Scriptural Confessions for Pregnancy& Delivery

Heavenly Father,I thank you for the fruit of the womb and the privilege of bringing your heritage baby....into the world(Ps127:3"Sons are a heritage from the Lord,children a reward from Him"). 

I thank you that you are Lord my shepherd therefore my body will not be in want of all it needs to carry this pregnancy till the appointed time and baby...will not be in want of all he needs for full and appropriate development(Ps 23:1"The Lord is my shepherd,I shall not be in want").

According to your word in Galatians 1:15"But when God,who set me apart from birth and called me by his grace", at the the perfect time, when it please you, you will separate baby...from my womb.Therefore I line up with Your word and declare that I shall not suffer miscarriage and the number of my days you will fulfil(Exodus 23:26" and none will miscarry or be barren in your land,I will give you a full life span").Baby....will be born at the time You have ordained.

Father,I thank you that your thoughts towards baby..and me are of good, and not evil but to bring us to an expected end(Jeremiah 29:11"For I know the plans I have for you,declares the Lord,plans to prosper you and not harm you,plans to give you hope and a future"). To this end we stand on Your Word and declare that the expected end of this pregnancy will be the safe delivery of a perfect and healthy child. On the day of delivery,Your joy will be our strength(Nehemiah 8:10"Go and enjoy choice food and sweet drinks,and send some to those who have nothing prepared.This day is sacred to our Lord.Do not grieve,for the joy of the Lord is your strength") and I shall not labour in vain nor have trouble bringing forth, the baby..and I are blessed of the Lord(Isaiah 65:23"They will not toil in vain or bear children doomed to misfortune for they will be a people blessed by the Lord,they and their descendants with them").

Furthermore, I am assured that baby...is good and perfect because You the Father of lights in whom there is no variation or shadow of turning gives good and perfect gifts(James 1:17"Every good and perfect gift is from above,coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights,who does not change like shifting shadows").

As your Child,confident in your word and faithfulness, I allow the peace of God to rule in my heart and I refuse to worry about anything concerning this pregnancy and the safe delivery if baby...(Col.3:15"Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts,since as members of one body you were called to peace.And be thankful"). I take authority over the spirit of fear and doubt and declare that I operate under the spirit of love. power and sound mind given to me by you(2 Tim 1:7"For God did not give us a spirit of timidity,but a spirit of power,of love and of self-discipline"). I also bring into captivity every thought,imaginations and every high thing that wants to exalt itself against Your word(2 Corinthians 10:5"We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ").

My dear heavenly Father,I give you all the praise and glory for I know that just as you separated me from my mother's womb and have upheld me from birth(Psalms 71:6"From birth I have relied on you;you brought me forth from my mother's womb,I will ever praise you"). You will do the same for baby....Thank you Lord for perfecting all that concerns me during this pregnancy through to baby...delivery(Psalms 138:8"The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me,your love,O lord endures for ever.Do not abandon the works of your hands").


Psalms 139:13"For you created my inmost being;you knit me together in my mother's womb".

Amen

Unconditional love

As I went home last yesterday, I heard the song 'In harms way'  by BeBe Winans, Rhett Lawrence, Margaret Bell-Byars. When listening to music, I want to know the lyrics,what the song is communicating and how it applies in my life. This song reminds me of God's unconditional love, even when I do not deserve it, even when I have given up , even when he knows all He knows about me, he doesn't let go of me. That is just amazing. Undying love you've given to me Seen in me things I would never have seen I don't understand why you care so much, it's all a mystery Time and time again I ask myself What have I done to deserve such wealth The price you paid, I could never repay your generosity Chorus: In wanting to save me In order to save the day Because of love you placed yourself In harm's way It's truly beyond me Left without a word to say What kind of love would place itself In harm's way? What kind of love would place itself In harm...

Weight-Part 2

Once the baby is breastfeeding and starts to wean, the eyes shift from the mother to the child. Common comments ‘ what are you feeding your baby on? They are growing so well. During baby clinics, pressure mounts because your child's weight gain doesn't seem to match that of another or a friend's child. Next time you take the baby for vaccination open your ears and eyes. It’s like people are sizing each other up, or trying to boost their image especially if their baby “seems” to be ahead of others. I know this is a sensitive topic but all am saying is, yes the mother/parents have worked pretty hard to ensure that their baby is growing well and that is ok and we appreciate the good job done, but hey do we stop to think about that other woman/family who is feeling like a failure because as per the society as long as your baby is not growing as well as we expect, the mother( most times) isn't doing a good job? Do we ask ourselves why isn't that child not growing as...
Looking back at where I am today and where the 8-4-4 system had placed me, I thank God that He has a purpose and plan for all of us. At times I wonder whether I will be able to tell my kids that I was never in the top 10 position in class. Most of our parents have told us how they were position 1 in their class and I always wonder who was last? Think about it. I envy today’s young generation. Having being raised in Kericho and Nakuru in my younger days, I didn’t know English too well and at 6 years I was speaking broken English. My first birthday was so memorable and exciting in that I could not say birthday and would welcome my friends and visitors by saying ‘welcome to my passday’. Oh well ,thank God that we catch up quick and I went to Milimani Primary and later Nairobi Primary and my report forms would read “ Sylvia is very playful and can do better if she settled down" or "slight imporvement but can do better". Class 8 came and I scored 432/700, and that was ok...
