Nigerian Muslims kidnap 40 kids and demand $70,000 ransom
On November 3rd, unidentified Muslim militants in Northern Nigeria abducted 40 children in an attack on a farm in Katsina state, reports International Christian Concern.
The Premium Times, a Nigerian newspaper, reported that the kidnappers have demanded the payment of $70,000 as ransom.
The militants have contacted the parents of the children asking for the money.
Join me in prayer. Dear Jesus, Please intervene and orchestrate the situation so that these abducted Nigerian children will be safely and quickly returned to their families. Amen.
In John 14:14, Jesus said, “If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it.”
How an Ohio voter stumped Democrat Senator Tim Ryan
According to RealClearPolitics.com, the U.S. Senate continues to be a toss-up between the Democrats and Republicans as Election Day on Tuesday, November 8th rapidly approaches.
Right now, there are 45 seats that are likely to be retained by the Democrats and 48 seats likely to be retained by the Republicans. Plus, there are 7 seats that are toss-up.
One seat that leans Republican is in Ohio between the Democrat, Tim Ryan, and the Republican, J.D. Vance. Right now, Vance is only leading by 3% which is within the margin of error.
In a recent debate, a woman in the audience asked Ryan this pointed question.
VOTER: “Can you look me in the face and tell me that government expenditures on green energy subsidies through the ‘Inflation Reduction Act’ that increase our national debt are in any way lessening my burden at the gas station and the grocery store?”
RYAN: “I, I could not say that, right now, in the present moment.”

NPR plays audio of an abortion on air
And finally, before you hear the next story, I’d like to issue a parental advisory.
If you have children with you, and you’re listening by radio, you might want to turn the volume off for about two minutes. If you’re listening to the podcast, you might want to listen to it at a later time when your kids are not with you.
So, here’s the story. Brace yourself.
Yesterday morning, National Public Radio did something quite unique. They aired the audio of an actual abortion in Detroit, Michigan, reports LifeSiteNews.com.
The woman had given her consent to have the murder of her baby captured by the radio affiliate.
Narrated by reporter Kate Wells on Michigan’s “Morning Edition,” they featured the story of a mother who aborted her 11-week-old baby at Northland Family Planning in metro Detroit.
Here is the critical excerpt from her NPR story. It starts with an abortion assistant, named Brandi, directing the mother right before the abortion.
BRANDI: “So, I am just going to get you set up on the table and we’re going to do (inaudible) medicine. I’m gonna pull this out under your legs.”
WELLS: “Most patients are partially awake during the procedures. They get IV medication for pain and anxiety. The lights are dimmed, there’s soothing music. It actually feels a lot like a childbirth. The medical gown, your bare legs in stirrups, and a person next to you saying, ‘You can do this.’”
BRANDI: “Just keep breathing. Just keep breathing.”
WELLS: “That’s Brandi. She’s one of the staffers. Her job is to monitor vital signs. But it is also to hold the patient’s hand and talk her through this. Whether it’s a birth or an abortion, it is often women guiding other women.”
BRANDI: “You’re going to hear this machine turn on now. Okay? It makes a loud noise.”
MOTHER: “Okay.”
(The abortionist turns on the suction machine)
After dilation of the cervix, a suction curette, a tube with a serrated tip, is inserted into the uterus. The strong suction, which is 29 times more powerful than your household vacuum cleaner, tears the baby’s body apart and sucks it through the hose into a container. This is the most common method of surgical abortion in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy.
BRANDI: “Blow it out. Blow it out. Breathe deep. Breathe deep. Blow it out. Listen to me. Blow it out. If you hold it wherever you make it harder for you. Keep breathing. Keep breathing.”
WELLS: “’Just keep breathing,’ Brandy tells her over and over. ‘I can’t!’ the patient says at one point when the cramps get painful. ‘Yes, you can,’ Brandy tells her. ‘You’re doing it.’ And then within just a couple of minutes, it’s over.”
MOTHER: (Moaning)
BRANDI: “Take some deep breaths for me.”
MOTHER: (Moaning)
BRANDI: “Catch your breath.”
MOTHER: (breathing deeply)
BRANDI: “You did it!”
MOTHER: “Thank you guys so much!”
BRANDI: “You are welcome.”
Greg Price, a pro-lifer, tweeted, “This clip puts on full display what an abortion actually is: violence and full on dehumanization of the unborn. That’s why it’s important to share. To show reality.”
Price also said, “So, listen to that audio. It’s incredibly tough, but it’s important. Listen to it and then think to yourself about how the only pitch the Democrat Party is making to the voters in the midterm election is more of that.”
Plus, the pro-life group Live Action tweeted, “A recording of a murder. Outlaw abortion now.”
Note the cruel irony of how the NPR reporter oddly compared the brutal murder of the mother’s baby to the joy of child birth.
While NPR should be applauded for airing the audio, notice how they lowered the volume at the most difficult part to hear and the reporter complimented the abortion assistant for aiding in the murder.
This much is clear. Proverbs 6 says God hates seven things including “the hands that shed innocent blood.”
