Pray for the state of Oregon. Disregard for God’s creative hand is a sin against God Himself.

“Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you!” (Is 49:15)

“Oregon Gov. Kate Brown held a signing ceremony Monday to commemorate a new law making abortion free for everyone in the state, including illegal immigrants.

The event was attended by members of the state legislature and pro-choice advocates, who regularly broke into rousing cheers and applause to celebrate the enactment of the Reproductive Health Equity Act….

Jonathan Lockwood, a spokesman for the Oregon Senate Republicans, said celebrating abortion may be macabre, but it’s not surprising given that Ms. Brown was an abortion rights lobbyist before entering public life.

“Gov. Brown celebrating abortion and averting moderation is nothing new,” Mr. Lockwood said.

Ms. Brown officially signed HB 3391 on Aug. 15. The $10.2 million legislation allocates $500,000 to pay for abortions for women who would otherwise be eligible for the state’s Medicaid program, if it weren’t for their immigration status….

‘Oregon has a long history of defending reproductive freedom,’ Mr. Barker said, ‘but rights don’t matter if you can’t afford access to them.’

He also read a postcard that he said was from his daughter thanking him for standing up for women’s reproductive health….

The first-of-its-kind law went into effect immediately after it was signed and requires Oregon insurers to provide 100 percent of the cost of abortions without co-pays or deductibles.

Qualifying state residents covered by Providence Health Care, a nonprofit Catholic insurance company that does not provide abortions, will be reimbursed for the procedure by the state….

‘At the heart of the Reproductive Health Equity Act was always the deep belief that no one should be denied health care just because they are low income, people of color, transgender or undocumented,’ Ms. Roman said at the signing ceremony. (Excerpted from The Washington Times, reporting by Bradford Richardson.)

Let’s agree to pray for the righteous in Oregon to rise up and do acts of justice. That the people would be convicted, that revival would move in the land. That His people pray for those in authority is they can lead peaceable and quiet lives. That life and life abundantly would be established.

Laws like this break my heart and the heart of God. I am glad my husband moved away from Oregon except that the more like him who leave the state the less pro-life voice there will be.

Heavenly Father,
Our hearts are grieved over this tragic decision made by an immoral woman. We pray for Ms Brown that her eyes would be opened to Your truth. May her soul be burden by her tragic pushing of this law. Burden her to the point of repentance.
May Your people be bold and reach out to the lost with the gospel. May Your Word go forth in power and might and may many hearts be changed and attitudes transformed.
By Your authority Yeshua. To You be glory, honor and praise.

For 35 years people in Southern Oregon and the Northern tip of California have petition DC to allow them to become “Jefferson State” because of the huge burden it is to these very conservative Americans to be “married” to the apostate cities that sway the vote liberal (or socialist). Lord God, i ask the brethern here at this site to pray for me and people like me who live in Southern OR, for our hearts are like Lot, being vexed every day at the wickedness we are made to share in with our tax dollars. Pray that a suit would be won in the courts to honor our rights not to have to pay for the death of an innocent, pray for the wake up of the churches here that are sleepy and allowing the enemy to keep gaining ground. And pray for the emergence of a 51st state. Lord we bring all this before you, we know that these little ones being slaughtered immediately go into your arms, we ask that you would help every young Mother find a CPC to help them in their crisis. In Jesus name, Amen

Dear friends, I urge you as foreigners and exiles to keep away from fleshly desires that do battle against the soul. Flee from sexual immorality.
Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body. Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body. (1 Corinthians 6:18–20)

Heavenly Father, I lift up every man and woman and pray for your protection of those who are beguiled, enticed and exploited. Open their hearts and minds to your truth. Holy Spirit convict the world of sin and righteousness and judgment; rescue the innocent and remove the unrighteous from office. In the name of Jesus. Amen!

May God open your eyes to the truth and you be set free from your horrible sin. Life is at the moment of conception. If you ask God He will forgive you of all your sins.. ASK! ASK! ASK!

Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born. I appointed you… You had a purpose…

Galatians 1:15 But when He who had set me apart before I was born and called me to His grace.

Psalm 71:6 Upon you I have leaned from before my birth; you are He who took me from my mother’s womb. My praise is continually of you..

