Miscarriage...you are bound, in Jesus' name


“They triumphed over him (our enemy) by the blood of the Lamb 
and by the word of their testimony…” Rev. 12:11

Miscarriage…horrible…how dare he come against one so innocent and sweet…  He can be bound in Jesus name.  Our King has given us authority over this one, as well. 

A few Saturdays ago, I was driving my daughter and youngest son to a birthday party.  A few minutes before we got there I saw something through my spirit’s eyes.  It was like I was seeing through something else’s eyes.  I saw a dark and confined place but I saw some kind of light towards the right side. It looked like it was a reddish color.  I felt this upset feeling, like fear or the feeling of being uncomfortable so much so that I felt the need to try to help it feel better.  I thought I might have been seeing something inside of me.  I remembered how King David of the Bible would sing to himself and he would encourage himself in the Lord.  So I started singing the song, “Bless the Lord oh my soul, oh my soul, worship His Holy name, sing like never before, oh my soul…”  I sang that through twice but still did not feel totally better, so I just left it up to God to show me what was going on. 

Once we got to the party at the park and the kids had started playing, I looked up and saw a lady and her daughter, about my daughter’s age.  Right away I noticed that the lady was pregnant and it hit me!  I realized that what I had just seen would have been what a baby would see in her mother’s womb!!  I was blown away and asked God if I should somehow go over to her and pray for her and bless her baby and her pregnancy and delivery.  I heard Him confirm, “Yes”, to me so I introduced myself and found out that she was a believer.  She was pregnant with a little girl and her name meant “Life”.  Wow, I was pretty excited, that the God of the Universe allowed me to see with this little one’s eyes and that her name meant “Life”.  I could see how God had put this together and how the enemy could want to attack her life…

So, I started with…”the strangest thing happened to me on the way over here…”  I told her what I saw and she seemed to be excited and didn’t freak out.  I asked her if I could pray for her and she said, “yes”!   I mentioned how I felt some fear and she looked surprised as she shared that she was afraid over this pregnancy because she has had several miscarriages.  Armed with this information I prayed over her and her baby.  Isaiah 61 came to mind because of the call I felt is on her baby’s life, …she will bring life to others because she is anointed and she will bring life and fun to her family.  “No weapon formed against us shall prosper” came to mind and “For God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power, love and of a sound mind”.  I declared in Jesus’ name that her pregnancy and delivery will be safe and blessed and her life will be used for God’s glory.  I encouraged the lady to sing over her daughter and to stand on God’s Word. 

There is more to the story though.  On the way home, I was thinking on this and praising God for this amazing opportunity to see through someone else’s eye, an unborn baby’s eyes of all things!  I then remembered what a sweet friend of mine had just said….  You see, a few weeks ago this friend had just lost a sweet baby boy (18 weeks to miscarriage).  I read her blog and my heart broke…  She wrote out her feelings in such a deep and gut wrenching, open and honest way and at the end of one article she said something that struck me as a huge statement, spiritually speaking.  She said that when she was ready she was going to come against “miscarriage” with such a force!  It was such a horrible thing and she likened it to cancer because it comes to steal life!!

So as I was driving along, I realized that miscarriage still needed to be bound from this sweet little girl.  So, in Jesus’ name I bound miscarriage and commanded it to leave this baby alone, now!  All of a sudden I saw it (miscarriage)!  God allowed me to see…  He was bent over and looked up at me as soon as I commanded him to leave.  His face was almost white as a sheet and his eyes were wide, like in fear.  He wasn’t even very big, kind of small.  He had just pulled his hands out of something, (in my mind I understood it was the lady’s womb), and his hands were dripping red with blood (up to his elbows).  I then said, “In Jesus name, go, leave her alone!!  I heard something like a scream and then it was over.  

Wow, my mind was just praising God and almost not believing what I had just seen…but I stood on God’s Word over this and proclaimed that yes, she was protected and blessed.  I shared this with some friends and family and asked for prayer for her.  Then while I was at church that week, it hit me that the discomfort and the fear and upset feelings that I had felt that this sweet innocent baby was feeling was from Miscarriage’s hands attacking her!  Oh, my heart broke and it filled me with a righteous indignation.  God had allowed me to feel and see a glimpse of what she had felt.  I had seen through her eyes, and felt her discomfort and fear.  So, I say to Miscarriage, you have been found out, your cover is blown and you are a defeated foe. 

I share all of this only because of the verse that God led me to at the beginning.  We defeat our enemy…”by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of (our) testimony” Revelation 12:11.  This is not about me but about Jesus and the authority He has given us all and has asked us to do and to walk in.  If a little 3 year old girl can command a fever to “GO” with one word (a testimony I just read this week) and it left, then we can do that and more in Jesus’ wonderful, powerful and blessed Name!  It’s all in the Bible and Jesus came to give us His example in the New Testament.  God’s power and gifts never ceased.  Praise God!
