I Prayed have prayed
Lord, we lift up every heart and mind in America. We ask You to show people the humanity of the unborn, so that they may feel the same way about abortion that You do.

While abortion rates fell in some places after the overturn of Roe, it seems the ruling did not have the effect conservatives hoped for. This is a helpful reminder that only God, not a law or a court decision, can mend our broken, sinful culture.

From Neoscope. If the goal of striking down Roe v. Wade was to decrease the number of abortions, the move has backfired spectacularly.

Who is praying on the wall?

 

Why? Because the number of American women getting abortions has actually increased since the right to abortion was overturned by the US Supreme Court in June 2022, according to new research.

Specifically, according to the WeCount study published this month by the Society of Family Planning, the number of abortions nationwide has risen significantly from 86,830 at the time of the reversal to just shy of 100,000 in March 2024.

The increase, the organization says, is largely due to doctors in more abortion-friendly states providing abortion pills to patients in more restrictive states via telehealth care. …

The report, which analyzed data from April 2022 to March 2024, found that abortions crested over 100,000 in January this year — the first time ever since WeCount started measuring abortion volume and data in 2022 when the US Supreme Court overturned the nationwide right to abortion …

Abortion is no more than a modern day sacrifice such as the Old Testament witnessed.

Aid Access. Plan C, and ULTRAVIOLET mail abortion pills to anyone freely in any state regardless of bans. The cost is only about $150 per abortion pill kit and is completely anonymous.
Pray to end these services.

I think we all know that morality cannot be legislated. But that does not mean that because some will choose to disobey a law, that we should not establish it. That is irrational. As I said in a previous comment, if we only have laws that people will obey, then that would be a short list indeed – in fact, nonexistent. Adam and Eve only had one and still disobeyed it. It is the duty of governments to rule righteously, and that can only happen when a nation’s laws are based on His laws. Blessed is that nation whose God is YHVH.
At the same time, we do pray for heart and mind change for all people. We do pray for those who need help and righteous counsel to choose life for their babies – that they will receive it. We do pray that life would be valued – all life!

Loss of Innocents
Psalms 106:38 NLT
They shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters. By sacrificing them to the idols of Canaan, they polluted the land with murder.

The innocent were never given a choice
No one cared to listen for their voice
They were asked to pay the ultimate price
To satisfy the people’s desire for rights

The blood that was spilled polluted the land
The desire for more rose up and was fanned
It didn’t take long for the blood to cry out
Ears had closed, they could not hear the shouts

The land began to cry out to the Lord
No cry for the innocent was ever ignored
Soaked with their blood the earth rebelled
From man it’s goodness it withheld

The lust of evil couldn’t be quenched
Now in leaders hearts it’s entrenched
The rights of the womb are seen as greater
Caring little for God’s grief as Creator

The value of life began to decline
The fear of the Lord was undermined
Whether a daughter or son on the way
Millions were told that they couldn’t stay

Prayer warriors began to cry out for the souls
The beauty and value of the babies extolled
Boldly standing on behalf of the child
All the lies of the wicked were bravely reviled

Brave men and women marched out for life
Against evil plans they have had to fight
Though death wants to extend its reach
Against it prayers have been unleashed

Now evil has plans to steal our kids
With lies and confusion their future is hid
God called His saints to take a bold stand
To save generations all over our land

For this cause all must kneel and pray
Let us proclaim that life’s here to stay
For healing of hearts and cleansing the ground
Throughout earth our prayers must resound

    The problem is, women and babies have died since the fall of Roe.
    Abortions have only increased as well.
    The fall of Roe doomed conservatives!
    Bad mistake!

The end of Roe unfortunately dovetailed with a downturn in the economy, thousands of illegals and human traffickers across the border and a relentless campaign by leftists to scare women into thinking all their rights will be taken away. Demonic things we need to pray against. Plus so many women and families are struggling to pay their bills. And my state has not taken a strong stand against it (yet). Praying they will.

    The fall of Roe divided our churches and caused a mass exodus in our churches. IT destroyed families.
    I am PRO.CHOICE because I am.PRO FREEDOM.&.PRO LOVE.
    I am not forced birth anymore.
    We got it wrong folks! Admit it!

      Thank you, Jacee. This is a prayer website so maybe we should look at how Jesus taught us to pray. See Luke 18:9-14, Jesus says we should pray, not saying, ‘thank God, I’m not like those other people….’
      But with humility. But how many times do you see in the comments here everyone so self assured that we are right, we have the only way, our views are the only ones that are correct, everyone else is evil. ‘Thank God I’m not one of those evil democrats…’ Instead of thinking that maybe, a lot of people agree that the number of abortions should be reduced but laws are not the only way to reduce abortion or the most effective way to reduce abortion. As the article said, abortions have gone up since Roe v Wade is over. We are so quick to label anyone who disagrees on abortion as evil. But Jesus told stories like the parable of the Good Samaritan where the heroes were those that everyone else labeled as evil. I mean, this is a Christian web site, it is ok for me to quote Jesus, isn’t it?

      Psalm 139 says it quite clear. A baby is a human at conception. No amount of mind aerobics and excuses will ever change that. These are GOD’s Words! If anyone wants to argue this? You’re playing God. Abortion is MURDER…PERIOD!

For You formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb… My frame was not hidden from you when I was being made in secret.. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, EVERY ONE OF THEM, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there were none of them… Jeremiah 139:13-18

God, we ask, that You would remove the veil from the eyes of pregnant mothers…. that they would see truth. Send people to come alongside these mama’s… We repent and cry out to You, O God. Heal our land 🙏

It took many years to outlaw sanctioned slavery around the world. While slavery still exists in the dark shadows of an enlightened world, God-inspired people know it is a sin. I pray that the acceptance of abortion meets the same fate.

Here in Vermont it is Republican Primaries today. Governor Scott has no competition. He is a good governor, but he is for abortion. Please pray with me that God will open his eyes and reveal to him the truth. Even save his soul and give him power on the side of the right to the glory of God.

Lord, you know us in the womb. YOU are the GOD of LIFE all life comes from you. Forgive these murderous doctors and change their hearts. Forgive the women, who don’t realize how blessed they are to carry another life. Forgive us your people for not crying out to you. Help Us Dear Lord, We cry out for the unborn. You are our only hope. Let Justice run down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream!
