Just Breathe! It’s Birthing Season. – A Word by Dionne White

“For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.” Romans 8:19

I was in a conversation with a friend recently when the word of the Lord came to me.

I said, “I feel as if all of creation is holding its breath and waiting to exhale!” We both took a deep breath and exhaled ourselves.

Immediately following that call I went into prayer and that word resonated within me and then I received a vision. I saw the earth and all of creation expanding and contracting….it was breathing. It was like I saw it as a living being and could see breath expanding the very ground we walked on. Then it was contracting, and the ground would sink a bit, the waters would swell, and the trees would sway. I saw creation breathing. I then heard in my spirit the following scripture:

“For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.” Romans 8:19

I continued to pray into this word. The following morning, I awoke early and in the stillness of dawn I heard the Holy Spirit say, “Just breathe. It’s birthing season”.

The vision I had from the day before reappeared before me and then Isaiah 66:9 came to mind.

“Shall I bring to the time of birth, and not cause delivery?” says the LORD. “Shall I who cause delivery shut up the womb?” says your God.

The word of the Lord came to me again as follows.

“Individuals are getting prepared to birth, the nations are getting prepared to birth, the bride of Christ is getting prepared to birth. The Holy Spirit says, ‘Just breathe’. The Holy Spirit and angels will be your coaches to help you successfully birth”.

The Spirit of the Lord then spoke about a woman in labor and how the breathing is a strategy through the birthing process of a child. We are taught and coached by doulas, midwives or what I knew 24 years ago as “Lamaze coaches” to know how to breathe through labor–when to breathe, when to rest and when to push. The breathing particularly is a strategy to help one focus. I believe many are pregnant with promises and need to steward this last “trimester” with divine wisdom. We need to be in step with the Spirit of God so we can carry things to full term. The enemy would love to abort the promises of God now in His people by baiting us into discouragement, disillusion, faint heartedness, offense, apathy, and selfish ambition. Any of these can lead us down a path to miscarry the promises of God. Don’t take the bait!

In regard to breathing, we can take this a step farther that all may understand which incorporates meditation. Christian meditation often can incorporate focused breathing and thought leading by the Holy Spirit. For the Christ follower those thoughts and breaths are to be focused upon the Lord and His word and ways. I believe this is a strategy the Holy Spirit wants us to engage with as we finish 2022 strong and transition in 2023 continuing the year of 5783. We need to learn how to rest and breathe, pacing ourselves through the times that are upon us so we can successfully birth the promises of God. In that promise the revealing of the sons and daughters of God will come. This is why all of creation waits and breathes…it is eagerly waiting for the promises of God to come forth through the revealing of His sons and daughters. There has never been a more time that creation groans for its Creator to be revealed!
