August 18, 2023: Psalm 139:15 - God Saw Us in Our Mother's Womb
“My frame was not hidden from You, when I was made in secret, and skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.” - Psalm 139:15
Eternal God, Creator of the heavens and the earth and all that is in them, I thank You for creating me, for having a purpose for my life while I was yet in my mother’s womb, just as You created all human beings and have a purpose for every one of us. You counted my days before I even took my first breath. You breathed life into me, and I give You praise.
No other creation is there like the human body. You made us in Your image, male and female You created us. You formed us perfectly so that together we would unite as husband and wife, becoming one flesh so that we would populate the earth which You created for us.
You are quick to forgive us of our sins and slow to rise to anger. You knew that in the beginning, we would fall to temptation and yet, You still created us and You had a plan of redemption, and His name is Jesus Christ.
Oh Lord God, how we have sinned against You! We have murdered hundreds of millions of innocents while they were yet in their mothers’ wombs, quickly discarding all the beautiful precious souls created by You. Almighty God, my heart breaks for the mothers who chose this act of violence against Your children. I pray for the women and also the men who made that choice, who were deceived by the evil one, and who chose to ignore Your still small voice, the voice of reason and truth. How I pray that they would turn from their sins and turn to Jesus and be saved from their sins and freed from the guilt of shedding the blood of their own flesh.
Heavenly Father, I pray they will hear and heed the words of Jesus that He spoke to Paul and would turn from darkness to light:
“… to open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.” (Jesus Christ; Acts 26:18)
I pray that someone reading this will see that each of us is a sinner and that forgiveness of sins is found only in You, just as the prophet Isaiah wrote, and that they will turn to You and be saved, before it’s too late:
“Seek the LORD while He may be found, call upon Him while He is near. Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; let him return to the LORD, and He will have mercy on him; and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.” (Isaiah 55:6-7)
Oh God, I know that Your judgment is coming upon the world and on our nation, the United States, because of our deep sins we have committed against You. I thank You for the mercy and the longsuffering You have shown to us when we do not deserve it. How I pray that all people who have supported abortion and now even worse, the murder of a child even after the child is born, will see the horror and atrocities that we have committed against You, and that we will realize that our nation and the world are on the path to destruction because we have chosen the wide gate that leads to destruction. I pray for the false teachers and false prophets who claim to be saved by Jesus and yet promote abortion, even their own “churches.” I believe that as Your word told us would come in the end times before Jesus’ return, these are apostates and are truly wolves in sheep’s clothing, leading many down the broad way that leads to destruction. I pray that people attending these synagogues of Satan would be awakened to the truth that these apostates are workers of iniquity and would flee them en masse. I pray that they would get off of the broad way and get on the narrow way:
“Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.” (Jesus Christ; Matthew 7:13-14)
Almighty God, as it is Your hand that formed each and every one of us in our mother’s womb, it is also Your hand that will bring swift judgment upon our nation and our world. The only thing that can save us is that we would turn from our sins and to turn to Jesus. I know that You will show grace to those who do, but for those who don’t, as their blood is on the innocent children they chose to murder, so will be their blood upon themselves if they continue remain in darkness rather than light.
Oh Lord God, hear my prayer! I pray all these things that You may be magnified, and I give You all praise, honor, and glory!
In Jesus’ loving and merciful name, I pray. Amen.
“For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.” (Jesus Christ; John 3:17-21) ✝️
