Main Text: Psalm 56:5
“Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil. They gather themselves together, they hide, they mark my steps, when they lie in wait for my soul.” (Psalm 56:5, KJV)

Description: God has the power to nullify every false report, accusation, and slander, ensuring His children remain vindicated and honoured before men and angels.

INTRODUCTION:
Evil reports are false statements, slanders, or accusations designed to tarnish a person’s reputation, block destiny, or create fear. In every generation, the enemy employs individuals, circumstances, or demonic forces to spread lies that seek to destabilise the lives of God’s children. These reports may come from friends, colleagues, neighbours, or even family members, but they are all ultimately instruments of the enemy.

Yet, the Bible assures us that God Himself is the ultimate judge and protector of His people. Every evil report raised against His servants can be cancelled, nullified, and turned to their glory. His justice ensures that lies, rumours, and false accusations do not determine your destiny or limit God’s plans for your life.

This message reveals God’s ability to defend, vindicate, and elevate His children in the face of slander and deceit. When God cancels an evil report, the truth prevails, and the enemy’s plans are frustrated. Your reputation, ministry, and destiny remain secure in His hands.

1. THE NATURE OF EVIL REPORTS
Evil reports are deliberate attempts to manipulate perception and obstruct destiny.

a) They are rooted in jealousy and envy (Proverbs 27:4)
Envious hearts use falsehood to undermine those whom God blesses.

b) They are designed to intimidate and manipulate (Psalm 56:5)
Evil reports seek to create fear, doubt, or hesitation in the life of the victim.

c) They often accompany spiritual attacks (Jeremiah 1:10)
Behind false words are strategies of the enemy aimed at blocking God’s plans.

d) They attempt to destroy credibility and relationships (Proverbs 6:16–19)
Slander can damage reputations, break trust, and cause division.

Biblical Example: Joseph faced evil reports and false accusations from his brothers and Potiphar’s wife, yet God vindicated him and elevated him above all opposition (Genesis 37:18-36; 39:1-6).

2. GOD’S PROMISE TO CANCEL EVIL REPORTS
God guarantees protection for His children against every slander.

a) No weapon formed against you shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17)
Every false report or accusation is nullified in God’s court.

b) God vindicates His servants (Psalm 34:16)
The Lord hears the cries of His people and executes justice on their behalf.

c) Truth prevails over falsehood (John 8:32)
The Word of God exposes lies and ensures that honesty and integrity endure.

d) God’s protection maintains your destiny (Jeremiah 1:10)
No evil report can derail God’s plan or purpose for your life.

Biblical Example: Daniel’s enemies tried to destroy him with false accusations regarding the king’s law, but God’s intervention preserved his life and overturned the plot (Daniel 6:4-23).

3. HOW TO POSITION YOURSELF FOR DIVINE VINDICATION
Believers must align themselves with God’s protection to cancel evil reports effectively.

a) Maintain integrity and righteousness (Proverbs 10:9)
God honours the life of the righteous, making lies powerless.

b) Engage in prayer and intercession (Psalm 109:31)
Prayer invites God’s intervention against every false accusation.

c) Declare God’s Word boldly (Isaiah 54:17)
Confessing His promises cancels the power of every evil report.

d) Forgive and release those who slander you (Matthew 5:44)
Forgiveness neutralises spiritual leverage that evil reports may have over your life.

Biblical Example: Job endured false reports and slander from his friends, yet he remained faithful, and God ultimately restored and blessed him exceedingly (Job 1-42).

4. THE RESULTS OF GOD CANCELLING EVIL REPORTS
When God intervenes, your life experiences restoration, honour, and supernatural favour.

a) Restoration of reputation (Psalm 34:16)
Lies and slanders are replaced with honour and respect.

b) Increased favour and influence (Proverbs 3:4)
Vindication attracts new opportunities and blessings.

c) Peace and confidence (Isaiah 26:3)
God’s cancellation of evil reports ensures mental and emotional stability.

d) Advancement in destiny (Romans 8:28)
No plot of the enemy can delay your God-given assignments.

Biblical Example: Esther’s position in the palace allowed God to cancel the evil report against the Jews, turning a plot of death into deliverance (Esther 4-8).

CONCLUSION:
God is a defender of His people who cancels every evil report raised against them. He turns lies into testimonies, plans of the enemy into promotion, and attacks into divine elevation. Trust Him to protect your reputation, secure your destiny, and vindicate you before men and angels alike.

Confess: “Every evil report against me is cancelled today. God fights for me and secures my honour, in Jesus’ name!”
