Welcome Church Family
Hi Church Family, I want to personally welcome you to The Anna Banana Show website. The Anna Banana Show is on a mission to mobilize the Church to end the Holocaust in the womb (Abortion). This is a calling that the Lord Jesus Christ has placed on my life. As founder of this spiritual grassroots coalition, it is my life’s mission to champion life. I am a proponent of a culture that values the sanctity of life from conception, and an opponent of a culture that promotes death and destruction.
The Lord of all creation, Jesus Christ has called me to start this spiritual grassroots coalition to mobilize His Church to Abolish Abortion in the United States. Since 1973, when the U.S. Supreme Court issued its landmark ruling in Roe v. Wade, more than 63 million abortions have occurred in the U.S. Let that sink in for a while Church!
That is over 63,000,000 innocent and defenseless human babies created in the image of God whose rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness have been permanently erased. As God’s Church, we have been called to be salt of the earth and light to the world (Matthew 5:13-16).
In Proverbs 31:8-9, our Savior Jesus Christ instructs us to speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves and defend their rights. We have also been instructed in Proverbs 24:11-12 to rescue those who are being taken away to death; hold back those who are stumbling to the slaughter. Only God has the sovereign ability to give life and only God has the sovereign authority to take it away. As God’s Church, it is our mandate to carry out and honor God’s commands.
This spiritual mandate begins in the Lone Star State of Texas as the headquarters for this spiritual grassroots coalition. If you consider yourself a member of God’s Church, I urge you to sign the Petition to your right with unwavering conviction. This Petition is called “The Right To Life Emancipation Proclamation.” Our goal is to educate, engage, motivate, challenge, and mobilize the Church of God to show their support in ending the holocaust in the womb (Abortion) from our nation; one State at a time, beginning with the Lone Star State of Texas.
Once you sign this Petition, you will now be called a Lone Star Warrior. No longer will you just be a resident of the great State of Texas, you will now be referred to as a Lone Star Warrior. Lone Star Warriors are voting age advocates for the right to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness, and believe that those rights also belong to human babies in the womb.
The Bible tells us that every person’s life is a gift from God from conception, and should be celebrated and not discarded or destroyed. I empathize with women who have been raped and may be facing life threatening issues due to pregnancy. Although these situations are exceptions rather than the norm, no human being has the right under any circumstances to end the life of another human being.
It is not a woman’s right to bodily autonomy when the body being terminated is not hers. She is making the choice to terminate the life of another human being, not hers. She is making a choice for another person in her womb; not her body. God Almighty who creates human beings in His own image should decide who lives and who dies. If you ask your government to give you the right to destroy the life of another human being, you are also giving your government the right to destroy you.
This is how spiritual lawfare works. The reality you normalize for others will become your reality. Let’s put an end to a culture of death that is Abortion!
The Right to Life Emancipation Proclamation
The Bible tells us that we shall all stand before God on Judgement day to give an account of what we did with the life that He gave us. What a wonderful account we shall have knowing that we showed unwavering support to defending life and abolishing abortion.
Fill out this form if you are a Christian, able to vote, a legal resident of Texas, and committed to putting an end to the holocaust in the womb. You will be required to submit a non-refundable small administrative fee of one dollar with your completed form. This small administrative fee serves to validate your identity and process your submission. contribution to our spiritual grassroots coalition effort in abolishing abortion and defending life from conception.

Ephesians 6:12
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”
The Bible tells us that our battle is not against man but against spiritual forces. In order for us to win our battles, we have to first acknowledge that it is first spiritual. It is only when we submit our will to God that we can experience total victory.
In the book of Esther, Queen Esther understood that defeating Haman first required her to seek God’s intervention. The only way she did that was by submitting her will to God and seeking God for guidance. She did this through prayer and fasting. God is spirit and the only omnipotent spirit. Only a Spirit being can assist us in fighting the spiritual realm influencing our government. Mordecai was a government official who ministered to Queen Esther to trust in God.
Prayer and Fasting will be our first weapon against the corrupt forces in our government.

My name is Anna Bender, but feel free to call me Anna Banana. I am a Christian, a Wife, and a Mom to four beautiful children. I live in the Lone Star State of Texas. I love Texas and its Lone Star Warriors. Texans are Warriors for God, Country, Truth, Life, Family, and Peace. You maybe wondering why the name “Anna Banana,” or why I call myself “Anna Banana.” Anna Banana is a fun nickname that was given to me by my awesome college friends. When they started chanting “Anna, Anna Banana, Anna, Anna Banana…,” I would start doing a goofy dance and it was lots of fun. Another fun hobby of mine is that I enjoy baking banana bread which I call Banana Mana. I bake it every weekend and share with family and friends. Maybe some day with all of you. I am passionate about God, Country, and MAGA.

