God's Promises for You
On January 22, 1973 The Supreme Court of the the United States in a 7- 2 decision affirmed the legality of a woman's right to have an abortion under the 14th amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America
The heart of a child begins to beat 9 days after conception; the abortion of an innocent unborn child destroys by choice the life of the child
For 100 days "God's Promises for You" will be devoted to scripture based prayer to stop the abortion of innocent unborn children
Cami's Story
Please enjoy reading Cami's Story at the end of God's Promises
Since January 22, 1973 nearly 60 million innocent unborn children have been aborted in the United States
There have been almost 1.5 Billion abortions in the world since 1980

Day Eleven
Daniel 3:16 - 18 (NKJV)
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego answered and said to the king, "O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter. If that is the case, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from your hand, O king. But if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we do not serve your gods, nor will we worship the gold image which you have set up."
These 3 men were faced with a choice, deny their God whom they served or be thrown into the fiery furnace, certain death, or so the king thought; and they choose God
The woman with, for whatever reason, an unwanted child in her belly, is also faced with a choice, let us pray that she, just like Cami, will put her trust in God and bring God's creation into this world
The 3 men stood with Jesus by their side in the midst of the fiery furnace and no harm came to them, and by the way the king came to know Jesus as his Lord and as his Savior, Jesus will stand beside and protect the woman and the unborn child just as He did for the 3 men

Day Twelve
"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you," says the LORD, "thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope."
God's plan for the unborn child in the womb of a woman was for the child to have a future and a hope, and His plan is the same for the woman

Day Thirteen
Psalm 91:15 & 16 (NKJV)
"He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him. With long life I will satisfy him, and show him My salvation."
All of the above because David set his love upon the LORD and knew His name - Father
God is no respecter of people, He is there for the woman who calls her Father by name and sets her love upon Him - He will help her make the correct choice
January 14, 2017
Day Fourteen
Proverbs 3:5 & 6 (NKJV)
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.
Trust God, He will guide you, you can make the correct choice, every unborn child deserves a chance to live and become all God intended them to be
January 15, 2017
Day Fifteen
Psalm 1:1 & 2 (NKJV)
Blessed is the man (woman) who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful; but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and in His law he meditates day and night.
Great advice to us all - avoid evil and embrace Jesus - make better choices in life
January 16, 2017
Day Sixteen
Mark 6:7 (NKJV)
And He called the twelve to Himself, and began to send them out two by two, and gave them power over unclean spirits.
There is no spirit more unclean than the evil spirit who would deceive a woman into believing that the destruction of the unborn child in her belly was a choice
January 17, 2017
Day Seventeen
Philippians 3:14 (NKJV)
I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
The Apostle Paul knew that the past was not of interest to Jesus, Jesus is 100% committed to our future with Him, it is Jesus who whispers to both the woman and the unborn child, "I have a plan for your life and you have a future with Me!"
January 18, 2017
Day Eighteen
John 14:15 (NKJV)
"If you love Me, keep My commandments."
And His commandments were all about loving each other as He loved us - Cami's mother loved her before she ever set eyes upon her
January 19, 2017
Day Nineteen
Matthew 26:39 (NKJV)
He went a little farther and fell on His face, and prayed, saying, "O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me, nevertheless, not as I will, but as you will."
Jesus taught us all a very valuable lesson, being obedient to the will of our Father is always the most beneficial plan

Day Twenty
Romans 8:11 (NKJV)
He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.
Jesus lives and His prayer for each of us and especially the unborn child is that we live and enjoy the fullness of Him
Abba, Father You commanded - "You shall not murder!" (Exodus 20:13) and yet every day women around the world make a choice to prematurely end the life of an innocent unborn child, with great thanks we pray Your unconditional love and forgiveness over the women who have made or have considered making these choices and the men who encourage them to do so, we also pray that women and men throughout the world will make the correct choice, that they will know Your Son Jesus Christ and that their eyes of understanding will be enlightened to the hope of His calling, the glory of His inheritance and the exceeding greatness of His power toward those who believe in Him; it is in the name of our Lord and our Savior Christ Jesus, the One who gives us life, that we rejoice and pray. Amen.
He did not know me, but he hated me. In fact, he tried to kill me and I could not even defend myself. A woman in a flannel nightgown, her mother, a caring neighbor and Jesus defended me. The Lord says that even when my father or mother forsake me, He (Jesus) will take me up. The word forsake means to renounce, cast aside, or abandon, my father forsook me. Jesus took me up.
My father and mother married when my mother was 17. My father owned a country and western bar in town and enjoyed the lifestyle that came with it. My mother was beautiful and an award winning western dancer. In the first year of their marriage my mother became pregnant and while my mother was overjoyed, my father was furious. From the moment he knew of me, he hated me, I represented to him the end of freedom to enjoy the lifestyle he loved.
Once my father knew of me he plotted to have me killed. My mother was young and he thought she would easily go along with his plan to abort me. What he did not realize was that from the time she was a small child her parents had been building in her a firm spiritual foundation based on God's Truth.
My mother turned away every suggestion my father made to abort me. Then my father threatened my mother with divorce and she became afraid, how would she be able to take care of a new born baby? Maybe she should agree to the abortion she thought. So she went to my aunt (her sister) for advice and my aunt said under no circumstances should she have an abortion, together as a family they would make it by trusting God.
My father filed for divorce and my mother moved in with her parents (my grandparents). During this time my father continued to come around trying to get my mother to go with him to a clinic and have an abortion. He even tried to bribe my mother with offers of gifts if she would have the abortion. Many times my grandfather would have to chase my father away and one time when my father refused to leave my grandfather had him arrested.
Through all this my mother (6 and 1/2 months pregnant) was still in love with my father and hopeful that he would have a change of heart. One night my father called and told my mother that he wanted to get back together. He asked her to come over to his house to discuss reconciliation. My mother, however, was ready for bed wearing her favorite flannel night gown so she asked my grandmother to drive her over to his house so she could meet with my father. When they got to my father's house, my mother got out of the car and went to the front door, but just before she knocked the Holy Spirit stopped her. As she turned to go back to the car the front door opened and my father grabbed her by the hair and drug her into the house. By the time my grandmother got into the house my father was punching and kicking my mother in the stomach in an attempt to force the abortion. My grandmother, much like Jesus on the Cross, fell upon my mother and covering us with her body, she took for us the punches and kicks my father intended for my abortion.
The commotion alerted a neighbor and she called the police and when they arrived they found both my mother and my grandmother badly beaten and rushed them to the hospital. Upon admittance it was discovered that I had no heartbeat, my mother was told that I was possibly dead and for 12 hours my mother laid in the hospital bed praying for my life. Jesus came that I would have life and have it more abundantly and today I am very much alive with two beautiful children. Life and death is in the power of the tongue and I was blessed to have a mother, an aunt, and a grandmother that all spoke life.
In Jesus we have God's unconditional love and unconditional forgiveness, in Jesus there is no condemnation, just love and forgiveness. God gives each of us the ability to make choices, He asks only that we be guided by His Word and He gives us the Holy Spirit to guide us in His truth. A woman can make a choice to have an abortion but in doing so she is making a choice to destroy the life of an innocent unborn child, a child God has created for good. Please, make a choice for life and please continue to pray - Help stop the abortion of innocent unborn children today.
