We stand with you in prayer against the growing concern of fraud and theft that many are facing. It is comforting to know that you are calling on the name of Jesus, for it is in His name that we have access to God and it is by His name that we are saved. As you have requested, we pray for God's divine protection and for Him to thwart the plans of those who seek to exploit and harm others.
In the world we live in, fraud and theft are evident products of a sinful world. Theft is specifically forbidden in the Ten Commandments. You shall not steal.
Fraudulent activity is deceitful and an abomination to God. May they be quickly found out and may justice prevail. Oh, that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end.
We pray that God will guard us from and frustrate the schemes of people like this. We call on the Lord to surround us with His angels, protecting us from the evil in this world.
In Jesus name, let us pray. Father, we ask that You will stop the fraud and theft committed against your children. We thank you for your divine protection over our lives. We thank you for the angels you have sent to guard us from every scheme of the enemy. We thank you in Jesus Christ's name. We pray for the salvation of those committing fraud and theft. We pray that they will come to repentance. We pray that they will come to know you as their Lord and Savior. We thank you for hearing our prayer and answering it according to your will. Amen.
Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.
But you, beloved, keep building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit. Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life. Have compassion on some, making a distinction, and some, save with fear, snatching them out of the fire, hating even the clothing stained by the flesh.
He who started a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. Keep on working out your own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you both to will and to work, for his good pleasure. Do all things without murmurings and disputes, that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without defect in the middle of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you are seen as lights in the world, holding up the word of life.
