The weekend message for the beloved Children of God - Mothers Honor !

Happy Mother's Day to all the Mothers.
Good morning,
The weekend message for the beloved Children of God - Mothers Honor !
The most important lady in all of our lives, is Mom. Ms. Julia Ward and Ms. Anna Jarvis petitioned for this day in May, to celebrate an honor mothers on Mother’s Day, it was signed by President Thomas Woodrow Wilson (the 28th President of the United States), on May 8, 1914. We celebrate you all everyday, Jesus' Mother Mary, My Mother, Daughters that are Mothers, Your Mother, Grandmother's, Great Grand Mother's, Great-Great Grand Mother's, God-Mother's, Spiritual Mother's, Play Mother's, Step- Mother's, Church Mother's, Adopted Mother's, Mother's to be,and Single Mother's. A mother holds a special place in the hearts of all, for without her none of us could be here. Do you know the story of Mary, the mother of Jesus? “And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost: And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb. A mother is so important to us, God Himself gives respect to her and her place in this world. Jesus Christ died on the Cross to redeem mankind, to save us from our sins because of his love for us. Now, lets look at Jesus and Mary are together again, at the beginning of his ministry in Cana and now at the end of his public ministry at the foot of the Cross. What sorrow must have filled Mary's heart, to see her Son mocked, tortured, and crucified. Jesus rises above the occasion, and his concerns are for the ones that love him. The good son that He is, Jesus is concerned about taking care of his mother. Wow! Jesus looks to John to take care of His Mother. Read the Gospel of John 19:26-27 , "Jesus said to his mother: "Woman, this is your son." Then he said to the disciple: "This is your mother."Let us look at a Godly Mother, Hannah, the mother of Samuel. Hannah prayed and prayed to God to have a child. Because God answered her prayer and gave her a son named Samuel, she gave him back to the Lord. And God was able to use him for His purpose and His will. As believers, we should be giving our children back to God also, for His use, because they are gifts to us. Read Psalm 127:3 says, “Sons are a heritage from the Lord, children a reward from him.” You see, she promised God that she would dedicate her son completely to Him if God would give her conception. The Bible says, “And she vowed a vow, and said, O Lord of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thine handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thine handmaid, but wilt give unto thine handmaid a man child, then I will give him unto the Lord all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head.”Think about the gift of life that a mother gives to us, from God. The word of God, commands mothers to teach and train your children the ways of the Lord. If we teach our children about God’s word, even if they go astray, they will come back to God . The duty of parents, for in Ephesians 6:1-4 says, Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.“Fathers, (and Mothers) do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.” Very powerful words, by following this scripture, our children will never be lost. Some people may not like this, it is the word of God, not me. Read Hosea 4:6, My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. Mothers teach your children the ways of the Lord , first things first. Teach them to seek after Jesus Christ first, before anything else. Our lives are in his hand, not about the comforts of this life on earth, but leave it to God to make it bitter or sweet as he pleases. Read Matthew 6:33, But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. We have to be Christ-like to teach our children to be like Christ, we have to seek Him also. In Deuteronomy 6:5-9 says, “Love the Lord your God with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Heavenly Father, we come before you seeking your face. We seek you first for your divine direction, and your will. For it is written in Proverbs 3: 1-6,My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments: For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee. Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart: So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man. Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !
