An unjust enemy is a force or an entity that hates a particular person for an unknown wrong reason. It can be in the form of a battle with a physical person or spiritual warfare against unseen demonic forces. Unjust enemies just like as derived from the word ‘unjust’ usually hate us for no justifiable reasons. This hatred arises most times as a result of extreme jealousy of our glory and blessings.
As Christians, we must remain steadfast in Christ because we carry His glory and the devil, who is our greatest unjust enemy, hates us for this. Therefore he always keeps trying to torment us and fight against us brutally. But we have been vindicated through the blood of Jesus Christ and our victory is made perfect through the Almighty God over every unjust enemy.
We are going to be using Psalm 35 to pray against the devil and that every unjust enemy is conquered and destroyed.
