California Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) signed a new law Saturday mandating that many large retail stores offer some toys in gender-neutral sections, a move advocates say encourages children to consider toys without taking into account gender stereotypes.

“This bill would require a retail department store that is physically located in California that has a total of 500 or more employees across all California retail department store locations that sells childcare items or toys to maintain a gender neutral section or area, to be labeled at the discretion of the retailer, in which a reasonable selection of the items and toys for children that it sells shall be displayed, regardless of whether they have been traditionally marketed for either girls or for boys,” reads the law…

The law will go into effect in 2024, and will bring with it a possible $250 fine for a first violation, and up to a $500 fine for each subsequent violation…

One notable law, AB 1346, will ban retailers from selling gas-powered lawnmowers as early as 2024 — even though, according to Andrew Bray of the National Association of Landscaping Professionals, the zero-emissions versions currently cost more than twice as much as conventional gas versions, reports The Los Angeles Times…

Do you think this law is really necessary for children to understand which toys they can play with?? Share a prayer for protection over our children’s hearts and minds.

How ridiculous is this – with all the wrong that is going on in this world to be concerned about (abortion, rape, murder, dismantling the police). I pray that this will not pass, and that a sense of truth and goodness will overshadow the U.S.

This is not really a law…..it’s an agenda!!
Father, Your Word says,”I know the plans I have for you (our children and grandchildren) AND, they are plans for GOOD and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope!” Thank you,Father, for Your protection over the children. Thank You for working all things together for their good. Praise You, Lord, that “You are more than able, to do exceeding, abundantly, above all that we can ask or think for our children and grandchildren!”
Father, let all the plots and plans the people behind this agenda have for the children, FAIL, in Jesus name!

This law is so unconstitutional that it practically begs to be challenged. Let us pray that many store, corporations and other merchants will file such large suits against this vile law that it will be recalled. Also, in this state we need to pray for righteous courts and judges, as most are sold out to the extreme liberal agenda. Pray that truth, righteous and justice will prevail, and that the children will be supernaturally protected from these wicked, evil attempts to defile their precious, innocent minds and hearts.

This is an ongoing prayer of mine to ask the Lord God for protection over the minds and hearts of our little children from preschool through the middle school years. Please provide the righteous values for our children to see and observe and experience through their parents and families, through their churches and teachers, and through the friends they have. Protect them from the evil that is surrounding them.
My prayer for middle school children is basically the same. Provide biblical values in their midst to hold onto. Let the parents be like minded with you Lord.
And also for the high schoolers, provide your wisdom in their hearts and
minds, and guide them to make right choices for their lives. Let them want to be followers of you Lord. Open their eyes to see you and your wonderful love and forgiveness.
For all our children here in our country and everywhere we ask it.

Thank you🙏
Thank you

Father, as the leaders of my state fall into the abyss of Satans kingdom, I pray You open the eyes of the voters to give them discernment to remove these charlatans from office. I bind the spirit of tyranny and deception over our state. I loose wisdom and freedom over California. I pray for a backlash to rise up and confront this governmental overreach that puts these nonsensical laws into practice that support the heresy of gender fluidity. May this evil ideology that ensnares children be defeated by the blood of the Lamb. May it’s grip over our children be crushed in Jesus name. Wake up the parents dear God, out of their slumber to realize this ideology wants to rob their children from achieving true happiness. It will thwart the God given potential in their children from being realized. May they see it as a trap to ensnare their children and put them into an endless loop of despair. May they understand the guilt they will encounter years down the road when they realize they failed to take responsibility for their own children. Father You said this day would come when good would be called evil and evil good. We stand against this deception and pray You release our nation from its evil grip.

Yes, I pray for the protection of our children. But I also pray wisdom for the parents and grandparents and caregivers of these children who are responsible for teaching them God’s truth.

I do believe that this governor of California has become full of pride and wants to be in the news all the time. So he devises ways to be radical. He’s also desperate for money as people leave the state. I pray God changes his heart and saves him. Or I pray God takes him down. God will decide.

I know there are godly people in California. I know some personally. I know there are churches in California who teach God’s truth. So there is hope.

Lord God,
We pray for California. What a mess all these regulations and requirements have made as they destroy the fabric of the state and of those who follow Christ. We pray that You would move Your hand and raise up the people of California, especially the believers to stand firm and to fight these tyrannical measures being taken by their governor. Lord, we pray for Gavin Newsom that he would be saved and repent from the wickedness he has carried out on the citizens of California. We pray that there would be integrity in their judicial and electoral systems and that those who hold power will no long be able to manipulate the outcomes. Lord, we pray protection over the children exposed to the lies of the enemy all under the banner of tolerance and love. But it is not love! It is confusion and chaos that they bring into the minds of children seeking to destroy families and corrupt Your design for mankind. Lord, Romans 1:26, “for this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural for what is against nature. Likewise also men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful..”. This is where we are! Please Lord, strengthen Your Church, Your children that we may stand for The Truth of Your Word regardless of the culture. Help us to love people and preach the love and life found in Jesus Christ as we see the days grow darker. Maranatha, Lord Jesus Come quickly we pray in Your Name!
