Urgent Prayer Alert: SCOTUS
Deliberating Today/Voting Tomorrow
Dear Prayer Warriors:
I’m calling on you today with an
extremely urgent prayer intention.
As you know, yesterday the Supreme
Court heard oral arguments concerning
abortion. Tomorrow they take their preliminary vote whether or not to undo the
heinous Roe v.
Wade decision of
1973.
We mentioned in our release
yesterday that the Justices will make their ruling public at the end
of their summer session (next June or July).
However, the decision is
actually made in a
closed-door session of the nine Justices that will take
place tomorrow, Friday the
3rd of December.
In other words, we stand at the
very threshold of the possible undoing of a fifty year
crime.
If Roe v. Wade is overturned by the Justices this year,
the sovereignty of the people in all fifty states over such a critical
issue will be returned and the fight for life will be placed back in
the hands of the electorate once again.
And we will fight like warriors of
Christ when the legal and cultural battlefield is once again open for
the fray.
But right now, we
must pray. Prayer is the
greatest spiritual weapon at our disposal, and everyone is capable of
taking up that weapon for the cause of Justice.
Since tomorrow’s day of decision is
a First Friday of the month – a day traditionally devoted to
the Sacred Heart of Jesus – we are urging all our prayer warriors to
place their greatest hope and confidence in the Lord’s Sacred Heart,
the Heart that was pierced by a lance on Calvary for our
redemption.
Today and tomorrow, let us all join
in praying the following intentions in union with the Christian
Church; we pray:
-
That the infinite spiritual power of
the Precious Blood which flowed from the Heart of Christ will
now redeem our country from the genocide of unborn children that
was unleashed by Roe;
-
That the nine Justices of the high
court will use their God-given power to restore
legal protection to the
most vulnerable citizens of our land;
-
That the people and culture of our
nation, so corrupted by a half-century of blood sacrifice, will
have a true conversion of heart and make abortion not only illegal in all
fifty states but more importantly, unthinkable in the hearts of men and women to whom have
been entrusted the great gift of life.
Since we won’t know the results of
the decision for many months, we must offer these petitions to God
as a pure act of faith.
Yet, we know from the Gospel that
the purity of faith is what Jesus honors most, as He said to the
doubting Thomas: “Blessed are those who do not see and yet still
believe” (John 20: 29).
We believe! We pray! We will fight
to the end for God’s precious children! Join me in reciting this prayer continuously
and please share with others:
Oh
Jesus, filled with so much love and compassion for all your children,
born and unborn, we ask you to place in Your Sacred Heart, the United
States Supreme Court Justices, as they make their choice for a
preliminary vote on Dobbs vs. Jackson Women’s Health. May they receive
the graces of wisdom, knowledge and truth, and may their hearts
overflow with love for all of mankind, especially those in their
mother’s womb. We beg mercy upon our land for all the abortions that
have taken place since Roe vs. Wade was imposed upon us. Heart of
Jesus, bruised for our offenses, have mercy of us! We repent of the
grievous sin of abortion and all its consequences. Heart of Jesus, in
Whom are all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge, we give You all
who are involved in this preliminary vote, as well as those who are
fighting for the unborn, safeguard them from all evil. Bring us to an
even greater trust of You, as we prayerfully await the outcome of this
case and an end to abortion. AMEN.
Your friend in Christ,
