In His Likeness w/ AntTBri

“Now the LORD was gracious to Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did for Sarah what he had promised” (Gen. 21:1 NIV)

Had as in not what you had before but as in what God said beforehand.  Isn’t it something how God speaks of fruitfulness while we are barren?  He talks to us about what will be long before it materializes and manifest.  How blessed we are that the Lord is gracious to us like He was to Sarah. How awesome it is that God will also fulfill his promise of life and love to us as well. Its advantageous to see ourselves as modern day patriarchs of faith.  So while gearing up for the New thing breaking forth remember it is actually the same Word manifesting at the appointed time.  Fulfilment best defines the believing’s
had. Sarah and Abraham had a word and they lived and loved to enjoy the promise together despite or in light of everything and everyone experienced before.

I don’t know what promise you’ve been given nor what nation you’ve been carrying in the womb of wait, believe and trust in my Word.  But I do know the God that remembers your labor of life and love.  The God that redeems time and causes things to line up and work optimum at the precise moment of manifestation.  I know how grace covers life and love and what it is to hold God’s promise when Hagar is flexing and flaunting Ishmael in your face.  What it is to honor God, God’s man and the fruit from his loins while your desire goes unfulfilled.  I know what it is to be categorized as a sister when it will protect Abrams honor.  I also know the increase I will bring to my Abraham, that God will add to him and increase his bounty because of our connection.  Like you I’ve been processed, preserved and prepared to deliver the promise in the culmination of time. Irregardless of what happened before our joining and coming together as one, the covenant will be established with, in and through me…my womb is the incubator for God’s promise to us.

You are not too old and although its been a very long time coming…pleasure will visit life and love again.  This time it is bringing with it the joy of fulfillment, the laughter of it really is possible and the awe of God not only said it but did it just for me. This year what God had said is going to manifest and materialize beautifully not just in the spirit but in the natural.

What he had said was a foreshadowing of the certainty of what will be experienced between us in our now.  It is the guarantee to what now is a life and love encased in grace and a promise fully realized between us.
Because God is faithful, because his heart towards us is constant, consistent and compassionate He forgave my laughing and reasoning while I struggled to accept what HE said. He grew me through those things experienced with Hagar even though she had Ishmael before I gained the strength to conceive Isaac. 

The blessing that will position me as the mother of a number I cannot count or fathom is upon the horizon.  Purpose is preparing to collide with destiny and Isaac will come to be.  I will physically touch and hold what had been said, confirmed and promised years ago. I’ll be the one God uses to solidify he keeps his promises.  He will look at me and be reminded of the love of God toward him.  He’ll feel youth again our love making will be explosive…life changing and everytime we look at Isaac we will laugh.  Yes we still got it, look at what God did with us in our latter years.  Life and love will be new but it will also be what God had said.  See what he had said was his plan, his purpose and his promise from the beginning its just time now for us to receive, relish and release what had been held in tension all this time…God’s Word, God’s Way and God’s  Work is the grace we are experiencing and the promise life and love will be expressing.

Be encouraged Sarah and encourage Abraham along the way.  The promise is coming keep straining toward the future God has for you both.  God’s got this, he has us in the hallow of his hand.  Grace is covering us and promise is strengthening and stretching the birth canal. 

All the passion my heart can express towards you is the overflow of what God had said years ago that is pertinent to life and love today.  Had not He persisted and kept saying the samething over and over…had not we come to a place of acceptance, allowance and acclamation to His will for us…had not we paused,pondered, prayed and praised our way through mistakes, mishaps and mess ups…had not we’ve come this way…had not we hoped against hope it would not have been attributed to us as faith BUT SINCE IT WAS GOD who did indeed say and purpose it we will celebrate our had.  Had not it been for the Lord on Sarah’s  and Abraham’s side, on our side where would life and love be figuratively speaking…without the joy of the promised Isaac.  God’s visiting life and love a new just like he had said and I for one am utterly amazed by it~AntTBri
