I Prayed have prayed
Reading Time: 2 minutes

Pray for the passage of this bill that protects the lives of unborn children, outlawing abortion after 20 weeks gestation because those babies are known to feel pain.

Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering toward slaughter. If you say, “But we knew nothing about this,” does not he who weighs the heart perceive it? Does not he who guards your life know it? Will he not repay everyone according to what they have done? (Pr 24:11-12)

“Of all the indefensible claims made by abortionists, there are some that apparently even they can’t bring themselves to take seriously — or argue in court.
Take, for example, the abortion lobby’s allegations against the Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, a law now being enforced in 15 states and with a national version set to come up for a vote in the House of Representatives next week.
The measure has been on the books since Nebraska passed the first such law in 2010, protecting from abortion any unborn babies old enough to feel the pain of having their arms and legs ripped from their bodies. Yet, while major abortion profiteers and their enablers verbalize opposition to the legislation year after year, they remain all talk and no lawsuit.
That’s because those who sit atop abortion’s carnage realize that there are some aspects of their trade that are so gruesome, so repulsive, that even they can’t spin them away with vague euphemisms. In their eyes, it’s better to keep such matters hidden in darkness.
That’s why the Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, developed by the National Right to Life Committee, presents problems for the abortion industry — it makes facing the reality of abortion unavoidable. If the law were brought into court, two inescapable facts would come to the public’s attention: that aborted babies are people with arms, legs, and faces, not ‘clumps of cells’; and that these children suffer horrible pain when their appendages are wrenched from their bodies. . . .” (Excerpted from Washington Examiner, commentary by Father Frank Pavone about H.R. 36.)

Thank you Lord that this bill passed in the House of Representatives.
I Pray that the Republicans in Senate will nuke the 60 vote fillerbuster rule so that it passes the Senate, for our President has promised to sign it.
Lord, may dreams of babies being torn apart visit every Senator that plans on voting no on this bill. It is you that give them life, it is you that have given life to these babies. Please rid our land of their innocent blood, and forgive us for not doing our job as salt and light as you told us to. I plead the blood of Jesus over every baby in his/her Mother’s womb. In Jesus name, Amen

At 20 weeks we have a perfectly formed human being who has been capable of feeling pain since 12-13 weeks. Lets not promote the lies of the pro abortion people who say babies in the womb don’t feel pain. Harvesting baby parts is a lucrative business and it may hurt their profit if moms are told that their baby is going to feel pain.

A baby is well formed way before 20 weeks:

AT 8 weeks in the womb:
Your baby has eyelids. They’re translucent and almost cover his eyes, which are starting to acquire their color.
Arms and Legs
Hands over heart. Your baby’s hands are flexed at the wrist and meet over the heart.
Knee joints. Your baby now has knees, and his feet may be long enough to meet in front of his body.
The respiratory system is forming. Breathing tubes run from his throat to the branches of his developing lungs.

Abby Johnson Cofounder and CEO of ” And Then There Were None” came out of the abortion industry after she witnessed an ultrasound abortion fpr a 13 week baby -saw the baby try to run from the suction, saw the body pieces come out one by one, saw a perfect little spine swirling in the womb before it too came out. It was a little boy. 13 weeks….So why are we praying for 20 weeks?

Lord of these babies, i know you will enact vengeance on our culture that has condones and even championed the right to tear these precious ones limb from limb. We ask you forgiveness as your people for not standing up for these innocence and for not being the salt and light you have called us to be. Lord, thank you for the states that have made this bill law, and i pray they apply it. We ask that it would become a federal law Lord. And i ask again that you would turn back this state law in Oregon that makes me pay for the killing of little babies. Lord God, help us we pray, in Jesus name, Amen

Father God, forgive our nation for the ongoing horror of abortion. Raise up people to stand and pray for Your mercy. Remove the desire in people’s hearts to destroy the lives of innocent ones for their own selfish purposes. Grant us success with laws that protect the innocent from destruction. I ask this in the mighty name of Jesus.

Abba, I pray you will stop abortion in my nation and around the world. I pray you will break the covenants with death in my country.
(Is. 28:18 – And your covenant with death shall be disannulled. And your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then you shall be trodden down by it.). Abba, thank you for your protection of all the unborn. Amen and Amen.

Why would I pray for such a bill hech no! STOP ABORTION ALTOGETHER! No more murdering the unborn period. That bill I will support. Just ask our Lord if that pleases Him. Heavenly Father we say no to all abortion to murder and kill the precious life You have blessed us with on earth. As Your child I ask that every root of abortion be cut of and stopped. That the leaders of this country will repent along with the church who has been silent and fearfull. Micah 6:8 ptotect what is good and what the Lord requires. Jesus You are the Way, the Life and the Truth. I pray that to be recognized by our leaders. In Jesus Name. Amen!

Luke 12:2-3
“But there is nothing covered up that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known.” Accordingly, whatever you have said in the dark will be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in the inner rooms will be proclaimed upon the housetops.

Father, forgive us, that we are a Nation, that must pass laws to stop the unthinkable brutality flourishing in our midst. Has the heart of this Nation grown so cold as to lack any moral out cry? You are proved right Romans 3:10 As it is written:”There is no one righteous, not even one… We have entirely lost our fear of You as a Nation. To think we have lost our sensitivity, our Godly moral compass as a people, and do not protect the very least and most helpless, even from excruciating slaughter! Father, wring justice from the court’s in this land, as the blood of Innocent’s demands. As Your righteousness demands. As You, who are altogether Holy, demand! We come before You, in Your precious Son Jesus’ Name, in repentance, sorrow and mourning. Let our voices cry out, break our hearts as in Jer 31:15 This is what the Lord says: “A voice is heard in Ramah, mourning and great weeping, Rachel weeping for her children and refusing to be comforted, because they are no more. We pray, we seek, Lord for this horror to be made fully revealed! Father, shine Your revealing light. Let Your heart and the truth be broadcast and proclaimed! Shut the mouth of the destroyer! Let lies fall to the ground with no power! Awaken judges and give Your Mind and discernment to those who have authority to write law. Let the people clap their hands over their mouths and say: “What have we done?!” Let no defense of this evil stand, or be mounted Father. Against You Lord we have allowed a great and terrible sin! We deserve the justice of Your Courts Lord. We do. But, because of Your mercy, because the Body of Christ comes to You and pleads His sacrifice over us, we pray You to relent from judgement and awaken the Body of Christ, even right now, to discern the seasons Father. You have not left us as orphans, helpless against evil. Our weapons are mighty 2Cor: 10:3-4.NLT We are human, but we don’t wage war as humans do. 4 We use God’s mighty weapons, not worldly weapons, to knock down the strongholds of human reasoning and to destroy false arguments. Is 49:25 NIV But this is what the LORD says: “Yes, captives will be taken from warriors, and plunder retrieved from the fierce; I will contend with those who contend with you, and your children I will save
Psalm107:2 ISV
Let those who have been redeemed by the LORD declare it— those whom he redeemed from the power of the enemy. Be disheartened no more because of your enemy. We Arise in the Power, Strength and Authority of our God. In Jesus’ Name we ask and pray. Thank You Father for loving us. Thank You that You are unchanging and everlasting. There is none like You. Thank you for Your Living Word.
Micah 6:8 ISV He has made it clear to you, mortal man, what is good and what the LORD is requiring from you— to act with justice, to treasure the LORD’s gracious love, and to walk humbly in the company of your God. Amen
