Your Baby will respond to You

Dear friends,
I came to the understanding of a matter I've been thinking about, for a while, this morning (on the day this was written) at the ironing board. Permit me to share it with you.

Seven days after a child has been delivered, a ceremony or feast is thrown to celebrate the child's birth and the christen/naming of the child is done. In that ceremony, the child's names is called out to everyone and from that day onward the child's name changes from BABY to OLUSOLA (for example). Everyone, from that day is expected to call the child by that name. But I noticed something, even though the child's name is for example, OLUSOLA, he will not respond or turn in the direction of the name for how long... guess...

My Research this morning revealed that for at least seven good months, the child will not respond to his name. He will hear the name but not respond if you call him/her. I was alarmed knowing that this morning. In my mind I thought maybe from a month old, a child will respond to his name. Nay! I was proven wrong. It will take at least seven months and in some cases, nine months. The child will give a stare like he was not the one you are calling.

But the mother, the father and everyone won't give up. They will keep calling the child's name and somehow, someday, as the child grows and gather information he will become familiar with the name and eventually respond to it. The child will grow to be able to say the name, spell the name, write the name and defend it. Wow! But for the at least the first seven months of the child's life, he won't respond.

So what's the lesson for you there?

Well, I'm writing this to someone today who has been confessing - Healing, Breakthrough, Marriage, Success, Job, Purpose, Deliverance, Empowerment.
You've been told to keep saying it because you will have what you say (Mark 11:24). You've been told to say it to have it. But it seems time is going. It seems time is no longer on your side. It seems you have reached the dead end. The situation keeps giving you a cold stare. The same way a baby will not respond despite calling his name.

Did you remember my discovery about the baby response to his name and the time it will take him? That's the same thing going on. The situation you are confessing, the things you are speaking to see, the healing you want to see happen... In the realm of the Spirit, they can hear you!
But You will need persistence, as that of a child's parent to keep calling, doing, praying till it comes to fruition.

I encourage you this day, to keep calling it forth and soon enough - Your miracle, Your marriage, the promises of God, the things you've been waiting for, the deep desires of your heart - shall RESPOND TO YOU, SHALL BE A REALITY!!

Believe in your Heart
Pray and keep working fervently and diligently
Keep Saying it
It shall come to pass for you!
It shall respond to you!
They are your Baby... They shall respond to you soon!

Share to Bless a Soul.
