The Bound4LIFE Patriot Campaign

Dear Patriots,
While reading a quote in a biography on William Wilberforce, the great parliamentary figure of the 1800’s who was almost single-handedly responsible for the ending of the slave trade in England, I was suddenly and forcefully apprehended by the presence of God. In that moment, I received an undeniable and irrevocable commission from the Lord, “Raise up a prayer movement to end abortion in America!”
Bound4LIFE is the supernatural child born from that commission, and God has taken up the mobilization of the prayer movement. Little did we know that when 50 young people would put “LIFE” tape on their mouths, stand like a wall in front of the Supreme Court and pray silently before God for mercy and the ending of abortion that ABC New Nightline would launch the vision. Almost every major news magazine and paper in the nation has shown photographs of the LIFE tape image. Young people are wearing it and praying in schools. Prayer walls have been formed in front of abortion clinics, and now tens of thousands are praying the Bound4LIFE prayer in stadiums and arenas with “theCall.” In just over three years time, there are now Bound4LIFE chapters in 42 states, and it is spreading internationally.
We have a dream. Martin Luther King, Jr. had a dream and segregation ended. We have a dream that abortion can end in America, and mothers can be spared from pain and shame. We have a dream of 1 million adoptions and a renewed foster care system. Would you join this dream–a massive prayer movement so that justice can once again role down like waters and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream?
Matt Lockett is a spiritual son to me. There is no one that carries my heart and vision for Bound4LIFE as he does. Matt and his wife Kim were sovereignly called in dreams to leave behind a successful career in the marketplace to pour out there lives for the cause of the unborn. For three years they have faithfully served myself and the JHOP community and for the last year have led the Bound4LIFE prayer movement. I am committed deeply to them and this prayer initiative.
I believe that Bound4LIFE is one of
the most critical prayer movements in
this pressing moment of American History.
It is with this passion and pressing mandate that I would ask you to prayerfully consider being a part of Bound4LIFE’s Patriot Campaign. Are you deeply committed to the ending of abortion and believe in the mass mobilization of prayer? We are looking for 500 people to support this movement by giving $50.00 a month. As the growth and influence of Bound4LIFE is increasing so is the need for staff and material resources. I myself am committed to supporting Bound4LIFE because, as I said before, it really is part of my spiritual offspring.
For the sake of the nation and for the comfort of God’s heart over this great injustice please pray for Matt, Kim and the Bound4LIFE ministry, and please support them in this critical year of 2008. May the Lord fill you with a deep sense of His pleasure.
