MARCH FORTH
We are issuing an alert as America faces a pivotal point in its history. Given the impeachment hearings and the upcoming Supreme Court hearing of the Louisiana case, we sense it is time to sound the alarm. The family research council explains the SCOTUS hearing:
"The high court will hear oral arguments over a Louisiana statute requiring physicians performing abortions in the state to have admitting privileges at nearby hospitals. The Supreme Court struck down a similar statute enacted in Texas in 2016." The previous attempt was struck down on the ground that it imposed an "Undue burden" on women seeking abortions. This hearing will be the first since the 2016 ruling. The National Catholic Register notes, "The disturbing reality is that women at abortion facilities were afforded a lower standard of care than anyone else, because the admitting-privilege requirement already applies to every other kind of surgery performed in the state’s ambulatory medical clinics." The Justice Foundation notes, "2,600 women have been hurt by abortion including 94 from Louisiana."
FYI: Key timing issue for this SCOTUS hearing:
This is an "All hands on deck" alert to be praying into the SCOTUS hearing March 4th. Our nation is at a pivot point. Below are key declarations and PDF to pass on to friends to assist in praying for SCOTUS and for the coming revival and restoration of America.

FYI: Key timing issue for this SCOTUS hearing:
- The Justice Foundation has filed 3 briefs in the case and is calling for 40 days of prayer (Jan 25-March 4) leading up to the March 4th hearing (march forth for life)
- March 3, 1970 is when Roe v Wade case was filed in TX = 50 years – jubilee year! case decided Jan. 1973 so this year is the 47th anniversary
- There are over 200 Congressmen who filed the brief along with other groups; all want to be heard so pray for order and best arguments to be presented

Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” To the contrary, “if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. Rom 12:17-21

Will You prolong Your anger to all generations?
Will You not revive us again,
That Your people may rejoice in You?
Show us Your mercy, Lord,
And grant us Your salvation.

For He will speak peace
To His people and to His saints;
But let them not turn back to folly.
