Encoraging Scriptures
I know many women who want to have a baby will be afraid of what they have been hearing and say, "What if my baby is born with a genetic disorder because of my age?" I really want to address this issue from the Word of God. In the first instance we see that Elizabeth and Zachariah had John the Baptist at a great old age, and that child came out perfect. We see that Abraham and Sarah had Isaac at 100 and 91 years, respectively, and he came out a perfect child. God blessed these older couples with perfect children. The Bible says every good and perfect gift comes from God (James 1:17). God will not bless you with the gift of a deformed child if you ask Him for a child. You may say, "Well, Elizabeth and Sarah were different." What He did for one He will do for the other if you can find it in His Word. God is true and faithful and He is merciful and just. Do not be afraid to ask God for what you want. God wants to bless you with a perfect baby who will bring joy and happiness into your life.
