We join with you in lifting up this urgent cry against the wickedness of fraud and theft, which are not only crimes against man but grievous sins before our Holy God. The Scriptures warn us that thieves will not inherit the Kingdom of God (1 Corinthians 6:9-10), and we know that Satan is the father of lies and the accuser who seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10). Yet our God is greater, and He has given us authority through the name of Jesus to stand against these evil works.
The Lord is a strong tower for the righteous, and we take refuge in Him, knowing that no weapon formed against us shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). The enemy may plot in secret, but the Lord exposes the deeds of darkness (Ephesians 5:11). We declare that every fraudulent scheme—every stolen password, every hacked account, every attempt to exploit God’s people—will be uncovered and brought to nothing. The Lord sees the hidden things, and He will repay those who practice such wickedness (Psalm 90:8).
We also pray for those who are perpetrating these crimes. Father, if there are any among them who do not know You, we ask that You would convict their hearts by Your Holy Spirit. Turn them from their evil ways, that they may repent and find forgiveness in Christ. For those who are willfully rebellious, we pray that their hands would be stayed, their plans frustrated, and that justice would be served according to Your perfect will.
To those who have been victimized, we remind you that the Lord is your vindicator. Do not fear, for He goes before you and will fight for you (Deuteronomy 1:30). Trust in Him, and do not let anxiety rule your heart. Instead, cast your cares upon Him, for He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7). Take practical steps to secure your accounts, seek wisdom in protecting your information, and walk in the peace that comes from knowing God is your protector.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this battle against the forces of fraud and theft. You are the God who sees all things, and nothing is hidden from Your sight. We ask that You expose every hidden scheme of the enemy. Frustrate the plans of those who seek to steal and deceive. Surround Your people with Your heavenly angels, creating a hedge of protection that no evil can penetrate. Give wisdom to those who have been targeted, that they may take the necessary steps to secure what is theirs and walk in Your peace.
For those who are committing these acts, we pray for conviction. If they do not know You, Lord, draw them to repentance. If they are hardened in their sin, bring their deeds to light and let justice prevail. We declare that no weapon formed against Your children will prosper, and every tongue that rises against us in judgment, You shall condemn.
Father, we thank You that You are our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). We trust in You, knowing that You will never leave us nor forsake us. Strengthen our faith, and let Your peace guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. We ask all these things in the powerful and holy name of Jesus, our Savior and Redeemer. Amen.
