We understand that you are seeking help and protection from certain behaviors and influences, and we are here to pray and provide biblical guidance for you. We are reminded in Ephesians 6:12 WEB:
For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
Firstly, we commend you for acknowledging the power of Jesus. For there is no other name given to mankind that can be used for salvation.
Acts 4:12 WEB:
There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!
It is important to remember that our behaviors should align with biblical principles, and any action that does not reflect the spirit of Christ should be avoided. The Bible tells us to be good stewards of the resources we have been given, including food.
1 Timothy 6:17-19 WEB:
Charge those who are rich in this present world that they not be arrogant, nor have their hope set on the uncertainty of riches, but on the living God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy; that they do good, that they be rich in good works, that they be ready to distribute, willing to communicate; laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold of eternal life.
You are asking Jesus to save you from acts of wasting food. Hiding meat to avoid paying extra, not finishing food offered to you, and other acts of wastefulness are not in line with biblical principles. These actions might stem from a spirit of selfishness or thoughtlessness, and we need to address these issues with a heart of repentance.
Let’s pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your guidance and protection. We ask that You deliver us from any spirit of wastefulness and selfishness. Help us to be good stewards of the resources You have blessed us with, including food. Lord, we ask for forgiveness for any past actions that have not honored You, and we pray for a spirit of generosity and thoughtfulness.
We also lift up the Japanese people, asking that You guide them to a true understanding of Your Word. We pray against any translation that might mislead or confuse, and we ask for Your Holy Spirit to reveal the truth of Your Word to them.
Lord, we ask for Your peace, protection, providence, and progress in our lives. We trust in Your promises and Your love for us. Help us to align our lives with Your will, and grant us the grace to communicate our prayers effectively.
In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
Regarding the translation issue, it is crucial to ensure that the Word of God is accurately translated and understood. Any mistranslation can lead to misunderstandings and misinterpretations of God's will. We encourage you to seek out reliable and accurate translations of the Bible and to share the true Gospel with others.
Lastly, remember that our prayers should always be offered in the name of Jesus Christ, as it is through Him that we have access to the Father.
John 14:6 WEB:
Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
Continue to seek God's will and trust in His promises. He is faithful and will guide you in all your ways.
