50 Fire Prayer Points Against Every Spirit Of Spiritual Gossip And Backbiting
Bible Exhortation:
Beloved, let us not speak evil of one another. For it is written, “Whoever speaks evil of his brother or judges his brother, speaks evil of the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge.”1 (James 4:11, NKJV). Let our words be seasoned with grace, building one another up rather than tearing down. Let us be mindful of the power of our tongues and use them to speak life and encouragement.
Bible Confession:
Heavenly Father, I confess that at times I have allowed my tongue to be used for gossip and backbiting. I have not always spoken words that edify and build up those around me. I acknowledge this sin before you and ask for your forgiveness. Cleanse my heart and my lips, Lord. Help me to be a person of integrity whose words are true, kind, and filled with your love. I choose today to speak life and to honor others with my words. In the name of Jesus, Amen.
Bible Verse:
“Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart2 grace to the hearers.” (Ephesians 4:29,3 NKJV)
Praise and Worship:
Let’s lift our voices in praise:
“Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!
Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee;
Holy, holy, holy! Merciful and mighty!
God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!”4
“What a beautiful Name it is, what a beautiful Name it is
The Name of Jesus Christ my King
What a beautiful Name it is, nothing compares to5 it
What a beautiful Name, the Name of Jesus.”
