BLESSING FOR A PREGNANCY  

DEAR MOTHER and Father, God desires to grace you and your unborn child with health, strength, and the friendship of the Holy Spirit. God holds you in his gentle loving hands. He will guard you. For no principality or power, throne or dominion exists that can overthrow him. In Jesus the Divine Physician you have placed your trust.

COOPERATE WITH him so that your hopes and dreams may be fulfilled. These are days of grace as you submit yourselves to Christ’s loving ministry each morning and evening.

PRAY FOR your medical doctors and staff to be responsive and alert at all times as this pregnancy unfolds. Help the Mother and Father of this unborn child, O Lord, to make wise and prudent decisions for the sake of life.

YOU HAVE been honored with stewardship over the children God has entrusted to you. He has given you new life and called your unborn child by name. He knows that you are a caring mother and father. Bless your unborn as God blesses all children. Care for your unborn as God cares for all children. Love all children as you love your very own.

OUR HEAVENLY Father knows you are eager to hold this child in your arms. Even now you minister to your baby’s needs. Look forward confidently to this child’s arrival. Do not grow impatient in waiting for the day of birth. God wants your child to be born healthy and fully ready on the day of delivery.

MOTHER AND Father, do not be fearful. God has promised you the peace of Christ which only he can give. Be obedient to God, therefore, by praying often and praising his glorious name always. He will pour his spirit upon you and you will take refreshment in the living waters of his blessings.

DEAR FAMILY, praise and honor God for the blessing of new life, and the miracle of your own lives. May almighty God bless you and keep you in the days ahead. In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. AMEN.
