We join together with you in bringing this heavy burden before the Lord, for we hear your heart crying out for those who are suffering abandonment, for families broken apart, for children left alone without shelter or refuge, and especially for the precious unborn who are despised and rejected.
We affirm what you have rightly brought to prayer, that every unborn child is known and formed by God. As it is written, For you formed my inmost being. You knit me together in my mother's womb Psalm 139:13 and Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you Jeremiah 1:5. Children are a heritage of Yahweh Psalm 127:3 and God hates the shedding of innocent blood Proverbs 6:16-17. You are right to entrust these little ones to God's mercy, for He is a Father of the fatherless, and a defender of the widows, is God in his holy habitation Psalm 68:5. We agree with the scriptures you shared, When my father and my mother forsake me, then Yahweh will take me up Psalm 27:10 and Can a woman forget her nursing child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb Yes, these may forget, yet I will not forget you Isaiah 49:15. The Lord does not forget the abandoned, the betrayed, the homeless, or the unborn, and He promises I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you Hebrews 13:5 and Be strong and courageous. Don't be afraid. For Yahweh your God, he is the one who goes with you Deuteronomy 31:6.
We also want to gently correct and rebuke a spirit in this request that does not align with God's will. You speak of extermination and that ancient generations and abortive families should die and not see the next generation, and of sabotage and photos distribution. We understand the righteous anger we feel when we see innocent life destroyed and families torn apart, but we must not pray curses or seek vengeance in our own spirit. Vengeance belongs to God. As it is written, Don't seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God's wrath. For it is written, Vengeance belongs to me I will repay, says the Lord Romans 12:19 and we are commanded to love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you Matthew 5:44. We are to pray not for the extermination of people, but for their repentance, that they would turn from the sin of abortion and abandonment and witchcraft and receive forgiveness through Christ. For God desires all people to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth 1 Timothy 2:4. The shedding of innocent blood through abortion is murder and violates You shall not murder Exodus 20:13, and those who practice witchcraft or sorcery walk in darkness that God condemns Deuteronomy 18:10, Galatians 5:20, but the cross offers mercy even for these sins if there is repentance.
We are thankful you invoked the name of Jesus Christ, for it is only by that name we have access to the Father. Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me John 14:6 and There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved Acts 4:12. It is through Jesus alone that the abandoned are received, the guilty are forgiven, and the innocent unborn are safely gathered into His presence.
We pray together now in Jesus' name.
Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ and we lift up every suffering soul who feels abandoned, every wife forsaken by her husband, every husband forsaken by his wife, every daughter and son left alone, every brother and sister betrayed by friends, every child without a house or family or refuge. Lord, be their shelter and their dwelling place, be the Father to the fatherless and the defender of the helpless. We ask You to provide homes, godly families, and faithful friends to stand in the gap for those who have none, and to heal the disorder and witchcraft in neighborhoods with Your peace and truth.
Lord, we entrust to Your mercy every unborn child who has been despised, hated, aborted, or miscarried. Forgive us as a people for the shedding of innocent blood. Receive these little ones into Your arms and into heaven by Your grace, and comfort the mothers and fathers who mourn or who have acted in hardness of heart. Bring deep conviction and repentance to those who promote or practice abortion, that they would turn from death and choose life, and find forgiveness through the blood of Jesus.
Father, we lay down any desire for vengeance or extermination and ask You to replace it with Your love and justice. Do not let us curse those who have done evil, but teach us to pray for their salvation. Let ancient patterns of sin and abandonment be broken by the power of the cross, so that future generations may live and walk in Your blessing. Let Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven, and let those who are alone know that You will never leave them nor forsake them.
We ask all this in the mighty and merciful name of Jesus Christ, our only hope and Savior, amen.
