Grace to you,

My wife and I were a bit older when we had our last child and they asked us the same thing. I looked the Doctor square in the eye and said," it doesn't matter what condition this child will be in, it will be a gift from God and He will gain all the Glory. We aren't interested in the tests, our Faith is in Jesus." Then my wife nodded and agreed. The only tests we took were the ones that tested for bacteria and such that might cause problems with the delivery. Those tests are incredibly error prone and I know of many women who have tested false positive for a whole rack of maladies.

Stand your ground beloved of God and let them know who the Lord is. :blink:

You should also read our fearless Leader at Worthy's testimony. George and his wife were told to abort their baby because he was going to be born with a malady. However, after George peeled his wife Rivka's fist off of the Doctors forehead, :( (just kidding) they put their Faith in God and prayer.

The child was born perfectly healthy and normal and is one doggon' handsome kid. He is a sincere blessing and I know because I got to hold him when he was a wee little baby.I also had the deepest honor one can have in this life, partnering with the Faithhful and God in praying for a child like this.

May the Lord Himself watch over your child and fearfullly forming him/her in the image of our alltogether Lovely Savior Jesus, in complete health so that God may gain all the Glory, Amen! :laugh:

Peace,

Dave

Thank you Dave!!! It's awesome testimonies like this that build our faith in the goodness of our Lord and savior!

I am definately standing my ground in faith. My baby is a glorious gift from God and he/she will be made in His image.

God bless you dave

As some of you may know I'm expecting baby # 8 in June.

Due to my advanced age :blink: I have to have certain test done to ensure the health of my child.

Yesterday the doctor's office called me to scheduel a 2nd degree ultra sound. The first hospital they called for an appointment couldn't set an appointment until the end of February. My doctor informed me that was too far away, because if the test came back positive for these deseases I needed time to terminate my pregnancy. :(

I let the doctor know in uncertain terms that that is not even a concideration no matter what the test results were!!!!!

How could parents, who are having a baby, take care of the mother and baby, seek health care, and go thru that far in a pregnancy, then say "kill my baby because something MAY be wrong"

How disgusting, disturbed, and selfish is that!!!!

how disgusting,distured,andselfish that is ,,,, you are so right stacey ,,, my wife had our last child at 38 and refused the test ,,, we let the cards fall as they may and olivia is a blessing and would be one no matter what ,,, i hear ya ,,, arrow from god

I have friends, that have been told their baby was misformed because of certain results of certain test.....

they ignored..... rebuked the doctor when the doctor said they should terminate the pregnancy..... and well, God took care of the situation..... and the babies were just fine.....

personaly, should some one not want their child, let us know and we will take care of the child.....

a prayer we pray, Lord, send us the ones no one else wants.......

if you are uncomfortable with this doctor, i believe it is time to find one that holds human life sacred.......

blessings....

The word "No" leaves no room for negotiation. I suggest you say it in such a way that the doctor and his staff are left with no doubt as to where you stand.

believe me Rufus, they know exactly where I stand. And I shall not be moved!!!!

Stacey,

Congrats on #8. My husband had 8 kids in his family which included two sets of twins (all boys) eighteen months apart. There was only one girl.

I had my last child when I was 38, and I had a perfectly healthy boy.

I feel that our heavenly Dad is sifting the chaff from the wheat maybe even more so than He's done in the past. His first priority is finding out whether we're going to trust Him or our selves. He wants a people that is sold out--lock, stock and barrel--to Him! There's absolutely nothing like standing firm and seeing Him move on your behalf. Oh, my WHAT JOY awaits those who are completely HIS.

I'll be praying!

Hugs,

Darlene (riel)

They offer the same tests to those of us who are younger too (woo hoo I have 4 yrs till being called advanced maternal age). I always refuse them. They are frequently wrong, and no matter how my child turns out they are still my child and I will love them regardless. Weather they live a lifetime, or if that lifetime is one minute I will love them anyway, and want only what God wants for them. Stand your ground hun!

    • 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!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this study, I'll be focusing on Daniel and his picture of the resurrection and its connection with Yeshua (Jesus).

    • 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.
