Heavenly Father we thank and praise You that You are raising up Your people to send out the battle cry against the killing fields of the abortuaries across the country. Father, we thank You for those who have stood in prayer, and those who are doing sidewalk counseling in front of Planned Parenthoods across this country. Father continue to strengthen and energize them, protecting them in the battle they are waging.
Father we thank You for raising up people to bring forth legislation that protects the lives of ALL the unborn. Father we bring up the issues in Colorado in particular to before You this week.
*Lord, open up the doors for the message of the HUMAN LIFE AMENDMENT to go forth.
*Father God, be with Kristi Burton, protect her, keep your guardian and warring angels round about her, and a hedge of protection. Strengthen her, anoint her, give her courage and boldness Lord to stand for You and Your Truth!
*Lord, protect the Pro-Life movement and the churches, unifying them Lord, as they stand for ALL LIFE.
*Father God, let it be that this Amendment is crafted by people listening to Your leading, and able to withstand the scrutiny of the law at the highest levels. If this be so, Father, then bring forth the number of signatures needed by the deadline.
*Lord, bless the organizations that are involved in this movement in Colorado, if they are in it for the right purposes and with the right focus.
Father God, bring down the stronghold of abortion.
Lord, we thank you that there are measures being brought at the National level as well. Bless those who are working on them, giving them Your wisdom and guidance!
Lord, we come against the spirit of divisiveness that the enemy has so shrewdly and deftly used to split the Pro-Life movement. Father we ask that You will weed it out. In Jesus Name we declare it bound and cast out of the Pro-Life movement, sent to the dry places to shrivel up and die. In Jesus Name we loose a strength in faith, a unity in passion for LIFE, a bond of hearts in the same battle against the Spirit of Death, standing on Your promises Lord. You promise that whatever is "bound on earth in Jesus Name is bound in heaven and whatever is loosed on earth in Jesus Name is loosed in heaven" and we stand on that Word, Lord. You are a faithful God who honors and keeps His Word, and for this we praise You and wait expectantly. Thank You, Lord! Hallelujah! We praise and glorify Your name with every battle that is won against Planned Parenthood, and every LIFE that is saved!
"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations." (Jer 1:5)
"For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." Ps 139:13-14)
Prayer and Worship PING for the week!
FYI
In Jesus’ Holy Name, Amen!
Amen
I hope you don’t mind if I post a link here to “A Dream A Lot Like Mine” http://www.myspace.com/emmettgrayson as we each do our part in our own ways.
Amen.
Sacred Heart of Jesus we place our trust in you.
You are AWESOME! THANK YOU for the pictures!!
Emmett, feel free to post that song link on every weekly thread...the reason being that someone new may hook-up to the thread on any given week and not know about it from the previous week. It bring healing and comfort with it to anyone who is post-abortive and I believe it needs to stand with each thread. Be our guest!! No need to apologize for it, either. We are blessed by you bringing it and sharing it with us. Thank you!
Napolitano Dynamites Pro-Life Legislation
Extending her infamous veto streak against pro-life bills, Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano (D) rejected two that would have criminalized perpetrators of partial-birth abortion and provided rules for judicial bypass for abortions carried out on minors. Napolitano has been a long-time advocate of Planned Parenthood, and her record confirms it. In the last couple of years, Napolitano has vetoed bills on parental consent, fetal pain, abortion waiting periods, and a ban on government-funded abortion coverage. But that hasn't stopped a persistent pro-life majority in the state legislature from sending principled policies her way. In fact, another bill that would bar nurse practitioners from performing abortions will likely hit the Governor's desk this session. The New Mexico legislature is standing up for women and their health as mothers; Gov. Napolitano is standing up for a lethal industry.
Father God, protect our brothers and sisters who persist against a Governor who does not stand for LIFE. Give them courage, strength, energy, and boldness to keep on fighting the good fight, Lord! Hear their cries, and either turn the heart of the Governor or replace the Governor with one who is Pro-Life, Father. Bless those who are in the battle there, cause Your face to shine upon them and let them feel and know Your presence, Lord. Cause them to know You hear and they are fighting Your battle. Bring them reinforcements when they become weary, and refresh them again. Father God, bless them with a positive outcome in their state, in Jesus Name, Amen!
Your welcome.
