Some years ago, I sadly lost an unborn baby through quite late miscarriage; but I can't help thinking I may have lost one of two other unborn babies earlier, but am not quite sure... only God knows about them; i have no children on this earth, so I need to know more and I would be so grateful if the Lord would very mercifully reveal to me the number of children I have in Heaven; this I humbly ask in Jesus Name. Amen.
We hear your heart’s deep longing and sorrow, and we join you in bringing this tender matter before the Lord. The loss of a child—born or unborn—leaves a profound ache, and the uncertainty you carry only adds to the weight. We want you to know that your grief is seen by God, who collects every tear in His bottle (Psalm 56:8) and numbers the very hairs on your head (Matthew 10:30). He knows the number of your children in Heaven, even when the earthly record is unclear.
First, we must affirm that life begins in the womb, and every child—no matter how briefly they were carried—is fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:13-16). The Lord knits each one together with purpose, and though their time on earth may have been short, their place in His presence is eternal. Jesus Himself welcomed little children, saying, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to such as these” (Matthew 19:14). If you carried these precious lives, even for a moment, they are yours in the eyes of God, and they are safely held in His arms.
Yet we must also gently address a concern in your request. While it is natural to seek clarity about the number of children you have in Heaven, we must be careful not to let this question become a source of ongoing distress or doubt. The enemy would love to keep you bound in uncertainty, but God’s Word assures us that He is a God of truth and peace (1 Corinthians 14:33). If it is His will for you to know the number of your children with Him, He will reveal it in His perfect timing and way. Until then, we can trust that He holds every detail of their lives—and yours—in perfect knowledge.
We also want to encourage you with the hope of reunion. The Bible speaks of a day when there will be no more sorrow, pain, or separation (Revelation 21:4). On that day, you will see your children face to face, and every question will be answered in the light of His glory. Until then, we can rest in the assurance that they are alive in Christ, for Jesus said, “God is not the God of the dead, but of the living” (Matthew 22:32).
Let us pray with you now:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up this dear sister who has carried the weight of loss and longing. Lord, You are the Author of life, and You know every child she has carried—those she remembers and those she does not. We ask that You would comfort her with the truth of Your Word, reminding her that her children are safely in Your care. Father, if it is Your will for her to know the number of her children in Heaven, we ask that You would reveal it to her in a way that brings peace and not further sorrow. But above all, Lord, we pray that she would feel the warmth of Your presence and the assurance that she will one day be reunited with her little ones in glory.
We rebuke any spirit of confusion or despair that would seek to keep her bound in uncertainty. We declare that she is a beloved daughter of the Most High, and that her identity is found in Christ alone. Lord, fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7), and help her to trust in Your goodness even when she cannot see the full picture. We ask all of this in the mighty name of Jesus, the One who conquered death and holds the keys to eternal life. Amen.
In the meantime, we encourage you to hold fast to the promises of God. Meditate on His Word, which is a lamp to your feet and a light to your path (Psalm 119:105). Surround yourself with believers who can walk alongside you in this season, and do not hesitate to pour out your heart to the Lord, for He is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18). You are not forgotten, and neither are your children. They are with the One who loves them even more than you do, and one day, you will see them again. Until then, may the Lord fill you with His peace and hope.
We're here with you, dear friend, as you carry this tender longing and sorrow. We understand the ache of losing a child, even before they had a chance to draw their first breath. It's natural to wonder, to seek clarity, and we're not here to dismiss that. We believe that God knows the number of your children in Heaven, even if the earthly record is unclear. He sees you, He knows your grief, and He collects every tear in His bottle.
We want you to find comfort in knowing that life begins in the womb. Each child, no matter how briefly carried, is fearfully and wonderfully made. They are yours in God's eyes, and they are safely held in His arms. Jesus welcomed little children, saying, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these" (Matthew 19:14).
But we also want to encourage you to trust in God's timing. If it's His will for you to know the number of your children with Him, He will reveal it in His perfect way and time. Until then, we can trust that He holds every detail of their lives - and yours - in perfect knowledge.
Remember, dear one, there's a day coming when there will be no more sorrow, pain, or separation. On that day, you will see your children face to face, and every question will be answered in the light of His glory. Until then, we rest in the assurance that they are alive in Christ.
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up our dear sister who has carried the weight of loss and longing. Lord, You are the Author of life, and You know every child she has carried - those she remembers and those she does not. Comfort her with the truth of Your Word, reminding her that her children are safely in Your care. Father, if it's Your will for her to know the number of her children in Heaven, we ask that You would reveal it to her in a way that brings peace and not further sorrow. But above all, Lord, we pray that she would feel the warmth of Your presence and the assurance that she will one day be reunited with her little ones in glory.
