Psalm 27
1 The LORD is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear?
        The LORD is the strength of my life;
        Of whom shall I be afraid?
      
Psalm 55
16As for me, I will call upon God,
        And the LORD shall save me.
      

Psalm 103
4Who redeems your life from destruction,
        Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies,
      
Matthew 16
17Jesus answered and said to him, "Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven.

25For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.


Matthew 25
46And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."


Luke 9

56For the Son of Man did not come to destroy men's live but to save them.

John 3
15that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. 16For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. 18"He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

36He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him."


John 5
24 "Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.

39You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me. 40But you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life.

John 6
47Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life. 48I am the bread of life.

51I am the living bread which came down from heaven.  If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.  54Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.

John 10
28And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. 29My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father's hand. 30I and My Father are one."


John 12
25He who loves his life will lose it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.

John 17
2as You have given Him authority over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as You have given Him. 3And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.

Romans 5
7For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. 8But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

21so that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Romans 6
23For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.


Romans 9
23for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,
26to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.


Romans 10
9that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

12For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. 13For whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.

1 Corinthians 1
30But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God--and righteousness and sanctification and redemption--

2 Corinthians 5
21For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.


Ephesians 1
7In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace


Colossians 1
14in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins.


Colossians 2
13And you being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses.


Titus 1
2in hope of eternal life which God, who cannot lie, promised before time began, 3but has in due time manifested His word through preaching, which was committed to me according to the commandment of God our Savior;


Titus 3
5not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, 7whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior 7that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal  life


Hebrews 9
12Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood He entered the Most Holy Place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption. 13For if the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkling the unclean, sanctifies for the purifying of the flesh, 14how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? 15And for this reason He is the Mediator of the new covenant, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.

2 Peter 3
9The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.

1 John 2
25And this is the promise that He has promised us--eternal life.

1 John 5
11And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. 13These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.

20And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us an understanding, that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ.  This is the true God and eternal life.

 

B.  He gives us supernatural, unconditional, uncommon Love

Romans 5
5Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.


2 Timothy 1
7For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.


1 John 2

5But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him.


1 John 3

1Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God!  Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.

 

C.  He gives us a Future and equips us to do it

Jeremiah 29
11For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.


Jeremiah 31
16Thus says the LORD:
        "Refrain your voice from weeping,
        And your eyes from tears;
        For your work shall be rewarded, says the LORD,
        And they shall come back from the land of the enemy.
        17There is hope in your future, says the LORD,

          That your children shall come back to their own border.

 


D.  He Restores us

10And the LORD restored Job's losses when he prayed for his friends. Indeed the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.


Psalm 23
3He restores my soul;
        He leads me in the paths of righteousness
        For His name's sake.


Psalm 40
2He also brought me up out of a horrible pit,
        Out of the miry clay,
        And set my feet upon a rock,
        And established my steps.
        3He has put a new song in my mouth--
        Praise to our God;
        Many will see it and fear,
        And will trust in the LORD.

Psalm 103
5Who satisfies your mouth with good things,
        So that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.

       Psalm 138
3In the day when I cried out, You answered me,
        And made me bold with strength in my soul.


        7Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me;
        You will stretch out Your hand
        Against the wrath of my enemies,
        And Your right hand will save me.
      
Isaiah 59
1 Behold, the LORD's hand is not shortened,
        That it cannot save;
        Nor His ear heavy,
        That it cannot hear.


Joel 2

25 So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, The crawling locust, The consuming locust, And the chewing locust, My great army which I sent among you. 26 You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, And praise the name of the Lord your God, Who has dealt wondrously with you; And My people shall never be put to shame.

16You open Your hand And satisfy the desire of every living thing.

        32It is God who arms me with strength,
        And makes my way perfect.
        33He makes my feet like the feet of deer,
        And sets me on my high places.
        34He teaches my hands to make war,
        So that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
        35You have also given me the shield of Your salvation;

        I will fear no evil;
        For You are with me;
        Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
        5You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
        You anoint my head with oil;

        All the days of my life;
        And I will dwell in the house of the LORD
        Forever.

Psalm 27
1 The LORD is my light and my salvation;
        Whom shall I fear?

