You have to get to a point in your life where you are not affected by what people think about you. You don't allow what people say about you to affect you.
There are a lot of miserable people in the world that don't want to see someone else happy.
The Lord told me one day that if I continue to allow what people said about me or what they thought about me to affect me, I will always fall subject to my flesh because I would try to defend myself against what was being said.
The word of God tells us that the enemy comes to kill, steal, and to destroy. We have to always be aware of the enemy's schemes. He will send people to try to provoke you.
And this is why it is important to guard your heart, guard your mind, guard your feelings. Your peace is important and you have to protect it. But when you see someone being used by the enemy to fight against you, don't give the devil no opportunity to come in and cause you to sin against God.
This is how you become victorious over the enemy.
