For You From The Word
The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. (James 5:16, NIV)
For You To Think About
As Anita and several other volunteers prayed at a vigil in front of a California abortion clinic, a van pulled into the driveway. The driver looked at them but kept on going.
A man and woman got out of the van and walked towards the building. The volunteers continued to pray.
Soon the couple came out of the clinic, got back into the van, and drove towards the exit.
“The passenger side window was rolled down,” Anita said, “so I walked towards them, said good morning and smiled, and then asked if they were here for an abortion.”
“No,” the woman said. “We changed our mind.”
The man driving leaned over and said, “We decided to keep our baby because of you people praying on the sidewalk.” Both smiled. “Thank you.” (Read the full story here .)
Prayers for life are powerful and effective.
For You To Pray
Gracious Father,
Thank you for the many ways you save babies’ lives. Raise up more prayer warriors to pray for women and men to choose life.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