        To eat up my flesh,
        My enemies and foes,
        They stumbled and fell.
        3Though an army may encamp against me,
        My heart shall not fear;
        Though war may rise against me,
        In this I will be confident.
        4One thing I have desired of the LORD,
        That will I seek:
        That I may dwell in the house of the LORD
        All the days of my life,
        To behold the beauty of the LORD,
        And to inquire in His temple.
        5For in the time of trouble
        He shall hide me in His pavilion;
        In the secret place of His tabernacle
        He shall hide me;
        He shall set me high upon a rock.

        3Though its waters roar and be troubled,
        Though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah
        4There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God,
        The holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High.
        5God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved;

        9He makes wars cease to the end of the earth;
        He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two;
        He burns the chariot in the fire.
        10Be still, and know that I am God;

        10No evil shall befall you,
        Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;
        11For He shall give His angels charge over you,
        To keep you in all your ways.
        12In their hands they shall bear you up,
        Lest you dash your foot against a stone.


Psalm 94

17 Unless the Lord had been my help, My soul would soon have settled in silence. 18 If I say, "My foot slips," Your mercy, O Lord, will hold me up. 19 In the multitude of my anxieties within me, Your comforts delight my soul. 20 Shall the throne of iniquity, which devises evil by law, Have fellowship with You? 21 They gather together against the life of the righteous, And condemn innocent blood. 22 But the Lord has been my defence, And my God the rock of my refuge.

        From this time forth, and even forevermore.

        And their righteousness is from Me,"
        Says the LORD.

F  He Gives us our Spouse

Genesis 2
18And the LORD God said, "It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him." 22Then the rib which the LORD God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man.
23And Adam said:
       "This is now bone of my bones
        And flesh of my flesh;
        She shall be called Woman,
        Because she was taken out of Man."
24Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.

Genesis 24
7The LORD God of heaven, who took me from my father's house and from the land of my family, and who spoke to me and swore to me, saying, "To your descendants I give this land,' He will send His angel before you, and you shall take a wife for my son from there.


Proverbs 18
22He who finds a wife finds a good thing,
        And obtains favor from the LORD.

G  He gives us Health and Healing

Genesis 20
17So Abraham prayed to God; and God healed Abimelech, his wife, and his female servants. Then they bore children;

1 "Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today, that the LORD your God will set you high above all nations of the earth. 4"Blessed shall be the fruit of your body, the produce of your ground and the increase of your herds, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks.
6"Blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out.

Exodus 15
26and said, "If you diligently heed the voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in His sight, give ear to His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians. For I am the LORD who heals you."

Joshua 5
8So it was, when they had finished circumcising all the people, that they stayed in their places in the camp till they were healed.

Psalm 103
2Bless the LORD, O my soul,
        And forget not all His benefits:
        3Who forgives all your iniquities,
        Who heals all your diseases,

3He heals the brokenhearted
        And binds up their wounds.
      

Isaiah 53
5But He was wounded for our transgressions,
        He was bruised for our iniquities;
        The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
        And by His stripes we are healed.

Matthew 8
17that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying:
        "He Himself took our infirmities
        And bore our sicknesses."


Acts 3
6Then Peter said, "Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk." 7And he took him by the right hand and lifted him up, and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength. 8So he, leaping up, stood and walked and entered the temple with them--walking, leaping, and praising God. 9And all the people saw him walking and praising God. 10Then they knew that it was he who sat begging alms at the Beautiful Gate of the temple; and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.

11 Now as the lame man who was healed held on to Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the porch which is called Solomon's, greatly amazed. 12So when Peter saw it, he responded to the people: "Men of Israel, why do you marvel at this? Or why look so intently at us, as though by our own power or godliness we had made this man walk? 13The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, glorified His Servant Jesus, whom you delivered up and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let Him go. 14But you denied the Holy One and the Just, and asked for a murderer to be granted to you, 15and killed the Prince of life, whom God raised from the dead, of which we are witnesses. 16And His name, through faith in His name, has made this man strong, whom you see and know. Yes, the faith which comes through Him has given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.


Acts 9
33There he found a certain man named Aeneas, who had been bedridden eight years and was paralyzed. 34And Peter said to him, "Aeneas, Jesus the Christ heals you. Arise and make your bed." Then he arose immediately.

Acts 10
38how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.

1 Peter 2
24who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness--by whose stripes you were healed.

2 Corinthians 4
10always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body. 11For we who live are always delivered to death for Jesus' sake, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh.

James 5
15And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. 16Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.


