Romans 12:21 (NKJV) - Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
2 Samuel 16:12 (NKJV) - It may be that the LORD will look on my affliction, and that the LORD will repay me with good for His cursing this day.”
“Never pay back evil with evil. Do things in such a way that everyone can see you are honorable.” (Romans 12:17)
But if we don’t retaliate they will walk all over us. That’s the worldly thinking that comes to my mind when I read this passage.
Being a parent for a while now, I’ve see bullying or kids picking on each other quite a bit. How does it stop? Many times I’ve prayed about it for my kids and others. After reading this passage and the ones following it, the remedy is action, not retaliation.
Verse 19 says, “Dear friends, never take revenge. Leave that to the righteous anger of God. Instead, if your enemies are hungry, feed them. If they are thirsty, give them something to drink. Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good.”
The initial evil will continue long-term if no action is taken. Returning evil may stop the issue short-term, but the issue of the heart will never end unless there is repentance and healing. It’s not the person you’re trying to conquer, it’s evil. Only good can battle and win against evil, good non-fearing action and trust in the Lord’s righteous anger will win people and remove the evil from you and them.
