We Don’t Need an Abortion Ban

Exactly one week after giving birth to my 4th child I took a break from my social media hiatus and I was really surprised to see the trending topic on my timeline being about abortion. I was even more shocked to see that a lot of women were digitally protesting on their Facebook pages in favor of legalized abortions. These are women who I thought were believers in Christ, believers in the Holy Bible. Yet their view on abortions did not align with Yah’s word.

I shouldn’t be surprised by this when I take a look at the moral state of America and see how more and more of it’s laws and values directly contradict with Yah’s law. Still the purpose of this message is not to debate political law in America. In fact this message is to argue that we don’t need to rely on a government that has historically rebelled against Yah’s Law to uphold His Law.

What Yah has spoken and established is enough and should be the final authority for those who profess Him as their God.

Just a reminder here is Yah’s legislation on the matter of abortion. (If you want to argue about it, He is always listening to your prayers)

“Thou Shall Not Kill”- Exodus 20:13

This is the one of the first 10 Laws that Yah established for His people to follow and I’m pretty sure unborn children were included in that command.

Secondly let’s take a look at one of the detestable sins outlined in the Bible:

“hands that shed innocent blood”- Proverbs 6:17

There is no blood more innocent than that of an unborn child. This is a sin that our Father finds as detestable and that He absolutely hates.

As you can see from the referenced scriptures, murder is already a crime in the eyes of Yah and was established as illegal long before any earthly government decided to try to enforce it.

It is beneficial to reside in a country that honors Yah’s Laws however that isn’t the culture in America. On the contrary, America operates under a “Do what Thou Wilt” doctrine, which is the doctrine of Satan. Where Jesus teaches us to deny ourselves.

Speaking of the old serpent Satan, Yah’s word tell us that the devil comes to “steal, kill, and destroy”- John 10:10

So of course the killing of unborn babies is a work that he specializes in.

If you study more of the Bible specifically the Old Testament, you will find various scriptures noting how pagan civilizations were known to sacrifice their children to their pagan gods. What we now call abortion is just a modern day child sacrifice to the same false gods who pleasured in them in the days of old.

You can find examples of this in:

Deuteronomy 12:31

Psalms 106:37-38

*****TRANSPARENCY MOMENT*****

When I found out that I was pregnant with my 4th child I considered having an abortion. Meaning Satan made the suggestion and I not only considered it but even scheduled an appointment to have it done.

I thank Yah for His Holy Spirit because Immediately after scheduling the appointment, He began to minister to me the truth and consequences of my decision had I followed through with it.

He presented two of the scriptures noted above and if that wasn’t enough conviction, The Holy Spirit also brought me to the scripture Psalms 139:13-16

“13 For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb.

14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.

15 My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,

16 your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.”

As you can read from this passage, Yah is very intentional about the planning of your lives before we are ever born, not just afterwards. Who are we to terminate His masterpiece and glorious work? Who are we to cut short a life that He has ordained and purposed to be in the earth?

Lastly the Holy Spirit brought me to Psalms 127:3-5

3 “Children are a heritage from the Lord,
offspring a reward from him.
4 Like arrows in the hands of a warrior
are children born in one’s youth.
5 Blessed is the man
whose quiver is full of them.
They will not be put to shame
when they contend with their opponents in court.”

This scripture clearly communicates that children are indeed a blessing/reward/gift from Yah. Certainly not something to be discarded or disregarded and most definitely not to be destroyed. Unfortunately we live in a culture and time where having more children is frowned upon or condemned. But in Yah’s word more children are described as more blessing.

I decided to share my experience to empathize with those women who find themselves in the difficult position of an unwanted or unplanned pregnancy. And to testify that without the Holy Spirit and the word of Yah it is very easy to make a decision out of fear that aligns more with Satan than with Yah. By the next morning I canceled my appointment and was completely at peace with my decision to keep my baby alive. Now that she is here and just 8 days old, I can’t imagine missing out on this beautiful blessing.

As the Body of Christ we should be interceding for these women not condemning them. Simply because we know that they will have to answer to Yah for their actions whether the government holds them accountable or not.

As believers in Christ who are saved by grace through faith, let’s stop spending time debating whether abortions should be legal or banned, we already know that they are illegal in the eyes of our God. Let’s instead focus our attention on pleading for the lives of the women and children who are vulnerable prey to Satan’s agenda to kill and destroy Yah’s creation, which has been his endgame from jump street.

Pray that the Holy Spirit will intervene and advocate on their behalf like He did for me.

Pray that women all over the world will not only be convicted to believe that murder is wrong no matter the age of the victim but also that they will trust and believe that their unborn child is Yah’s reward for them and not a burden.

Lastly may the Bride of Christ exercise our authority over Satan and his kingdom to combat and overthrow every plan he has for our children both living and unborn in the name of Jesus.
