“A CALL TO THE WALL…ONE NATION UNDER GOD” 

1-712-770-4340 Code: 543555 # 

“Sing to the Lord, all the earth; proclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day.

Declare His glory among the nations, His wonders among all peoples.”

1 Chronicles 16:23-24

Let us start the hour in corporate prayer, praising and giving thanks to God! 

 The key assignment for the 24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call is to intercede hourly for the safety and security of our President Donald John Trump and to pray for that which pertains to our nation!

We pray for our President’s protection and cover him with the Blood of Jesus.

We pray that he will respond to every situation by the leading of the Holy Spirit!

We bless our First Lady, Melania, their marriage, their son Barron and all their family members.

We bless our Vice President Mike Pence, his wife Karen and their family 

and all those serving in this Administration. 

We speak wisdom and courage to the Federal Reserve Board members. 

May they serve with integrity and honor, doing what’s right for our nation’s economy! 

The 24/7 NSPC is praying for the 2020 National Elections, positioning ourselves in prayer before the Lord

on behalf of our President and nation! COUNTDOWN: 444 days until the election! 

Let us pray into this verse:

“The integrity of the upright will guide them, but the perversity of the unfaithful will destroy them.”

Proverbs 11:3 

Strategic Focus for Sunday 

WELCOME THE KING OF GLORY INTO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

Pelosi Challenged to Condemn Abortion or Leave the Catholic Church

“In the fear of the Lord there is strong confidence, and His children will have a place of refuge.”

Proverbs 14:26

We are facing a crisis of life in this nation, and those who are in power, who are supposed to be protecting our people, especially the most vulnerable among us…infants in the womb…have turned a deaf ear to the cries of the HOLY INNOCENTS of this century. Since the 1973 Roe v Wade ruling, over 61 Million babies in the United States have been senselessly slaughtered by abortionists…almost 600 K this year alone! 

We pray:

• Thank God that we now have the most pro-life President in history! We bless and affirm our President, Donald Trump, who respects LIFE and has taken steps to protect life from his first day in office!
• That he will have the support of the American people, who will see his heart and rally around him, encouraging him every step of the way! We of the 24/7 NSPC do that, as well! 

One of the most prominent pro-life leaders in America is Fr. Frank Pavone, a “driving force” in bringing together those working in the pro-life movement. For years he’s united organizations fighting for the rights of our unborn brothers and sisters, and thanks to his and others’ tireless efforts, the pro-life community’s effort has become highly effective. 

Fr. Frank is the National Director of Priests for Life, the largest pro-life ministry of the Catholic Church. He also serves as the President of the National Pro-life Religious Council, and is the National Pastoral Director of the Silent No More Awareness Campaign and Rachel’s Vineyard, the world’s largest ministry of healing after abortion. 

• Norma McCorvey, the “Jane Roe” of the Supreme Court’s Roe v. Wade abortion decision, said that Fr. Frank was “the catalyst” that God used in bringing her to faith! 
• Dr. Alveda King, Martin Luther King’s niece, the Director of the African-American Outreach for Priests for Life, says that when she met Father Frank, the two found themselves in agreement that “the fight for all human life, from conception until natural death, is the most pressing civil rights and human rights issue of our time.” They have been working together ever since!

We pray:

• For Fr. Frank Pavone, Alveda King, Cindy Collins, Allan Parker and all those who are on the front lines for LIFE! Bless, encourage and strengthen them in their daily battle against the forces of wickedness that would take LIFE! 

LifeNews reported on Fr. Frank’s letter to House Democratic Leader, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, in which he asked her to revise her pro-abortion position…to make it conform to the pro-life teachings of the Catholic Church…or to leave the Church. Fr. Pavone followed up his letter with a weekend appearance on Fox, where he made his case. 

Please read through the entire text of Fr. Pavone’s “open letter” to Pelosi, and then go back and pray into specific points, asking God to deal with her and all others who hide behind masks of so-called “faith”! 

Dear Mrs. Pelosi,

Last Thursday…you were asked a question in a press briefing that you declined to answer. The question was, “What is the moral difference between what Dr. Gosnell did to a baby born alive at 23 weeks and aborting her moments before birth?” Given the fact that the Gosnell case has been national news for months now, and that Congress, where you serve as House Democratic Leader, was about to have a vote on banning abortion after 20 weeks fetal age, this was a legitimate question.

