When thinking of divinity in the womb we all can think of Mother Mary, Jesus mother. For Jesus was divinity in her womb. But I do find myself having to go back in time before Mother Mary. God to me was on a trial run to bring forth divinity through the womb of a woman. Sarah Abraham wife was the first, Samson mother… God started out with women who couldn’t conceive naturally with their husband, like John the Baptist mother Elizabeth then to the empty womb of a virgin who has never been with a man.
Elizabeth was six months pregnant when Mother Mary came to visit her and her baby leaped in her womb and she was filled with the Holy Spirit, Luke 1:36-41. And no, not as speculated by the theologians that Elizabeth baby was no longer living and the power Mother Mary was carrying brought the baby back to life. No where in the Bible can if be found that Elizabeth baby was not going to be born. The angel told Mary about her cousin Elizabeth pregnancy but never once mention it was going to die. Neither anywhere in the Bible it was found that Elizabeth was a prophetess, or her husband a prophet. Her husband Zechariah belonged to the priestly division was a priest and she a descendent. But the scriptures did mention in Luke 1:15 the baby will be filled with the Holy Spirit even before he was born.
They called John the Baptist a priest and and priest he was indeed to man, but he truly was the Lord prophet. Matthew 11:7-15 Jesus spoke about John, but let’s not forget these words spoken by Jesus, “What went you out in the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind? But what went you out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold they that wear soft clothing are in kings’ houses. But what went you out for to see? A prophet? Yes, I say unto you, and more than a prophet. For this is he, of whom it is written, “behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee. “verily I say unto you, among them that are born of women there has not risen a greater than John the Baptist…”
Elizabeth had the greatest of prophet within her womb that overshadow her entire being, causing her to be filled with the Holy Spirit and to prophesied. The power of this divine baby, lite her up on fire with the Holy Spirit. He’s reason Mary was lead by the spirit to visit her. The angel Gabriel never told Mary to go to her cousin. Elizabeth remained in seclusion until Mary visited and her husband was silenced until the baby was born to give him his name. So it seemed like no one knew for sure of her pregnancy. Maybe Mary needed confirmation of what just happened with her encountering the angel and to bare witness to what was said about her cousin Elizabeth is the truth as unto what was said about her. Elizabeth was older so Mary may have needed her advice also on what to do about her now situation with Joseph and their engagement. Maybe she needed support, comfort because of being confused and even fearful on how to handle her blessing from the Lord. Elizabeth is now filled with such wisdom, knowledge and understanding as one who was ashamed for so long but now God has covered that shame in her old age and now Mary herself is going to probably walk in that shame if Joseph, family, friends even to acquaintances turns away from her.
Mary had obviously proven herself to be very faithful to God. She seemed very wise beyond her years as she’d spoken and questioned the angel and then said, “I am the Lord’s servant, do to me according to your word.” Luke 1:38 Unlike her cousin Elizabeth husband, a priest and an older gentleman who had been silent and not able to speak because of his unbelief to what was spoken to him by the angel Gabriel, who told him he was going to have a son and call him John, Luke 1:11-20.
Let’s just ponder for a moment on the abilities that fell upon Elizabeth whiles pregnant with John the Baptist. If that had happened to Elizabeth carrying the prophetic Divine Seed. When people try to convince themselves that Mary the mother of Jesus is not important because they truly believe to make it only about Jesus, “the devil is a liar!” Jesus didn’t come to stay, he had to die. Through Mary he came to infiltrate our spirit and flesh to rid us from the burden of sin, “Hallelujah praise Him!” Imagine the wonders Mary must been able to do, the dreams and visions she had, the communications with the Lord, she must of been surrounded by angels for protection and the list goes on endlessly…. Elizabeth and Mary, these two mother was game changer for women and mothers in the church as well as life itself, when we think of it. For this reason we can now understand the importance of the role that women have in life as equals to man, I rather say balance, the Lord has given to both. God truly is the only superior and submission is for them both, to one another. Why? Because Jesus death renewed the old ways. It was because of the woman Eve man had sin, and now because of the woman Mary the burden of sin has been lifted.
To every woman to whom the Lord blesses you with a seed in your womb remember to always read Luke 1:46-55. Take in to consideration that the Lord may have, like Mary, chosen you to carry a Divine Seed for His purpose. And in doing so, you also shall receive a blessing within you that will enable you to do great things. “To see you, will enable others to see the Father, because together you’ll become one!”
