BI-WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL (APRIL 5-18, 2015): “ASKING FOR MORE”

By Lauren Muzyka

Verse(s): “Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” — Hebrews 4:16

Reflection: Do you ever hold back in prayer? Fail to pray bold prayers because you’re afraid that they won’t be answered?

I sometimes wonder if we would witness more miracles simply because we are unafraid to ask. Our Lord loves it when we approach him — as a little child would — full of wonder, hope and confidence, believing that He can do great things in our midst!

We know that the tragedy of abortion is a reality in our local community. But what would happen if our community began to pray bold prayers that asked him to change every heart and mind …and asked God to shut down our local abortion facility as soon as possible?

Do you believe it can happen? If not, what’s holding you back?

Faith Challenge: Our Father loves it when we ask Him to work miracles in our lives and communities! Be unafraid to pray bold prayers on behalf of women-in-need, abortion workers and that the facilit(ies) in your community would shut down forever!

Facilities closed: 

The permanent closure of an abortion or abortion-referral facility that had a Sidewalk Advocates for Life presence.

Workers who quit: 

An abortion worker who was influenced by prayer and sidewalk advocacy to leave the business. We refer all workers to And Then There Were None, a ministry that assists abortion workers in transitioning out of the industry.

 

Hopeful saves: 

A “hopeful save” is recorded when a pregnant woman leaves the abortion/abortion-referral facility still pregnant to “think about it,” armed with life-affirming literature and a referral to the local pregnancy resource center

 

Babies saved: 

A baby is recorded as a “save” when a pregnant woman accepts our offer of help at the local pregnancy resource center (PRC), verbally shares that she has chosen life, or gives us very clear signs that she has chosen life.
