Pursue peace by pursuing enemies

LEV 26:6-7 NIV

“ ‘I will grant peace in the land, and you will lie down and no one will make you afraid. I will remove wild beasts from the land, and the sword will not pass through your country. You will pursue your enemies, and they will fall by the sword before you.

Pursuing is the key operative here. Contrastingly in order to gain peace I need to pursue my enemies with my sword which is God's Word and power of the resurrection of Jesus.

Don't take a passive positioning in order to be in His presence. What am I doing to proactively take down my enemies?

Dear God, may I be encouraged by Your word daily to charge forward in the midst of my busy journey here in this world. In Jesus' name. Amen.
