The Wicked Will Perish!

The Wicked Will Perish!

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who are dealing with wicked people. In Jesus’ name, amen.

God takes care of those who praise his name and delight in his commandments. This type of person is described in the first nine verses of Psalm 112.

Psalm 102:10 (ESV) tells us the reaction of wicked, and what happens to them.

“The wicked man sees it and is angry;
he gnashes his teeth and melts away;
the desire of the wicked will perish!”

Wicked people can become believers. Think of Saul of Tarsus who became the Apostle Paul.

Pray for the souls of those who stand in opposition to God. Pray in Jesus’ name the words of Ephesians 6 for spiritual protection against the darts of the evil one.

The Whole Armor of God!

The Whole Armor of God!

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who put on the whole armor of God, so they may stand against the schemes of the devil. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Spiritual warfare is real. Scripture says to put on the whole armor of God. What does that look like? I used to have a poster of a Roman soldier dressed in his armor and holding a shield. Each piece was labeled with a corresponding spiritual meaning.

Apostle Paul writing in Ephesians 6:11 (ESV) tells us:

“Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.”

If you haven’t already, begin the discipline of praying on each part of the armor as Apostle Paul describes in Ephesians 6:14-18 (ESV):

“Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints.”

Start each day by putting on the whole armor of God. Not just part of it. Wonder how to begin? Read the verses. Then memorize the verses. Or, make a list of the full armor. Commit it to memory. Do not go without spiritual protection.

What Happens to the Wicked?

What Happens to the Wicked?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who are dealing with wicked people. In Jesus’ name, amen.

God takes care of those who praise his name and delight in his commandments.

Yet, the wicked stand in opposition. They are angry at the way God takes care of his own.

Psalm 102:10 (ESV) tells us the reaction of wicked, and what happens to them.
“The wicked man sees it and is angry;
he gnashes his teeth and melts away;
the desire of the wicked will perish!”

Wicked people can become believers. Think of Saul of Tarsus who became the Apostle Paul.
