Mothers

I greet you in Jesus precious name! It is Monday morning, the 2nd of November, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

We start in Genesis 18:14. God asks Sarah:

”Is anything too hard for the Lord? “

Oh, I want to speak to mothers, potential mothers. I want to talk especially to ladies today who cannot have a baby. That’s what God has laid on my heart. Matthew 7:7:

“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.“

Early this morning, while I was praying, I remembered Hannah, that godly woman, couldn’t have a child. She went to the temple, she was weeping, she was praying under her breath, just her lips were moving. Eli, the priest thought she was drunk. No, no. She was wailing because she couldn’t have a baby, but God gave Hannah the most beautiful child. His name was Samuel. He was one of the only prophets who never faulted to the end of his life.

What about Sarah, ninety years old, and God asked her a question, ”Is there anything too hard for me?” What about Elizabeth, well advanced in age? She gave birth to a man who made the roads straight for Jesus Christ, John the Baptist. What about Samson? Probably the strongest man in the Old Testament physically, we don’t even know what his mother’s name was. His father’s name was Manoah. God gave them a child.

I want to say to you today, and I’m saying, “Mother”. You say, ”But Angus, I don’t have a child.” “But you want a child.” “Yes, I desperately do.” Well I’m calling you “Mother” by faith. What is required is persistence. Yes, asking, seeking, knocking. Now I want to pray a simple prayer for you and I want to pray this prayer after me:

Dear Lord Jesus,

Today I am desperate for a baby. Lord, I have been waiting for so long. Today, by faith, I receive that child which is coming and Lord, I promise, I promise to dedicate that child to You, to bring that child up in the fear of God and I thank You Lord, for the soon-coming baby.

In Jesus name. Amen.

I want you to cling on to this promise of God and the day that you conceive, please let us know.

God bless you and have a wonderful day.
Goodbye.
