A prayer to ward off false prophets

Prayer Against False Prophets: Peter wrote the words to warn the church of false teachers. "They are subversive, immoral, miserly, commercialize Christianity and dishonest", explains the Bible for the study of biblical theology, "Their false teaching is destructive and will lead to their own destruction."

In their greed these teachers will exploit you with made up stories. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them and their destruction has not slept “. - 2 Peter 2: 3 There is undoubtedly a place for righteous anger at those who try to oppress and deceive others, but it is unlikely that we will ever argue with Jesus. There will continue to be false teachers and, as the Biblical Commentary explains, “not all they will be successful ".

Only God can take the tiny fragments of our broken hearts and turn them into beautiful masterpieces that bring glory and honor to His name. When we find the time to seek Jesus, we begin to see the world from his perspective. There will always be pain, injustice, deceit and death in this world. But Christ assured us not to live in fear, because he has already overcome it. As we live our lives in such a way as to bring glory and honor to His name, we will become part of the miraculous story of healing and restoration that our mighty God has promised is coming.

People will deceive… people will irritate us and make our anger boil and it will increase at such a rate that we might find ourselves looking at a shattered phone screen, thrown into anger and moan. But people will also show us the love of Christ when we need it most.

Just as surely we have enemies in this life, the Lord has placed people around us to be the arms of His embrace when we need it most.

Prayer Against False Prophets: Call on Heavenly Father

Father, today let us pray a prayer of lament. How we long for the era of false prophets to end and for you to come back and make all things new! Lord, we're so tired of injustice and those who claim you but peddle lies. We want you to right all the wrongs. We know that both false prophets and truth tellers live with shattered, earthly hearts under the curse of sin. There is no way to escape the effects of sin on this earth, but through You you have given us a way to live free in forgiveness and salvation. We pray for false prophets. Yes, as difficult as it is, we pray for them. Father, open their eyes to your truth. Soften their hearts towards

Jesus, your Son. You have created every human life. You love us all. Forgive us for our anger towards one another and guide our righteous anger to bring glory and honor to You, God. In a world that is easily offended, distracted and influenced, ground us firmly in Your Word and Your Truth, God. Shake our hearts to see and respond gracefully, with firm faith in You, alone. Jesus, you are hanging on the cross for us, everyone is a destroyed mess that only you could save. Thank you, for putting us back together and for making our hearts grow to know and love you more every day we follow you. We look forward to the day when you will repair all that has been lost, damaged, destroyed and injured. Defender of death, we long for Your return. In the name of Jesus we pray, Amen
