Perhaps I’d be concerned about this if I knew these “religions” were true prayer warriors, that knew how to shake the threshold of heaven.

Their prayers tend to consist of what Jesus called, “much speaking”, prayer wheels and supplications to “god, whomever she might be”. If they have a few minutes here or there. Perhaps some nice thoughts. They aren’t really concerned with God, or spending time wrapped in His presence or Word, more with “social justice”.

God doesn’t hear children of wrath.

Spot on!

This (bogus) effort by this California Planned Parenthood affiliate group, is sham and hypocrisy. Their prayers will not reach the Triune God.

I am reminded of Shakespeare’s, “Hamlet.” Hamlet’s father was the king until his brother (Hamlet’s uncle) murdered him to take over the Throne. Starkly reminded and haunted of his murderous sin, the king (Hamlet’s uncle) rushed into his chamber and attempted to pray. As he looked up, he (pathetically and, correctly) exclaimed:

“.....My words fly up, my thoughts remain below; words without thoughts, never to heaven go.” Need it be said that the usurping king in Shakespeare’s Hamlet could not legitimately offer true prayer because he had blood on his hands and did not repent of his treacherous actions, against God’s Commandments and against his fellowman?

In short - this Planned Parenthood group is abusing the privilege of prayer, and increasing God’s loathsome displeasure of them [Psalm 7:8-17 - especially verse, 11]
