I a friend of mind has been having a rough time. She finally became pregnant through vitro (with triplets). She lost one about three months ago, then a month ago her water broke..and she is not due until Oct. At first they thought that one of the babies would for sure pass away (if not both). They put her on bed rest for the remainder of the pregnancy with her feet in the air at all times (except to go to bathroom). I want to send her a card with an encouraging verse..or one that will help her. She just found out the other day that one of the babies is a boy!! They do not know the sex of the other yet..but amazingly enough..they are doing "okay" at this point. Any suggestions on verse?

Thank you

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea.

though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. <>Psalm 46; 1-3

The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom will I trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.

<>Psalm 138;7

Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved. <>Psalm 55; 22

Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait I say, on the Lord. <>Psalm 27;14

Psalms is a wonderful place to find comfort...check them out there are lots and lots of inspiring verses to use... :whistling::whistling:

Love and Blessings,

Angel

Thank you for the verse! I understand I maybe should not have posted this in this forum..seeing as this is more for doctrinal posts. Thank you again and God Bless!

Aida,

I am moved for your friend. I will definitely be in prayer for her. God has blessed me with 5 children so far and I know the joy they are and the pain that forever stays in your heart for them.

First, I would caution your friend to wait on the LORD. It is He who opens the womb, who gives life, who sends children. But that should not cause her to fear. God is a faithful and loving God. No trial He may send her (as in the one that has passed) will be beyond what she can bare. He will make a way for her to stand or escape.

Perhaps she will find comfort in the fact that God is in control. Let her trust in God and say with Job:

"I know that thou canst do every [thing]..."

After this Job was blessed with twice as much as he had before. Perhaps it may be that your friend will be blessed yet with two children whereas she has lost one that in learning by trial to fear and honor God her reward may be great.

I will pray that her faith remains and that she is tried and found pleasing to God.

In Christ,

Eric

    • 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.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • 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.
