Time to End Abortion Now

We must work the works of Him who sent Me as long as it is day; night is coming when no one can work (John 9:4).

It took us many decades to get to the place where the argument over abortion is not whether or not the unborn baby is a human being, but when and under what circumstances you get to kill it.

A look at the political scene in our country is enough to cause anyone who loves the Lord to despair. Those in power are forcing their ungodly ways on Christians. We used to be a Christian nation in the sense that no one questioned God or the Bible or the sanctity of life. I’m old enough to remember a time like that. Now those things are all “politically incorrect”.

I cannot remain silent while there is still hope. We are quickly getting to the place where we will not be able to speak out without being arrested. My sisters and brothers, I beg you to stop whatever else you are doing and pray. Then, get involved in whatever organization you can to help stop the holocaust against unborn babies. What is being done to helpless babies is just a symptom of the whole problem. As a nation we have deserted God. We must turn back to righteousness.

Before you say you have given up in despair, consider that others are working very hard and some gains are being made to protect the unborn. If enough people join them we may have a chance to roll back the evil that is being done.

Marjorie Dannenfelser has done a heroic job as president of the Susan B. Anthony List. She needs our support. Go to the SBA website and donate some money. You can also see what currently proposed legislation needs your action. Pray for Lila Rose and her colleagues in Live Action News as they go undercover to film stories about what is really happening in abortion clinics.

Join your local pro-life group. They will keep you informed as to what is going on in your state. If you are blessed enough to live in a state like Texas with pro-life leaders, support them. They can’t do the job alone.

Do your best to defeat legislators like Wendy Davis who advocates barbaric late-term abortion. Texas women can abort a healthy baby up to the 26th week of pregnancy for any reason under the current law. Ms. Davis is considered a hero by her abortion friends for blocking a law that would protect healthy babies from what is nothing less than murder. A 26 week-old baby can survive outside of the womb. What is the difference between killing the child inside the womb or out? Thankfully, Governor Rick Perry will call another legislative session to get the bill restricting abortion passed.

Even if we leave God out of the discussion, most people (80% according to a January Gallup poll) think that abortion should be illegal in the third trimester. 64% say they disagree with abortion in the second trimester. In many European countries you can’t get an abortion past 12 weeks except in exceptional circumstances. Ms. Davis along  with Obama, Pelosi, Cecile Richards and other abortion “rights” advocates would make America the most barbaric country in the world.

Read and support (LifeSiteNews.com). There you will be able to keep up with state and national legislation as well as many other articles about the sanctity of life.

There is a beautiful story at LifeSiteNews with photographs of a baby, Walter, born at nineteen weeks gestation. The family has shared the photos of the baby and wishes others to pass them on. Mother, Lexi Fretz encourages, “Please feel free to share our photos. In all our hurt, I am glad that some good can come out of this. I pray that the Lord will continue to use Walter’s photos to impact many.”

A picture is worth a thousand words, so share photos especially with women you know that are contemplating abortion.

It is not enough to just talk about the seriousness of killing babies. We must help women who find themselves in a tough situation. The answer to their problem is not to do away with the baby. The baby did not choose to be conceived. The mother and father made the mistake; the baby should not pay for their sin with his/her life. Find out where the adoption organizations are in your state and inform yourself as to what the options are that they offer. Churches used to have homes for unwed mothers. How many women would choose to carry their babies if they only had some help?

If you are brave enough join Operation Rescue or other groups that peacefully protest outside of abortion clinics. Pray for the women who go inside, but also pray for the women and men who work in the abortion clinics. Many women, like Abby Johnson (see my March 14, 2012 post), have had enough of the barbarism and left abortion clinics. Pray that God will open the eyes of others and that soon there will be no one left who wants to kill babies.

We are in a war. The church has been asleep for far too long. The opposition knows that they can win the fight while we sleep. WAKE UP! GET BUSY! We don’t have to let the forces of evil completely rule in our country. We can’t afford to while away every night in front of the television anymore. If every Christian would even spend one night a week doing something – anything – we could restore justice in this land for the unborn.

Let us work for the night is coming. One by one laws are being passed that are targeting Christianity. Don’t fall for the lie about “separation of church and state”. The opposition pushes that to keep Christians silent. They are passing their laws while we’re expected to sit around and be “tolerant”. They are not tolerant. Just witness the behavior at the Texas Capitol this week.

Therefore, let everyone who is godly pray to You in a time when You may be found (Psalm 32:6).
