Saving the Next Generation – Lives Worth Fighting For!

Over many generations, Australians have had many young men and women go off to war – those who are willing to lay down their lives for their loved ones and our nation. There are also those who stayed behind constantly praying for those on the front line, and who carried the intercession for the battle before the Throne of Grace for protection and victory.

We are in a time of pursuit and recovery of everything that has been stolen (1 Samuel 30:8). We are no longer only defending territory, but taking the offensive!

It is a time of advancing the Kingdom of God and recovering all that has been taken from us. Double for our former shame (Isaiah 61:7) — it has been much in the lives that have been aborted in our nation over 50 years, it has been the emotional well-being of women and their families!

We are “to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God”(Isaiah 61:2). We do not want to come in a spirit of retaliation, but we acknowledge our righteous God is also a God of justice.

Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord.”
~ Romans 12:19

“For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting,
And His truth endures to all generations.”
~ Psalm 100:5

Triumphal Procession

Jesus always leads us in triumphant procession! We know there is an enemy that wants to destroy us and our nation. We know Christian ethics and values are being confronted fiercely, daily, all around us. We know our enemy is the Father of Lies. People are being deceived, not knowing what is behind these terms and phrases presented in the Abortion Bills. The wording even sounds so right – but it’s actually evil being presented as good.

The counsel of the Lord stands forever;
The plans of His heart to all generations.
~ Psalm 33:11

The Authority of the Son

Jesus said to them, “Very truly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing on his own, but only what he sees the Father doing; for whatever the Father does, the Son does likewise. The Father loves the Son and shows him all that He Himself is doing; and He will show him greater works than these, so that you will be astonished.”
~ John 5:19-20

Jesus went out early in the morning to pray, before He faced the desperate crowds and those who were wanting to kill him – He prayed to His Father.

Jesus listened to, highly valued and spoke His Father’s words – not His own understanding. He did exactly what his Father was doing. Total obedient surrender brought success (100%), as Jesus walked in the perfect pleasing will of the Father. Even to the cross, which became the final blow to the enemy.

Worship:

Prayer: Father in Heaven, we thank You for the example of Jesus, who walked in radical obedience to Your voice. May Your followers all over this nation listen to You and obey You, saying what You say, and doing only what You are doing. Help us to listen to You to enter into Your pleasing perfect will at this critical time in our nation’s history. Give us courage as we step out to stop the abortion bills. Lord, we need wisdom and grace to help right now in our time of need. Thank You for Your throne of grace — hear the praises of Your people and go and confuse our enemies while we step out in obedience to lean on You. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

• Lord, we need policy to rescue and provide for the unborn; shift this evil and expose any lies.
• Let the Spirit of the Fear of the Lord and repentance come to those voting on these bills.
• Stop the Greens (Tammy Franks) Abortion Reform Bill in South Australia.
• Stop the Reproductive Health Care (Abortion Reform) Bill in NSW: slow it, change it, and remove it, remove the things in it that are destructive.
• Strengthen the righteous parliamentarians to have great wisdom, influence and favour.
• Lord, deliver women, men, families, medical staff and others from the anguish suffered from the implications of terminating a pregnancy.

FAST + PRAY = LIFE

Today as we stand together ‘as one’ in prayer and fasting may the Lord:

STOP the proposed Abortion Reform Bill in South Australia – “Statutes Amendment (Abortion Law Reform) Bill.”

STOP the New South Wales Abortion Bill – “The Reproductive Healthcare Reform Bill 2019”

Push Back and eventually STOP Abortion in every state and territory in Australia!

SHIFT the culture of this Nation to Mercy, Peace, Righteousness and Justice
