Hi Friends,

The Lord has given me a serious topic to write on today.  It is something most people try to avoid discussing. It is about abortion.  

I do not have pictures, I am not speaking of anything graphic, I am not trying to sensationalize this. If you have had an abortion, I want you to know that Jesus died for your sin too. This is a revelation that God has shown me and I simply want to share this with you so that you can pray and be aware of the time in which we live.

I have a prayer that you can pray at the end, if you want to feel secure in your standing with the Lord, or if you need healing in this area of your life. So please don’t dismiss this post. I have not experienced this personally, but I do appreciate the pain and emotional suffering that comes from making a decision that can not be undone. Jesus said to the woman caught in adultery, after her accusers left in shame: “Woman, where are your accusers? Has no one condemned you?” “No one, sir,” she said. “Then neither do I condemn you,” Jesus declared. “Now go and sin no more.” John 8:10-11

Let me share with you how the Lord revealed this to me.  Just a few days ago, I was praying when I saw the name “MARTHA BRADY.”  Then following this I saw a petri dish with a black ant floating in a clear liquid.  The ant was dead.

Martha Brady - Who is She?

I had no idea who Martha Brady was, so I decided to look her up on the internet.  I found that there were many articles written about her.  She is the Director of Reproductive Health at PATH, also known as the “Program for Appropriate Technology in Health.”  This is one of the largest global health organizations. It is funded by the USAID and UK.  

PATH - current biography of Martha Brady, MS

Program Leader, Reproductive Health

Martha Brady, MS, leads PATH’s Reproductive Health Program, which focuses on improving sexual and reproductive health by enhancing commitment and capacity to implement appropriate and effective interventions at scale.

Ms. Brady has more than 25 years of experience as a program leader, researcher, technical advisor, and evaluator of health and development programs. Throughout her career, she has focused on sexual and reproductive health and rights, and on issues of poverty, gender, and youth. She has worked along many aspects of the value chain from product development, access and introduction, and health system integration across a range of reproductive health products and delivery platforms. She brings a social science research perspective and gendered analysis to this work.

Before joining PATH in 2016, Ms. Brady worked with the Population Council, most recently as senior associate, focused on improving the health and well-being of girls and young women. Other roles with the Population Council include directing the Expanding Contraceptive Choice Program, aimed at facilitating access and uptake of contraceptive products in public- and private-sector markets, and leading access-related work on multipurpose prevention technologies, microbicides, and antiretroviral-based prevention for women. She began her work on early clinical trials of the first contraceptive implant.

Ms. Brady has co-directed a global implementation science program aimed at building the evidence base on cross-sector programming for adolescent girls, and she led a recent evidence review for and co authored Investing When it Counts: Reviewing the Evidence and Charting a Course of Research and Action for Young Adolescents. Ms. Brady is also a valued member of several inter-agency working groups, consortia, and coalitions working in the global health arena.

Ms. Brady holds an MS in nutrition and public health from Columbia University.

Another article:    “Martha Brady, Director, Reproductive Health PATH,” Global Washington, August 18, 2017.

Martha Brady, the Director of Reproductive Health at PATH, a Seattle-based international health nonprofit, recently returned from the Family Planning Summit 2017 in London.

The summit was co-hosted by the UK Department for International Development, the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation in collaboration with Family Planning 2020 (FP2020) and in close partnership with United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and Global Affairs Canada.

There were a number of new family planning commitments made at the meeting, including the announcement by Melinda Gates that the foundation would commit an additional $375 million over four years, a 60% increase in its family planning funding. PATH also revitalized its commitments from the previous summit, dedicating $10 million dollars over three years to “expand the contraceptive method mix in up to 12 countries by 2020.” New commitments were also made by Global Washington members Americares and International Rescue Committee.

Brady and her team took the lead in organizing a panel at the summit on how innovations in contraceptive products and delivery can advance the right of all women and adolescent girls to a range of options. Steve Davis, PATH’s President and CEO spoke alongside family planning leaders from Ethiopia, Kenya, Nigeria, and Uganda.

