Job 33:4 The Spirit of God has made me the breath of the Almighty gives me life'

1
Job 334 The Spirit of God has made me the
breath of the Almighty gives me life. 20 days
after conception the heart of a infant is
forming, eyes are developed, and the foundations
of the brain, spinal cord and nervous system are
being laid. The heart begins beating.
2
Isaiah 4424 "This is what the LORD says-- your
Redeemer, who formed you in the womb I am the
LORD, who has made all things, who alone
stretched out the heavens, who spread out the
earth by myself. 45 days after conception the
skeleton and teeth are formed. Brain waves can be
recorded that coordinate the movement of muscles.

3
Psalm 13913, 14 For you created my inmost
being you knit me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and
wonderfully made your works are wonderful, I
know that full well. By 10 weeks the baby is
sensitive to touch and will be making facial
expressions and sucking its thumb.

Jeremiah 15 "Before I formed you in the womb I
knew you, before you were born I set you apart I
appointed you as a prophet to the
nations." At 4 months the child can grasp
with its hands, swim, and turn somersaults in the
womb.
5
Ephesians 210 For we are God's workmanship,
created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which
God prepared in advance for us to do. By 6
months fine hair grows on eyebrows and head. The
baby weighs about 1-12 pounds and is 9 long.
Babies born at this age can survive outside the
womb.
