The “Life Month” Resolution
We must and will remain diligent in our prayers regarding the war between Israel and Iran. We are praying for the defeat of evil, while also praying for mercy and protection to the Iranian and the Israeli people. God’s desire for the region is a great revival, for which I believe a free Iran can be a catalyst. I also feel we must be diligent to pray for protection here in America, as we know many terrorists came into our nation through Biden’s open borders. I believe prayer for this is urgent. We will pray over these things in just a few minutes.
However, I also have another very important matter to bring to your attention regarding the fight for life in America. The 1973 Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade did more to open the floodgates of evil in our nation than any other single event. It gave the principality of Baal, with its lust for violence and bloodshed, unprecedented influence in our nation. Personally, I believe the current level of violence and murder in our nation is directly linked to this. Jonah 2:8 tells us what happens when we reject the Lord and turn to idols: “Those who worship false gods turn their backs on all God’s mercies” (New Living Translation). The Living Bible offers the following poignant translation of this verse: “Those who worship false gods have turned their backs on all the mercies waiting for them from the Lord!”
When this evil verdict was rendered in 1973, America’s government chose death over life and servitude to Baal over the mercies of God. This heinous ruling was finally overturned on June 24, 2022. The verdict did not eliminate abortion in America, but did remove it as a national law and decree, allowing the states to decide on the issue. Consequently, the fruit of this bloodshed is not visited on the entire nation, but on the states and individuals who participate. Several states have taken strong actions to eliminate abortion, while others fight to preserve this sacrifice of children to Baal and his partner, Molech.
We are now being given another strategy with which to further defeat this evil in America. On June 5, Senator Ted Cruz introduced the “Life Month Resolution” on the floor of the U.S. Senate, along with Congressman Chris Smith leading the charge in the House. This resolution is a formal and public declaration that would designate the month of June, the month in which Roe v. Wade was overturned, as Life Month. It has not yet been voted on, nor has a date been set for a vote. You can see the entire resolution here.
Senator Cruz says that the resolution would:
Designate a “Life Month” annually;
Recognize that every human life is a sacred gift from God, possessing inherent dignity and worth;
Reaffirm the fundamental truth recognized in the Declaration of Independence that life is an unalienable right;
Commend individuals, parents, families, faith-based organizations, and communities who work to promote a culture of life; and
Urge policymakers to defend the sanctity of human life by enacting laws that protect the unborn and provide resources to empower women and families to choose life.(1)
It is hard to overstate the power of a Holy Spirit-led declaration (Job 22:28). Death and life are indeed in the power of the tongue (Proverbs 18:21). One of the ways we release the power of Holy Spirit dwelling within us is through declaring His words. Jesus demonstrated this when he was tempted by satan; He used the sword of the Spirit (Ephesians 6:17), stating repeatedly, “It is written…”
Imagine the power released if millions of Americans decreed and celebrated “Life!” over America every year throughout the month of June, rather than decreeing pride. It would be more than symbolic; it would be another blow to the diabolical stronghold of death in our nation.
How to Take Action
We need your help. We are asking everyone to:
Contact your own Representative in the House
Contact your two U.S. Senators
When you reach out, make these two clear requests:
You want your Senator and Representatives to co-sponsor the “Life Month Resolution”
As a constituent, you are urging Congress leadership to bring the resolution to the floor for a vote.
Citizens For Life has prepared everything you need to help spread the word! Email templates, talking points, scripts, and tools to contact your Representatives and Senators can be found here: Operation Life Month Tools.
Another easy way to obtain all the needed information directly is to text the word “LIFE” to 59090. This is the time to be bold and take a stand. This is the time to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves. This is the time to declare LIFE over our nation.
Let’s make history together.
Pray with me:
Father, we are peeling back layers of death and destruction in our nation. We have idolized pleasure, convenience, and ourselves; in doing so, we have forfeited Your mercies. Over sixty million babies have been sacrificed, anger and violence are prevalent in our land, and “truth has fallen in the street”( Isaiah 59:14). Our rebellion has given way to insanity – we not only kill the unborn, we now mutilate the born.
You are helping us reverse these curses and position ourselves for the healing of our land. In Your famous promise, You did NOT say if “sinners” or “unbelievers” would humble themselves and pray… You said if we, Your people, met these and the other qualifications, You would heal our land (2 Chronicles 7:14). Your people have and continue to do so. Now we ask You for more healing. Deliver us from our pride, rebellion, and confusion; restore life to us.
Move on the hearts of thousands, perhaps millions, of people to contact their legislators. It is such an easy way to make a difference. Give wisdom and a perfect strategy to those involved in passing this resolution. Give us the ratification of this legal decree in our nation, proclaiming the sanctity of life. And by faith, we now begin calling the month of June “Life Month.”
Also, today, we ask for supernatural help in defeating the evil in Iran. Remove wicked and oppressive rulers there, and free the people to live lives of liberty and justice. Send an earthshaking revival to that nation and cause it to spread to all of the Middle East. Turn the tables on the principality You referred to as “the prince of Persia” (Daniel 10:13, 20). You did so in Persia when Haman tried to resist You and destroy the Jews (the Book of Esther), and again in Daniel’s day when this spirit endeavored to stop the restoration of Israel (Daniel 10). Now we ask You to do it again. We ask for a complete dismantling of this principality’s rule and influence in the region. As Your voice on earth, we declare the people of Iran to be free from his control, in the name of Jesus.
We also ask for protection here in America. We know that individuals with evil intent entered our nation when the borders were open. We ask You to expose them, along with every plan they have developed to harm our nation and its citizens. Give great skill and supernatural help to those responsible for discovering those plans. We ask all of these things in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Our decree:
We decree that Jesus conquered death, and we will see the fruit of His victory in America.
