SAND & STARS
Christianity and Infertility
Many years ago, Caleb and Olivia felt a burden for couples who were experiencing challenges conceiving children. Sadly, this struggle is known by many inside and outside of the Christian faith. Caleb and Olivia realized that they had gathered more than ten couples and began daily prayer for healing and the gift of a child. Today, they have continued this prayer chain with a ministry titled Sand & Stars.
Biblical Teaching
Genesis 1:28
God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”
Genesis 22:17
I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies.
God gave us a command to multiply... He then gave a promise to Abraham that his children would INCREASE. We are that offspring. Being adopted into the family of God, if you are a Christian, you have the right to cling to this promise for God's people.
Prayer Points
Healing of our bodies
(Isaiah 53:5) But He was wounded for our transgressions,
He was bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes we are healed.
Life in Abundance
(John 10:10) The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
Conception
(Genesis 15:5) He took him outside and said, “Look up at the sky and count the stars—if indeed you can count them.” Then he said to him, “So shall your offspring be.”
