Today, we are repenting for our nation, and we're praying against abortion. We are repenting for the daily sacrifice that our nation makes to molech. We are praying for those who are considering abortion, those pressuring them, and those performing and assisting in the abortions.
Proverbs 24:11-12 NLT - "Rescue those who are unjustly sentenced to die; save them as they stagger to their death. Don't excuse yourself by saying, "Look, we didn't know." For God understands all hearts, and he sees you. He who guards your soul knows you knew. He will repay all people as their actions deserve."
Jeremiah 1:5 NLT - "I knew you before I formed you in your mother's womb. Before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as my prophet to the nations."
Ephesians 2:10: NLT - "For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago."
Psalm 139: 13-16 NLT - " You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother's womb. Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it. You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed.
Deuteronomy 18:9-10 NLT - "When you enter the land the Lord your God is giving you, be very careful not to imitate the detestable customs of the nations living there. For example, never sacrifice your son or daughter as a burnt offering. And do not let your people practice fortune-telling, or use sorcery, or interpret omens, or engage in witchcraft, or cast spells, or function as mediums or psychics, or call forth the spirits of the dead. Anyone who does these things is detestable to the Lord."
Psalm 127:3 NLT - "Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a reward from him."
Our nation's children are a blessing that we have squandered. We as the Body of Christ must do better to support the cause of life...and not just the unborn, but those in all stages of life that are struggling. May we be the hands and feet of Jesus in the areas that He has assigned us!
My friend, Cheryl Krichbaum, is a post-abortive Believer that is actively changing the abortion conversation. She equips Christ-followers to reach the abortion-minded for life and for Christ without promoting political parties or politicians. To learn more, I encourage you to watch - "Abortion - Changing the Conversation Show" with Cheryl Krichbaum.
