Infertility, Suffering, and Hagar

[@olwethudlamini8960]

I love how "30 minutes with the Perry's" is steadily becoming "1 hour with the Perry's" 😂❤

[@elle1731]

Amen & Amen. I just starting watching their teachings @ a month ago and they joyfully fill up my days as I work from home at this time (pray for me Saints I don’t want to return to anyone’s office) . I’ve stopped w/ the fashion videos/hauls and Snowfall (b/c it’s over - I’m not that delivered from the wratched TV sometimes)😂. God Is So Good and this content is blessing me.

[@klinadee]

And it’s me thinking for the last couple of months that they had rebranded to “With the Perrys” bc there is no more 30mins 😂.. I dig it either way.

[@rosemontee2137]

Right! 😂 gone head make it an hour!

[@WillieFordham]

This is offtopic but I hope one day we can see a conversation between Stephanie Ike and Jackie about the spiritual realm especially dreams since both of them are dreamers.

“Let the text, help you understand the text.”- JHP. The way y’all just unpacked this word together. Whew!!!! Did y’all catch how they also spoke about being in bed praying and discussing the text? This kind of love and honor for each other, plus breaking down the word? It’s remarkable. God Bless y’all. PS: the videographer did that with the tight shots. ❤

[@deewhite5505]

Right!?!?!?!?!

[@avalewis8078]

Jackie is like C.S. Lewis for me.. their messages are so simply said but so profound that it sits with you for days. Also, I feel like I need a thesaurus and a dictionary nearby. 😅

[@thebravebird]

Beautifully said. Their brilliance is definitely on par with C. S. Lewis!

[@patienceshamaki9230]

I honestly struggle with this Hagar story, really difficult for me. However, when I read through Genesis the phrase the Lord who sees me stood out clearly. He sees me, He sees everything and He is still Sovereign.

[@niange5404]

why

[@azukaegosaliuokeola286]

Me too! I actually use that phrase in deep prayer calling my God the God Who sees me no matter how anyone sees me or misunderstands me.

[@eliahefner8693]

This really blessed me. I think we also skip over the fact that Hagar was pregnant when she left to make this incredibly long journey back to Egypt. I believe it would have been more dangerous for Hagar to go to Egypt prematurely than to go back and submit, have the baby, etc. God did consider her safety and the safety of the baby.

[@bkkid100234]

This analysis is soooo thorough!! Jackie is so inspiring in breaking down biblical texts. It's like taking critical theory of art in university but for the bible instead. Thank you God for speaking through her. ❤

[@shaylacrawfordmccoy7540]

Yes, the breakdown is so serious!!

[@officialraemusic]

"That's the beautiful picture of the gospel: she [Hagar] wasn't looking for God, but God was looking for her." *insert tear drops* That is heart-melting and Truth!

[@throughfaithandgrace2970]

Jackie and Preston…I just want you guys to know how much of an encouragement you are on this platform. All glory goes to him. You guys are rockin it. God bless you and your most precious family ❤ love y’all so much!!!!

[@amieshawilliams]

I learned something tonight that I had never heard. The first thing is the difference between a prescriptive context versus a descriptive context. The second is the tendency to want to glean something new and fresh within a scripture that we may read far more into it than what’s actually being said. This was a fantastic, thought-provoking message.

[@nataliegillis494]

This was so so good! Can’t believe this video was shot in May. Just goes to show you that God’s word is so refreshing then, now, and tomorrow! God’s word is being taught in this video. Praise God for Preston and Jackie!!!

[@daniiej7266]

“She doesn’t have anymore patience. You don’t have any more patience to wait on the timing of the Lord” ooooo this hit me hard!!!

[@romanstwelveonentwo]

Real hard 😢

[@zo3n1kos]

I always thought I would be married and have children. I believe I got a promise from the Lord at 25ish for a husband. I waited,but got in a sinful relationship in my late 30s. I got pregnant but had a miscarriage. God has given me 3 names beforehand. He told me after one of the names was the baby I lost. I am now 51 going through perimenapause and not married yet. I got out of that relationship over 10nyrs ago and still waiting and believing. And yes the feeling of not being good enough is something I struggle with.

[@N_talltrees]

❤. Praying God encourages you.

[@jeaninerichardson7179]

