IT'S PAYBACK TIME!
Our natural man or human nature loves vengeance, and if left alone, we could take laws into our hands and effect extreme vengeance, unless we hear and obey God's Word that says, VENGEANCE IS MINE, I WILL REPAY! Romans 12:19. Nevertheless, God recommends His own superior way we could strike back or pay back and get blessed in the process, because He really, truly wants us blessed ALWAYS!
1 Peter 2:23.
While being reviled and insulted, Jesus did not retaliate, revile or insult in return; while suffering, He made no threats [of vengeance], but kept entrusting Himself to God who always judges fairly.
1 Peter 3:8-12.
Finally, all of you be like-minded [united in spirit], sympathetic, brotherly, kindhearted [courteous and compassionate toward each other as members of one household], and humble in spirit; and never RETALIATE, REVENGE or return evil for evil or insult for insult [avoid scolding, berating, and any kind of abuse], but on the contrary, RETALIATE or REVENGE this way, give a blessing [pray for one another’s well-being, contentment, and protection]; for you have been called for this very purpose, that you might inherit a blessing [from God that brings well-being, happiness, and protection]. For, “The one who wants to enjoy life and see good days [good—whether apparent or not], Must keep his tongue free from evil and his lips from speaking guile (treachery, deceit). “He must turn away from wickedness and do what is right. He must search for peace [with God, with self, with others] and pursue it eagerly [actively—not merely desiring it]. “For the eyes of the Lord are [looking favorably] upon the righteous (the upright), And His ears are attentive to their prayer (eager to answer), But the face of the Lord is against those who practice evil.”
REMEMBER, BEING BORN AGAIN, WE'RE NO LONGER JUST HUMANS, BUT SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF GOD AND CITIZENS OF HEAVEN WHO TAKE DELIGHT IN OBEYING NOT OUR FEELINGS OR WHATEVER IS ACCEPTABLE IN THE SOCIETY, BUT WE OBEY THE LORD AND HIS WORD PROMPTLY AND ABSOLUTELY ALWAYS! HALLELUJAH!