The mother is the carrier of the baby, she is the vessel, the child in her womb belongs to God, just as the mother carrying the child belongs to God. The mother is not God. She is responsible to insure that the child is brought safely into the world not murdered..

I am so grieved at the proud high handed regime that this state has implemented, while taxpayers are drained dry financing legals’ and illegals’ abortions. Again to call it reproductive freedom? O LORD we cry out for deliverance! This whole culture and its’ elite love to destabilize families, normalize perversion, and bring disorder to the godly blessing of families. “As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people! Those who lead you cause you to err, and destroy the way of your paths. The LORD will enter into judgment with the elders of His people and His princes: ‘For you have eaten up the vineyard; The plunder of the poor is in your houses. What do you mean by crushing My people and grinding the faces of the poor?’ Says the LORD of hosts.”Isaiah 3:12-15. O Lord it is not appropriate for women to be haughty, walking with outstretched necks and wanton eyes as Your Word describes many women today, let alone this depraved governor. “The wicked have drawn the sword and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, to slay those who are of upright conduct. Their sword shall enter their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.” Psalm 37:14-15. Hear our cries for deliverance for this heinous practice. Pierce the evil doers hearts with grief and repentance. Deliver these precious lives made in Your image. The LORD of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge. Bring and show Your might and power to this depraved state. In Jesus Name, Amen

God’s Word/ the Bible supersedes man’s thoughts:
Thou shall not kill, Exodus 20:13.
What is the difference between the abortionists and Hitler? I believe their hatred and shedding of innocent blood is even more abominable: they are legalizing this method of barbarism at the expense of the American tax dollars. These evil deeds are orchestrated by the father of deception, Satan, John 10:10.
God has given His Church a command to oppose evil and a call to pray, 2 Chronicles 7:14.

Oh Lord how sad that people are celebrating the killing of your babies!!!
And not only that people who don’t believe in abortions are required to pay for them. It’s not right Lord. Lord have mercy on their souls. Open their hearts, minds and spirits to your Truth, Love, Presence, Salvation and Peace in Jesus name, amen. God help us all. Peace be with you!

It is no wonder our entire state was on fire and the smoke putrified the air for over a month. This sin of killing babies breaks the heart of God and should cause us to weep over the judgment on this state. I do. “The house of the wicked will be overthrown, but the tent of the righteous will flourish. There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death.” Prov 14: 11,12 I am shocked there is only one response here to this atrocity, terror*ism against the unborn. Pray that God will single out these who have voted and signed such a terrible thing and that they will repent.

We pray according to your most holy word(Even so Lord send the hounds of heaven):
So [as the result of the Messiah’s intervention] they shall [reverently] fear the name of the Lord from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him and put him to flight [for He will come like a rushing stream which the breath of the Lord drives]. Isaiah 59:19 AMPC
Born again 1978, hallelujah what a time of rejoicing; recall my Pastor Earl Banning quote, “I have one bible print correction and have made it in all my bibles; the coma should correctly of been placed between the “in, like” It reflects God! it sure does!)… When the enemy shall come in, LIKE A FLOOD THE SPIRIT OF HE LORD WILL LIFT UP A STANDARD AGAINST HM AND PUT HIM TO FLIGHT.
AMEN

The sins that were once done in secret is now done openingly as our nation progresses further away from The Lord God and His Word. Many doing what is right in their own eyes and laws being passed to condone it to appease the people so that they, who make it law might stay in power. Calling evil good and good evil.

Lord God, thank You for your patience with us and love for us. Please Lord, Deliver these babies from murder by the decision of their mother and the partner involved who fails to do the right thing and to speak up for the child conceived. Convict them and convince of their sins.. First, for the activity that conceived this child if it was outside marriage, if that is the case and now being with child, willing to get an abortion. Sin upon sin.. Help them to see what it is they are doing and turn to You in repentance and for help. Remove from power those who think this should be a choice or convict them of Your truth and the reality that they will stand before You to give an account. It’s like offering up your child to the god of pleasure and is indeed an abomination to You. Lord, I know you hate the shedding of innocence blood and our land has been defiled with it and if we do not repent as a nation, we will be judged. Please move, on us Holy Spirit to convict of sin and righteousness and judgment and grant repentance and spiritual awakening in this land and revival in Your church.. in the name of Jesus, I ask these things and for Your glory, LORD GOD. amen

“If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?” Ps 11:3
What we can do is what God’s word declares: Repent, and return to the Lord, for His mercy is great and His compassion is unending. We cry out to the Lord in repentance for our land.

