The Barren Women Rejoice

Last time I posted on this blog, I had spoken of Hannah and how the Lord hearkened to an honest prayer and opened the womb of a barren woman.

As Hannah rejoiced yet over her man child, Samuel, she gets on her praying knees which had served her well and utters one of my favorite verses.

Sa 2:5 They that were full have hired out themselves for bread; and they that were hungry ceased: so that the barren hath born seven; and she that hath many children is waxed feeble.

Just today, I stumbled upon verse nine of Psalm 113.

Psa 113:9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the LORD.

Amen, Lord! How many Biblical women were barren, yet the Lord opened their wombs. Sarah, Rebekah, Rachel, Hannah and Elisabeth, yet none did the Lord forsake. I know a lot can be said and taught from this, but tonight, my heart rejoices in that we, also, serve that same God of miracles.

Heb 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.

Praise ye the Lord, for He doeth great things for His children; miraculous things for His daughters.

If our Lord Jesus Christ maketh the barren to bare seven children and maketh her a joyful mother then that can only reaffirm that nothing is too impossible for Him.

Matthew 19:26 With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.

What, then, have I to doubt, what have I to fear? Nothing, for the Lord, He is my God.

Joshua 2:11 For the LORD your God, he is God in heaven above, and in earth beneath.

Amen, Sarah! Nothing is impossible with our Father.
