I recently had a miscarriage after praying hard every day for a healthy baby. I am fine now, and I still believe that God has His will for my life. I may never understand why this happened, and it's fine. I am just terrified that next time we get pregnant, that I will pray hard everyday, read my Bible every day, and end up having the baby, but it not be healthy. I feel like my prayers are in vain if God has a different will for my life. I just feel so discouraged and lost.

Hi anh356, Much love to you...

I agree with you that so many times our thoughts go to the side of not turning out well...that's the way our minds want to think about things...instead of good things we think that everything will turn out not so good...because mainly that's the way my life went without God in my life...That's the way I've thought about things alot...and still catch myself trying to slip back into that thinking...I've had a miscarriage too...and I'd just like to talk a little-if it's ok...

 

I truly believe God wants good for us-and I truly believe that good things do happen to us when He is in our life-because I've lived it...I know alot of the time we do not know the future...and really I would rather it be that way...How would our lives be-if we knew every single thing that would happen until the day we die...Choice...A very powerful word...I choose to believe that whatever happens in my life-that God is with me...and I truly believe everything happens for a reason...Now I believe this because God is in my life!!! I mean He isn't just Someone out there...He is Real and He is in my life!!! And I am just as close to Him as I can possibly get...He was not always in my life...I truly believe that makes a big, big difference!!!

 

The words of The Bible Are True...Every Word...Including The Word That Says: Our minds can be renewed!!! Wow...I can now think pretty good thoughts...And Loved...I mean loved!!! We are Loved!!! Not humanly love-Divine Love-Perfect and Pure-from God!!! Whew...I needed to take Him Into My Life As My Savior...I desparately needed saving...Jesus Came To Earth As A Man...Was Beaten and Bruised For Our Sin...He died on The Cross so we wouldn't have to...Made a way that we could have a relationship with God again...He paid the price for sin for us so we wouldn't have to...On The Third Day He Rose From The Dead and Now Sits At The Right Hand of The Father...Coming Again One Day For Us Who Believe...We Are His Bride-The Church!!! Whew...I can't wait!!! Goodness...But in the meantime...

 

I have a healthy 10 year old daughter to raise!!!

 

When I did have a miscarriage there were many women where I worked that had had even more than one miscarriage...My heart hurt for them...and eventually I sat down at the kitchen table with my God and a heavy burden that I didn't even know I was carrying...and we had a conversation...a bit one sided...at the time...Hahaha...I told Him (God) I didn't know what I had done but that if He wanted me to have a child, eventually, that I would...and if He didn't want me to have a child...(I was 42 by now) that I would be perfectly happy not to...but whatever He wanted I wanted!!! And so, 1 year and 11 months after I had the miscarriage I spoke with my God about it all...within one month I was pregnant again!!! And guess what I did...I cried...Lord, I don't know if I'm ready for this now!!! But what had I said? Well...He was there that day in the conversation!!! Oh yes He was...and He made it perfectly clear what He wanted...Oh my...And He has made The Way For Everything Needed...Oh Yes He Has!!! Take Heart...Our God is Good and His Mercy Endures Forever!!!

 

There is only one thing that was suggested to me, by my doctor, that I did differently...and that was to take a multivitamin every day that contained folic acid...Don't do it though without consulting your doctor...Much love to you and Jesus is Everything to me!!! He can be to you too...and we can have life...real life...and walk in His Marvelous Light...Whew...That's my prayer...In Jesus' Name...

Try and remember we have an enemy that seeks to kill, steal, and destroy us especially Christians.  The bad things come from this cursed world we occupy and the one that seeks to destroy us.  It is better that we pray than not pray I know that for sure.  We can't know why these bad things happen only that all things work for good for those that love the Lord.  We can speculate that maybe if you'd given birth it'd harmed you and unborn child.  But I think it's wrong to speculate because it'll drive us mad.  We just have to trust God despite our circumstances.  You've been blessed with another pregnancy and you should try to focus on the good things.  Feeling depressed or afraid while pregnant can definitely effect your baby.  Stay in prayer and stay confident in the Lord.

