I'm Expecting A Blessing

This may sound a bit strange to you
But I’m in a state of pregnancy
It all happened the day that I really got to know Christ
The day I fell in love with Him,
and I finally allowed Him to be intimate with me

I was close enough to Him that I could hear His voice
I was close enough that I could see His face
I was so close, that I could touch the hem of His garment
And close enough to feel His warm embrace

It was then, that He planted His seed in my spirit,
Deep inside of my empty soul
He planted His word inside of my heart,
And He continues to water it, to make it grow

Soon this seed will be fully developed
Then I will bring forth His offspring
Until that time comes, I must continue to be patient, fast, and pray
Because while I am yet waiting on the spirit to deliver this baby
He still has work to do in my flesh, to deliver me

In the meanwhile, the enemy is still trying to abort my child
Reminding me of miscarried promises that were in store for me
Now he wants me to just walk away and cancel the birthday of my blessings
But he’s forgetting the fact that now I’m filled with God’s spirit
And I’m not the same person that I used to be

He uses situations to try and hold me down. He’ll even use others to talk about me
He uses the very ones that I love the most, to cause me the most pain and grief
But all things work together for the good of those who love God
So all he’s really doing, is adding to my blessing, by feeding my baby for me

Now I can feel the contractions starting, and I even feel the labor pangs
I feel like going on, despite the tests and trials, because I am whole, in Jesus’ name
It’s almost time for me to push; now it’s time for me to deliver this blessing
So if you hear me shouting Hallelujah!!! I’m just pushing, and pressing my way
Giving thanks to God above, for being the father of my baby
