In the Sunday morning message on September 21, 2014, Pastor Dickson addressed the text of Isaiah 66:7-8

Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child. Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.

 

Here are a few of the resources that were mentioned.
