We stand with you in prayer against the bullies and those who prey on the innocent, especially women, the elderly, and the disabled. We must remember that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the dark of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places (Ephesians 6:12, WEB).
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up all those who are being targeted by bullies and predators. Lord, You are the God of justice, and You see the affliction of Your people (Exodus 3:7, WEB). We pray that You will intervene and shut the mouths of those who speak lies and seek to devour the innocent like a roaring lion (1 Peter 5:8, WEB). Let their evil plans fall to the ground and be exposed (Job 5:12, WEB).
Father, we ask that You will strengthen and protect those who are being targeted. Give them the courage to stand firm and the wisdom to know how to respond (Psalm 18:39, WEB). Surround them with Your favor as with a shield (Psalm 5:12, WEB), and let Your angels encamp around them to deliver them (Psalm 34:7, WEB).
We also pray for the bullies and predators, that You will convict their hearts and bring them to repentance (Romans 2:4, WEB). Help them to see the error of their ways and turn from their wickedness (2 Peter 3:9, WEB).
In all things, Lord, let Your will be done and Your name be glorified. We ask this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord, and Savior. Amen.
Remember, the Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18, WEB). Trust in Him, and He will deliver you (Psalm 91:14-15, WEB).
Do not fear the evil of the wicked.