I am so stuck by not the desire for abortion, but by how it is so “anesthesized” in it’s presentation to the public: the “right” of DEFENDING REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOM by way of the REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH EQUITY ACT. Sounds so sterile, as if it were a good thing (using words like defending and equity and freedom). OMG(osh)!! Talk about deception! Talk about twisting the truth!! I understand evil in this world. I just wish these same people who promote such “freedom and equity and defense” (aka evil)would have the courage to call it what it is- ABORTION (aka murder). One can only dream…….

It stops being just a woman’s own body when an innocent little life is growing inside her. Defenseless, pure and holy is that child. Tearing its body to pieces and vacuuming it out of her body is murder–murder of someone who has no way to defend his or herself. We must obey the laws of God if our country is to survive and abortion is a crime against God. I truly believe that the problems we are having in the world are because we have forgotten who gave us life and that we will stand before Him for judgment after we leave this world.

Kate Brown may be the first bi-sexual governor. Life is in the blood, we pray for justice for the unborn, and righteousness to replace murder. We do pray for the seeds of John G. Lake to come to life again.

What is wrong with this woman and the lawmakers that back her up. Really? These little babes deserve to live. Thought that they have a right to live. Maybe more birth control should be handed out. If a woman has several abortions then implement a tubal ligation for them free of charge. Kate needs a brain xray as I don’t think she has one. She must have had abortions herself. These women and abortions, the complications that could follow, WOW! What is wrong with these people. Please Lord, sterilize these women that want to murder their babies, send them to prison for murder. What do they do to people that murder other people? Same thing should happen to the ones not only performing the abortion, but the one receiving it. Amen

We war not against flesh and blood but wickedness in high places, our God is an awesome God, He reigns from Heaven above eith wisdom power and love our God is an awesome God. Lord in obedience to you to pray for our enemies, I cry out for your Spirit to convict Governor Brown of sin, hell and the grave, for without your power who can be transferred by your hand from darkness to light. The hope of salvation is the your greatest blessing, conviction! Revival Lord, let your righteousness people in Oregan fight the good fight of the faith and by your power also be the lamp on the hill shining over Oregan before the Governor like John the Baptist to every person possible. Call your people into action, in word and deed, let your people seek you God, for the battle is yours, Revelation proclaims, who hears what the Spirit is saying? Lord, let your will be done, in Oregan, to the north, the south, the east and the west. Thank you God, you are Great!

FatherI pray for the public officials leading the people into these decisions that are effecting the whole state. I pray your grace and mercy would turn their hearts to to and to repent of their sins. Your Word says “For all sin and fall short of your glory of God” in the Powerful name of Jesus, amen

Holy, holy Father! Jesus cried out, “Father, forgive them for they know not what they do.”
It is hard to believe they don’t know what they’re doing when they give free reign to the slaughter of innocent babies. You are merciful still–open the eyes of all who believe this is a right and not murder. We trust in You! In Your sovereignty! Let us awaken to be the salt and light of Truth in Lord Jesus. May we be filled with the love of Christ, unashamed of the Gospel, connected to the Vine and speak Your Words and do what You call us to do in the name of Jesus Christ, Your Son. May Your people arise and wake up to the fear of our awesome God and be about Your business. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, King of Kings and Lord of Lords! Amen

In the Mighty Name of Jesus i bind this spirit of death from among us. Lord forgive us for not doing our job as salt and light that has led us to such a place as this. Lord God, defeat this bill and rid our healthcare of promoting Planned Parenthood. Lord we call out to you for mercy, for mercy Lord, help us defend the unborn. Lord, do not let the Devil gain more ground in the slaughtering of the unborn. May all Christians watch “the Silent Scream” on Youtube, so they are in no doubt of the murder done in each abortion. May each Christian go to “Silent no More” and pray for these women still dealing with the aftermath of consigning their child to torture and death after 30 yrs. Lord have mercy on us, save us from ourselves, in Jesus name, Amen
