We stand with you in prayer against the evil that comes from the self, the world, and Satan. We are reminded in the words of the apostle Peter, Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary the devil walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings. 1 Peter 5:8-9 WEB
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your protection and guidance. We acknowledge:
**evil** that may come from
**our own selves** our flesh through temptations, sinful desires, and worldly ambitions.
**the world** the evil influences, false teachings, and immoral practices that surround us.
**the devil** the adversary who seeks to steal, kill, and destroy.
We ask that You guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. We ask for discernment, strength, and the courage to stand against these evils. Help us to put on the whole armor of God, that we may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Ephesians 6:11-12 WEB.
Help us to crucify the flesh with its passions and lusts. Galatians 5:24 WEB. Keep us from being conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of our minds, so that we may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God. Romans 12:2 WEB.
We stand in the fullness of Jesus Christ and ask that you cleanse us from all unrighteousness, keep us from evil, and help us to be beacons of light to a world in need of Your saving grace.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Stand firm in your faith, resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. James 4:7-8
Submit yourselves therefore to God.