3 John 1
2Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.

2 Chronicles 13
12Now look, God Himself is with us as our head, and His priests with sounding trumpets to sound the alarm against you. O children of Israel, do not fight against the LORD God of your fathers, for you shall not prosper!"
13But Jeroboam caused an ambush to go around behind them; so they were in front of Judah, and the ambush was behind them. 14And when Judah looked around, to their surprise the battle line was at both front and rear; and they cried out to the LORD, and the priests sounded the trumpets. 15Then the men of Judah gave a shout; and as the men of Judah shouted, it happened that God struck Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah. 16And the children of Israel fled before Judah, and God delivered them into their hand. 17Then Abijah and his people struck them with a great slaughter; so five hundred thousand choice men of Israel fell slain. 18Thus the children of Israel were subdued at that time; and the children of Judah prevailed, because they relied on the LORD God of their fathers.
19And Abijah pursued Jeroboam and took cities from him: Bethel with its villages, Jeshanah with its villages, and Ephrain with its villages.

        And make them inherit the throne of glory.

S. GOD’s WORD for OUR CHILDREN


Before the Womb (believing for a child)


1.Then God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply (Gen. 1:28)
2.May the LORD make you increase, both you and your children  (Ps. 115:14)
3.Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today, that the LORD your God will set you high above all nations of the earth. And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, because you obey the voice of the LORD your God:…… Blessed shall be the fruit of your body (Deut. 28:1-2,4)
4.And He will love you and bless you and multiply you; He will also bless the fruit of your womb (Deut. 7:13)
5.A good name is to be chosen rather than great riches (Prov 22:1)
6.God said to Jeremiah, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations” (Jer. 1:5).
7.To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck what is planted (Eccl 3:1-2).
8."So you shall serve the LORD your God, and He will bless your bread and your water. And I will take sickness away from the midst of you. No one shall suffer miscarriage or be barren in your land; I will fulfill the number of your days. (Exodus 23:25-26)
9.Nor is He worshiped with men's hands, as though He needed anything, since He gives to all life, breath, and all things. (Acts 17:25).

In the Womb (believing for perfectly formed, strong, healthy and loving child)
1.All that open the womb are Mine, says the LORD (Ex 34:19)
2.For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother's womb.  I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvellous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well.  My frame was not hidden from You, when I was made in secret, and skilfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.  Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed.   And in Your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them.  How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God!  How great is the sum of them!  If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand; When I awake, I am still with You.  (Ps. 139:13-18)
3.Know that the LORD, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; we are His people and the sheep of His pasture (Ps. 100:3)
4.Thus says the LORD who made you and formed you from the womb, who will help you: "Fear not, O Jacob My servant; and you, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.

(Is. 44:2-4)
5.Thus says the LORD, your Redeemer, and He who formed you from the womb: "I am the LORD, who makes all things, (Is. 44:24)

(Is 59:21)
7."So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.  For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.  If a son asks for bread from any father among you, will he give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent instead of a fish? Or if he asks for an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?  If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!" (Luke 11:9-12)
8.I will lift up my eyes to the hills-- From whence comes my help? My help comes from the LORD, Who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to be moved; He who keeps you will not slumber.  Behold, He who keeps Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD is your keeper; The LORD is your shade at your right hand. The sun shall not strike you by day, Nor the moon by night. The LORD shall preserve you from all evil; He shall preserve your soul. The LORD shall preserve your going out and your coming in from this time forth, and even forevermore. (Ps. 121)
9.As you do not know what is the way of the wind, or how the bones grow in the womb of her who is with child, so you do not know the works of God who makes everything. (Eccl. 11:5).  So don’t be concerned when things are not going the way we wanted or thought they are going.  Bottomline – God will take care of everything
10.Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.' (Is. 41:10)
11.No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is from Me," Says the LORD. (Is. 54:17)
12.Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you (1 Peter 5:6-7).
13.Cast your burden on the LORD, and He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved.  (Ps. 55:22)
14.The LORD is good to all, and His tender mercies are over all His works. (Ps. 145:9)
15.For in Him (Jesus Christ of Nazareth) we live and move and have our being (Acts 17:28)
16.And whoever believes on Him (Jesus Christ of Nazareth) will not be put to shame (Romans 9:33)
17.The blessing of the LORD makes one rich, And He adds no sorrow with it.  (Proverbs 10:22)
18.Did not the same One fashion us in the womb? (Job 31:15)
19.Everyone who is called by My name, Whom I have created for My glory; I have formed him, yes, I have made him."   (Isa 43:7)

