We stand together in agreement, lifting up this urgent cry for justice and protection against the wicked schemes of fraud and theft. The enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy, but we declare that no weapon formed against us shall prosper, for the Lord is our strong tower and refuge.
Father, we rebuke every spirit of deception, greed, and covetousness that drives individuals to violate Your commandments by stealing and defrauding others. Your Word is clear: *"You shall not steal. You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor"* (Exodus 20:15-16 WEB). Those who persist in such sins without repentance are storing up wrath for themselves in the day of judgment (Romans 2:5). We pray for conviction to fall upon their hearts, that they may turn from their wicked ways and seek Your mercy.
We also recognize the importance of wisdom and vigilance in protecting what You have entrusted to us. Help us to be shrewd as serpents and innocent as doves (Matthew 10:16), guarding our personal information, accounts, and assets with diligence. Lord, we ask for Your divine intervention to expose and thwart every fraudulent scheme, whether it be through hacking, identity theft, or deceitful financial practices. Let the plans of the wicked be brought to nothing, and let justice prevail.
We claim the promise of Psalm 91:11-12 over our lives: *"For he will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you in all your ways. They will bear you up in their hands, so that you won’t dash your foot against a stone."* Surround us with Your heavenly host, Lord, and let no evil come near our dwelling. We also pray for those who have already fallen victim to such crimes—comfort them, restore what has been lost, and grant them peace that surpasses all understanding.
Above all, we acknowledge that our ultimate security is found in You alone. If any among us have not surrendered their lives to Jesus Christ, we urge them to do so now, for there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). Salvation is found in no one else, and it is only through Christ that we have access to the Father. If you have not confessed Jesus as Lord, we invite you to repent of your sins, believe in His death and resurrection, and receive the gift of eternal life.
We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, our Savior and Defender. Amen.
