Are you a Christian? Do you believe in God and the Bible? If so, you don’t have to look far to find examples of how God views wickedness.
Wickedness is an affront to God and an offense to his righteousness. It was his own Son who died for our sins, so we can be forgiven if we repent and accept him as Lord. Wickedness is something that is opposed to God’s nature, and he will not allow it to stand in his presence.
Bible Verses About Wicked Rulers
“The Spirit of truth” is at work inside us, appealing with us to see the truth (John 14:17, 16:13; Rom. 8:26)—not simply the presence and activity of God, but also the reality of our own selves and experiences. The things God is saying or doing in our waking life often get brought to our attention through dreams.
This prayer instruction has important implications for decoding our dreams. Even while our rational brains are busy with other things, the Spirit of Jesus Christ is always interceding on our behalf in prayer. But we have to stop thinking for a while in order to sleep. This makes more room in our heads for the Holy Spirit to plant ideas, images, and feelings.
