Is It Okay to Pray Bad Things Over Your Enemies? (The Imprecatory Psalms)

The Psalms contain some of the most beautiful prayers in the Bible—but also some of the most disturbing ones. What are Christians supposed to do with prayers that ask God to judge, curse, or even destroy enemies? Are we supposed to pray those words too? In this video, I respond to a student’s honest question about imprecatory psalms and walk through three key biblical insights: • Why the psalmists bring their anger to God instead of taking justice into their own hands • Why honesty before God matters—especially when our thoughts are dark • Why cursing others is not the goal of Christian prayer, even if those thoughts exist 0:00 The Problem With Prayers That Curse Enemies 0:24 A Student’s Honest Question 0:41 What “Imprecate” Means 0:57 Psalm 69, 35, & 109 — Why These Feel So Problematic 3:19 Point 1: Vengeance Is God’s, Not Ours 4:26 Point 2: God Already Knows Our Dark Thoughts 6:12 Point 3: Honesty Is Not the Same as Endorsing 7:19 Final Encouragement: Be Honest and Let God Transform You Scripture reminds us that God already knows what’s in our hearts. Like Job, we don’t need to pretend before Him. But at the same time, Jesus calls us to something higher—to forgiveness, love for enemies, and inner transformation by the Holy Spirit. The goal isn’t to sanitize our prayers. The goal is to be real with God and let Him change us from the inside out. 📖 Topics covered: Imprecatory Psalms Anger and prayer Judgment vs. vengeance Honesty before God Becoming more like Jesus If you’ve ever struggled with the darker parts of the Bible—or your own heart—this one’s for you. 👍 Like, subscribe, and share if this helped clarify a difficult passage. #BibleStudy #Psalms #ImprecatoryPsalms #ChristianTheology #BibleQuestions #ChristianTeaching #PrayerLife #HardBiblePassages #JesusAndJustice #AngerAndFaith #HonestPrayer #ChristianGrowth #FaithAndDoubt #BiblicalWorldview #JustSeals
