The Texas comptroller has opened an investigation into a gay bar that hosted a drag show for children. We must pray to protect our children.

From The Christian Post. In a statement released Friday, Texas Comptroller Glenn Hegar identified himself as one of many Texas parents who found themselves “disturbed by the recent images showing children participating in a drag show in the Dallas area, including one of a child placing money in a performer’s undergarment.”

Have you taken your place on the wall?

 

The drag show in question, which was dubbed as a “family-friendly pride experience” called “Drag the Kids to Pride,” took place at Mr. Misster bar in Dallas on June 4….

Hegar assured concerned Texans that “my office had already begun the process of investigating this specific event, as well as working to determine if the establishment is liable for the Sexually Oriented Business Fee (SOBF) under Chapter 102 of the Business Code.”

Hegar’s announcement came one day after Republican state Rep. Bryan Slaton called on Hegar to treat Mr. Misster as a “sexually-oriented business.” As Slaton explained, “Sexually-oriented businesses are required to pay $5 per attendee present and they must also prevent children and sex offenders from attending or participating.”

Slaton emerged as an outspoken opponent of the idea of drag shows for kids when news of the “Drag the Kids to Pride” event at Mr. Misster first broke in early June. At the time, Slaton vowed to introduce legislation that would ban drag shows for minors as soon as the next session of the Texas legislature began. Two months later, the state lawmaker has described any action by Hegar as a temporary measure to “enforce existing law and protect Texas kids while I work with my colleagues in the Texas Legislature.”

Video footage from the event shows a performer dressed in red leather drag taking tips from small children as he suggestively danced under a sign that read, “It’s not going to lick itself.” A description of the June 4 drag show on Eventbrite promoted the availability of “Mr. Misster Mocktails” for guests under the age of 21 while highlighting “FIVE limited spots for young performers to take the stage solo, or with a queen of their choosing.”

Following Hegar’s public statement indicating his intention to investigate the drag show for kids, Slaton praised the state comptroller for his “strong leadership on this important issue.” The state lawmaker asserted that “when it comes to protecting children from grotesque content, Texans deserve lawmakers who will stand up for our children’s innocence.”

“Any business that allows kids to attend an event of a sexual nature should be held accountable, and I am proud of Glenn Hegar for taking steps in that direction,” he remarked. “Like many Texans, I am eagerly awaiting the results of his investigation. I will continue working toward passing legislation to ensure children are never again subjected to these events….”

Lord, I pray a heavenly protection on children in Texas and other states that are subject to this kind of radical abuse. May you protect these children even if the parents do not have the sense to protect them up properly. Have your way Jesus. IJN

Prayer to give u strength: The Armor of God. Ephesians- Parents, Teachers, children.

10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Win, win with Gods word as your sword.

Never give up!!! Be filled with Gods tools of wisdom.

Father God, we stand against this stronghold of perverting our children to watch a drag Queen show at a bar, any bar. This is Satans attempt to destroy our children’s minds. The school teachers, school board must be held accountable for these evil agendas. I know they are trying to steal, kill, destroy the family image because God made us and the Devil hates anything that he played a part in. We ask that all of these forced issues be stopped immediately and that a cleansing will take place. All of the books, pictures, drawings, music, activities, will be destroyed in the name I hold high, His name is Jesus

Father, we declare by the authority of the name of Jesus that this establishment along with any others be shut down forthwith and all licenses to pulled permanently. We come against these sexual perverted spirits and command them to come to a halt in the name of Jesus. Father open the eyes of our children and let them see that this is a trap from Satan to gain control of their lives. Thank you Father for answering my prayer. In Jesus name Amen.

Only one word for the above event description: disgusting. Lord, you said that it was better to tie a millstone around our neck than to lead one of these little ones astray. Father, help our country see what we have been allowing. Thank You for exposing evil. The church needs to arise and protect her children at all costs. Matthew 18: 6-11

As it was in the days of Noah so shall it be of. the return of Christ
Sexual perversion cannot be denied, in our society. The sign of Noah’s days are upon our Nation
It is this sign that should usher the church into abandonment
Intercession and deep prayer as we know. It has been foretold
By the great prophets of old, know the time and the signs that must come upon this world

The voice of Gay people simply means a false prophet has arisen
To lead half the world into defilement, to obstruct the coming of Jesus Christ
As we know it is the one sin that you must mix with hate, sex and revelry
