(CNSNews.com) – Rep. Chris Smith (R.-N.J.), co-chairman of the House Pro-Life Caucus, told CNSNews.com in a video interview at Friday’s 37th annual March for Life that American need to pray for President Barack Obama because he is “obsessed” with promoting abortion.Rep. Smith's quote is kind of a "good news, bad news" situation. Obviously, it's appalling the president is very pro-abortion as are so many in his administration. On the other hand, it's wonderful to hear a United States Representative publicly promote prayer and fasting as a means of fighting this cultural war. Major kudos to him and any others in congress who may think along those lines.
When CNSNews.com asked Smith what pro-life Americans could do to fight for the rights of the unborn, he said: “I think we need to pray. We need to fast. We need to pray for Obama. He is so obsessed with promoting abortion. All of his picks for secretary, under-secretary, assistant-secretary--all the gate-keepers in government--are now litmus-tested pro-abortionists, many of whom come right out of the abortion-rights movement. And these movement abortionists are trying to use everything when we know it, or sometimes when we don’t know it, behind the scenes, to promote this agenda. So this is an aggressive pro-abortion administration.”
Indeed, it's going to take much prayer and fasting to win the battle with those who are anti-life. If you're a praying person and you're anti-abortion, (I know, that's a non sequitur) consider kicking it up a notch or 2 by fasting. It's a powerful weapon to keep handy in your spiritual arsenal and if we ever needed reinforcements for the spiritual warfare swirling around us, it is now.
