Before you read any more... THIS POST HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MY WOMB. : )
I have lots of friends that are married. I have several friends that already have precious little babes. But I also have several friends that have been having that nasty battle to get pregnant. When this issue came up in my first friends life I thought "man, that sucks." And then the story repeated itself in others lives. It is heartbreaking for them and in turn for me. I am a blessed girl with lots of really amazing friends. And on top of that, they (if they are married) have amazing husbands. (or will have : ) ). Which means, they will make amazing parents together. The second thought was "am I really old enough to be having this conversation?" I quickly realized it has nothing to do with how old I (we) was and everything to do with the one that comes to steal, kill, and destroy. Sometimes quite literally. I have already witnessed one sweet friend experience triumph and I am waiting in expectation for it to continue one by one. I am so giddy to see God do His thing I can barely stand it!
The following comes from a Keneth Copeland Prayer for believing for children.
"You have a right to believe God for anything He has promised in His Word. The Word says in Psalms 127:3, “Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord and the fruit of the womb is his reward.” Psalms 84:11 says, “…no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.” Also, Psalms 113:9 says, “He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children….” Exodus 23:26 in The Amplified Bible states, “None shall lose her young by miscarriage or be barren in your land….”
Children are the right of a marriage covenant with God (Deuteronomy 28:11).
Based on the Word of God, we set ourselves in agreement with you that
you have the desire of your heart, a child of your own. The Lord
perfects that which concerns you (Psalms 138:8).
God’s Word is always His will. We have included a prayer and
scriptures that we believe will minister to you as you stand on them. As
you make these scriptures part of your prayer life, you may be sure
that you are praying according to the will of God. “And this is the
confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to
his will, he heareth us: And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we
ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him” (I John 5:14-15)."
So, dear friends, I stand in faith and believe for multiple children to come out of your wombs and that your husbands will be as fertile as some of my high school boys seam to be!
I love you all.
