URGENT PRAYER REQUESTED FROM SOUTH DAKOTAN--PRAY ABORTION IS BANNED
My name is Amy Hofer, and I am a native South Dakotan working closely with the Bound4life, www.bound4life.com team, in Sioux Falls, SD.
We are fighting to uphold the total ban on abortion that this courageous state has initiated. This ban is coming to a vote on November 7.
The following is a plea for Dr. Patti Giebink's commercials on www.voteyesforlife.com. Our team had an opportunity to stop by and talk to Patti and pray with her last Friday, and many have entered into Esther fasting for Patti--that she would be protected and that she would rise up to do whatever the Lord would have her do further on this issue. You can go to the website to view the four TV commercials Patti Giebink has made; they are amazing!
Recently, South Dakota's last abortionist, Patti Giebink, went public on her stand for life. Dr. Patti Giebink was an abortionist at the Sioux Falls Planned Parenthood, and took over when another doctor was retiring. Now a Christian, Patti frequently serves on the mission field, and is working as an OB-GYN in a small South Dakota town. Since Patti was "separated" from Planned Parenthood, no other South Dakota physician will perform abortions there, and they import abortionists from Minnesota to the clinic in Sioux Falls, SD.
Patti has "stuck her neck out" by making a series of commercials against abortion. These are POWERFUL and again, can be viewed at www.voteyesforlife.com. Unfortunately, that is the only place that all of them can be viewed because the finances are not there for them to be broadcast.
At this time, only the first commercial is running. Commercial number four takes on the "rape and incest" deception, and does so logically and powerfully. Air time still has to be purchased and scheduled, and time is running so short. We know the enemy of our souls will do everything in his power to keep those commercials from running.
PRAY FOR SOUTH DAKOTA
PLEASE Pray through on this issue and see what the Lord would have you do. Support South Dakota however you can; we covet your prayers.
Please pray that the people of South Dakota will open their hearts and their pocketbooks. Please view the commercials, especially the third and fourth regarding "women's health" and "rape and incest," and see if you agree that they are a weapon in the Lord's hand to destroy the deception of the enemy once and for all. Donation information can be found on the Vote Yes for Life website: www.voteyesforlife.com.
Please pray for Dr. Giebink. She has taken an enormous step of faith, and she needs our prayer covering. Please continue to pray for the voters of South Dakota, that God's truth would set them free from all deception, and that they would vote righteously on November 7.
Be Blessed! Surely, this battle is the Lord's.

"My Back Was Healed Last Night"
Just a quick PRAISE REPORT for the healing power of Jesus Christ! Two days ago I was reaching to grab a box that was up high and it felt like I pulled a muscle (or something) on my right-side back ribs. This has happened to me a number of times over the past several years. It is very painful and usually takes several weeks to fully heal. However, this time it would be different!
It was hard to find a position, as I slept that night, where it did not hurt. Needless to say, I didn't get much sleep.
The next day was Sunday. We attended the Bethel Church in Redding that evening. The entire service was going to be focused on healing. At one point during the Praise and Worship time we were encouraged to dance. I enthusiastically joined in.
The service continued with words of knowledge being given about different infirmities God was going to heal. After we prayed for the maladies that were "called out", Bill Johnson said, "Go ahead and check yourselves and do something you couldn't do before".
Even though my back pain had not been "called out", I started moving around -- gingerly at first. To my surprise, my back no longer hurt! I moved into positions that were very painful before the worship time, but now I could not feel any pain. I tried my best to find a painful position, but there was none! It was then I realized I must have been healed during the dancing time earlier. Thank You Jesus!
There were 122 healings reported that night, ranging from migrain headaches, to arches being created in a man's formerly "flat"feet, along with several other feet/toe problems being healed, to deaf ears being opened, and a spine being properly aligned, just to name a few.
The miraculous healing touch of the Master's Hand on my back that night was wonderful. I slept unhindered by pain and have had none since. Truly He is a mighty God and I thank Him with all that is within me. Bless His Holy name!

VISION OF THE CHILDREN--THE GATES OF HELL WILL NOT PREVAIL
by Catherine Brown
INTRODUCTION TO THE VISION
I received this vision in 1998, but I have kept it away from the public domain until now. It is only after reading Steve Shultz' earnest and heartfelt cry to pray for our children that I feel this word may now be released globally. (To view the recent word by Steve published on The Elijah List, click (here).
It contains disturbing and graphic imagery, which depicts the reality of the enemy's horrific and relentless onslaught on our children and young people. I personally experienced deep revulsion at the evil it portrayed. In great distress of spirit, I prayerfully sought the Lord.
Since receiving the vision, the Lord has burdened me to intercede for the children of the nations, and I believe He will quicken many others to do likewise. With one voice we will call out unceasingly to the Throne of Grace, reclaiming the inheritance that has been stolen from the church--namely our children and young people. They are an essential part of the Body of Christ and we must raise our shields of faith around them.
With the unfolding horror of yet another attack that has been carried out on innocent Amish children in a school in the Pennsylvania, USA, it is appropriate that we unite our hearts in unity with Christ and each other, and pray until its power and victory breakthrough on a worldwide scale. May Jesus grant us grace and power for the days that lie ahead. To God be the glory.
THE RIVERBANK
The scene depicted demons of varying sizes and authority gathering on an enormous riverbank. They held fishing rods and nets, and were making preparations for a battle. In the distance I heard sounds of muffled warfare. Surrounding the river was a dense forest, where I discerned demons were hiding. The hordes of hell began to cast their rods and nets into the river, which was full of children.
THE ASSIGNMENT: TO DESTROY THE FIRST BORN AND TO KILL FAMILIES
I enquired of the Lord as to the nature of this evil assignment and He replied, "They have come to kill the firstborn sons, to destroy righteousness, and to kill families. This is their mission." And the Lord reminded me of how His Righteousness is displayed in families through the dominion mandate (Genesis 1:27-28). He reminded me that Righteousness is a never-failing stream, and that His sons are to be like oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of His splendor.
The scenes that followed, made me feel violently sick, and I wept asking the Lord to enlarge my capacity to endure as I clung to Him throughout the revelation. Some demons hooked little ones from the river, and beat these tiny infants by holding them by the ankles and battering their heads on the ground. I could not bear to watch, but the Spirit showed me these little ones ascending to incredible Glory--they were part of the number of martyrs.
The Lord held me tightly as more of the scene unfolded. Only a small number were martyred, but countless more were hooked from the water to be tormented and then thrown back in. Some were tortured while they were still in the river. Others lay inert and lifeless on the riverbanks.
I noted none of the devils were able to enter the river, but could only cast their rods and nets into the water from the riverbank. Vultures flew overhead, but they were not permitted to land on the river either. As I continued to pray, the Holy Spirit began to reveal the names of the demons.
THE HOLY SPIRIT REVEALS THE ENEMY
Demons of Death and Melancholy threw nets of darkness over the river, which hung like an icy fog over the water. Death attempted to freeze the waters, and I noticed some of the smaller children were extremely cold. These little ones wore only helmets of salvation (no other armor) and desperately needed the warmth of the fellowship of the Holy Spirit.
Smaller demons of Spite and Jealousy, threw swords to some of the children who paddled in the shallower waters, encouraging them to fight each other, to draw their swords against their brothers and sisters. These demons had been sent to splinter relationships within families, particularly between siblings.
I watched Bitterness pour a filthy sludge into the river to choke the children. Rage was also present, stirring up the waters, and the turbulence within the river was causing children to lose balance, topple over, and be swept away on the current.
Perversity and Pornography threw filth and every kind of abominable image at the children, and as a direct result, a number of the children became blind and stumbled around in the waters in great fear.
Beneath my feet I discerned a hideous evil presence--a demon named Murder slunk along on its belly, a shifting black shadow corrupting the earth it moved on. While some demons attempted to ensnare children who were already in the river, others joined ranks and formed a wall, laying traps along the pathway to the river.
I looked up from the river and focused my attention on the forest, where demons were attempting to remain undetected. I asked the Lord for their names. Immediately, eyes appeared in the woods, and the Lord named Insolence and Rebellion--both of whom were fairly small demons, trying unsuccessfully to hide behind a tree. Nonetheless, the Lord reminded me that these two lesser demons could wreak much havoc until they were exposed and dealt with by Him.
My attention returned to the river, where in desperation, I watched Obscenity muzzle children on the riverbanks, and then throw them back in, and their speech reduced to an almost silent muffle. I watched in agony of spirit, as a demon of Barrenness took a needle and sewed the mouths of the children shut making them mute.
A spirit of Lies shouted so loudly in some of the children's ears, that they became deaf and were unable to hear the voice of God. Still other ghouls battered the feet of the children, disabling some, and rendering others totally unable to walk and share the Gospel. Other demons dressed the children in clown outfits, spinning them round and ridiculing them. These poor children wore no Heavenly armor at all.
IN BROKENNESS, CALL FOR THE WIND AND THE FIRE OF GOD
My spirit experienced such devastation and desolation at the scene set before me, and in absolute bewilderment, I cried out to the Lord and asked Him to intervene. He replied:
"Call forth streams of Righteousness and mobilize the troops. Call for the sons of Righteousness. Pray for your sons and your daughters, call for many spiritual fathers and mothers. Call for My Wind and My Fire to cleanse the river and to purge this evil from the banks of the river."
THE PRAYERS OF UNITY AND REPENTANCE BEGIN
A multitude of parents began to gather on the riverbanks, many of whom wept uncontrollably as they searched for their lost children. The Lord permitted me to identify with their pain, and I was overcome and broken by the depth of it. I looked to the Lord and He said, "Child, this is only a fragment of the pain I feel over My children."
The adults reached out to one another, and holding hands tightly, they began to pray. Some fell to their faces and pounded the ground with their fists, their hearts full of repentance. During this time of intercession, the Lord revealed to the parents that some of them had given their children inheritances from Egypt (enslavement through idols).
Struck by conviction, they confessed their sin and received the Lord's healing and restoration. As men and women cried out to God in brokenness, angels were dispatched to the scene. An angel (unseen to the parents) approached each child and tenderly placed a mark on its foreheads--the mark of the living Lord. Immediately, the demons began to shrink back.
THE LIGHT OF CHRIST DEFEATS THE DARKNESS
The Holy Spirit came in power, and a mighty battle ensued. Men and women, who had previously been incapable of fighting, now took up their places in the Lord's army and began to fight. Angels and parents fought alongside one another to defeat the demons, some involved in hand-to-hand combat. The warfare was intense and matched the fervent desire to see the children set free from bondage. Overhead, vultures were knocked down by the incredible Light of the Lord's presence.
The people called for the Wind of God and His Fire. Suddenly, the Lord appeared riding on a chariot of clouds. He was resplendent in Glory and swathed in Righteousness. His eyes blazed with fire and from His mouth came a double-edged sword with which to avenge His children. With a mighty sweep of His hand, He smote the riverbank, and the earth shook and multitudes of demons were swallowed up in the tremors, as the Holy Spirit swept them completely away. The Lord stretched out His hand to the forest, which instantly was set alight by the cleansing fire of His purity and Holiness. Every demonic being was destroyed in the winnowing flames. The forest had been a place of many idols, but repentance had released the Lord's awesome redemption for the children.
RESTORATION FOR FAMILIES
With the battle over, I watched as parents were reunited with their children. Little ones that had once lain lifeless and inert on the riverbanks, now received the Breath of God. The Lord came to each one and they were immediately healed and restored. Families could be seen rising out of hopelessness, each wearing a beautiful breastplate of the Righteousness of Christ, fully clad in the Lord's armor with their crowns of salvation shining gloriously.
I glanced at the river as it flowed in full majestic force, its waters now crystal clear. Families danced and sparkled and resonated with a beautiful song "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who is, who was and who is yet to come." All around the atmosphere pervaded with the Holiness, Peace, and Righteousness of Jesus Christ the Messiah. The enemy was defeated and peace restored.
SUMMARY--WE MUST WAKE UP AND PRAY FOR OUR CHILDREN
The Lord is calling the church to wake up to the ferocious and relentless assault on His little ones. We must respond with all haste, and build a wall of holy protective fire around our children and young people through fervent and Holy Spirit inspired intercession.
This vision is not intended to honor evil by highlighting it, rather its purpose is to honor Christ by speaking the Light of His presence into the darkness, acknowledging that we enter spiritual battle from a point of victory, through the eternally redemptive Blood of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. The Lord wants to raise up an army of children and young people to go forth in His awesome Love and Power in these end times.
We must pray for them. The enemy is desperate to destroy them but his plans will not prevail--the Battle is the Lord's!
All Hail the Lamb, who reigns on High, His praise shall be our battle cry!
"I will cause your hordes to fall by the swords of mighty men--the most ruthless of all nations. They will shatter the pride of Egypt, and all her hordes will be overthrown. Then I will let her water settle and make her streams flow like oil declares the Sovereign Lord" Ezekiel 32: 12, 14.

More and More GREAT QUOTES
unknown and unfelt Christ; and the reason why congregations
have been so dead is, because they have had dead men
preaching to them." --Gilbert Tennent.
"Go for souls, and go for the worst!" --William Booth
"The noise was like the roar of Niagara. The vast sea of human
beings seemed to be agitated as if by a storm. I counted seven
ministers, all preaching at one time, some on stumps, others in
wagons and one standing on a treet which had, in falling, lodged
against another. ...I stepped up on a log where I could have a
better view of the surging sea of humanity. The scene that then
presented itself to my mind was indescribable. At one time I saw
at least five hundred swept down in a moment as if a battery of a
thousand guns had been opened upon them, and then immediately
followed shrieks and shouts that rent the very heavens." -- James
Finley, later a Methodist Circuit Rider / Cane Ridge Revival.
"The bars were not the only places to be emptied. Dance halls,
theaters, and football matches all saw a dramatic decline in
attendance. The courts and jails were deserted and the police
found themselves without any work to do. The story is told of
policemen who closed their station and formed a choir to sing at
the Revival meetings. Long-standing debts were repaid, church
and family feuds were healed and a new unity of purpose was felt
across denominational divides." -- The Welsh Revival of 1904.
"I have known people who prayed till they were soaked in sweat on
a cold winter's day. I have known people who have prayed for hours
until they were totally drained of strength because of the agony of
their souls. I have worked with a man of this calibre." --Charles Finney
"Can any deny that in the modern church setup the main cause of
anxiety is money? Yet that which tries the modern churches the
most, troubled the New Testament Church the least. Our accent is
on paying; theirs was on praying. When we have paid, the place is
taken; when they had prayed, the place was shaken!" --Leonard Ravenhill
"I value all things only by the price they shall gain in eternity."
- John Wesley
"Wherever riches have increased, the essence of religion has
decreased in the same proportion...as riches increase, so will
pride, anger, and love of the world in all its branches." --John Wesley
"When I have money, I get rid of it quickly, lest it find a way into
my heart." --John Wesley
"If Christians were not such cowards, and absolutely disobedient
to this plain command of God ('Thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy
neighbor, and not suffer sin upon him'), one thing would certainly
come of it--either they would be murdered in the streets as martyrs,
because men could not bear the intolerable presence of truth, or
they would be speedily converted to God." --Charles Finney.

More GREAT QUOTES:
the devil to damn souls. There's nothing on earth today so
deadening as preaching without heaven's anointing. Refrain from
preaching unless you know that the dew of heaven is on your soul."
-- Duncan Campbell
"Lastly--are not the Church in their present state, a standing,
public, perpetual denial of the gospel? Do they not stand out before
the world, as a living, unanswerable contradiction of the gospel;
and do more to harden sinners and lead them into a spirit of
caviling and infidelity, than all the efforts of professed infidels from
the beginning of the world to the present day?" --Charles Finney
"Whatever weakens your reason, impairs the tenderness of your
conscience, obscures your sense of God, or takes off the relish
for spiritual things then it is sin for you, however, innocent it may
be in itself." -- Suzanna Wesley
"Cowards never won heaven. Do not claim that you are begotten of
God and have His royal blood running in your veins unless you can
prove your lineage by this heroic spirit: to dare to be holy in spite
of men and devils." -- William Gurnall
"Christians don't tell lies - they just go to church and sing them."
--A.W. Tozer
"Any concept of grace that makes us feel more comfortable
sinning is not biblical grace. God's grace never encourages us to
live in sin, on the contrary, it empowers us to say no to sin and
yes to truth." -- Randy Alcorn
"It is perilously easy to have amazing sympathy with God's truth
and remain in sin." -- Oswald Chambers
"The vague and tenuous hope that God is too kind to punish the
ungodly has become a deadly opiate for the consciences of
millions." -- A.W. Tozer
"Get rid of this bunkum about the 'carnal Christian'. Forget it! If
you're carnal, you're not saved." -- Leonard Ravenhill
"An unholy church! it is useless to the world, and of no esteem
among men. It is an abomination, hell’s laughter, heaven’s
abhorrence. The worst evils which have ever come upon the world
have been brought upon her by an unholy church." -C.H. Spurgeon
“I am not afraid that the people called Methodists should ever
cease to exist either in Europe or America. But I am afraid lest
they should only exist as a dead sect, having the form of religion
without the power. And this undoubtedly will be the case unless
they hold fast both the doctrine, spirit, and discipline with which
they first set out.” -- John Wesley
“When I have money, I get rid of it quickly, lest it find a way into
my heart.” -- John Wesley.
From the journals of John Wesley:
"Sunday a.m., May 5 -Preached in St. Ann's; was asked not to
come back any more.
Sunday p.m., May 5- Preached at St. John's; deacons said, 'Get
out and stay out.'
Sunday a.m., May 12 - Preached at St. Jude's; can't go back
there either.
Sunday p.m., May 12-Preached at St. George's; kicked out again.
Sunday a.m., May 19- Preached at St. Somebody Else's;
deacons called a special meeting and said I couldn't return.
Sunday p.m., May 19 - Preached on the street; kicked off the
street.
Sunday a.m., May 26- Preached out in a meadow; chased out of
meadow when a bull was turned loose during the service.
Sunday a.m., June 2- Preached out at the edge of town; kicked
off the highway.
Sunday p.m., June 2- Afternoon service, preached in pasture;
10,000 people came." --John Wesley.

A NEW SOUND IS BEING RELEASED TODAY--HE WHO HAS EARS TO HEAR, LET HIM HEAR
By JoAnn McFatter
It Takes God to Hear God
Sound is a profound thing when understood and utilized in its fullness. Mankind has barely begun to realize the effect it has on our body, mind, and spirit. During the days of the harvest, we must grasp the implications of sound relative to the triune nature of man.
The Scripture records the Lord oftentimes saying, "He who has ears to hear, let him hear." This clearly implies that we can have ears, yet do not hear. (Matthew 11:15, 13:9, 13:43, Mark 4:9, 4:23, Luke 8:8, 14:35.) It's a statement made to highlight a point, much like, "Truly, truly I say to you."
That particular line of thought is taken even further in Romans 11:8 saying, "just as it is written, 'God has given them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, to this very day.'"
During days of apostasy, God at times even closes our ears to what is being said. Yikes! It needs to be a conscious prayer of ours that He would open our ears to what the Spirit is saying in this hour. Just like it takes God to love God, it takes God to hear God. We would be wise to ask Him to do that in us.
The Act of Hearing
It is reported that our own minds can close our ears to certain sound frequencies. If fact, if you have been exposed to someone who constantly says things to you that you don't want to hear, things that berate you, your ear will stop itself from ingesting, so to speak, the frequency levels of that person's voice. It could affect your hearing the rest of your life. Fortunately, they are now coming up with treatment to repair the damage. It's just something a person does to survive the sound that is causing death in them. That is why it is so important what we speak over our children.
There are numerous studies being conducted today involving sound and vibration, and it's affect on us. Organs can be affected positively or negatively by sound and yes, by even music. The Spirit has been showing me some very interesting things about our hearing that we need to be aware of. Many times, Paul warned the saints about what they listened to that would lead them astray. We are approaching the day that "Even the very elect would be fooled" if God did not intervene.
Now, I'm not trying to scare you, but I feel like we need to be educated in some of these things to make the most of what God gave us to use. We often hear that "the new sound" or "the sound of Heaven" is about to be released. What if we don't have ears to hear it? In the last article, I referenced a vision that I had of the people working in the field and a few of them heard a sound that the rest did not. (Click here to view JoAnn's last article published on The Elijah List.)
Actually, our ear is much more than something we hear with. When a fetus is in the womb, the ear is the first sensory organ to be fully developed and there is a reason for that. When sound enters the ear, it goes through an amazing technical process that actually turns it into electrical impulses which charge the brain.
In a fetus, this charge actually causes the brain to grow as early as 4 ½ months. There is a muscle that is activated at this point inside the ear that never rests until you die. This is the only muscle in the entire body that this is true of. We literally "absorb" sound non-stop until the day we die.
The Mechanics of Hearing
There is a cranial nerve attached to both sides of the eardrum that extends throughout the body and is attached to every organ except the spleen. To some extent, what we hear with our ears affects every organ in our body. We not only hear by sound being transferred through the air, but also through our skin and bones. Our entire body takes in sound in one way or another.
