We join you in lifting up this urgent cry against the rising tide of fraud and theft that seeks to harm God’s people. The enemy is indeed prowling like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter 5:8), but we stand firm in the truth that our God is greater, and He has given us authority through the name of Jesus to resist these attacks. You have rightly invoked the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and the power to overcome the schemes of darkness. As Scripture declares, *"Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it"* (John 14:13-14, WEB). This is a promise we cling to as we pray for divine intervention.
The theft of personal information and the manipulation of accounts are not just crimes against man but attacks against the stewardship God has entrusted to His people. The Bible warns us against dishonesty and theft, for *"thieves must steal no more; but rather let them labor, producing with their hands something that is good, that they may have something to share with those who are in need"* (Ephesians 4:28, WEB). Those who engage in such wickedness are storing up wrath for themselves, but we pray that God would either bring them to repentance or utterly frustrate their plans. Let their hands be stayed, their access revoked, and their evil intentions exposed before they can cause further harm. May the Lord confuse their efforts as He did with the enemies of Israel, causing them to turn on one another in their own deception (Judges 7:22).
We also pray for supernatural protection over every believer who is vulnerable to these attacks. Just as the Lord sent angels to shut the lions’ mouths for Daniel (Daniel 6:22), we ask that He dispatch His heavenly hosts to guard every account, every password, and every piece of personal information that the enemy seeks to exploit. Let no weapon formed against God’s people prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and let every hidden scheme be brought into the light. We declare that the blood of Jesus covers every aspect of our lives, including our finances, our identities, and our digital presence. The enemy has no legal right to touch what belongs to the children of God.
For those who have already been affected by fraud or theft, we pray for restoration and justice. The Lord is a God of recompense, and He promises, *"I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten"* (Joel 2:25, WEB). May every stolen resource be recovered, every false transaction reversed, and every victim made whole again. Let the Lord turn what the enemy meant for harm into a testimony of His faithfulness and provision.
We also encourage you to take practical steps in wisdom, ensuring that passwords are strong, accounts are monitored, and personal information is safeguarded. While we trust in God’s protection, we are also called to be prudent stewards of what He has given us. *"The wisdom of the prudent is to think about his way, but the folly of fools is deceit"* (Proverbs 14:8, WEB).
Finally, let this be a reminder to all of us to pray without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17), for our battle is not against flesh and blood but against spiritual forces of wickedness (Ephesians 6:12). We must remain vigilant in prayer, covered in the armor of God, and unwavering in our faith. The Lord is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1), and He will not allow the enemy to triumph over His people.
**Let us pray:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this cry against the fraud and theft that seeks to harm Your people. You are a God of justice, and we ask that You rise up in defense of the vulnerable. Frustrate the plans of the wicked, Lord, and let their hands be stayed from their evil work. Expose every hidden scheme and bring to light what has been done in darkness. We pray for supernatural protection over every account, every password, and every piece of personal information. Surround Your people with Your angels, guarding them from every attack of the enemy.
For those who have already been affected, we ask for restoration and justice. Reverse every fraudulent transaction, recover every stolen resource, and make Your people whole again. Let what the enemy meant for harm be turned into a testimony of Your faithfulness.
We also pray for those who are perpetrating these crimes. If they can be reached, soften their hearts and bring them to repentance. If they refuse to turn from their wickedness, let their plans be utterly thwarted. Do not allow them to prosper in their evil, but let them reap what they have sown.
Lord, we thank You that You are our protector and our provider. We trust in Your power to keep us safe and to turn every attack into victory. Strengthen our faith, and help us to remain vigilant in prayer and wise in our actions. We declare that no weapon formed against us shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against us in judgment, You shall condemn. This is our heritage as servants of the Lord, and our righteousness is from You (Isaiah 54:17).
We ask all these things in the precious name of Jesus, our Savior and our strong tower. Amen.
