Gen3:16,Unto the woman He said,i will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception,in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children,
Rev12:2,5.And she being with a child cried,travailing in birth and pained to delivered((v5)And She brought forth a Son,a MAN-CHILD,who is to shepherd all nation with an iron rod, The Woman in Gensis3 typifies the woman in revelations12,which is the Church.that is the condition of the Church in these present age.the Church which God desires must have a perfect relationship with Christ.but,since the Church have not attained to God's full purpose and satisfaction,He will chose a group of overcomers who will attain His purpose and fullfill His demand.
This is the principle of the MAN-CHILD.been brought forth in travail.
In the old testament God chose the people of israel to be a Kingdom of priest, that is the whole nation was to serve Him and be His priest.Exod4:22-23,Exod13.however,not all the people became priests,because they worshipped an idol.therefore,Moses charged the people of israel,saying"who is on the Lord's side let him come unto me;Exod32:26.And all the Sons of Levin gathered themselves together unto Moses.then Moses said to them,"thus saith the Lord God of Israel put every man his sword by his side and go in And out from gate to gate throughout the camp and slay every man his brother,his neighbours and they did according to the word of Moses.Exod32:28,they were willing to serve God above all there human affection,so God chose them to be His priests.the whole Israelites approaches God through the Levies,,what the Children of Israel should have offered unto God,the Children of Levin offered for them,the service of the Levites before God was counted as the service of the whole nation of Israel.only the Children of levi are priest but,the whole nation of Israel benefited from their priesthood.
In the same manner,the work of the MAN-CHILD is for the whole Church.the work belongs to the MAN-CHILD but the Church receives the blessing of the work.the business is theirs but their accomplishments bring glory to the whole Church.
The reason for their coming forth is to fullfill God's Enternal purpose.we have to admit that the Church have failed,therefore,God is calling forth the MAN-CHILD to stand for the Church and fullfill His Enternal purpose.
May God have mercy on these generation and bring forth a MAN-CHILD,
May they be as selfless as Paul the apostle.
May they reject ecclesiastical favours.
May they say nothing that will draw men to himself but,only that which will move men to God.
May they unstop the ears of millions who are deaf.
May they cry with a voice these century have not heard because they have seen a vision no man in these century have seen.
FATHER,LORD JESUS send us a MAN-CHILD to lead us from the wilderness of crass materialism,where enlightened men,totally blind Spiritually are leading us to an ever nearing destruction.
LORD have mercy on us.

amen!!!

The man child also make reference to the tribulation saints of israel

@Docjay487,God is merciful.He will definitely grant us more Grace in these age.
@joagbeye,benjamin(gen35:17)samuel(1sam1:16) was brought forth out of travail,the principle is also seen when only a minority led by Ezra,Nehemiah,Zerubbabel and Joshua, came back to build the temple and the city of Jerusalem.what they did was reckoned as the recovery and returning of the whole nation.

Are you a "Man-Child"?
Creation is in dire need of your service!
Romans8:18-23.Romans8:18For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that is to be revealed to us. 19For the anxious longing of the creation waits eagerly for the revealing of the sons of God. 20For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it, in hope 21that the creation itself also will be set free from its slavery to corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God. 22For we know that the whole creation groans and suffers the pains of childbirth together until now. 23And not only this, but also we ourselves, having the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our body.
