“Continue earnestly in prayer, being vigilant in it with thanksgiving; meanwhile praying also for us, that God would open to us a door for the word, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in chains, that I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak.” Colossians 4:2-4
This blog was started in 2013 as a prayer devotional to pray for those who have been impacted by abortion and as a platform to pray for the truth of life, hope, and healing, to be made known. In that original spirit, we will continue on in prayer and we ask in earnest for you to pray with us. The need is great.
It is our hope and prayer for all life to be valued and the truth of life in the womb to be realized. Sharing the truth about life in the womb is a focus throughout the world to prevent abortion, as it should be. This has been viewed as the front door and is needed.
Walking someone through healing after they have had an abortion has been considered the “back door” of prevention, in that those who have been healed are then free to be a voice for life and proclaim the truth of how abortion impacted their heart. Beautiful and powerful testimonies of how women and men were transformed by the forgiveness and grace of the blood of Jesus lead others into truth and freedom.
But what if the paradigm shifted? What if healing women who have had abortions and the men who fathered those children wasn’t the “back door”, but another “front door”? Two front doors. Both doors leading into a beautiful entry of hope, truth, and life.
Two front doors.
There is a world out there with women and men suffering from the pain of abortion. Their voices matter and there is a silent army out there waiting to be awakened. What if it was?
The life message is spread by a life that is healed.
Will you pray with us today?
Father, we pray that you would open for us a door for the the word to go forth about the truth of life, the truth of healing, the truth of the gospel. We pray we could speak the truth of those things hidden in Christ and make them clearly known, as is necessary that I speak. Lord, we ask for you to open the front doors to spread truth and healing. The life message is spread by a life that is healed. Lord, raise up an army of healed voices for life. In Jesus’ name.
