PRAY CALIFORNIA Newsletter - 2023 - Week 16
 
  Next PRAYER CALL: Wednesday, April 19th, 2023 at 12:00 PM PST
 
 
PRECIOUS FAMILY of GOD,

At times it seems as if we are surrounded by evil on all sides. Yet we
continue to press on in the strength of the Lord and to look up, not being overcome by evil but overcoming evil with good!

This Scripture from Lamentations is wonderfully encouraging:
"Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not.
23 They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. The Lord is my portion,” says my soul,Therefore I hope in Him!”
- Lamentations 3:22-23

Yes Lord, You are faithful, You are our eternal Hope! And we love you...

PRAYER FOCUSES
1. BABIES
In response to a ruling by the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals that bans mail-order abortions that kill babies and can seriously injure women, Kamala
Harris was at it again! Harris, the Vice President of the United States who should be protecting helpess babies in the womb, appeared at a pro-abortion
rally on Saturday in Los Angeles. She told abortion activists that this is a “a critical point in our nation’s history” because killing babies in abortions is becoming more and more limited across the country. She called ending a baby’s life in an abortion a “fundamental right” for women and urged people
to stand up and fight for killing more babies. What crazy thinking! She is urging the horrific murder of helpless female babies who will one day become a woman.
Where is their right?!
And even as crazy/foolish as that is, I saw that on Anderson Cooper's show, Democrat Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez explained that she believes the Biden Administration should "ignore" (ignore?!) a ruling from a Federal Judge in Texas that halted the approval of abortion pill mifepristone.
Wow! Because the Federal Judge does not align with her murderous thoughts, she thinks it's okay to simply disregard a Federal Judge?!

Question: With people like her in office who have proven to be anti-Christ and anti-American, where is our nation heading?
Answer: A deep dark pit if we, as God's Ambassadors, do not pray, get involved, and seek first His Righteousness and His Kingdom.
 
ON ANOTHER NOTE:
Oh my! Dads, your voice is heard by your baby in their Momma's womb!
After they are born, will your child be comforted or cry louder? A really beautiful short video: Couple min. This is outstanding! - Lois Cadwallader | Facebook
 
2. YOUTH
LGBT advocacy group 'The Trevor Project' released a study March 29 that found kids who come out as transgender or nonbinary at a younger age,
are at greater risk of suicidal thoughts or actions.
Among youth who came out as transgender or nonbinary before 13 years old, 62% have considered suicide and 29% have attempted suicide, according to the study.
Among those who came out at the age of 13 years or older, 51% have considered suicide and 17% attempted suicide.
“Young people who came out about their gender identity before age 13 reported higher rates of victimization due to their gender identity,” the study further found.
 
3. ISRAEL
Monday night at sunset to Tuesday (18th) at nightfall is Yom HaShoah 'Holocaust Remembrance Day.' Our beloved Israeli Representative
Rosemary Schindler Garlow flew from San Diego to Israel to honor holocaust survivors, pray, and participate in the observances.

PRAY! There has been a very disturbing surge of anti-Semitism in America, including being taught on college campuses as mentioned in last
weeks Newsletter. Now, according to the latest report from the Anti-Defamation League, anti-Semitic incidents increased by 36% in 2022 to a record high.
The number of physical assaults jumped 26%.

PRAY for the protection of Israel (some precious partners live there), for wisdom for leadership, and for the peace of Jerusalem.
 
 
PARENTS, proud of you for protecting your kids!
Two Disney movies lost over $350,000,000.00 (million) because parents were alerted to same-sex indoctrination of children in the movies 'Strange World' and 'Lightyear.'
 
The movies lost more money than any other animated film in Disney's history as a result of featuring the first openly gay main character in the animated Disney film 'Strange World,' and a same-sex kiss in the other, a franchise of Toy Story...
 
There are other reasons to boycott the movies. The overall reviews are eye-opening.

To find reviews from a Biblical perspective before you spend your hard-earned money or allow your children to see a particular film, check out Movieguide. The beautiful and informative website also offers interesting articles and much more. www.movieguide.org
