- Know how to deal with this enemy not in our own ways but the Lord’s.
- Believe that God is in the business of preparing something when we are confronting our enemies.

God works on us, our enemy, on other people, or the circumstances.
Trust God for He knows what He is doing. He will pour His grace into our lives in a way that will not only protect us, but that will also bring glory to Him as our enemies see how He works in the lives of us His people.
