  1. We had been praying since our 20 week appointment when we found she was a girl and at this time nobody else knew. One day during worship in church one of our elders came up to us with a word for us. She shared that the Lord had given her several dreams that the baby I was carrying was a girl and that she would be named Elisha
    Meaning God of Salvation, God has saved.

    Elisha is the Spirit-empowered man of God who walks with God, represents God, and shows the way to covenant faithfulness through word and deed. Elisha therefore serves as a preview of knowing God in the new covenant through the presence and power of the Holy Spirit. She will be the embodiment of compassion, setting the tone for a life of love and selflessness.

    We talked about it prayed about it and agreed this was the name God was giving us for our child which was perfect for my husband and I and the journey we’ve had together and with our relationship with
    Jesus. And then Joy just fit perfectly with it. The joy of salvation.
