I Prayed have prayed
Lord, protect our children from this harmful propaganda. Give us wisdom and discernment to help battle this manipulative agenda all the while loving those that have been taken captive.

Bert and Ernie may not be a same-sex couple, but the long-running children’s franchise Sesame Street is about to get an infusion of LGBT “vibes” with an upcoming guest appearance by actor and LGBT activist Billy Porter.

Porter, best known as Pray Tell in the FX’s LGBT ballroom drama Pose and for wearing extravagant dresses, will appear during the 51st season of the beloved children’s show, according to Sesame Street’s official Facebook page.

“Billy Porter bringing those fierce vibes to Sesame Street,” the post declares, accompanied by photos of Porter on the classic set, wearing a tuxedo gown.

Comments on the post were largely positive, though some readers expressed concern.

“That is pushing [too] much at little children, it makes no sense, kids have [too] much on their little plates as it is,” one said. “Why add more?”

“Sesame Street is for children. And diversity should be taught at a child appropriate level. A man in a dress is not child appropriate, in fact, it can be confusing,” another argued. “While striving to teach to ‘be yourself’ you’re teaching boys who are masculine that it’s not ok for them to be masculine.”

“As though our children are not confused enough. What is your agenda?” another asked. “Unbelievable. So disappointing.”

This isn’t the first time Sesame Street has promoted LGBT themes. In 2017, it tweeted a “rainbow” of multicolored Muppets for Pride Month with the declaration, “Sesame Street is proud to support families of all shapes, sizes, and colors.” Later that year, its song “Anyone Can Play” purported to smash gender norms for children’s toys and costumes, including the lyrics “some boys like to play dolls” while the male character Grover is seen in a purple dress.

Last year, Porter prefaced President Donald Trump’s annual State of the Union Address with his own “LGBT State of the Union,” during which he claimed “our rights are under threat and the sanctity of identities is in peril.”

Father God, nothing is impossible for you so I pray You would bring to zero this evil message of transgender that has become the newest lie of satan thrust on our innocent children and foolish adults at this time in history!

Father, We repent for the state of our nation and world, for the rebellious spirit of our apostasy. We take back our children. You have proclaimed: “I will pour out My Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions (Joel‬ ‭2:28 ‭NIV)‬‬. This is why our children have been so bombarded with evil because the devil is trying to stop Your promises and blessings from being fulfilled. But we who are washed in the blood of the Lamb, yield the sword of Spirit of Truth, Righteousness, and Holiness, and we slay the forces of darkness, breaking down the strongholds, exposing their agenda, and crushing the heads of all the financiers and promoters of evil. We decree that their coffers are drained and their influence is completely withered and extinguished, and their projects and plans are immediately disrupted, stopped, and nullified. We open the Windows of Heaven for the Holy Spirit to pour down His Mighty power to fall upon and fill our young adults, youth, and children’s hearts with knowledge of Your Truth that we are created as male and female in Your image to prophesy to America and the world to obey Your commands, embrace Jesus, Son of God, slain for the forgiveness of our sins, and so fulfill their calling. We claim Your promises of dreams and visions so that we as parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, can mentor and guide our children to You for the protection of their hearts and blessings of eternal life. Amen!

    Amen, Alma I agree with your prayer. May our children rise up and thank The Almighty for the gender they received in the hidden place of their mother’s womb!
