Final Week 7: United In Prayer and Fasting to End Abortion In New Mexico

Albuquerque, NM- As we conclude this united prayer and fasting campaign to end abortion in New Mexico, trusting the words of Jesus (Matthew 17:14-21) that some deeply entrenched demonic strongholds can only be cast out, “except by prayer and fasting.” Over the past 7 weeks we have seen droughts broken, the desire to break generational curses from a member of Curtis Boyd’s family, confirmation of an investigation by the New Mexico Medical Board into the abortion related death of a local woman at the hands of late term abortionist Curtis Boyd, this effort has crossed the border from New Mexico into Texas the birthplace of abortion and the birthplace of Boyd’s baby killing empire. We believe strongholds are being broken by the Lord as we have prayed and fasted together in this united effort!

One thing that is sorely lacking in New Mexico as we move forward is the need for bold pro-life leadership in state government. This week we stood in solidarity with Congressman Steve Pearce as the pro-life candidate for Governor which represents a positive shift that even local media recognizes as significant. As we wrap up this initial prayer and fasting effort we want to make sure that what has been cast out as a result of these efforts is not replaced with that which is more evil as is described in Matthew 12. We must replace the evil with good righteous leaders and continue to keep pro-life efforts united with the goal of ending all abortions in New Mexico ensuring that every pre-born child is valued and protected.

Please join with us in this last week of prayer and fasting asking the Lord to appoint pro-life leaders to fill the void in state leadership as we approach the upcoming election later this year.

This week’s final scripture reading is from, Matthew 12:43-45

“This evil nation is like a man possessed by a demon. For if the demon leaves, it goes into the deserts for a while, seeking rest but finding none. Then it says, ‘I will return to the man I came from.’ So it returns and finds the man’s heart clean but empty! Then the demon finds seven other spirits more evil than itself, and all enter the man and live in him. And so he is worse off than before.”

Some may choose to fast from sunrise to sunset.
Others may choose to fast from 6:00am-3:00pm as a partial fast.
For others, a fast might be one full meal for the day, as well as two smaller meals that together are not equal to a full meal.
