow His ways. If we do those, our enemies will automatically be subdued before us!

It tells you something is terribly wrong. But God designed your body to resolve anger as quickly as possible and to move on. Resentment and ...read more
