DAY THIRTY-FOUR: INTERCESSION FOR BABIES

Hello,

Wonderful weekend to us all.

We are reflecting on babies today: babies in the womb and those newly born.

Isn't it a joy to see a little child?

We'll maybe it is because I am a woman but it is such a pleasant thing to see life exuding from that cute little being.

Personally, I am of the view that no child is born evil unless it be the will of God.
Even with that, we are assured of the goodness of our Father and hence, we cannot say that He would create an evil child and place that child in the womb of another.

Our duty as mothers is not to only see to the physical wellbeing of our babies by being religious with our antenatal and postnatal visits to the hospital.

It is not entirely about we taking our short walking exercises seriously and eating all the healthy foods.

We have a duty to also protect the spiritual wellbeing of our babies especially when they are in our wombs.

We must speak life into their lives as they grow inside of us.

We are Christian Women and we are called to be different.

Let us build up the spirituality of our babies.
We must pray for them and with them.

We are mothers and their future depends on us greatly.

As mothers with unplanned pregnancies, we must fight the spirit that compels us to abort these 'unwanted' babies.
The lives of great destinies are put on the line every time these atrocities take place.

I have a friend who decided to fight against the status quo of aborting her baby.
By God's Grace, I have been privileged to see how great the little life growing inside of her is affecting her own life and especially, her relationship with God.

Mothers provide a shield against the attacks of the evil one against their babies.
Locate a praying mother and she will tell you of the many battles she has fought on behalf of her children.

Fathers are not left out of this duty.

Fathers are the overall human protection of the family.
Fathers are called to lead both physically and spiritually.

Sometimes, it is tiring for some mothers to fight spiritually to their utmost capability.

That is where the Godly man comes in to fight and to build up the woman through support and encouragement to also take up the mantle of praying for their babies.

The walking exercises are good: as you walk, don't worry about anything or bother yourself with so many thoughts.
Make your walk a prayer one.
Devote yourself to talking to your babies whiles they are inside of you and as they come out into this world.

There is a lot more I would like to say but let's just start with this.

It's still #SHARINGLIFE.

Don't stop sharing life!

Please don't forget to share your thoughts as well.

God bless!

Go With God

When I started Sharing Life, my intention was to put out what I knew Holy Spirit was teaching me. This was what He asked me to do. It wasn't to parade myself as an all-figured-out girl who was on her way to becoming a preacher.  It was a journey of life I was learning and one which I had received the go-ahead to let the world in on.  Somewhere on this road, I was seen as a "Woman of God" and put on this high and mighty pedestal which wasn't me.  And you know what, in such moments, it is so easy to get carried away by the accolades of men to the point where you lose sight of your journey, where you are and decide to serve the expectations of others... thereby neglecting your own journey and growth.  After taking a very long break from active writing, I have on numerous occasions attempted to start writing again but the fear of being put on that pedestal has stopped me so many times.  I am a child of God. I am a girl on a journey. I don't have it all f...

My journey with Holy Spirit

This might probably be the longest I will ever publish. Here we go... Senior High School I started my relationship with Holy Spirit in St. Louis Senior High School. At that time, my father was going through a bit of a struggle and I didn't want to be a burden to him. I had made a terrible decision to combine my chopbox with a friend's and when my provisions finished, I couldn't call home. I was sad and I remembered that daddy had told me that if I ever wanted to change and be a better human, I should start by reading the "Book of Proverbs".  I came across Wisdom and I prayed for that Friendship and then someway somehow, I believed that I was never alone and that I had a Friend with me and that was when I starting fellowshiping with Holy Spirit.     Prior to this, I remember when I was in class 6, I heard Someone share His heart with me. He asked me, " Why is it that when people have problems, they tell their friends about it and then their fr...

Day six: The perfect start

Waking up to pray has been extremely hard to do in the past few days. For some time now, I wake up in the mornings feeling more tired than I went to bed. And so although my eyes are open, it is a real struggle getting out of the bed. Initially, this morning, I was feeling bad about it. After a few minutes, I resolved to pray from my bed. I did that… and ended up sleeping at a point . It was better than nothing. That moment taught me that the perfect start is the one that happens from exactly where you are. There is a reason why God wants this relationship with us: aside from the fact that it is a love thing, God also knows that we truly and sincerely cannot make it in this life without Him. He Is not looking for a perfect daughter neither is He searching for a perfect son. He Is perfect and His perfection is enough for all of us. I remember those times when I would tell my spiritual father I was struggling to pray. He would say to me: Why don’t you ask the Lord to help you? Why d...
