5 Minutes on Faith: Now is the time to embrace imprecatory prayer. #63

Psalm 5
Now is the time to embrace imprecatory prayer.

Imprecatory Prayer: “to invoke evil upon or curse” one’s enemies. Our enemies ARE NOT HUMAN BEINGS, Paul forcefully states this in:
Eph 6:12 “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”

Psalm 5 Give ear to my words, O Lord, consider my meditation. Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray. My voice shalt you hear in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto you and will look up.4 For you are not a God that takes pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with you 5 The foolish shall not stand in your sight: you hate all workers of iniquity.6 You shall destroy them that speak lies; the Lord hates the bloody and deceitful man.7 But as for me, I will come into your house in the multitude of thy mercy: and in your fear will I worship toward your holy temple.8 Lead me, O Lord, in your righteousness because of my enemies; make thy way straight before my face.9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wicked their throat is an open sepulcher; they flatter with their tongue. 10 Destroy them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against you. 11 But let all those that put their trust in you rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because You defend them: let them also that love you name be joyful in you.12 For you Lord, will bless the righteous; with favor you will surround us as with a shield.
