We join with you in lifting this urgent cry for justice and protection before the Lord, for we know that He is a God of righteousness who sees all wickedness and will bring every hidden deed into the light. The fraud and theft you describe are not merely crimes against man but acts of rebellion against God Himself, who commands in Exodus 20:15, *"You shall not steal."* And in Proverbs 11:1, we are reminded, *"The Lord detests dishonest scales, but accurate weights find favor with him."* Those who engage in such deceitful schemes are walking in the counsel of the wicked, and unless they repent, they will face the judgment of a holy God. Yet even now, we pray that the Lord would convict their hearts, that they may turn from their sin and seek His mercy before it is too late.
The enemy seeks to devour through fear, confusion, and financial harm, but we stand firm on the promise of Psalm 91:9-11, *"Because you have made the Lord your refuge, and the Most High your dwelling place, no evil shall happen to you, neither shall any plague come near your dwelling. For he will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you in all your ways."* We declare this protection over you and all who are being targeted by these evil acts. The Lord is not unaware of your suffering—He collects every tear in His bottle (Psalm 56:8) and will vindicate His people in His perfect timing.
However, we must also remind you that while we pray for divine intervention, we are called to act with wisdom and diligence. Jesus Himself told His disciples in Matthew 10:16, *"Behold, I send you out as sheep among wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents, and harmless as doves."* This means taking practical steps to secure your accounts, monitor your finances, and report these crimes to the proper authorities, trusting that God works through both prayer and the lawful means He has established. Do not let fear paralyze you, but take action in faith, knowing that *"God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control"* (2 Timothy 1:7).
We also notice that while you invoked the name of Jesus at the end of your prayer, the majority of your plea was directed to "Father God" without explicitly acknowledging that it is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to the Father. Jesus Himself said in John 14:6, *"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."* And in John 16:23, He tells us, *"Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you."* It is not our own righteousness or even our desperate pleas that move the hand of God—it is the blood of Jesus that grants us audience before the throne of grace. Let us always approach the Father *in the name of Jesus*, for there is no other name under heaven by which we are saved (Acts 4:12). If you have not yet surrendered your life to Christ as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so today, for apart from Him, there is no true protection or hope.
Now, let us pray together over this situation:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Redeemer. We lift up our brother/sister who is crying out for Your justice and protection against the fraud and theft that seeks to harm them and many others. Lord, You are a God who sees all things—nothing is hidden from Your sight. We ask that You expose every wicked scheme, that You frustrate the plans of the enemy, and that You bring swift conviction upon those who are stealing and deceiving. Let their hands be stayed, their access revoked, and their hearts pierced with the weight of their sin. May they encounter the fear of the Lord and turn to You in repentance before facing eternal judgment.
Father, we ask for Your divine protection to surround our brother/sister and all who are being targeted. Dispatch Your warrior angels to guard their finances, their identities, and their peace. Let no weapon formed against them prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and let every tongue that rises against them in judgment be condemned. Restore what has been stolen, Lord, for You are a God of restoration and justice. Give them wisdom to navigate this season—show them what steps to take, whom to contact, and how to secure what is theirs. Let them walk in discernment and not in fear, for You have not given them a spirit of fear but of power, love, and a sound mind.
We also pray for those who are perpetrating these crimes. Lord, if they do not know You, reveal Yourself to them in a way they cannot ignore. Let them see the error of their ways and the destruction that lies ahead if they continue in sin. Soften their hearts to receive Your forgiveness and grace, that they may turn from their wickedness and find salvation in Christ alone.
Finally, Father, we thank You that You are our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). We trust in Your sovereignty, even in this storm. May Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard the hearts and minds of Your people in Christ Jesus. We ask all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus, our Savior and King. Amen.
Stand firm in faith, dear one. The Lord is your defender, and He will not allow the enemy to ultimately prevail. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, take practical steps in wisdom, and trust that He is working all things together for your good (Romans 8:28). If you need further guidance or prayer, do not hesitate to reach out. We are here to stand with you in the truth of God’s Word.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have. God bless me to prosper, walk in excellent health, and never stop growing in the love, grace, and knowledge of Christ Jesus. God bless me to know You in truth, fall in love with You with all my heart, mind, soul, body, and strength and never fall out of love with You. Bless me to have an ever growing closer stronger, more intimate relationship with You. Bless me with the love, desire, strength, and the spirit of obedience to always delight myself in You, seek first Your kingdom, Your righteousness, and to always respect and obey You. Bless me to trust You with all my heart, acknowledge You in all my ways, and lean not to my own understanding.
