The Prank Army's Greatest Triumph. 

Written by Michael Keetch. 

Psalm 14:1 – “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.”

1. The Denial of God – A Tragic Folly

The Bible is clear: to deny the existence of God is the ultimate foolishness. The fool does not arrive at this conclusion through reasoned wisdom but by a corrupt heart that resists the truth. It is not merely an intellectual position but a moral rebellion, a willful rejection of the God who has made Himself known in creation, in conscience, and in Christ.

2. The Fruit of Unbelief – Corruption and Sin

A heart that denies God becomes a breeding ground for wickedness. Without God, there is no true moral foundation. As Psalm 14:1 declares, “They are corrupt, they have done abominable works.” History bears witness to the tragic consequences of a world that turns its back on its Creator. The farther one drifts from God, the deeper they sink into sin and self-deception.

3. The Call to Repentance – A Plea for the Lost

To persist in unbelief is to reject the only hope of salvation. But God, in His mercy, calls the sinner to repent and turn to Him. He has not left us in darkness but has sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to save us from our sin. “Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish” (Luke 13:3). The call is urgent—do not harden your heart. Today is the day of salvation!

4. The Promise of Salvation – Found in Christ Alone

The glorious truth of the Gospel is that even the vilest sinner can be forgiven. Christ’s blood was shed to cleanse and redeem those who turn to Him in faith. Romans 10:9 assures us: “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” Renounce unbelief, embrace the truth, and surrender to Christ.

Let's pray together. 

O Lord God Almighty, I come before You with a humbled heart, recognizing the folly of denying You. Your Word declares that only in You is there life, truth, and righteousness. I pray for those who are blinded by unbelief, that You would open their eyes and lead them to repentance. Let them see the glorious light of Christ and the salvation He offers. Convict hearts, Lord, and draw sinners unto Yourself, that they may know the joy of forgiveness and eternal life. In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.

Intention

I will boldly proclaim the truth of God’s existence and His call to salvation. I will pray for those in unbelief, that they may come to repentance and faith in Jesus Christ.

Let's pray for personal salvation.

O Lord God, I come before You with an open heart, acknowledging that I have lived in unbelief and sin. I now see the folly of denying You, the One who created me and gave me life. I confess that I have turned away from Your truth and have done what is evil in Your sight.

But today, I repent. I turn from my sin and ask for Your mercy. I believe that Jesus Christ is Your Son, that He died on the cross for my sins, and that He rose again in victory over death. Lord Jesus, I ask You to be my Savior. Wash me clean with Your precious blood, forgive my sins, and make me a new creation.

I surrender my life to You, O God. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit, that I may walk in faith and obedience. Lead me in Your truth, and help me to live for You all the days of my life. Thank You for Your grace, for Your love, and for the gift of eternal salvation. I receive it now by faith, in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