Following is a transcript of the conversation with Martha Brady, edited for length and clarity.

[Brady kicked off the conversation by highlighting essentials for women’s empowerment]:

There are three things research tells us are absolutely needed to empower women:

One is education.

Another is access to and control over economic resources. This might mean different things to different places. It might mean land rights, or gold jewelry, or whatever it is that’s an economic resource in the local context. Control over those resources is also crucial.

The third is a woman’s ability to regulate her own fertility—when, if, and whether to have children, as well as how many, with whom, etc.

Without those three pillars, you can’t really have empowered women in society. The pillars all have to be present to varying degrees. Above all, though, education of girls and women is one of the strongest predictors of health—women’s health, children’s health, and family health.

It’s all interrelated. No countries develop economically without having addressed education in some profound way.

What is PATH?

Path: Global Health Organization  according to Wikipedia, PATH is an international, nonprofit global health organization based in Seattle, with 1,600 employees in more than 70+ offices around the world.  Its president and CEO is Nikolaj Gilbert, who is also the Managing Director and CEO of Foundations for Appropriate Technologies in Health (FATH), PATH's Swiss subsidiary. PATH focuses on five platforms—vaccines, drugs, diagnostics, devices, and system and service innovations—to develop innovations and implement solutions that save lives and improve health, especially among women and girls.

PATH is one of the largest nonprofit organizations in global health today.[3]

PATH's headquarters are in the South Lake Union, Seattle neighborhood, close to several other global health organizations including the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.[4]

OneWorld Health was a 501(c)(3) nonprofit drug development organization founded in San Francisco in 2000 by Victoria Hale.[5] In December 2011, OneWorld Health became a drug development program of PATH.[6] What was the Institute for OneWorld Health has become PATH's Drug Development program.

To read the above excerpts from articles and new releases one would think that what they are doing is extraordinarily noble, and a worthwhile endeavor to help the poor in underdeveloped countries to have access to birth control, and women’s reproductive health and vaccines to lessen the impact of disease on the population.  But what we see is something different when we view this from God’s perspective.

God’s Perspective as I Understand it to Be

What was God’s mandate to Adam and Eve?  “God blessed them and said to them, ‘Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it; rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and every creature that crawls upon the earth.’”  Genesis 1:28

God expects our population to grow.  And he expects us to be good stewards and rulers over all living things.  However, when we willfully choose to not accept the Lord’s mandate to be fruitful and multiply, then we are in defiance.   The actions taken to prevent birth by contraceptives, and abortion are an affront to God and his authority.  It is in effect laying claim to our bodies saying, “ Our bodies belong to us, and we will do with them as we see fit!”

The World View

PATH and the Population Council, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and other similar organizations base their help and programs on the premise that the earth and its resources are finite. They fear that there will not be enough food and the essentials of life, with an ever increasing population.  Hence, their desire to control population growth is based on fear, and probability. As Christians, we understand that there is a missing variable in their equation, leading to the wrong conclusion. That missing variable is the Lord. “Jesus looked at them and said, ‘With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.’” Matthew 19:26

If the Lord said we were to fill the earth, then we should trust him, being convinced that God will provide the resources and the ingenuity that we need to feed and care for his creation.

Population control opposes the Lord’s plan.  Yet he gives us freewill to do as we choose.

The leaders of health organizations like these, make it their goal to reduce the current population to what is their ideal. These people are globalists, who see the world as a whole, and want to control every aspect of life on this planet.  They may think of themselves as philanthropists, lovers of people, but because they do not know God, their love is not based on his love, but on selfish motives and self love. They are deceived and convinced that their plan for life on this earth is best for everyone.  They actually believe that through their own efforts they can make a utopia of this earth.  So population control is foundational and imperative from this view point.

