PRAISE - COLLEGIATE DAY of PRAYER!
Were you involved with a gathering at a college campus last Thursday? Or did you happen to watch one Livestreamed?
I watched Asbury University's, it was truly blessed! I posted it on my personal Facebook page if you'd like to watch, worship, and pray along with the students...love the worship and the sincere, prayerful hearts of the students!
This year not only was every USA campus adopted in prayer, but the number of people who signed up to pray tripled from past years!
"All earthly things with earth will pass away; prayer grasps eternity. Then pray, always pray!" - Bishop E. H. Bickersteth
PRAISE- JERUSALEM PRAYER BREAKFAST in HOUSTON
Thank you to everyone group who prayed for the Jerusalem Prayer breakfast of Houston.
"It was an amazing event, and the Israeli Knesset members who attended were blown away by the love of Christians for Israel and the Jewish people.
The presence of the Lord was strong and beautiful!"
Allan Parker, The Justice Foundation and our Pro-life covering.
PRAYER FOCUSES
1. ABORTION PILL - Now being distributed on many public high school and college campuses.
Four national medical associations and four doctors filed a lawsuit against the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), claiming that the FDA illegally approved the abortion pill in 2000 putting the well-being of women and girls at risk.
One board-certified OB/GYN said, “I practice in an in-patient setting and I, personally, along with many of my colleagues, have seen women and girls come in through our emergency rooms with severe complications from these drugs.”
Please talk with your daughters and/or pregnant friends about the serious dangers of the abortion pill. Please let them know there are wonderful options available including adoption or anonymously dropping their unharmed infant off at a safe, designated place within a certain time limit through the National Safe Haven Alliance. www.nationalsafehavenalliance.org
2. MARRIAGE - These statistics are quite shocking!
Only 30 percent of Americans are married, falling almost 60 percent since 1970. On top of that, nearly four million married Americans are "living alone together" (LAT), a growing movement of married couples who live separately to retain the independence that they enjoyed while being single.
Tragically, too many parents and church leaders seldom discuss or teach about fornication. In fact, I imagine if someone took a survey outside a church and asked attendees what the word fornication meant, the majority would not know it was 'sex before marriage'.
Why are too many pastors and Christian parents silent about fornication, along with the other sins in 1 Corinthians 6:9-10?
We need to speak the truth in love! So many are deceived, naive, or uniformed. We should share what GOD says. Their salvation may depend on it...
"Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the Kingdom of God."
Do we care more about being popular with our loved ones who are living in sin, falsely believing they are saved, than sharing what God says?
3. YOUTH - Nearly 14% of high school girls reported having been forced to have sex at some point in their lives. And 18% reported experiencing sexual violence in 2021, according to a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) study released Monday.
That is at least one in 10 girls being raped, sexually molested. Poor mental health, sadness, and hopeless are on the rise amongst youth. Tragically, so are suicides!
The Church and parents need to identify the causes and why these percentages continue to increase every year. Legislators need to stop letting
sexual attackers and pedophiles off the hook with very little punishment, if any. People need to know there will be firm accountability with justice served when they harm anyone!
4. From CALIFORNIA SENATOR SHANNON GROVE:
"What is happening in San Francisco right now should be alarming to every American! Pimps following mothers taking their kids to school and prostitutes walking in broad daylight in traffic have become common scenes in California.
My bill, SB 14, would hold perpetrators who are buying and selling human beings accountable."

5. MIGRANT MINOR CHILDREN
The New York Times report notes that a record surge of 130,000 “unaccompanied minors” hit the U.S. southern border last year.
Incredibly, the current Administration is unable to locate about 85,000 of them. The Times adds that the Department of Health and Human Services may have permanently lost track of more than 40,000 migrant children.
Biden’s deputies have admitted approximately 320,000 migrant children into the USA since January 2021. “About two-thirds of all unaccompanied minor migrant children ended up working full time at adult-type labor jobs."
Why does the Biden administration allow hundreds of thousands of minor children to enter the U.S. without parents and to work slave labor?! I thought that ended in our nation!
These young workers are part of a new economy of exploitation: Migrant children, who have been coming into the United States without their parents in record numbers, are ending up in some of the most punishing jobs in the country, a Times investigation discovered.
This shadow work force extends across industries in every state, flouting child labor laws that have been in place for nearly a century.
Twelve-year-old roofers in Florida and Tennessee. Underage slaughterhouse workers in Delaware, Mississippi and North Carolina. Children sawing planks on overnight shifts in South Dakota when they should be safely sleeping in bed.
The Times reports: "Cristian works a construction job instead of going to school. He is 14. Carolina packages Cheerios at night in a factory. She is 15.
Wander starts looking for day-labor jobs before sunrise. He is 13."
Many of the teenagers are being released by Biden’s deputies to recognized labor traffickers — not to caring relatives, the newspaper says.
The traffickers force the teenagers to work long hours at low wages and also take debt payments from the children before they can send cash to their poor, struggling families.
We are to protect children, both inside the womb and outside of it.
Yes, I am ecstatic that the Times published such an article.... but what they did not include is all the doors to human trafficking this "unaccompanied minors" allowance has created! Apparently our government cannot keep track of the children, losing tens upon tens of thousands in the system, yet the government continues to allow them in...
"LORD GOD, please help these children and hold accountable the ones who are abusing and using them for wicked, selfish gain."
6. PRAYERS for families including the PRAY CALIFORNIA Family and our ministry partners!
Many are battling health issues, illnesses and/or needing to schedule surgeries. Some are facing unexpected loss of loved ones.
Others are dealing with serious marriage, relationship, and/or financial crisis. Hopelessness and suicides are on the rise. We have the answer and His Name is YESHUA-JESUS and His everlasting love!
Thank you for praying for one another as the Holy Spirit leads.

UPCOMING EVENTS! If you cannot attend, would you please pray for the LORD to move, protection for all, provision, His Will, and however you are led.
1. PURIM - Begins Monday March 6th at sunset and ends March 7th at nightfall.
Purim is the Biblical story of how Mordecai and Queen Esther (her Hebrew name was Hadassah) saved the Jewish nation with GOD'S wisdom, direction, and favor.
It is also a powerful story of deceit and manipulation, and how the enemy (Haman) desires to kill and destroy God's chosen people (in which we have been grafted in). It is a great example of antisemitism which continues today. Yet because of two people's obedience, courage, boldness, prayer, fasting, and action (Mordecai and Queen Esther), a nation is saved!
And the enemy's horrifically evil plans are turned back onto him! A story of hope and joy...
We are in a season of miracles! Believe it, our mighty God is more than able; He has proven Himself over and over and over again!
2. MARCH for LIFE at the California State Capitol, Monday March 6th.
Pro-life rally is at 12:00pm, the walk around the Capitol begins at 1:00pm.
3. 40 Days of Hope in partnership with Hope California (and many other churches and ministries) continues!
www.40daysofhope.net is precious friend and partner Chris Leeper's website.
Watch this great video by fiery brother Mando Matthews https://youtu.be/H87fRfXi_Oo
4. AWAKE MEETINGS where Pray California Board Members and partners are involved...
