Question:<\/span> <\/p>\n

\n

Is it good to pray to God for deceitful people?<\/em><\/span> <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Yes, we should pray and here it is\u00a0what God teaches us in the Holy Scripture regarding the\u00a0prayer for those working with deceit.<\/span> <\/p>\n

Ask delivery from the\u00a0deceitful men<\/strong><\/p>\n

King David many times faced with this kind of people and prayed about them like this:<\/span> <\/p>\n

\n

Vindicate me, O God, and plead my case against an ungodly nation;\u00a0O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man!<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>(Psalm 43:1)(NASB)<\/span> <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Pray for the victims of the deceitful men<\/span> <\/strong><\/p>\n

In Psalm 10, King David describes the sly man as it follows:<\/span> <\/p>\n

\n

He says to himself, \u201cI will not be moved;\u00a0throughout all generations I will not be in adversity.\u201d\u00a0His mouth is full of curses and deceit and oppression;<\/strong>\u00a0under his tongue is mischief and wickedness.\u00a0He sits in the lurking places of the villages;\u00a0in the hiding places he kills the innocent;\u00a0his eyes stealthily watch for the unfortunate.\u00a0He lurks in a hiding place as a lion in his lair;\u00a0he lurks to catch the afflicted;\u00a0he catches the afflicted when he draws him into his net.\u00a0He crouches, he bows down,\u00a0and the unfortunate fall by his mighty ones.\u00a0He\u00a0says to himself, \u201cGod has forgotten;\u00a0He has hidden His face; He will never see it.\u201d (Psalm 10:6-11)(NASB)<\/span> <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Then he prays for the victims of the deceitful\u00a0men\u00a0this way:<\/span> <\/p>\n

\n

Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up Your hand\u00a0do not forget the afflicted.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>(Psalm 10:12)(NASB)<\/span> <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Pray for the destruction of the deceitful men\u2019s counsel<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

The\u00a0Bible tells us about Ahithophel, a very cunning man who made\u00a0evil plans against David and his house.<\/span> When \u2026<\/span> <\/p>\n

\n

someone told David, saying, \u201cAhithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom \u201d And David said, \u201cO LORD, I pray, make the counsel of Ahithophel foolishness.<\/strong>\u201c\u00a0<\/span> (II Samuel 15:31)(NASB)<\/span> <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The Apostle Paul confronted the deceitful man<\/span> <\/strong><\/p>\n

When they arrived on the island of Paphos, Paul and Barnabas were called by Sergius Paulus, the\u00a0proconsul, who had shown willingness to hear God\u2019s Word<\/span> <\/p>\n

\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/sup>But Elymas the magician (for so his name is translated) was opposing them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the faith.\u00a0But Saul, who was also known as Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, fixed his gaze on him,\u00a0and said, \u201cYou who are full of all deceit and fraud<\/strong>, you son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, will you not cease to make crooked the straight ways of the Lord?\u00a0Now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you will be blind and not see the sun for a time.\u201d And immediately a mist and a darkness fell upon him, and he went about seeking those who would lead him by the hand.\u00a0Then the proconsul believed when he saw what had happened, being amazed at the teaching of the Lord.\u00a0(Acts 13:8-12)(NASB)<\/span> <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

God deliver us from\u00a0deceitful people and give them\u00a0repentance.<\/span> <\/p>\n
