The Lord Jesus Christ in Matthew 5:44 says to "Love your enemies and Pray for those who persecute you". Sometimes love can be very tough, especially when intervention is needed. Praying can be tough, yet King David prayed imprecatory prayers in the Psalms requesting that the Lord take notice and that his enemies would stumble and fall.

This is so they would repent and turn to the Lord instead of following their wicked ways.

So, the kind of love here is a tough but firm love, and the prayers are not weak but also pointed.

For all of us have gone astray, each of us has turned away, but the Lord has laid the Iniquity of us all (believers) upon Him. And their was probably someone praying for us also, when we did not know the Love of Christ.

Blessings in Prayer.
