We understand your distress and anger over this violation, and we join you in lifting this situation before the Lord. The Bible reminds us in Romans 12:19, *"Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, 'Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.'"* While it is natural to feel outrage when wronged, we must trust in God’s justice rather than our own desires for retribution. Instead, we are called to pray for protection, wisdom, and the exposure of evil—while also praying for the salvation of those who commit such acts, for they too are lost souls in need of Christ’s redemption.
The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), but we serve a God who is greater than any scheme of darkness. Psalm 37:7-9 encourages us, *"Rest in Yahweh, and wait patiently for him. Don’t fret because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who makes wicked plots happen. Cease from anger, and forsake wrath. Don’t fret, it leads only to evildoing. For evildoers shall be cut off, but those who wait for Yahweh shall inherit the land."* Let us trust in His timing and His justice, knowing He sees all and will act righteously.
First, we urge you to take immediate practical steps to protect yourself:
- Contact your bank and credit card companies to freeze accounts and dispute fraudulent charges.
- File a report with local law enforcement and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to document the identity theft.
- Change all passwords for financial accounts, emails, and devices, using strong, unique passwords.
- Consider placing a fraud alert or credit freeze with the major credit bureaus.
- Scan your phone for malware using reputable security software and remove any suspicious apps.
Now, let us pray together over this situation:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother/sister who has been targeted by wickedness and deceit. Lord, You are a God of justice, and nothing is hidden from Your sight. We ask that You expose every dark work connected to this hacking and fraud. Bring to light the identities of those responsible, and let their evil plans be thwarted. Father, we pray for divine intervention in the financial institutions, law enforcement, and every system involved—guide them to act swiftly and wisely to restore what has been stolen and prevent further harm.
We also pray for protection over this beloved child of Yours. Guard their mind from fear and anxiety, and surround them with Your peace that surpasses understanding (Philippians 4:7). Give them wisdom in every step they take to secure their finances and personal information. Let no weapon formed against them prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and let this attack be turned into a testimony of Your faithfulness.
Lord, we do not pray for vengeance, but we ask that You deal with these evildoers according to Your righteous judgment. Soften their hearts, that they may repent and turn to You before it is too late. Let them face the consequences of their actions, but more than that, let them encounter the convicting power of the Holy Spirit. For You take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but desire that they turn from their ways and live (Ezekiel 33:11).
Father, we rebuke the spirit of theft, deception, and chaos in the name of Jesus. We declare that no scheme of the enemy will prevail against Your child, for greater is He who is in them than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4). Restore what has been taken, Lord, and let this situation be used for Your glory—whether through justice, restoration, or the salvation of souls.
We thank You, Father, for hearing our prayers. We trust in Your sovereignty and Your perfect timing. May Your will be done in this situation, and may Your name be praised through it all. In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
Finally, we encourage you to meditate on Psalm 91, which reminds us of God’s protection over His children. *"He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of Yahweh, 'He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust.'"* (Psalm 91:1-2). Cling to His promises, and do not let fear take root. If this situation has left you feeling spiritually shaken, we also encourage you to examine your heart and ensure you are walking closely with the Lord. Trials often reveal where our trust truly lies—let this be an opportunity to draw nearer to Him.
If you have not already, we urge you to surrender this burden entirely to Jesus. He alone is our righteous Judge and our Protector. Keep us updated on how we may continue to pray for you.
