Pregnancy message

Hello everyone... I'm a born again Christian and was wondering if anyone could offer some help...
I am 13 weeks pregnant to my second child and have had a pretty rocky start. We have had a threatened miscarriage and been in and out of hospital with pain and spotting. I have just had my 12 week scan and they said baby seems happy and healthy and they don't have any further concerns. This is the thing - on 4th August I woke up in the early hours of the morning to the words 'Your baby will be born in 2 weeks' - clear as anything. This would mean a miscarriage. I'm really confused as I don't know if this is a message from the Lord, something I've hallucinated as I was waking up, or something satan is trying to plant in my mind to deceive and make me anxious. I've prayed for clarity but I am still confused and the end of the 2 weeks will be this weekend. Something which puzzles me is how specific the message is if it was something i've half dreamt as i've been waking up. If this is a message from the Lord I don't want to 'ignore' Him in my confusion incase he has given me this message so I can ask brothers and sisters to pray and intercede.
In March I had a very similar experience where I awoke in the early hours to the very clear words 'God is coming'.
I will be praying for protection over baby anyway, but any advice would be appreciated.
Love and Blessings

Greetings, sister, and welcome to Christian Forums. :)

I wouldn't worry about direct voices. That's rarely the Lord's method. He usually uses dreams instead and for a variety of reasons, one being that it takes seeking Him and discernment to understand their meaning, where as demons can just speak things into the ear that do not take the Holy Spirit's help to accurately understand.

Trust in your relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ, and dedicate yourself all the more to praying to Him and to reading His word. He will guide you and protect you, and protect your baby as well. As scripture says. "He has not given us a Spirit of fear, but One of Love, and Power, and of a sound mind."

Blessings in Christ! And thanks for joining :)

What is God's nature, chelle? Does He desire to see us fearful/anxious?

2 Timothy 1:7
7 for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.

Galatians 5:22-24
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace...

Romans 14:17
17 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.


Isaiah 26:3-4
3 You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you.
4 Trust in the LORD forever, for the LORD GOD is an everlasting rock.


In light of these things, from where do you think your fearful thoughts and anxiety are originating? Not in God, right?

chelle, I will add to this Matthew 6:25-34 (NKJV).

“Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? “So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble."
 
Hi chelle and welcome to CF :wave2

Not sure where the voice came from as God knows at 13 weeks a baby would not survive outside the womb. IMO since you have much anxiety over the the spotting and trips to the hospital with the doctor saying your baby is fine, this voice may just be a part of your worrying as thoughts go through your head even while trying to sleep. Try not to worry about this and put your faith and trust in God that you will deliver a healthy happy baby. Don't give place to the devil giving you these thoughts and know that it is God who formed your baby in your womb and is wonderfully made in the image of God. I found this beautiful prayer for you and stand in agreement.

I bring this little baby that is forming within me to you Lord and pray that you would be with me every step of the way. I ask that your guiding hand of protection would be over and around and within this little life and may he or she grow and develop without any problems or complications, in your name Jesus amen :pray
