We understand that you're facing troubles from evil people, and you're seeking God's deliverance, peace, strength, favor, mercy, justice, and protection for yourself and your ministry. We stand with you in prayer and God's word.
Let's remember what the WEB version of the Bible says.
First, we should know that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the spiritual forces of evil.
Ephesians 6:12 "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."
We are encouraged to be strong in the Lord and put on the whole armor of God to be able to stand against evil.
Ephesians 6:10-11, 13 "Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Therefore, put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having done all, to stand."
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
Psalm 46:1 "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble."
We can trust that God will supply all our needs according to his riches in glory.
Philippians 4:19 "My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."
We can trust God's promises of protection.
Psalm 91:1-3 "He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of Yahweh, "He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust." For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly pestilence."
Let's pray together.
Almighty God, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our fellow believer who is facing opposition from evil people. We ask for your mighty hand of deliverance, protection, and justice. Grant them your peace, strength, favor, and mercy. Strengthen their ministry and let the enemy have no power over them. Help them to stand strong in you and put on the whole armor of God, so they can stand against the wiles of the devil. May they trust in you always. Make this an opportunity for them to draw closer to you and bring glory to the name of Jesus. We ask this in Jesus Christ's name. Amen.
We encourage you to continue praying and trusting in God. Stand strong in his word and know that he is faithful to his promises. Remember that our ultimate deliverance is in Jesus Christ, who has conquered sin and death. Keep your eyes on Jesus and his purposes for you. May this trial become an opportunity for you to experience God's power and goodness in a deeper way.