The promotion of population control has been well accepted in western culture. Most people have bought into it. Today, anyone who takes a different stance on the topic is considered a fool. Many Christians are okay with birth control but are against abortion. They have rationalized that birth control or contraception doesn’t kill anyone, so it should be okay. But thinking like this is similar to how the Israelites chose to serve God during the time of the Judges. “In those days Israel had no king; everyone did what was right in their own eyes.” Judges 17:6

Also: “There is a way that seems right to a man, but the end of it is death.” Proverbs 14:12

There are still parts of the world that are against birth control because it runs counter to their beliefs. Yet, these globalists do not give up. If one generation is against birth control, they know that with effort and education (propaganda), they will win over the next generation.

It is an easy sell, when appealing to the “self,” the independent, self-proclaiming side of people. The plan is to entice a woman to see things from a selfish mindset: Get an education, choose a career, make money for yourself, and be free to make your own choices, be independent of parents and men, and have the same freedom that a man has.

Didn’t the devil use the same apple to entice Eve? “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.’” Genesis 3: 1, 5

These globalists want to “free women from motherhood, and marriage.”  They want women to find their fulfillment not in childbearing and raising a family, but in working and in having a career.  More women in the workplace means that the world can be more economically productive.  So, to reach their population and economic goals, they appeal to a woman’s ego, and her desire for independence.

I know of a woman who told her two daughters that if they wanted children, that they should just have them. She counseled them to not get married, because “it doesn’t work out anyway. Marriage only leads to fighting and divorce.”

This message about marriage and the family has been catching on.  Young girls are not encouraged to keep themselves pure before marriage.  On the contrary, through social media, music, and television, teens hear the message that to be popular, they need to be sexy and sexually active at an early age.  Even preteens are sexually active.  

Many educators in our nation promote this agenda by passing out contraceptives freely to high school students.  They teach sex in health class. They teach that it is perfectly normal to be homosexual, or something else altogether.  Basically, these public (government) schools give the children the green light to do whatever they choose.  “Whatever is best in their own eyes.”

So with contraceptives and accessible abortion, there is no longer a deterrent to engage in premarital sex and promiscuity.  

Sin Begets Sin

Once the restraints of Biblical morality are removed, anything goes. Sin is rebellion. And one sin will naturally open the door for more sin. Promiscuity, premarital sex and adultery paves the way for perversity, as sin begets sin. Homosexuality and lesbianism is a natural outflow of rebellion.

The advocates for population control cheer for those who indulge in homosexual and lesbian relationships, because there is no chance of procreation.  I am sure that you can appreciate the Lord’s concerned with the whole topic of birth control and abortion, because it leads to many forms of evil.

“Flee from sexual immorality.  All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but whoever sins sexually, sins against his own body.”  1 Corinthians 6:18

Now I need to share the vision that the Lord gave me following the name “Martha Brady.”

The Dead Ant

In the vision, the ant floated in a clear liquid.  But the ant was dead.  Could it have died by drinking the liquid?  Could it have died by drowning?  Could it have been dead from some other cause and then placed in the liquid?  What did the ant represent?

Since I was given this vision immediately after seeing the name “MARTHA BRADY,” I believed it had to do with her. Prior to working for PATH, she worked for the “Population Council,” an organization which was created to study and implement controls to prevent the world population from growing.  

So I asked the Lord, “Who or what does the ant represented?” The Lord responded by giving me another vision— I saw a single light brown egg. 

An egg is an ovum. It represents life in its early stage.  A fertilized egg will mature into a baby chick and then hatch.  So this confirmed to me that the ant represented a human embryo, or fetus.  Just as the ant was surrounded by water, an embryo or fetus is contained in an amniotic sac which is filled with water in the form of amniotic fluid.  Because the ant was dead, something terrible had to have happened.  In a similar way, when an embryo or fetus undergoes an abortion, it dies.

What is the difference between an ant and an embryo or fetus?

When we see an ant on our picnic table the first reaction is to kill it, because it does not belong near our food.  When an ant is in our house the reaction is even stronger - kill the ant and its colony because it does not belong in our house.  The ant is perceived to be harmful and has no real value.  

How do we see pregnancy?

