LABOUR and delivery

We join with you in lifting up this precious moment in your life, as you prepare to bring new life into this world. The miracle of childbirth is a beautiful testament to God’s design and His faithfulness, and we are grateful to stand with you in prayer for a safe labor and delivery. The Scriptures remind us that children are a heritage from the Lord, and the fruit of the womb is His reward (Psalm 127:3, WEB). This child is already known and loved by God, who knit them together in your womb (Psalm 139:13-14, WEB). What a sacred and joyful responsibility you carry!
As you approach this time, we encourage you to trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6, WEB). He is the Great Physician, the One who holds your life and the life of this child in His hands. While it is natural to feel anxiety or fear, we urge you to cast all your cares upon Him, for He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7, WEB). Remember the words of Jesus: “Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, give I to you. Don’t let your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful” (John 14:27, WEB). His peace is available to you now, even in the midst of the unknown.
We also want to gently remind you of the importance of inviting the name of Jesus into your prayers. It is through His name—and His name alone—that we have access to the Father and receive the promises of God. Jesus said, “Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you” (John 16:23, WEB). There is no other name under heaven by which we are saved, and it is in His authority that we boldly approach the throne of grace (Acts 4:12, WEB; Hebrews 4:16, WEB). If you have not already placed your faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so now. Salvation comes through believing in Him, confessing your sins, and surrendering your life to His lordship (Romans 10:9-10, WEB). There is no greater security than knowing you and this child are covered by the blood of Jesus.
If you are married, we praise God for the covenant of marriage He has established between you and your husband. Marriage is a reflection of Christ’s love for His church, and children are a blessing within that sacred union (Ephesians 5:22-33, WEB). We pray that this experience would draw you and your husband closer to the Lord and to one another, strengthening your bond as you welcome this new life together. If you are not married, we encourage you to seek the Lord’s guidance and repentance if necessary, as His design for family begins with the covenant of marriage between a man and a woman (Genesis 2:24, WEB). God’s grace is sufficient, and He redeems all things for His glory. Whatever your circumstances, we trust that He will use this season to draw you into deeper dependence on Him.
Now, let us pray together for you and this precious child:
Heavenly Father, we come before You today with hearts full of gratitude and trust, lifting up our sister as she prepares for the birth of this child. Lord, You are the Creator of life, the author of all good things, and the One who holds the future in Your hands. We ask that You would surround her with Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guarding her heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7, WEB). Remove any fear, anxiety, or doubt, and fill her instead with Your Holy Spirit, who brings comfort, strength, and joy.
We pray for a safe and smooth labor and delivery. Lord, guide the hands of every medical professional involved, granting them wisdom, skill, and discernment. Protect our sister from any complications, and let this birth be a testimony to Your goodness and faithfulness. We ask that You would sustain her physically, emotionally, and spiritually, giving her the endurance she needs for each moment. May Your presence be tangibly felt in that delivery room, and may Your name be glorified through this process.
Father, we also lift up this child to You. You have fearfully and wonderfully made them, and we ask that You would knit their little body together perfectly. Bless them with health, strength, and a life that is fully surrendered to You. May they grow to know You as their Savior and Lord from their earliest days. We declare Your protection over them, covering them with the blood of Jesus and shielding them from any harm or evil.
Lord, we ask that You would prepare the hearts of the family who will welcome this child. If our sister is married, we pray that You would strengthen the bond between her and her husband, uniting them in love and purpose as they parent this child together. If she is not married, we ask that You would provide a godly support system around her—a community of believers who will walk alongside her, offering encouragement, practical help, and spiritual guidance. Father, we pray that You would make a way for this child to be raised in a home that honors You, where Your Word is taught and Your love is displayed.
We rebuked any spirit of fear, doubt, or confusion that may try to creep in during this time. Satan has no place here, for greater is He who is in us than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4, WEB). We declare that this birth will be covered in prayer, anointed by Your Spirit, and marked by Your peace. Let every detail align with Your perfect will, and let Your name be praised through it all.
Finally, Father, we thank You for the gift of this child. We thank You for the miracle of life and for the privilege of partnering with You in prayer. May this season be one of deep encounter with Your presence, where our sister’s faith is strengthened, and her testimony of Your goodness grows. We ask all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
We will continue to lift you up in prayer, trusting that the Lord will faithfully carry you through this time. Keep your eyes fixed on Him, and remember that He who began a good work in you will be faithful to complete it (Philippians 1:6, WEB). If you have any specific concerns or updates, please share them with us so we can pray more intentionally. May the Lord bless you and keep you; may He make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you; may He lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace (Numbers 6:24-26, WEB).