Instead of even attempting to answer the question, you resorted to judgmental ad hominem attacks on the reporter who asked it, saying, “You obviously have an agenda. You’re not interested in having an answer.” Mrs. Pelosi, the problem is that you’re not interested in giving an answer.

Your refusal to answer this question is consistent with your failure to provide an answer to a similar question from me and the members of my Priests for Life staff. Several years ago, we visited your office with the diagrams of dismemberment abortion at 23 weeks, and asked the simple question, “When you say the word ‘abortion,’ is this what you mean?” In response, nothing but silence has emanated from your office.

In what way is this refusal to address an issue of such national importance consistent with the leadership role you are supposed to be exercising? Public servants are supposed to be able to tell the difference between serving the public and killing the public. Apparently, you can’t. Otherwise, you would have been able to explain the difference between a legal medical procedure that kills a baby inside the womb and an act of murder — for which Dr. Gosnell is now serving life sentences — for killing the same baby outside the womb.

Moreover, you stated at the press briefing on June 13, “As a practicing and respectful Catholic, this is sacred ground to me when we talk about this. I don’t think it should have anything to do with politics.” With this statement, you make a mockery of the Catholic faith and of the tens of millions of Americans who consider themselves “practicing and respectful Catholics” and who find the killing of children — whether inside or outside the womb — reprehensible.

You speak here of Catholic faith as if it is supposed to hide us from reality instead of lead us to face reality, as if it is supposed to confuse basic moral truths instead of clarify them, and as if it is supposed to help us escape the hard moral questions of life rather than help us confront them. Whatever Catholic faith you claim to respect and practice, it is not the faith that the Catholic Church teaches. And I speak for countless Catholics when I say that it’s time for you to stop speaking as if it were.

Abortion is not sacred ground; it is sacrilegious ground. To imagine God giving the slightest approval to an act that dismembers a child he created is offensive to both faith and reason.

And to say that a question about the difference between a legal medical procedure and murder should not “have anything to do with politics” reveals a profound failure to understand your own political responsibilities, which start with the duty to secure the God-given right to life of every citizen.

Mrs. Pelosi, for decades you have gotten away with betraying and misrepresenting the Catholic faith as well as the responsibilities of public office. We have had enough of it. Either exercise your duties as a public servant and a Catholic, or have the honesty to formally renounce them.

Sincerely,

Fr. Frank Pavone

National Director, Priests for Life

Please pray as led by the Holy Spirit into this most sensitive of focus topics!

Also, please pray:

• For our President to continue to take action to uphold and preserve life…while the children are still in the womb and after they have been delivered alive! We say: “NO! to abortion and infanticide!” 
• For those who make laws that support the culture of death and refuse to protect and defend our children…let them repent or be removed!
• For those who have had abortions, that they might know the truth of God’s love and forgiveness and receive His grace and healing!
• For this nation, that we as a people may rise up and renounce abortion and cause the laws to be changed in every state, to uphold life and protect our babies!

Specific Prayer Topic for Today

Praying for the Congress of the United States: Senate and House of Representatives

The Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act H.R. 962 – S.311: On April 2, 2019, the petition was made available for Members to sign. Started by Whip Steve Scalise (R-LA) and Rep. Ann Wagner (R-MO), members of the GOP conference formed a line behind Rep. Wagner to sign the petition. As of the end of the final vote series, 201 members have signed, including two Democrats. If the petition is signed by a simple majority of House Members (218), a motion to discharge can be offered on the floor. The petition will be available to be signed throughout the remainder of the 116th Congress. To reach 218, 21 Democrats must join the 197 Republicans currently serving in the House. Three Democrats have already co-sponsored this bill. 

We pray:

• For the remaining signatures to come in, and for this bill…and other pro-life bills that are being put forward to protect our children… will be passed!

Note: We will not tolerate any demonic interference on the 24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call. Any time it is necessary, the facilitator, in agreement with those on the line, will bind all forces of evil and cast them down into the abyss, then pray a shield of protection over this line and our 24/7 family!