Jeremiah declared, "His word was in my heart like a burning fire shut up in my bones. I was weary of holding it back and I could not" Jeremiah 20:9.
There is a spiritual and natural implication to this verse. The sound of God's word had entered his bones and he was compelled to let it out. Have you ever felt like that? I certainly have--especially during time of intense worship. This truth can give us even greater understanding of Ezekiel's vision of the dry bones. He was told to, "Prophecy to these bones and say to them, 'O dry bones, hear the word of the Lord!'" Ezekiel 37:4
He is commanding the bones to hear a sound--a particular sound that they might live. Is that "the sound" that is being released today? A sound that causes spiritually dry bones to come together and produce life!
It is interesting that the bones are dry, because water is one of the most effective conductors of sound. I remember "communicating" with my first son while he was in my womb, by lying in the bath tub full of water. I would knock on one side of the tub and he would shift to that side of my belly. Then I would knock on the other side of the tub and he would move to that side. It was a game I played with him--a way of interacting with him. Because the child is in a sack of water in the womb, the water outside the womb was most effective.
Natural and Spiritual
As it is in the natural, so it is in the spirit. The words we listen to and the sounds we allow to wash over us, affect us in diverse ways. Jeremiah 6:10 says, "indeed their ear is uncircumcised and they cannot heed." If we do not have God's Spirit flourishing in us, our ears remain uncircumcised; Jeremiah says they CANNOT heed. It's not that we just choose not to, it's just not possible.
We can have uncircumcised hearts as well as ears. We must learn to hear what the Spirit is saying in this hour, particularly in a day when we are given the warning that even the very elect would be fooled apart from the Lord's intervention.
Lord, cause our hearts and ears to be circumcised that we may hear with understanding, Your sounds!
What is Our Sound?
Sound is measured by vibratory frequencies. Science has discovered that we all vibrate at a certain frequency. They are presently determining how to take the frequency of an individual, and convert it to audible sound. There is actually music that each of us carries within our being at sound frequencies that are inaudible to the natural ear, but are sensed by those around us--even by creation itself.
Do we resonate with His Truth? Do we echo the sound of the Spirit? Perhaps, the more of Him that resonates in us causes us to "sound" just like Him and become one with Him.
These are all things to ponder as we attempt to hear the sound that is being released today in this "divine exchange" between Heaven and earth. This realization is only going to increase...
"He who has ears to hear, let him hear what the Spirit is saying."

EMERGENCY PRAYER FOR SUPREME COURT FROM LOU ENGLE
From Lou Engle
Emergency Prayer for Supreme Court -- next 24 hours
PLEASE FORWARD THIS EMAIL ON TO OTHER INTERCESSORS!
I am here in Washington, DC where 70 to 100 intercessors have been standing 24 hours a day before the Supreme Court since Monday (Yom Kippur).
**The next 24 hours are CRITICAL for the Supreme Court!**
THIS IS THE LAST CHANCE FOR THIS COURT TO DECIDE!
They must decide by tomorrow whether or not they will hear Doe v. Bolton, the companion case to Roe v. Wade that made abortion on demand legal and is a cornerstone of legalized abortion.
If they decide not to hear this case, it cannot be revisited for 8 more years!
Two years ago, they refused to hear Roe. It was "denied without comment." We can't let this happen again!
To read more about this case, go to http://www.Bound4life.com/doe The lawyer on this case, Alan Parker from the Justice Foundation, has specifically asked us to pray for them.
They will be presenting over 5,300 pages of eviden ce and sworn testimony from 1,000 women hurt by abortion as well as sworn testimony by abortion facility workers, scientific and medical experts, and over 300 citations from scientific and medical articles. The motion also asks that Roe v. Wade be reversed and is accompanied by the affidavit of Norma McCorvey, who was Jane Roe of Roe v. Wade.
Two nights ago, a prayer activist at JHOP had a very clear dream that indicated to us that Justice Scalia was going to be key in the decision of whether or not to hear this case. Please pray fervently for this man as well as for the three other justices who need to concur with him in order for this case to be heard.
We feel that God is giving us the opportunity to agree with His heart and shift this Court to righteousness and justice.
http://www.Bound4life.com/emergency
These next few hours are make-or-break for this critically important case.
For LIFE,
Lou
PLEASE FORWARD THIS EMAIL ON TO EVERY OTHER INTERCESSOR YOU KNOW!