Outside the Womb (believing they grow according to God’s Word)


1.But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb and called me through His grace. (Gal 1:15)
2.For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.  (Jer. 29:11)
3.For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband; otherwise your children would be unclean, but now they are holy (1 Cor. 7:14).
4.Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb is a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, so are the children of one's youth. Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them; they shall not be ashamed, but shall speak with their enemies in the gate. (Ps. 127:3-5)
5.The children of Your servants will continue, and their descendants will be established before You. (Ps. 102:28)
6.All your children shall be taught by the LORD, and great shall be the peace of your children. (Is 54:13)
7.Praise the LORD! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD Who delights greatly in His commandments. His descendants will be mighty on earth; the generation of the upright will be blessed. Wealth and riches will be in his house, and his righteousness endures forever. (Ps. 112:1-3).
8.Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible be delivered; for I will contend with him who contends with you, and I will save your children.  I will feed those who oppress you with their own flesh, and they shall be drunk with their own blood as with sweet wine.  All flesh shall know that I, the LORD, am your Savior, and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob (Is. 49:25-26)
9.Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household (Acts 16:31).
10."Lift up your eyes all around, and see: they all gather together, they come to you; your sons shall come from afar, and your daughters shall be nursed at your side. Then you shall see and become radiant, and your heart shall swell with joy; because the abundance of the sea shall be turned to you, the wealth of the Gentiles shall come to you. (Is. 60:4-5).
11.Thus says the LORD: “Refrain your voice from weeping, and your eyes from tears; for your work shall be rewarded, says the LORD, and they shall come back from the land of the enemy. There is hope in your future, says the LORD, that your children shall come back to their own border” (Jer. 31:16-17).
12.Then the LORD said to Noah, “Come into the ark, you and all your household, because I have seen that you are righteous before Me in this generation” (Gen. 7:1).
13.Then they brought little children to Him, that He might touch them; but the disciples rebuked those who brought them. But when Jesus saw it, He was greatly displeased and said to them, "Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God. Assuredly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it." And He took them up in His arms, laid His hands on them, and blessed them. (Mark 10:13-16).
14.He will bring justice to the poor of the people; He will save the children of the needy, and will break in pieces the oppressor. (Ps. 72:4)
15.But You are the same and Your years will have no end.  The children of Your servants will continue, and their descendants will be established before You (Ps. 102:27-28).
16.Yet she is your companion, and your wife by covenant. But did He not make them one, having a remnant of the Spirit? And why one?  He seeks godly offspring.  Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously with the wife of his youth.  (Mal 2:15)
17.For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.  (Eph 2:10)
18.For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world--our faith.  Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?  (1 John 5:4-5)
19.The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice, and he who begets a wise child will delight in him. 25Let your father and your mother be glad, and let her who bore you rejoice.  (Prov 23:24-25)
20.…for your prayer is heard; and your wife will bear you a son, and you shall call his name ….  And you will have joy and gladness, and many will rejoice at his birth. For he will be great in the sight of the Lord,... He will also be filled with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother's womb. And he will turn many of the children of … to the Lord their God. He will turn the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.  (Luke 1:13)
21.…being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ; (Phil 1: 6)
22.By You I have been upheld from birth; You are He who took me out of my mother’s womb. My praise shall be continually of You. (Psalm 71:6)
 


Building Faith for Pregnancy & Childbirth

Seek the LORD while He may be found, Call upon Him while He is near.  Let the wicked forsake his way, And the unrighteous man his thoughts; Let him return to the LORD, And He will have mercy on him; And to our God, For He will abundantly pardon.  "For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways," says the LORD.  "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.  "For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, And do not return there, But water the earth, And make it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower And bread to the eater, So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.  "For you shall go out with joy, And be led out with peace; The mountains and the hills Shall break forth into singing before you, And all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. (Isa 55:6-12)

Blessings: And He will love you and bless you and multiply you; He will also bless the fruit of your womb and the fruit of your land, your grain and your new wine and your oil, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flock, in the land of which He swore to your fathers to give you.  You shall be blessed above all peoples; there shall not be a male or female barren among you or among your livestock.  And the LORD will take away from you all sickness, and will afflict you with none of the terrible diseases of Egypt, which you have known, but will lay them on all those who hate you. (Deut 7:13-15)

Deuteronomy 28:

"Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today, that the LORD your God will set you high above all nations of the earth. 2And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, because you obey the voice of the LORD your God: 4"Blessed shall be the fruit of your body, the produce of your ground and the increase of your herds, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks. 11And the LORD will grant you plenty of goods, in the fruit of your body, in the increase of your livestock, and in the produce of your ground, in the land of which the LORD swore to your fathers to give you. if you heed the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you today, and are careful to observe them. 14So you shall not turn aside from any of the words which I command you this day, to the right or the left, to go after other gods to serve them.

