“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that ALL MEN [born AND unborn] are created equal, that they are endowed
by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights,
that among these are
LIFE,
Liberty,
and the pursuit of Happiness.”
The Declaration of Independence (emphasis and inclusion, mine)
SCRIPTURE FOCUS
So if the Son liberates you [makes you free men],
then you are really and unquestionably free.
John 8:36 Amplified
Father God, We come to you today – many believers, one voice – to stand for life. As Americans, we celebrate the gift to live, completely free, in our great country. That freedom has come at a cost, as the blood of our service men and women have soaked battlefields in countries far and wide to secure it. They have fought for the freedom of EVERY American; those of the past, those of the present and those of the future…the unborn. From a blood-soaked hill called Calvary, our freedom from sin was bought at a cost, as well, for ALL HUMANS; those of the past, those of the present and those of the future…the unborn. We’re believing today that You will bring President Obama to a place of realization that the country of freedom He leads, is a country that was established as free for ALL. We pray that You would turn his heart and mind to realize the unborn are included in that population. Believing You will change one heart for many, we pray in the MIGHTY, LIFE-GIVING NAME OF JESUS CHRIST, Amen.
I pray for our president every day. He says he is a Christian and I must believe him, yet I still pray for wisdom for him as he leads this country.

What a powerful post. Like Leah, I too pray for our president's wisdom. I heard today that our Continental Congress would pray for as long as 3 hours before their sessions and discuss scripture.
Think what a difference there would be in our country today if our leaders would corporately take this same approach before major decision making.
Thank you again for keeping it so very real. I hope that you and your family had a very Happy 4th of July.
I heard a fantastic sermon this morning on Charles Stanley's programming. The guest speaker talked about how our nation was truly built on a Christian foundation. I've been guilty of not thinking about it much in recent days; I suppose I've been too depressed about the condition of our country.
I just want to cry most days. I'm trying to keep a positive focus, believing that we are not so far gone, that God won't intervene in a powerful way.
Praying for the freedom of every born individual this day. Thanks for the continuing fight for human life! A valiant effort, friend.
Have a great week.

Amen!!
Wonderful post; powerful prayer.
May our leaders seek Him, and may their policies issue from there.
Be blessed,
Kathleen
Thank you for the post… It is so true that I am shocked that this is even an issue in our country… That "we" could even think taking a baby's life is ok or justifiable. It grieves me to no end.

Melinda, wow — the freedom to live. It seems so basic, doesn't it? Why can people not see it? Praying with you…
