BARREN WOMEN IN THE BIBLE

There are women in the Bible 
who were barren and couldn't 
have children.  A problem like 
this could mar the  reputation
of a woman in Biblical times.
The main role of  the woman
was to bare and raise children
in Biblical times.In Bible study,
we talked  about two women
who were barren. Their names
were Sarah and Hannah.

This week I'll show daily scriptures
which tell about barren women in
the Bible.  These women learned 
that faith and patience were the
keys to receiving their blessings.
SCRIPTURES FOR FRIDAY

LUKE  23:26-29


26 Now as they led Him away, they laid hold 
of a certain man, Simon a Cyrenian, who 
was coming from the country, and on him 
they laid the cross that he might bear it 
after Jesus
27 And a great multitude of the people 
followed Him, and women who also 
mourned and lamented Him.  

28 But Jesus, turning to them, said, “Daughters
of Jerusalem, do not weep for Me, but weep for 
your selves and for your children.  

29 For indeed the days are coming in which they
will say,  ‘Blessed are the barren, wombs that 
never bore, and breasts which never nursed!’

DEPICTION OF JONAH RUNNING AWAY FROM THE LORD I was doing Bible study one night and it became clear to me that, Noah, Moses, Jonah, Deborah, Jael, Lydia, Seller of Purple, Rehab, The Twelve Disciples, and Paul were all CALLED by God. The Lord may require  some people to carry out a special task.There will be others that may be required to minister His Word and  travel around the world as a missionary.      This week I'll share scriptures about different men  and women that were called by the Lord. Some of these people were rebellious and did not want to answer His call.  All eventually did the Lord's will. Today, I will share scriptures which discuss that the Lord CALLED a man named Jonah.  He did not want to answer the Lord's call and ran away.  There were consequences to Jonah's actions. The Lord's will did prevail. He did go to Nineveh. JONAH 1: 1-4, 6-9, 12, 15-17 1  Now the word of the Lord came to Jonah the

DEPICTION OF RAHAB OF JERICHO I was doing Bible study one night and it became clear to me that, Noah, Moses, Jonah, Deborah, Jael, Lydia, Seller of Purple, Rehab, The Twelve Disciples, and Paul were all CALLED by God. The Lord may require  some people to carry out a special task.There will be others that may be required to minister His Word and  travel around the world as a missionary.   This week I'll share scriptures about different men  and women that were called by the Lord. Some of these people were rebellious and did not want to answer His call.  All eventually did the Lord's will. Today, I'll share scriptures which show how  a prostitute named  Rahab was used to help  Joshua's spies. Joshua, son of Nun, became  the ruler for the Israelites after Moses died. The Bible also tells us that the Lord is "not a respecter of persons"and accepts all who will respect him. It can be His will to use a harlot (prostitute)

DEPICTION OF ADAM & EVE WITH THEIR CHILDREN I say thank you to PBS for featuring TV shows  on researching your family tree by Heny Louis Gates, Jr.  The show was called, "Finding Your Roots". I enjoyed this show and and eventually became very good at family tree research. Genealogy was important during Bible days and the Bible book of Genesis gives us several family trees. Today I am showing Adam and Eve’s family tree. GENESIS 2: 18, 22-24 18  And the Lord God said, “ It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him. 22  Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man. 23  And Adam said: “This is now bone of my bones And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man.” 24  Therefore a man shall leave h