- Curses: 15"But it shall come to pass, if you do not obey the voice of the LORD your God, to observe carefully all His commandments and His statutes which I command you today, that all these curses will come upon you and overtake you: 18"Cursed shall be the fruit of your body and the produce of your land, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks.  21The LORD will make the plague cling to you until He has consumed you from the land which you are going to possess.  22The LORD will strike you with consumption, with fever, with inflammation, with severe burning fever, with the sword, with scorching, and with mildew; they shall pursue you until you perish.  27The LORD will strike you with the boils of Egypt, with tumors, with the scab, and with the itch, from which you cannot be healed. 28The LORD will strike you with madness and blindness and confusion of heart.  35The LORD will strike you in the knees and on the legs with severe boils which cannot be healed, and from the sole of your foot to the top of your head.  41You shall beget sons and daughters, but they shall not be yours; for they shall go into captivity.   58"If you do not carefully observe all the words of this law that are written in this book, that you may fear this glorious and awesome name, THE LORD YOUR GOD, 59then the LORD will bring upon you and your descendants extraordinary plagues--great and prolonged plagues--and serious and prolonged sicknesses. 60Moreover He will bring back on you all the diseases of Egypt, of which you were afraid, and they shall cling to you. 61Also every sickness and every plague, which is not written in this Book of the Law, will the LORD bring upon you until you are destroyed.


At Birth

Believe
Say/Action

Know before labour
The perfect time - Shall I bring to the time of birth, and not cause delivery?" says the LORD.  "Shall I who cause delivery shut up the womb?" says your God. (Isa 66:9-10).  So when her days were fulfilled for her to give birth, (Gen 25:24).  To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven (Ecc 3:1-2).
Our Child will be born in the perfect time.  

"Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me? (Jer 32:27).  No.  You are the Almighty God and My Father.  Thank You Jesus.

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.  And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. (Rom 12:1-2)

For there is no partiality with God. (Rom 2:11).  And I would be able to give birth quicker and easier than the Jewish woman because I’m under a better covenant in Jesus Christ. “The midwives said to Pharaoh, "Because the Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women; for they are lively and give birth before the midwives come to them." (Ex 1:19).  God said, "Do you know the time when the wild mountain goats bear young?  Or can you mark when the deer gives birth?  Can you number the months that they fulfill?  Or do you know the time when they bear young?  They bow down, They bring forth their young, They deliver their offspring, Their young ones are healthy, They grow strong with grain; They depart and do not return to them. (Job 39:1-4).  So our Child will be as Healthy as You said.

 

Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness! You have relieved me in my distress; have mercy on me, and hear my prayer. (Ps 4:1) Jesus said, Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full. (John16:24).  We thank you for a perfectly formed spirit, soul and body for our Child.  Thank you Holy Spirit for dwelling within our children.  The Blood of Jesus flows through their veins.  And comes from peace into peace.  Surrounded by Your protection, Your blood and filled with all wisdom and understanding.  The labour is a peaceful and wonderful time just like you intended.  Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. (Phil 4:6-7) “I sought the LORD, and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.” (Ps 34:4).  God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.  Therefore we will not fear, even though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; though its waters roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah  (Ps. 46:1-2)
 


But through knowledge the righteous will be delivered (Prov 11:9).  Through knowledge of what? And delivered from what? Knowledge of what God promised through His Son Jesus Christ, understanding our covenant right.  Because we are the righteous in Christ (2 Cor. 5:21).  In righteousness I shall be established; I shall be far from oppression, for I shall not fear; And from terror, for it shall not come near me (Isa 54:14).  Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, "Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree"), that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.  (Gal. 3:13-14)

