Silent Siege at the Court
Lou Engle, leader of TheCall, started a prayer movement at the Supreme Court that is a silent siege. Today, it is called Bound4Life and is led by Matt Lockett. He led young people to start praying at the Court with red “Life tape” on their mouths praying for the ending of abortion in America and a shifting of the courts. All silent. They have prayed there every day since October 2004—through rain, snow, and heat. They will not stop until God delivers America from the sin of abortion.
“Lay siege against it, build a siege wall against it, and heap up a mound against it; set camps against it also, and place battering rams against it all around.” (Ezekiel 4:2-3; NKJV)
Give Him 15 minutes in prayer:
- Pray, “Jesus, I plead Your blood over my sins and the sins of my nation. God, end abortion, and send revival to America.”
- Decide to lay siege to the spirit of abortion in America, especially as it has gained entrance through the U.S. Supreme Court.
- Declare, “Abortion, remove your filthy self from America’s shores! We will not tolerate this spirit of death that claims our unborn—the treasures of our nation’s future!”
- Pray for Bound4Life and all of the Christians who pray daily at the Supreme Court. Pray as if you are standing there alongside them. Even check the weather report for Washington, D.C., for the day.
A prayer you can pray:
In the Spirit, I join those standing on the steps of the U.S. Supreme Court today and every day to pray for the ending of abortion in America. I join them in their daily silent prayer. “Jesus, I plead Your blood over my sins and the sins of my nation. God, end abortion, and send revival to America.” Abortion, remove your filthy self from America’s shores! We will not tolerate this spirit of death that claims our unborn—the treasures of our nation’s future! Jesus, provide the Bound4Life intercessors the grace to stand against the enemy’s tactics through our Court. They are standing there today in the rain and humidity of a D.C. summer day. They aren’t distracted as a tourist would be. They are standing firm and engaged in a spiritual battle until a death culture is routed from our land. Turn the Court, Lord! Save us! Amen.
Today’s decree:
Christ’s followers are laying siege against abortion in America!