The devil is a LIAR. The LORD loves us unconditionally beyond our extremely finite minds & comprehension, He's all about you. One thing that we must humbly accept is that when we read how 🤔 the LORD says we're to love the LORD with all our hearts, minds, strength and to love our neighbors as we love ourselves. I can even say that regardless of how many times I've read this scripture... something in me glossed over the part about loving myself. Many times many of our brothers & sisters in Christ JESUS do the same almost like mechanically robotics. It's as if we're not including ourselves in a posture of recognizing that when the WORD specifically tells us to "Touch not My anointed & do my prophets no harm"... And that His Prophets & His Anointed includes *(us) we're included on the ticket & package. So 🤷 this means that we're Offending Him by our self-hatred, the ugly things that we say to & towards ourselves the very creation which He created 🤔 for His Glory = *(us)unfortunately 💔 we're numbered among this group. Yeah, it can be painful 😢 being confronted by how we truly feels about ourselves really. The LORD is the SPIRIT of TRUTH, we're 🙌 to worship Him in Spirit & TRUTH, He desires Truth in our inward parts. The Truth about how 🤔 we feel about ourselves. We can't continue running from this, its fluid and its inevitably going to manifest itself as the tell-tale that it is. I'm being honest here because I've dealt with this for many many years. But the LORD is the Redeemer of time because He's eternal, He created time for our benefit. Someone said something so impacting like splashing bleach on my thought processes that is such an eye opener because the LORD can & most definitely will blow our minds 🤯 with the lavished love that He submerges us in Himself. Anywho, someone spoke that when we practice unforgiveness towards ourselves and tormenting ourselves unknowingly its as if we're inflicting ourselves as if the Precious Sinless Pure Blood of JESUS CHRIST wasn't effective nor efficient in His Perfect Sacrificing of Himself... Seriously elucidate on this point... see we really need to just roll this over because this is so deeply profound what our negative actions 🎬 against ourselves imply that 💯% of what Christ JESUS willingly did for all of humanity, past present & future was somewhat lacking in deficiency to save us. WOW 👏 LORD again I REPENT because you already gave Your Very Best Gift 🎁 JESUS CHRIST 🙌 and He rose from the dead... He is the RESURRECTION He neatly folded up those grave clothes and we need to abandon ours, and follow You LORD, GLORY to GOD. Hallelujah 🙌

[@jide_yeni]

This was such a powerful episode on so many levels. It was like a bible class with lots of modern story-like context. As a man, I never would have even thought about how Sarai was feeling due to her inability to bear a child. This lesson went home many levels. Thanks the Perrys!

[@nochso6835]

OK, but speak only for yourself, brother.

[@kingdomaviana]

Please do more of these Bible studies. I enjoyed this!❤

[@BrittanyJheanelle]

One of the BEST studies from you guys thus far. God is WAY TOO good to us.

[@a.i.f.k.2273]

Another gem!!! That breaking down of the repetitive behaviour of Sarai and Abram and their couple dynamic…whewwww. I can only say thank you both for sharing ❤🙌🏻🙏

[@Primseygirl101]

I am on my knees sobbing and I’m only 27 minutes in. Thank you Jesus. This is exactly what I needed to hear tonight. Thank you lord thank you for giving me the ears to hear and eyes to see and helping me remember !

[@aprilsmith8339]

I feel like Sara a lot. I have been waiting on God’s promises for having children since I lost 😢my two 2️⃣ with my first husband. Now we are almost 20 years later and it hasn’t happened 😢. I am at the place God is working my faith. Listening 👂 to ya’ll is encouraging me to do what I God has for me and die for myself so His Glory can shine.

[@hiphoppreacher4real]

[@AseaMae]

So crazy that Abram’s lack of trust in God to protect him and his wife opened the door for the very temptation Sarai faced in waiting on God. Not only did it provide the strategy, but also it provided Hagar because she was a gift that resulted from Abram’s lack of trust. Wow wow wow. I’ve never seen that revelation before today. So good.

[@knightwoman6595]

This is amazing. This is my first time since accepting Jesus actually reading the whole Bible. I just finished genesis and I was so confused on the WHY, but these discussions are so powerful and really put things into perspective

[@laurynricho1539]

so i’ve been trying to read the bible, i’m making my way through exodus but as you were going through Hagars story, it felt different actually being able to understand the connections you were making because i had already read and somewhat studied the text myself.. it just makes me exited to keep reading and seeing how the text also explains the text. feeling a different kind of excitement, it’s like fire under my feet.

[@refiloe650]

I love how she taught about Hannah. I reference her time and again when I share with people about prayer

[@karenwallaceadventures3146]

Excellent teaching 👏🏽 "His Only Son" tells this Bible story beautifully ✨️

[@SammyFavoured]

It’s especially harder when your a dreamer i has a dream a woman in church who been barren 12 years pushing 45 whose Married will have twins! I haven’t seen the manifestation but I approach and encouraged her and honestly I even told her maybe God wants her to be open for adoption as well even I was discouraged their still been no baby’! However she birthed a ministry that’s very successful so it could also be that I saw a baby ministry being birthed maybe my interpretation was off 😊

[@Jasmyne444]

I love how Jackie has such a profound love and curiosity for the Word ❤

[@jocobyjunious3518]

Also Preston’s point about how God found Hagar even when she wasn’t looking for him brought tears to my eyes. It just struck me. God finds all of us and has seen all of us even when we weren’t looking for him and CHOSE to reveal himself to us. Thank you God for your self-disclosure.

Love this video so much. Woman at the well is in John 4. This is so deep and great for any woman who has felt that she was not given dignity by one or more people. God sees each person, male or female, even when people sometimes don't.

Growing up, my mom was the twice a year Christian. Christmas and Easter... As an adult I have gone to church on my own here and there. I've Always felt God near even I shouldn't have. As a mom I Iove taking my kids. I love my church family. It's so important to share the lord with the kids.. it helps my kids have a different perspective of life. It helps them decide and choose better for themselves. Is there temptation, most definitely! And knowing God has them gives them strength and integrity.

[@lifewiththeodums]

36:56 only about halfway through but this is so applicable to so many things. How many times does God promise something and in our waiting we get irritated so we try to develop a new strategy to obtain the promise. The whole time the promise is in God’s hand and he’ll release it in his perfect timing but in our strategizing we’re trying to snatch in from his hands and in doing so cause even more harm than if we’d just waited.
