Keep Calm – Be patient! They could be going through a battle you have no idea about. Immediately in your heart pray for them. It is between you and God and God knows them better than you.
Switch the outlook or conversation – God please give me the words to speak to this person or just to let them know to have a nice day and so I can go on my way.
Pick Your Battles – Listen, speak truth into the situation and give this to God. “The battle is MINE,” says The LORD. “Your fight is to keep the faith and stand in MY HOLY WORD that is a sure foundation for you. Stand in unwavering faith when all the odds are against you! “Be firm and determined not to be moved by your circumstances or what you see, hear and understand.
Don’t bring yourself down to Their Level – Raise them up to Jesus perspective. Ask yourself: What would Jesus do?
Understand That it is their choice to be hateful – Tell them have a good day and walk away. Or just say God bless you. Let them think about their own actions.
Don’t let their words or actions affect you – This can sometimes be real hard, but not hard for God. You know you are loved and are better than the evil words someone just throws at you. They can’t hurt you because you know the real you.
Detach Yourself from That Person – Forgive right away, walk away and never turn back. Move on. Eventually they will see their faults in their situation and it is up to them to make amends or not. They will learn to love God and others. The way they need this same love that only God can give.
Anyone who calls on God knows He is closer than any person or problem. Amen. The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth. Psalm 145:18
It reads in Romans 10:3-13:
For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. For Moses described the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them. But the righteousness which is of faith speaks on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above: Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) But what says it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture says, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
“Psalm 65:2-5 “It reads: You who answer prayer, to you all people will come. When we were overwhelmed by sins, you forgave our transgressions. Blessed are those you choose and bring near to live in your courts! We are filled with the good things of your house, of your holy temple. You answer us with awesome and righteous deeds, God our Savior, the hope of all the ends of the earth and of the farthest seas.