When a woman fears that following intercourse, she may become pregnant, her response might be shock, fear or dread knowing that she may have a serious “problem”. She thinks to herself, “How might this adversely affect my career, my social life, or my family?” She may choose to take an “emergency” contraception pill, which contains hormones and/or medications that block pregnancy. They cause a delay in the release of an egg, so that fertilization may not take place. However if an egg becomes fertilized and implants into the lining of the uterus, then this emergency contraceptive does not work. 

So what happens when a life begins to develop in the womb? If the woman does not wish to be pregnant, then abortion seems, (in her eyes), to be the logical solution. “There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end of it is death.” Proverbs 14:12

Why is it so easy for some to have an abortion, and then another one, and possibly another one?  The answer is found in how you look at life.

It is easy to kill or get rid of something you refer to as “it”.  if what you recognize it as an “it” and not a child, you can dismiss it as having no value.  If it is still an embryo, or fetus, you might believe that it is so small and so insignificant, that it doesn’t really matter.  If you do not recognize the child in the womb, as the person he or she will someday become, then the child is nothing more than an ant.  “It” has no value. 

But we are fearfully and wonderfully made—made in the image of God.  “The Lord God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living thing.” Genesis 2:7

“For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.” Psalm 139:13-16

Think of it—God has ordained our days before even one of them existed!

“From the mouths of children and infants you have ordained praise on account of your adversaries, to silence the enemy and avenger.” Psalm 8:2

Lord, bless these children and infants that never saw the light of day, but were killed in the secret place. I know that these little ones are singing your praises in heaven right now. This is for your glory that your adversaries, enemies and avengers will be silenced. The Lord inhabits the praises of his people. “But you are holy, O Lord you inhabit the praises of Israel.” Psalm 22:3

We must choose to forgive as the Lord forgave those who nailed him to the cross: “Father forgive them, for they know not what they do.” Luke 23:24

We Pray

Jesus, we forgive these people, including Martha Brady, who are working against you and your creation. We ask you to forgive them for they are misled and deceived into thinking that they can live in a way independent of you. Help them to see the error of their ways and help them to come to repentance. We want everyone to come to you and to be saved. We know that no matter what someone has said or done, that if they truly repent that you will forgive them. We ask that you draw them to yourself. Help them to find their way out of darkness and into the light.

Lord we ask that you help women everywhere who have had abortions, and have suffered greatly as a result. Please forgive them and let them know that they can be restored to a right standing with you, simply by asking for your forgiveness, coming from a heart that is sincere and grieved over what they have done. Please help them to forgive themselves, and anyone who “convinced them that abortion was the right thing to do.” When we forgive others their sins, you will also forgive us. Lord we ask you to heal their hearts, their spirits and their bodies. Thank you Jesus, there is no one so loving and faithful as you.

“For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” Romans 3:23

“Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, so that you may be healed.” James 5:16

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only son, that whosoever believes in him, will not perish but have everlasting life.” John 3:16

“If you confess with your mouth “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” Romans 10:9

A Prayer for Salvation and Healing

Dear Jesus,

I know that you are God, a holy trinity, God as one, while three in one: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. I know that you died on the cross for my sins. Please forgive me of all my sins, even the most dreadful of sins. Please accept my heartfelt regrets over what I have done, and over what I have said. I acknowledge that you are to be my Lord, my Savior, my healer and my defender, from this day forward. Please send your Holy Spirit to live within me. I know he will comfort me, and lead me into all truth. Help me to live my life one day at a time in your honor and in your very presence. Help me to comfort others with the comfort that I have received from you. Please write my name in the Book of Life, that I will be with you now, and when I die—to be with you in heaven for all eternity. Please heal my broken heart, and reconcile me to yourself and to the Father. Heal my emotional wounds and give me a new life as it says in your Word: “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new!” 2 Corinthians 5:17

Please share this with someone who needs the love of God, a friend or a prayer partner. We need to see people healed and set free of the bondages that result from sin and unforgiveness. Thank you for reading and please keep our nation and the world in prayer—Jesus is coming! Maranatha! Come Lord Jesus!
