Day of Prayer and Fasting for Trafficking
Human Trafficking has been a new found passion of my bride Katie…and honestly still learning what this means… but it is pretty neat to see God well up in her an urgency to be about this cause that really comes from the center of the God’s heart to deal with…
(Know there are plenty of good agencies attacking this issue) yet Today has been earmarked by many Christian agencies as a day of prayer and fasting of this issue…
Did you know?…
~ it is estimated that there are approximately 27 million slaves in the world today = MORE THAN ANY OTHER TIME IN HISTORY…
~ it is a $32 billion per year industry and is the fastest growing crime in the world today…
~ Ecuador is consider one of the source, transit, and destination countries for it…
~ it can take the form of drug trafficking, forced begging, domestic servitude, sexual exploitation, and prostitution…
Isaiah 58:6 “is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen: to loose the chaiins of injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke?”
Amos 5:24 “But let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream!”
Proverbs 31:8-9 “Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy.”
John 8:36 “So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.”
Please consider praying Today (or any day) about this issue that hurts the heart of our King…
