We understand that you're going through a challenging time, struggling with an impulse to speak untruths and feeling overwhelmed by fear and insecurity. First, we want to remind you that God is always with you, and He understands your struggles. Returning to God's Word, we read, It is not an enemy who taunts me I could bear that. It is not my adversary who deals insolently with me I could hide from him. But it is you, a man my equal, my companion and my familiar friend. We took sweet counsel together. We walked in God's house with the throng.
Let death come suddenly on them. Let them go down alive into Sheol. For wickedness is in their dwelling, in the midst of them.
As for me, I will call on God. Yahweh will save me. Evening, morning, and at noon, I will cry out in distress. He will hear my voice.
Is is always good to examine our hearts and confess our sins to God.
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
We should also remember James 1:26 which tells us, If any among you thinks himself to be religious while he doesn't bridle his tongue, but deceives his heart, this man's religion is worthless.
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, lifting up our fellow believer in their time of need. Lord, they feel overwhelmed by fear and insecurity, and this has led them to speak untruths. We ask for Your forgiveness and Your strength to overcome this impulse.
Help them, Lord, to bridle their tongue and to speak only the truth in love. Remove the spirit of fear and replace it with a spirit of power, of love, and of sound mind, as Your Word promises in 2 Timothy 1:7.
Guide them back to You, Jesus and the Bible. We do not want to be deceived by fear, but to trust in You and in Jesus.
In Jesus' name, we pray for strength and self-control. Help them to remain silent rather than speaking lies. Fill their heart with Your peace and Your love, and help them to see their worth through Your eyes.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Remember, it is only by the name of Jesus that we can be saved. By believing in Jesus that we can call on God.
