The Travail Of Sonship Ephesians 1:5 King James Version (KJV) 5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of *children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
Galatians 4:19 (KJV)
19 My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you,
Romans 8:26 (KJV)
26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
Revelation 12 (KJV)
12 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:
2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.
3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.
5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.

2 Peter 1:2-4 (KJV)
2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,
3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
Divine Nature, Separation And Promises
.. Every promise is a seed sown in our hearts, it is a revelation of the provision God has made. It’s first work is separation ‘having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust’.
We can either go to the world and submit to the spirit of this world or we can go to God. The first work of depending on God for the fulfillment of His promises is separation unto Him … …
