did he really say pregnant and in labor?

Ok…this morning I blogged about possibly being pregnant…and people praying for me and talking to me about having children…and being in labor…and then…

Tonight at the revival meeting, the leader says…”Tonight, I am going to talk about birthing the impossible.  Being pregnant, in labor and birthing the promises of God.” 

He talked about what to do with prophecies or promises God has given you.  It was amazing!!!

I have been having a hard time…praying for something to come to pass–IN LABOR–and he basically said it was impossible to do…apart from God…in our own strength.  Like when Mary became pregnant with the promise of God, He overshadowed her and became one with her.  We have to do that too.  Mary said, “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.” Luke 1:38 

He also said that sometimes when we are called of God, that we go through difficult times because God has created a “perfect storm” for us to work in us the character to be what He needs us to be…to fulfill the call on our lives.   But we can keep the peace in the storm!  Mary’s calling brought physical discomfort and pain. It brought death threats and isolation. It brought the heart wrenching pain of a mother seeing her son killed, and converged with seeing her Lord taking her sins upon Himself. As a young mother, she had to flee with her husband and son to a foreign land. She was widowed and her care was passed over to the friend of her son.   But she was blessed.

He talked about keeping the faith and trusting God, like Abraham did in the bible, when God showed him the stars, the sand and then said his descendants would be like that.  It seemed impossible, he was old, and his wife was barren.  BUT he believed God, learned to birth the impossible and it was credited to him as righteousness.  Wow!

span>He talked about the power of God living within us…There was a scientific study they did where they spoke negative things over water, and the water crystals would break, then they would bless them, and they would reform…and another time a whole group of scientists started blessing a water source that was very polluted, and it got completely better.  

He talked about the power in our words, thoughts, emotions to change things for good or bad. The main theme of the talk was to be internally eternal.  Focus on things that are from above not here on the earth…not what you see…but what you hope for.  Don’t let chaos effect you…but effect it with the peace of walking with a God focus!

God will change us from the inside to the outside!
