Trusting God While Raising A Child Born Premature

Isaiah 53:5New International Version

But he was pierced for our transgressions,
    he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was on him,
    and by his wounds we are healed.

**

In 2021 I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl named Ruth, who was born premature. In the Black culture I don’t think premature birthing is discussed and how time consuming and how much it costs financially. Don’t think that once they get older the sickness is over because it’s not. Actually , as they get older more is discovered and because the medical field is evolving. When ( Ruth) was a baby , it was recommended that (she) have surgery.. However I didn’t feel the peace of God on that and that was when we were living in a house in Oxon Hill , Maryland. Years later as a single mother I am still dealing with the consequences financially of having a (baby that was born sick ) by myself.

In this season I am learning contentment and I am learning to thank God in all circumstances, in all situations, and all events. So I bless the name of the Lord in the midst of this. I thank God that he has provided insurance. I thank God he has provided money. I thank God he has provided more than enough for me to take care of my daughter.

i say this so that you know don’t think you have a premature baby it’s over when they turn one because it’s not.

You’re just getting started. There are unplanned emergency rooms visits, surgeries , doctor’s notes , excused absence from school due to medical reasons , pediatricians, and so much more involved with having baby born premature. My original due date was October 19, 2021 – she was born September 23, 2021.

No , the father ( Ra’keem ) has not been helpful. I have had to deal and handle this all financially myself but God has helped me. Moral of the story when you have a premature baby brace yourself for the reality of :

  • Stomach surgery
  • Autism diagnosis
  • Asthma
  • Speech Therapy

And so much more. But know that even if you are doing it as a single parent the Lord will send people to help you and he will indeed provide.

Sincerely,

How To Prepare When You Are Having Dreams Of Pregnancy

How To Prepare When You Are Having Dreams Of Pregnancy

“One day during the wheat harvest, Reuben found some mandrakes growing in a field and brought them to his mother, Leah. Rachel begged Leah, “Please give me some of your son’s mandrakes.” – Genesis 30:14 NLT

A Joyous Time Of Celebration

          I believe that God designed pregnancy to be a wonderful time and a joyous time of celebration. No matter what stage in life you are in : single , married, or engaged.. Pregnancy is a great time as you prepare to welcome and birth a new life.

          Now, pregnancy is not really complex. How you get pregnant is that the sperm has to fertilize the egg and wala you are pregnant. But what about when you start dreaming of babies and dreaming of pregnancy.. what does that mean?

          Basically, it means that God has already made a decision that you are going to give birth and he has a plan for that child. It means that God does not want you to abort the baby, because he has a plan for the child. Every child that was chosen by God in the Bible, was first prophesied about. Now because we do not have to sacrifice lambs and goats, to get a answer from God – now the prophecy can come to you in a dream that you are indeed about to give birth within the next 2 years and you need to get your life together.

Prepare Now

          If God has already told you ahead of time that you are about to give birth then now is the time, for you to prepare. Now is the time for you to fix your credit score, look for a new apartment that is spacious, look for a new career that provides more money, start researching daycares, do research on local pediatricians, and buy a new car that is spacious for you and the baby. So much can happen in a 12 month time span.. But you have to do your part and be a responsible parent and prepare in the right manner for the baby that God has already told you is going to happen.

          Many times negative doctor’s come with the word that you’ll never have a baby and that is not true at all. You will conceive. There were so many people in the Bible who were told that they would never conceive, and lo and behold 9 months later they were indeed holding a baby.

          If you keep having dreams about you being pregnant ; that does not mean someone else is pregnant and that does not symbolize death. That means that God has a plan for the child that he has chosen you specifically to birth. So mama get ready ! Because baby season is coming and it is coming quickly !

I Am Going To Do What I Wan’t To Do Regardless

Go Back To Being Normal

Proverbs 12:9 New International Version

9 Better to be a nobody and yet have a servant than pretend to be somebody and have no food.

Personal Decisions

          As a black woman, I have been doing a lot of thinking and contemplating. I have had to make some tough decisions that I know would benefit me in the long run. The ultimate goal is to experience success, and success is what I am after. With that being said, I learned that as a black woman I have had to make some choices that benefit me and how I think, and will ultimately put me into a better position.

          The image of a black woman is not welcomed in ministry, and they don’t want to see a black woman with a family and with a husband. It is interesting to watch the narrative of a woman who is not black being pushed as a picture perfect mother, while the black women in ministry claim to be masculine or desiring women or prideful or not wanting to be a mother.

          So I made the decision that I was going to give birth. I don’t really care about ministry, and I don’t care about what people in ministry think. I made the choice not to put my life on hold because people in the church don’t want to see a black woman with a husband and family as a main attraction or event.

As A Image

          I view myself as a content creator that is Christian. Not a influencer and not someone who is actively speaking or preaching because I don’t want to. I don’t want to travel and speak because I don’t want to deal with the stupidity that arise in church due to racial systems and racial organizations. How I feel, if the church only wants white women to speak then let them have that. That has nothing to do with me and I wont argue about it. I wont waste my time trying to MLK anything. I wont waste my time marching and fighting for you to see what I am saying, I am just going to move on.

