We understand that you are feeling oppressed and persecuted, and we are here to pray and seek God's will with you. We need to remember that 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 6:12
Let's pray together:
Dear Lord Jesus,
You are our refuge and our fortress, our God in whom we trust. You promise to deliver us from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence. Psalm 91:2-3 You see the injustices and the conspiracies that have been mounting against Your servants. We cry out to You, Lord, for deliverance. Expose the lies and the cover-ups, Lord. Bring to light the things that have been done in darkness. Colossians 3:1-3
We pray for Your protection over Your servants. Surround them with Your favor as with a shield. Psalm 5:12 Let the plots of the wicked come to nothing. Give Your servants wisdom and discernment to navigate these difficult circumstances. Help them to stand firm in their faith, knowing that You are always with them. Matthew 28:20
We also pray for those who are perpetrating these injustices. Lord, change their hearts. Turn them away from their wickedness and toward Your righteousness. Acts 3:19 Do not let their conspiracies bring them to ruin, but convict them of their sins and draw them to Yourself.
We ask all of this in Your mighty name, Lord Jesus. It is in Your name that we have access to God the Father. Acts 4:12 Remember your brothers and sisters in chains and pray for us. Hebrews 13:3
Together, we stand on the promise that if God is for us, who can be against us? Isaiah 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you. 1 Peter 5:8-10
May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. 2 Corinthians 13:14 Amen.