Guard our minds - Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. (Col 2:8)
For You are my hope, O Lord GOD; You are my trust from my youth.  By You I have been upheld from birth; You are He who took me out of my mother's womb.  My praise shall be continually of You (Ps 71:5-6).  Glory and Majesty belongs to your name LORD.  Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place. (2 Cor 2:14).  He brought out His people with joy, His chosen ones with gladness. (Ps 105:43)
 

The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life. (Job 33:4)


Peace
Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. (John 14:27)
Trust in God, humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. (1 Pet 6-7)

Surely He has borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken, Smitten by God, and afflicted.  But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed. (Isaiah 53: 4-5)
Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass. (Ps 37:5).  They shall not labor in vain, Nor bring forth children for trouble; For they shall be the descendants of the blessed of the LORD, And their offspring with them. (Isa 65:23)
 

Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. (Rom 15:13)
You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You. (Isa 26:3).  My mind is on you Jesus. Whoever believes in Jesus Christ will not be put to shame (Rom. 9:33)

Strength
Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the LORD your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you." (Deut 31:6) I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. (Philippians 4:13)
Who is in you? I am of God and have overcome them, because He who is in me is greater than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4).  For the joy of the LORD is my strength. (Neh 8:10).  But my God shall supply all my needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. (Phil 4:19).  God is my strength and power, And He makes my way perfect. (2 Sam 22:33)  Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28)

Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.'  "Behold, all those who were incensed against you shall be ashamed and disgraced; They shall be as nothing, And those who strive with you shall perish.  You shall seek them and not find them-- Those who contended with you.   Those who war against you Shall be as nothing, As a nonexistent thing.  For I, the LORD your God, will hold your right hand, Saying to you, "Fear not, I will help you.' (Isa 41: 10-13)

Remember and repeat - For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. (2 Tim 1:7).  There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love. (1 John 4:18)  29 He gives power to the weak, And to those who have no might He increases strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, And the young men shall utterly fall, But those who wait on the LORD Shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint. (Is 40:29-31)

Protection
No evil shall befall you, Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling; for He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways. (Ps 91:10-11)

Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me; You will stretch out Your hand Against the wrath of my enemies, And Your right hand will save me.  The LORD will perfect that which concerns me; Your mercy, O LORD, endures forever; Do not forsake the works of Your hands. (Psa 138:7-8). 


 

"And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, So that he will not destroy the fruit of your ground, Nor shall the vine fail to bear fruit for you in the field," Says the LORD of hosts; (Mal 3:11
No weapon formed against me shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against me in judgment I shall condemn.  This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is from Me," Says the LORD. (Is 54:17)

Joy
Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. (Romans 15:13)



Healing

Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases, Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with loving-kindness and tender mercies, (Psalm 103:2-4)

James 1

Jam 1:5  But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and with no reproach, and it shall be given to him.

Spiritual roles and gifts
Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus accursed, and no one can say that Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit. There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills (1 Cor. 12:3-11).

And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues. Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles? Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret? But earnestly desire the best gifts. And yet I show you a more excellent way (1 Cor. 12:28-31)


Re: Tongues, Prophecy

Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy. For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the spirit he speaks mysteries. But he who prophesies speaks edification and exhortation and comfort to men. He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church. I wish you all spoke with tongues, but even more that you prophesied; for he who prophesies is greater than he who speaks with tongues, unless indeed he interprets, that the church may receive edification. (1 Cor. 14:1-5).

“What is the conclusion then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will also pray with the understanding. I will sing with the spirit, and I will also sing with the understanding.” (1 Cor. 14:15).  Everyone should be able to pray in both (Jude 1:20; Mark 16:17-18)


Power over the enemy
“Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” (Luke 10:19).

 

Power works in us
“You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world” (1 John 4:4).


“Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us” (Eph. 3:20).

Power through the authority of Jesus Christ
“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in My name, I will do it” (John 14:12-14).  Not only to the disciples but to those who believe in Him.


“Assuredly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven” (Matt. 18:18)


“But Jesus looked at them and said to them, "With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible” (Matt. 19:26).  With is the operative Word.  Without God we can do nothing.


“And these signs will follow those who believe in My name, they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover" (Mark 16:17-18)


“Truly the signs of an apostle were accomplished among you with all perseverance, in signs and wonders and mighty deeds” (2 Cor. 12:12).


“For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us” (2 Cor. 1:20)


“So Jesus answered and said to them, "Have faith in God (not self but God - John 15:1-11). For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says (not thinks) to this mountain, "Be removed and be cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them” (Mark 11:22-24)
