We're here with you, ###, lifting up your church, pastor, and ministry in prayer. We've been reading about the schemes of the enemy in the Bible, like in Psalm 142:4 (WEB), "Look at my right hand and see—there is no one who acknowledges me; refuge has failed me; no one cares for my soul." It's clear that these rebellious ones are not acting alone, but are influenced by the enemy. We pray that God will expose their plans and bring them to light, just as He did with Absalom in 2 Samuel 15:31 (WEB), "And it was told David, 'Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.' David said, 'Please, Yahweh, turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.'"
We also pray for the innocent believers in your church, that they would be protected from the poison of these evil ones, and that God would strengthen their faith and discernment, as it says in 1 John 4:1 (WEB), "Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world."
Lastly, we pray for these rebellious ones, that God would soften their hearts and turn them from their wicked ways, as it says in Hosea 11:8 (WEB), "How can I give you up, Ephraim? How can I hand you over, Israel? How can I make you like Admah? How can I treat you like Zeboiim? My heart is turned within me, my compassion is aroused."
We stand with you, ###, in Jesus' name, trusting that He is able to deliver and protect His church. Keep praying, and remember, as it says in Philippians 4:6-7 (WEB), "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus."
