Pregnancy is one of the best things that can ever happen to a woman. Having a life growing inside of you is one of the wondrous works of God.
Once you discover you are pregnant, your mind immediately goes to keeping your baby safe. You start reading about things you can do and shouldn’t do whiles expecting. You get books and search online to find out more about how your baby is forming and the various changes that your body is going through and then you go to see your doctor to make sure that all is well with you and your growing baby. But that is not all.
Pregnancy is a long journey and not an easy one as such, this is why you need to rely on God to power you through your whole journey. We’ll take a look at some important prayer points for pregnant women.

Pray against pregnancy complications and birth defects
A 280-day pregnancy journey is not an easy one. Each day comes with its own incidence, some days will be hard and others fun – but it will all be worth it. You have to pray to God that no matter what each day brings in your pregnancy, you and your baby will be alright. Pray against any pregnancy complications.
Also, pray against any form of birth defect. God created man in his own image with all our body parts because each part has its own work. So pray to God that just as he intended for man to look like, your baby is formed without any form of birth defects and deformities. Pray to God to help you avoid anything that can be harmful to the formation of your child.

Father Lord, I thank you for this baby inside of me. I pray that you will watch over this baby and it’s development. I pray against any form of birth defect or deformity for this child. Your word says in Ephesians 4:16 that “from you, the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work”.
Father, standing on your words, I pray that my baby’s whole body be fully formed and knit together. Let each part of the body grow and work effectively. Let this baby be formed in your image, Father. Bless my womb with all the nutrition and nourishment that this baby needs to develop well.
I pray that my baby develops a healthy and intelligent brain. I pray that my baby’s heart be fully formed and full of love in Jesus’ name.
