Psalm 86:16 O turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength unto thy servant, and save the son of thine handmaid.

All who receive Christ have been given power to become Sons of God. i.e. we can call him Abba Father. But who is the handmaid? i.e. who is our mother?

Galatians 4:26 But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is *the mother of us all.*

Jerusalem (our mother) refers to the collective people of God. In the spirit (as in the natural) a child is born when the word of God (seed) is in us. We can't minister life (birth a child) except the seed (word of God) is in us.

If you (man or woman) wish to see those around you saved, if God is to use you to birth them, the word must be in you. You can't minister (birth) life if the seed of it (Christ) isn't in you. Selah.
