Usually the timing is when you are in the most vulnerable situations, their true feelings will come out.  Then you realize you have an enemy although you did unto them no wrong.  In David\u2019s case he fled from Absalom his son, to save his life.  At that moment came out a man that hid hatred and persecuted him with words.  <strong>2<\/strong><sup><strong>nd<\/strong><\/sup><strong> Samuels 16:11<\/strong> <em>\u201cAnd David said to Abishai, and to all his servants, Behold, my son, which came forth of my bowels, seeketh my life: how much more now may this Benjamite do it? let him alone, and let him curse; for the LORD hath bidden him.\u201d<\/em>  The warriors of David wanted to take off the head of the man that cursed.  His response was in temperance, meaning with great self control.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\nInstead of letting his anger take over, he understood that his\npersecution was partly his fault and that the Benjamite will not\nescape God for his wicked speech.  <strong>Proverbs 14:29<\/strong> <em>\u201cHe\nthat is slow to wrath is of great understanding: but he that is hasty\nof spirit exalteth folly.\u201d<\/em>  What we could learn from this is\nnot always best to retaliate even if you are right.  The time will\ncome as it did with the Benjamite that they will be ashamed and\npunished for their actions.  \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\nRemember that as believers we receive persecution because we do not\nconform to the world.  <strong>John 15:20<\/strong> <em>\u201cRemember the word that\nI said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they\nhave persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept\nmy saying, they will keep yours also.\u201d<\/em>   Therefore when they\nspeak against you, it is not you they despise but Christ.  <strong>John\n15:18<\/strong> <em>\u201cIf the world hate you, ye know that it hated me\nbefore it hated you.\u201d  <\/em>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\nTo read along while you listen visit the following link:\n<a href=\"http:\/\/12tribes.net\/bible\/psa007\/\">http:\/\/12tribes.net\/bible\/psa007\/<\/a>\nShalam!  \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pod.12t.co\/bible-readings\/psalms7.php\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/12tribes.net\/stn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/download-orange.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-791\" width=\"300\" height=\"107\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n<div class=\"powerpress_player\" id=\"powerpress_player_6599\"><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-1259-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/pod.12t.co\/bible-readings\/psalms7.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/pod.12t.co\/bible-readings\/psalms7.mp3\">http:\/\/pod.12t.co\/bible-readings\/psalms7.mp3<\/a><\/audio><\/div><!--powerpress_player-->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are times when a person will speak against you.
