Dear reader, there are those among us that insinuate themselves, entering in where they are not invited. They are peace thieves; it delights them to no end to cause trouble, disturb the joyful, infect the cheery, with glib and grim insults, casting aspersions on their prey with the intention of maiming to fatally wound. If they can't get their hands around a throat to strangle, they will go about their killing business another way. There is no end to the scheming for the demonically inclined, and this type of relentlessness is rewarded, if and when, the victim of their onslaughts, shows signs of weakness via reaction, or any other indication of injury.
It is pearls to swine to give maniacal maniacs any attention at all, other than to turn the back to them, brush the dust off, and walk away. Dust to dust dear reader: when dealing with a human that acts like the devil, they are a dead thing, and you do not have to give them any of the life force that moves in you and gives you your being. The demonically motivated cannot stand being ignored, and they will, and do, find ways to engage those they hate. I will give you a little tip about people that have demons residing within: they hate a lot and often, and while you may feel singularly selected, and you may very well be their pet project person to antagonize, they have many similar interests, and wreak havoc wherever they go. It isn't personal, meaning you aren't the only one they target: these pseudo people get their kicks from kicking anyone and everyone that opposes them, that they cannot control or coral, and they delight in the discomfort and discomfiture they instigate.
So, this brings us to the strategy you may want to employ when gorilla attacked or sucker punched. Highlighted is what you already know from past experienced, followed by what you can do to combat your assailant, to secure your peace:
1. The demonic enjoy sneak attacks and throwing their prey off guard
Refrain from rushing in to defend your honour. The assailant wants you to react and knows that if his insults and insinuations have hit the mark, you will become incensed and perhaps even enraged. He/She loves rage, especially yours. The predator will take credit gleefully when the arrow they shot hits the target of your mind, heart, or spirit
2. The demonic live to lie
You know this person is a liar, and attempts to twist truth to accommodate their own bent out of shape personality and character. Know too, that no matter what you say or do, all will be used against you in their sick court of corrupted law. You cannot win when wrestling with a rattle snake. Their words are venomous and when they strike, it is solely for the purpose of infecting you with poison. If you don't trust them, then you already know not to trust a word of what they snakily speak.
Do not fall for their lies when they say horrible things about you. Do not believe or take to heart their disgusting suggestions: stand firm, as though the darts they toss, have fallen to the floor without ever getting near the board. Finally, say very little if anything in response. If you must respond, be curt, minus any hint of emotion.
3. The demonic are relentless
These strange villains appear to be tireless and limitless too, in their subtle and clever warfare. They are sneaky, and it is alarming that they seem to be almost genius in their craftiness, in their ability to come up with plans of mental, emotional, and spiritual, torture. How, you ask yourself, could they possibly come up with yet another plot and plan to snake their way into my life and once more, thieve away my peace?
You must be prepared. You need not be waiting and anticipating their sneak attack, it will come. Rather, enjoy yourself and your life, and when this person that loves to hate you contacts you, just know that they have mischief in mind. Buy yourself time, dear reader. Do not dance when they shoot bullets at your feet. Treat them like you would spam, or a door to door solicitor that you want to avoid. Give yourself rules to follow that create boundaries that prevent their entry: when you do see the interloper on your property, meaning they have entered into your thoughts and irritated your mind, stealing your peace, sort out what their intentions are so that you understand what they want to accomplish via the sneak attack.
Revenge is a motivator for people that have been thwarted in their attempts to dominate others. Giving them what they want by letting them know you are upset, encourages them greatly, to continue to chip away at your peace. This predator wants you to be on edge, to be anxious, to think of nothing other than what they have attempted to plant in your mind. They are sowers of discord and it serves you well, to understand this without any wavering: we all bear fruit, and the predators fruit is inedibly rotten, sickening the stomach. Nothing they have to offer you or suggest to you is for your well-being. It behooves you to acknowledge this and stand firm. Unless this person dies to their flesh by being born again in Christ Jesus, they will continue to corrupt their own spirit, and work tirelessly to corrupt yours too. Know that your peace in this world comes from your relationship with Christ, and that no matter what anyone says to you, Truth is your vindicator.
I end with the wisdom of scripture as your encouragement:
