Can I Still Conceive After I Have Entered My Menopause? (Part 3)

October 21st, 2009

The Promise Itself

When Abraham was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to him and said, I am God almighty, walk before me and I will greatly increase your numbers. Genesis 17:1-2.

God also gave Abraham this promise regarding Sarah his wife. “I will bless her and surely give you a son by her. I will bless her so that she will be the mother of nations, kings of people will come from her.” Abraham fell face down; he laughed and said to himself, “will a son be born to a man a hundred years old? Will Sarah bear a child at the age of ninety?” Genesis 17:15-17

When God gave this couple this promise, He did not say to them, “Abraham go and look for a man at the fertility clinic to donate sperm for you to impregnate your wife.”

God did not say to Sarah, “go look for a woman you can pay to donate eggs for you, or who will lend a womb to you by carrying your baby because you are so old, or “go for IVF- let the doctors mix Abraham’s sperm and your eggs in a glass and try to make a child for you.

”I am not condemning anything here but all I am saying is that God’s power is far above all these things. Where man’s power ends Gods power begins for those who believe in his word. Many of you would have tried a lot of stuff and gotten no result but I want you to know God’s word cannot fail you.

God told Abraham and Sarah they were going to have fun making that baby. They were going to have pleasure, have the child in the way ordained by God. And the next time the angel of God came to Abraham, Sarah was listening at the entrance to the tent, which was behind him.

Abraham and Sarah were already old and well advanced in years, and Sarah was past the age of childbearing. So she laughed to herself as she thought, “After I am worn out and my master is old, will we now have this pleasure?”

Then the Lord said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh and say, “will I really have a child, now that I am old”? Is anything hard for the Lord? I will return to you at the appointed time next year and Sarah will have a son.” Genesis 18:10-14. I ask you sister, is anything hard for the Lord? What you say is what you will get.

We read in Sarah’s words her response to God’s promise; she could not comprehend how she would make love at 91 years old. “After I am worn out and my master is old, will we now have this pleasure?” She did not think it was possible for her and Abraham to make love anymore, talk much less of having a child. But God’s Word is true and sure. They had a promise bigger than the problem and only their faith in God could bring them into that promise.

Discover How To Become Pregnant By Next Year Mothers Day Using God’s word! Part 1

October 3rd, 2009

 

Its mother’s day again and for many women this will be a time of sadness as they may not yet have become pregnant and had children of their own. I want to encourage you from God’s word today. Be blessed as you read!

In Genesis 41:51-52, Joseph named his firstborn Manasseh and said, “It is because God has made me forget all my trouble and my entire father’s household.” The second son he named Ephraim and said, “It is because God has made me fruitful in the land of my suffering.”

For some reasons God may allow you to go through hard times. All your mates may have children and you may be the only one without any child. You may have suffered miscarriage or even lost a child at birth.

You may not understand why all these things may have happened to you, but I want you to know that at the end it will all work out for your good. The bible says in Isaiah 7-8, “For a brief moment I abandoned you, but with deep compassion I will bring you back. In a surge of anger I hid my face from you for a moment, but with everlasting kindness I will have compassion on you,” says the LORD your Redeemer”. God says to you today, “watch out I am going to show up in your life in a BIG WAY in Jesus name”.

Joseph was sold and brought into Egypt as a slave. The bible says in Genesis 39:1, “Now Joseph had been taken down to Egypt. Potiphar bought him from the Ishmaelites who had taken him there. Joseph never anticipated God will lift him up to become the Prime Minster and leader of the land of Egypt one day considering the way he arrived in Egypt, but that’s exactly what God did.

You may have been waiting for a long time to get pregnant and hold your child in your arms and wondering why it has been so hard for you to become pregnant. This mother’s day I want to let you know that God is not through with you yet. You may be saying in your heart God has forgotten me.

But the bible says, “Zion said, “The LORD has forsaken me, the Lord has forgotten me.” “Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you! See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are ever before me-Isaiah 49:14-16.