 

While I haven't been pregnant I do know where you are coming from.  A little over a year ago I had been overcome with a feeling to pray for my family's protection every day.  So I did my best to really intercede with prayers not knowing what was going to happen.  Then one day I had even been worshipping God all day and praising his name.  Even paused the praise song I was listening to and went to the chiropractor.  When I got home I found out my 46 year old brother in law had dropped dead leaving my sister a widow with two small boys.

 

It's been really rough accepting what happened especially considering I was praying for the exact opposite.  My family will never be the same.  My brother in law was one of those awesome people that loved the Lord and his family.  The void of his loss will always be felt and we can only depend on the Lord to comfort us.  We can never understand or see the reason in this life why it happened.  We can only trust in the Lord and know he is with us.

 

The subject still brings me to tears.  So I must go and wipe my eyes.  I will be praying for you and having confidence everything will be perfect for you!  =)

2 Corinthians 1 speaks of going through trials so that someday we can help others with the same things that helped us when we were going through them. So ask God to use it for good, and He will.

Fear is not from God, but perfect love casts out fear. Sometimes our hormones do strange things to our emotions, and the enemy likes to take advantage of things like that. So just get your eyes back on Jesus, the One who loves you so much He went to the cross on your behalf.

Lord Jesus, I am asking that You would be very near to anh to comfort her and strengthen her in body, mind, spirit and faith. You are faithful to your children and are our ever present help in time of need. Please do a beautiful thing in the life of my sister and bless her.

In Jesus' Name, Amen

Blessings anh,

     Welcome to Worthy,I am truly sorry for your loss but it is heavens gain.....your baby is alive with Christ & you will meet one day.I lost my dad last year & I wish I could remember the poem someone recited to me but it went something like my dad was wondering why I was crying because he was only in the next room..........just on the other side of the door......I don't know,it brought me comfort knowing that I will go through that door one day & he will be on the other side of it

    God hears your prayers,I know He does....I don't know why we can't know the reasons that they are not answered as we would want but I do know God knows best and that He only does what is best for us for His higher purpose,for our good & we will give Him glory!When my dad was dying I began to pray for his healing & God let me know that I shouldn't pray for it because He was not going to grant it but that I should pray that he receives Christ and minister to him.....& so I did,and he did.I an grateful that God prepared me for what was to come and it still did not make it any less painful but I did realize that there is so much more than what we can see and know,we just have to trust God & be faithful.

  God already has it all worked out for you,trust Him,keep praying and know that we that are in Christ will all be reunited one day!

                                                                                                                             With love,in Christ-Kwik

My sweet sister,  Don't live in fear.  God has said in His word;  "God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound and well balanced mind".   Your baby is in the hands of the Almighty Father Himself.  

 

No we don't always understand.  I don't think we are supposed to, if we did we would cease to live by faith.  Give the desire of your heart over to God and then step back and rest knowing that He is and always be in control.  He has plans for you sis.  You may feel lost but God has not now nor will He ever loose track of you.  Love you!

I really needed that. Thank you so much for your encouragement. I have been reading the Bible searching for any kind of answer and encouragement and your response is just exactly what I needed. Thank you again.

anh, you are living in fear and that is no way to live.  Fear robs you of today and of all your tomorrows.

 

We don't always understand why things happen.  As I have said before we all have our valleys that we have to through but in that valley that is where the most growth takes place.  

 

Pray and read your Bible because that is what we are supposed to do, to have fellowship with the Lord not because you want a healthy baby. It sounds like your trying to strike a deal with God. The Bible says "God has not given us a spirit of fear but of love and of power and of a sound and well balanced mind"  God has said in His word 365 times fear not.  That is one for each day of our lives every year.  Take hold of that and know if He says it that many times He means it.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
