TTC members, try harder~! just kidding. =) If you have been having troubles trying to conceive, then hear and believe this word today. Pray, ask God, and it shall be given unto you, a great gift, the gift of a precious child. Raise this child in the fear of the Lord, and thank God for answering your prayers AT THE MOMENT YOU ASK HIM.

Let it be unto you AS you have believed.

peace be with you who are in Christ Jesus.

Be not doubtful or confused. You have been trying to conceive, and it will happen.


Who says? I know several women who were never able to conceive. God has never promised me a child.

He is probably one of those people who believe that being healed is b/c of one's lack of faith... (Which I do not believe and IMO is garbage)

He's basically saying that we are not pregnant because we do not believe it enough. :doh:

OP, the message you have posted implies that children are a commodity, are objects, which God gives to people as rewards for good behaviour or for a demonstration of faith. Children are not objects - they are people. And they are not rewards, they are a blessing. No one can deserve children, but God gives them anyway.

Secondly, your post implies that we can demand things of God. This implies a god who is at the beck and call of humans. That puts us on equal or higher footing than God - this cannot be true. God does not work like magic, we cannot tell Him what to do.

Finally, your post implies that those of us who haven't given birth have some barrier between us and God. It implies that we are worse Christians, and have less faith, than non-believing teenagers who fool around and get pregnant. (sorry, had to make a generalisation of some sort). Can you see that this is a very offensive things to say to women who are spending their lives dedicated to God, surrendering to Him, despite the hardship of not having children?

Since the Fall, God has allowed bad things to happen to good people. Virtue does not prosper us because the devil is active in the world. Ever heard of Job? Unfortuantely lovesdolphins is right. God has not promised us children. All we can do is be open to God's blessings, and hope and pray. These are some of the saintliest women in God's Kingdom, please think and pray about your OP.
