We come before the throne of grace with heavy hearts, lifting up the grave matter of fraud and theft that plagues so many in this fallen world. The schemes of the enemy are indeed cunning, as he seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10). We stand firmly on the truth that our Heavenly Father is a God of justice, and we cry out for His intervention against those who misuse technology and deceit to exploit others.
Father, we ask that You expose every hidden work of darkness. Let no fraudulent account remain concealed, and let no thief prosper from their wickedness. Your Word declares, *"The LORD works righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed"* (Psalm 103:6). We trust in Your perfect justice, knowing that You see every secret thing and will bring it to light (Luke 8:17). We pray for divine protection over identities, finances, and personal information, that no weapon formed against Your children shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17).
We also recognize that the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil (1 Timothy 6:10), and we rebuke the greed that drives these crimes. May those who engage in such deception be convicted by the Holy Spirit, leading them to repentance and transformation. We declare that their schemes will be thwarted, and their plans will be turned back upon them (Psalm 7:15-16).
Lord, we ask that You surround Your people with Your holy angels, as You have promised to command them concerning us to guard us in all our ways (Psalm 91:11). Let every attempt of the enemy to breach security, manipulate systems, or exploit the vulnerable be rendered powerless. Strengthen those who work in cybersecurity, law enforcement, and financial institutions to stand against these attacks with wisdom and integrity.
We also pray for those who have already been victimized by fraud and theft. Comfort them in their distress, restore what has been lost, and heal any feelings of violation or fear. Remind them that You are their refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). May they find peace in Your sovereignty, knowing that You work all things together for the good of those who love You (Romans 8:28).
Father, we thank You that in Jesus Christ, we have victory over every scheme of the enemy. We declare that no weapon formed against us shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against us in judgment, we condemn (Isaiah 54:17). We stand firm in the authority of Jesus' name, knowing that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth (Philippians 2:10). We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, our Savior and Deliverer. Amen.
