Psalm 139:15–16: My frame was not hidden from You, when I was made in secret, and skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them.
Experiencing Jesus in the Psalms
Before the body was formed David says he was a person. He was a person as he was being formed in the womb. Even before the members of his body were formed, he was a person. The personhood is declared to take place at the very moment of conception. This is very important in our day because of the question of abortion. While the body was being formed, David said he was a person, a human being. God had the blueprint of his members before they came into existence. The person was there. The Bible has the answer to all the problems of life if we consider all of it, and it does not always give the popular interpretation. It is well to get God’s viewpoint. 1
Living the Transformed Life
For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. Psalm 139:13
- Pray that the Supreme Court of the USA, and all 50 state governments, would recognize these unborn babies as human beings needing legal protection.
- Pray that every abortion provider would be required to have every client have an ultra sound upon their first visit.
- Pray that people would read and believe the Word of God about unborn children.
The One who made you, knew you before He made you.
Praise and Prayer
Thank You, Father, for making a way to reach the world with Your word. Dear Jesus, please teach me how to live more boldly for You.
