Prayer request for the abortion ban in South Dakota, and the election in general.

[redgolum]

On November 7, this nation will have a national election. Along with the candidates for federal and local offices, there is a ballot measure in South Dakota that will ban abortion in most cases.

Most of us here on FR will not be voting in South Dakota. But we can pray that the good citizens will cast the vote that will begin the end of the practice of infanticide.

This is a prayer request. My wife and I will be praying on the seventh, and would this is something that we all need to pray for. My bride’s mom is very active in the pro life movement in South Dakota, and would welcome our prayers.

Please pray and fast on Tuesday November 7 for this to be the beginning of the end of abortion

[redgolum]

Forgive me for not being eloquent. Please pray that this will pass.

I asked CPFL about something like this earlier, and he agreed to ping the list. Wagglebee, perhaps this would fit also.

This vote is a big one. Please pray for the people of South Dakota, that they may be the first to turn their face back toward God.

A great prayer for life is urgently needed, a prayer which will rise up throughout the world. Through special initiatives and in daily prayer, may an impassioned plea rise to God, the Creator and lover of life, from every Christian community, from every group and association, from every family and from the heart of every believer.”

 – Pope John Paul II, The Gospel of Life (Evangelium Vitae), n. 100.

Dear Jim and Mods,

If we post Prayer threads for fellow Freepers in News/Activism, then certainly a Prayer Thread for our beloved Country is in line there also.

Please consider moving this thread to News/Activism as it seems more appropriate there.

Thanks,

Kevin

Definitely appropriate, redgolum. No eloquence needed.

Prayer and fasting, as was practiced at times by our founding fathers, is certainly, certainly appropriate. Let all Christian men and women unite as such on that sober day.

[Lexinom]

Thank you Kevin. Your request heartily seconded.

Very rare, joyful and urgent prayer and fasting ping to the Chambers List!

[.30Carbine]

Thank you so much for this thread!

The battle in Missouri is of national importance as well, and I would submit this for targeted prayer.

In Vermont Bernie Sanders(Socialist) is running for Jeffords vacated Senate seat, and Leaky Leahy(Traitor) appears sure to be voted back in. Oh, FReepers and Freedom Fighters, please pray that Our Gracious, Forgiving, Sovereign God will remove these unrighteous leaders from our Senate chambers and from the very important committee positions!

"If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land."
~2 Chronicles 7:14

Almighty God, we are taking You at Your Word; Thou Art Faithful!

[Mad Dawg]

Forgive us, Lord, and turn our hearts back to you. Deliver us from slaughter and perversion and strengthen us to do your will.