Romans 13:1-4
“Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, for he is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God’s wrath on the wrongdoer”
So, we are accountable to the government. But who is the government accountable to?
In Romans 13:1-7, Paul, writing under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, makes this very clear: Government is accountable to God. Why? Because governmental authorities, be they an emperor, king, or duly elected representatives in a constitutional republic, are God’s servants.
Paul is indeed arguing that “every person” should be subject (or submit) to the government in general, but to be clear, this is not an unlimited submission — no matter what anyone told you wrongly during COVID.
In the eyes of God, the government is His servant. It is both appointed by Him and accountable to Him. It’s critical for Christians to remember this for many reasons, perhaps primarily because governments so often forget it (or reject it) — and when they do, a descent into “statism” is just over the horizon.
What is statism?
“Statism is when the state tries to play God. Or tries to be God. Or goes all the way and declares that it is God. Statism is what happens when the collective hubris of modern man joins forces to resurrect the tower of Babel, except this time instead of a tower to heaven, it’s bureaucrats building a monument to two years’ worth of inerrant and inspired CDC guidelines. It’s like when Fauci said, “I am the science.” Except this is when the government just says, “I am.” It’s when the state demands your worship, your service, your all.”
This is why we must know that the Bible teaches that all governments are ultimately responsible to God. They are His servants, not His replacement.
“Government was established by God. Our national birth certificate, the Declaration of Independence, affirms that all authority comes from God when it states that all men are ‘endowed by their Creator’ with rights—in fact unalienable rights, rights that cannot be taken away, because they were given by God!”
Because God establishes government, and has given unto mankind certain unalienable rights, a government that rules rightly under God will respect those rights and not infringe upon them.
What happens when a nation forgets these truths? When a government forgets that it is accountable to God and slides into statism? What would that look like in the United States? First, we become Canada. Next, we become China. Then, our freedoms are gone.
Because when the government forgets that it is accountable to God, it tries to play God. Disaster and death — such as we witnessed in Germany under Hitler, in the Soviet Union under Stalin, and in Communist China under Mao — soon follow. Man-made horrors beyond comprehension come to life under governments that view themselves as God.
Therefore, just as it is important that Christians understand the purpose of government (to restrain evil and commend good), it is equally important that they understand that a biblical worldview of government begins by knowing that government is accountable to God; it is, in fact, God’s servant.
Three young Hebrew three government officials said these famous words, “Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego replied to him, “King Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you in this matter. If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to deliver us from it, and he will deliver us from Your Majesty’s hand. But even if he does not, we want you to know, Your Majesty, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up.” Daniel 3:16-30
In conclusion, one practical point of application for holding government accountable to God is that Christians must reject a secular, Marxist, or materialist view of government. The atheist says, “There is no God,” and then proceeds to make the government his god. Moving at what appears to be the speed of light, our secularizing society in America is also desperately trying to uproot hundreds of years of our Christian history and moral foundation of law and government in America. Wokeness isn’t just bad policy, it’s a counterfeit religion. It will replace God and hold the government accountable to DEI quotas and pronouns if it gets the chance.
We must not let them succeed in this project — whether it’s the atheists, the secularists, the Marxists, or the Woke. We must stand strong and demand that we acknowledge that the United States is, indeed, “one nation under God.”
If we are to have a future here in America worth handing down to our children we must renew that consensus, starting now. Then we must fight to remain in that humble, but hopeful, position until Christ returns. We must hold our elected officials accountable and remind them that they report to God and not to themselves.

The God of the Bible inspires me to be the best version of myself. God is the giver of life, the author of love, and the only source of Truth. Throughout my life, God has shown Himself to be faithful. During my college days, God miraculously brought strangers in my life to help me when I had nothing. These God-fearing patriots of these United States of America rallied around me like family. They practically adopted me, not legally, but in every other possible way. They valued me as a human being and valued my life and existence. They loved me, fed me, clothe me, sheltered me, and paid my tuition in college. They answered God’s calling on their lives and sacrificed for me. Now, I am duty bound as a recipient of God’s undeserved grace, unmatched mercy, and abundant providence to give back to God and the nation that has given me all that I have. God has called my name and my response is “Yes Lord, send me.”

Ephesians 5:11-14
“Take no part in and have no fellowship with the fruitless deeds and enterprises of darkness, but instead expose and reprove and convict them. It is shameful even to talk about what those people do in secret. But the light makes all things easy to see, and everything that is made easy to see can become light. This is why it is said: “Wake up, sleeper! Rise from death, and Christ will shine on you.”
Haman, a man second to the king, was annoyed with Mordecai, a Jew who would not bow down to him. He decided to present a plan to the king which falsely accused the Jews of undermining his authority. This plan called for the King to authorize a day for all the subjects in his empire to slaughter the Jews living amongst them.
Haman was successful in his deception, for the king authorized this plan and made it known to all his subjects. He sent announcements to every province in every language, so that all would participate, and the annihilation of the Jews would be complete.
However, Mordecai and Esther knew they had to expose Haman’s evil plot if they were to save the Jews. Esther went before the king, without his direct invitation, which could have led to her death, for anyone who approached the throne without invitation was in jeopardy of losing his life. But God gave her favor with the king and the evil plot was exposed and thwarted. The Jews were saved by the grace of God and by her willingness to place herself in God’s hands.
Mordecai’s loyalty was brought into the light and he was given Haman’s position as second to the king. Justice was served: Haman was hung on the gallows that he had built for Mordecai. Esther was content knowing that God had used her to save her people.

I always tell people that God does not use perfect vessels because there are none. God uses willing vessels. I encourage my fellow Texans to join me on this mission and agree to a petition to end abortion. The roadmap to my mission or calling is exemplified in the book of Esther in the Bible. The story of Queen Esther and Mordecai in the Bible teaches us of God’s divine providence when the odds are stacked up against us. Mordecai petitioned Queen Esther to step out in faith and hold corrupt Haman accountable before King Xerxes. Queen Esther chose faith over fear, prayed, and fasted to expose Haman’s corruption intent against God’s chosen people. God granted Queen Esther favor with King Xerxes. Haman’s corruption was exposed and his wicked plans against God’s chosen was not successful. It was the law of the land that no one could come before King Xerxes without an invitation from the King himself. A concerned Queen Esther placed her faith in the God of the Bible and petitioned the courts of Heaven through prayer and fasting. With the help of Mordecai and other Jews throughout the provinces of Persia, Queen Esther was victorious in exposing Haman and protecting her people from destruction. I am following in Queen Esther’s footsteps to mobilize God’s Church of voting age to agree to a petition to Abolish Abortion.
