1 baby is is killed in the safety of his/her mother’s womb by the devastating act of abortion every 30 seconds in the United States alone. That is nearly 3,000 innocent lives taken each day in our county! A child is not a choice and, yes, abortion is murder. As Christians, may we have the boldness to be a voice for the voiceless, protect the pre-born child, and stand for God-given life. Will you be a voice for the voiceless?

Open your mouth for the speechless, In the cause of all who are appointed to die. Open your mouth, judge righteously, And plead the cause of the poor and needy.-Proverbs31:8

For any woman contemplating abortion, please don’t kill your baby! Choose life.❤️ You will never regret it! There are people who want to help you. Find helpful resources at 180movie.com

Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!-Is 5:20

It is said 1 in 4 women will have an abortion before the age 45. Perhaps you have had an abortion… The guilt, depression, and void will follow you your entire life apart from forgiveness and redemption found in Christ Jesus. The good news is, through Jesus Christ we are offered forgiveness for ALL our sins! “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8. He promises to cleanse us from all unrighteousness as we repent before Him, confessing our sins. “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:9! If you have repented and trusted in Jesus, then your sins are forgiven and you are a new creation in Christ Jesus. Visit NeedGod.com!

Psalms 138:8

✨It’s Monday!! ✨🙌🏻 Started the day out in the Word and was completely renewed by His Truth and the promises found within!! It prepared me for the busy day! If you don’t already, I can’t encourage you enough to make a goal of starting your day off in His Living Word. Before you set eyes on your phone notifications or jump into the day’s work or even before your feet even touch the ground(if possible-I know many mom’s have their feet touching the ground all night and morning to care for their precious little ones), nourish your soul and renew it in the Word of God! I love how Jeremiah 15:16 puts it, “Thy Words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O Lord God of hosts.” 💗

An extremely simple and practical tip I’ve found helps me prioritize my Bible reading is using an actual physical Bible when doing my morning and evening reading. the Bible apps are great tools and come in handy but believe me… the detraction of notifications is real(can I hear a few amens?!😉) I will keep my main bible on my nightstand next to my bed so it’s ready to greet me when I wake up. Ok, back to work here!

QUESTION: I would love to hear what books of the Bible you are enjoying today and leave some helpful tips on getting His Word in first thing in the morning!! Drop a comment in the comment section below!👇🏻👇🏻

“He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle that was against me: for there were many with me.”
Psalm 55:18

✨“Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath: That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil; Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.”
‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭6:17-20‬ ‭

“Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.”
‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭12:1-2‬ ‭

Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.” 2 Corinthians 12:9-10✨Amen! 🙌🏻 That is a promise I am holding on to as I bodly walk into 2020 in His perfect Strength!