          So I wrote this for the other black women in ministry. Stop trying to force your idea’s on a sector that does not want you there. Why waste your time? There are so many brown opportunities that will benefit you.. So move on and stop crying.

          Now, as for me I am a image. Not a influencer, not a preacher, and not a speaker. I am a image. I do what I want to do and I am not waiting for anyone to see what I am saying. I pave my own routes and pave my own roads. I don’t care who does not like it I am still going to do what I want to do regardless. So as I recover, just know that I am very aware of the racial biased that occurs in ministry and I understand very well. I told God I am not a cotton-picking prophet, and if people want to see a cotton picking prophet then they have to go get somebody else. Am I conventional? No. Am I going to have more children before marriage? Absolutely I am. Because I don’t care what the church thinks and I am going to do what I want to do. I am not waiting 10 years to marry somebody because I am black and a prophet, but instead I am going to do what I want to do.

          So in the future, when you reference this blog post know that I don’t give a f****. I don’t care what you think. I don’t care what you believe in. I don’t care what you say God is saying, because you’re probably lying on God name anyways like you all always do. I don’t care if you think I am anointed and need to wait for a husband, because I already told God what I am going to do. I don’t think it’s fair that a white woman in ministry can have a husband and go public as a influencer, but as a black woman they want you to have nappy hair claiming to be prideful and saying you can’t have a kid. So I made the decision to rebel against the racial systems in place in ministry, and do what I want to do and I don’t care who does not like it. Yes, I have to stay in church because God has forced me. But other than that, do not be surprised when you see me pregnant as a minister.

Love,

Extended Hours Of Grace

Extended Hours Of Grace

Life has some moments where trials and tribulations arise and it makes it difficult to pray. But you have to remember that right before Jesus Christ was crucified he began to pray in the Garden of Gethsemane. Lately I have had to make some decisions that do not necessarily feel good, but I know that if I suffer now I will be blessed more later in the long run. Suffering does not feel good, but suffering does produce a resurrection.

I need a resurrection. I need to be risen. But I feel like God pressing upon me that I have to stop quitting and running away when things don’t feel good. But instead I have to keep praying and moving forward. I learned that I had to stop letting what jealous people say infiltrate my mind, and I had to learn to ignore the naysayers.

While walking today God began to speak to me about the condemnation of the tongue. So many people said things that were not true about me and they were all wrong. Through Jesus I have been able to rise above it all. You have to know that every tongue that rises against you is already condemned. You will overcome this and rise above it all. Currently I am in the process of getting a divorce from this terrible marriage to Ra’keem. That bad marriage in 2023 taught me a lot about the spirit realm and how the devil can use the wrong spouse to permit something that is not God’s will. But as I am preparing to divorce I can hear a demonic spirit screaming in the spirit realm that it thought what happened to me in 2023 was going to kill me and that things are not going the way that the spirit wanted, and I rebuke the devil in the name of Jesus. I heard in the spirit realm the conversations of people who thought it was over for me in 2023, but it is not. I have only just begun (Isaiah 54:17).

So for some of you people think that it is over for you, and it is not you have only just begun. Jesus Christ was crucified in his beginning and he resurrected in his eternity. You are going to overcome this and everyone that said you would never be anything will watch you arise into purpose, as they sit there dumbfounded. I loose a dumbfounded spirit on your enemies right now. I loose a dumbfounded spirit against your naysayers. I loose a dumbfounded spirit against every tongue that lied on you in Jesus Name.

The Answer Is Yes

          So say you have a phone interview for a company and they tell you that you are hired immediately after the interview. You pass your background check, and now things are finally moving in the direction that you need it to head in. Things are finally getting better. But I want to remind you that The Holy Bible says that to whom much is given much is required.

          Right now you might be in a season, where you wish you were living in something better. Well you have to do things like fixing your credit score, building your resume, and maybe even getting more active and involved in the community to build a good reputation. Sometimes you have to broaden your horizon and expand your influence, to get connected to the right people that will help elevate you into a better season.

          I believe that you are about to hear the word, “Yes” and you are about to hear the word, “YES” a lot. I believe that you are going to start smiling and hearing better words for yourself and that God is going to help you achieve what you desire to achieve, and it shall happen supernaturally.

Ignore The Stupidity

          I know that I am a prophet, and I know that I am a ordained minister. Sometimes people get jealous of me, and I have to ignore them and keep going. I used to have a really bad anger problem, but God is healing me from that issue of anger. You have to learn to ignore people, because they mumble and say things under their breath because they are jealous of you. Do not allow people’s comments to hurt your feelings instead cause it to roll off your back. Move on and know that God is still going to keep advancing you. God does not need someone permission to bless you. God does not care if someone does not want to see you blessed because he is going to bless you anyways. Moral of the story, learn to ignorance and keep going. Do not be foolish, and do not idle away your time worried about what someone else thinks, but instead move on and let God fight your battles.

2 Chronicles 20:15 King James Version

15 “And he said, Hearken ye, all Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and thou king Jehoshaphat, Thus saith the Lord unto you, Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God’s”.
