Prayer Offered with a Desire to Conceive

As I was praying by confessing scriptures and claiming promises of God in my life, God placed a burden in my heart to pray for others before praying for me. He is reminding me of women in my life who are praying for a child at this time. Here I’ve used Jackie Mize’s Supernatural Childbirth Book as a framework for Praying for conception:

Prayer Offered with a Desire to Conceive

Father, we thank You that children are the heritage of the Lord, and the fruit of the womb is His reward. Children are Your idea father; You thought of children, and family and home. You instituted the family in the Garden of Eden. You ordered children; You commanded them when You said to Adam and Eve, “Be faithful and multiply.” You said that the barren womb is never satisfied. Lord, the Word declared that I am wonderfully and fearfully made by You; therefore, I’m perfect and able to conceive and have children. You said that I would be a fruitful vine by the side of our house and our children like olive plants around our table. We are not ashamed but happy because our quiver is full of children.

Thank You, Father, that You designed and fashioned me, to have children, that in the Bible barrenness was the exception, not the rule, not Your will, not normal, something against Your plan and purpose. And in Your goodness and faithfulness, every barren woman in the Bible who was godly and believed Your Word became pregnant; You opened her womb and blessed her, and she gave birth to a precious baby just as I will. You make the barren woman to keep house and to be joyful mother of children.

You said, Father, that because You are the God and we are Your people and have a covenant with You, that You will love us and bless us and multiple us and bless the fruit of my womb and that neither male nor female among Your people would be barren. Sarah was barren and had no child, but when You visited her, she conceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the “set time.” You blessed the womb of Rebekah, Leah, Rachel, Hannah, Ruth, Shunammite Woman, Manoah’s wife who was Samson’s mother, and Elizabeth the mother of John the Baptist. I am claiming my position in this lineage, for I am your daughter and the redeemed one through the covenant of the blood of Christ.

Father, I know we are redeemed from the curse of the Law by Jesus and being barren is under the curse of the Law; therefore, we will receive from Your grace and have children. Father, no plague, no evil shall come nigh our dwelling. We are healed by the stripes of Jesus. Sickness of any kind is taken out of our midst.

Lord, I look at my body and speak with the authority you have given to me. Body, in Jesus’ name, you will come in line and agreement with the Word of God. You will respond to His holy Word. You will function properly and perfectly, the way God intended you to. Every part, every organ of our reproductive system conforms to the Word and plan of God as we come together in pure, marital love. I command in Jesus’ name, “Body, conceive! Be pregnant.” Cooperate with God’s plan: perfect ovulation, release of perfect eggs from the ovaries, through the Fallopian tubes, penetrated and impregnated, fertilized by healthy sperm. Good solid attachment to uterine wall and nourished and protected for nine months (40 weeks) unharmed and unhindered. Grow to a perfect baby— spirit, soul, and body. Your Word says, Father, that none shall cast their young, not be barren among Your people and the number of our days You will fulfill. This pregnancy will be fulfilled. We decree it in Jesus’ name and receive God’s best; we won’t settle for anything less in Jesus’ name.

You said to ask anything of You in Jesus’ name and it would be done; and that if two of us on earth agree as touching anything it would be done. So, we pray and we agree with You and Your Word, Father, that we will conceive and bring forth a healthy, precious baby to Your glory and honor. We pray all this according to Your Word and will. You said, this is the confidence that we have in You, that if we ask anything according to Your will, You hear us; we know we have the petition we desire of You. We have it now. Thank You, Father, in Jesus’ name I pray that is so and done to Your honor and glory. Amen.
