1. PAUL, AN apostle (special messenger) of Christ Jesus by the will of God, according to the promise of life that is in Christ Jesus, 2. To Timothy, [my] beloved child: Grace (favor and spiritual blessing), mercy, and [heart] peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord! 3. I thank God Whom I worship with a pure conscience, in the spirit of my fathers, when without ceasing I remember you night and day in my prayers, 4. And when, as I recall your tears, I yearn to see you so that I may be filled with joy. 5. I am calling up memories of your sincere and unqualified faith (the leaning of your entire personality on God in Christ in absolute trust and confidence in His power, wisdom, and goodness), [a faith] that first lived permanently in [the heart of] your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice and now, I am [fully] persuaded, [dwells] in you also. 6. That is why I would remind you to stir up (rekindle the embers of, fan the flame of, and keep burning) the [gracious] gift of God, [the inner fire] that is in you by means of the laying on of my hands [with those of the elders at your ordination]. 7. For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (of cowardice, of craven and cringing and fawning fear), but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control. 2 Tim 1:1-7 Amp
A woman who gives birth to a child becomes a giver by nature. It is the design our Yahshua created within them long ago. And so, mothers, naturally offer their children many important things in life. But the most important thing a godly mother can give her children is the motivation to Trust In and Rely Upon God.
Her relationship with God, is the most important thing she can give to her children. (Deut. 6:1-3, 5-7).
If she wants her children to survive the Godless society in which we live, she has got to instill in them biblical principles. How to "Obey God, and leave all the consequences to Him is very important. Teaching children the truth, will help them to recognize lies.
Even if children don't understand the first time, she must be persistent to keep teaching, disciplining, and showing them what it means to Trust In and Rely Upon Him.
During hard times, such as we have today, she can use adversity as an opportunity to demonstrate her Love for God. Praying together through difficulties is the best way to demonstrate how to live out their walk with God.
Children must see her consistently live out her faith, or they will think she is just another hypocrite. Like in the lives of Eve and Cain, Rebekah and Jacob, and Jochebed and Moses, children often follow in their parents' footsteps.
Godly moms must be involved in their children's' daily lives by doing the things they want them to do 'with them' instead of just sending them.
Children need to hear you pray for them, calling out their names before God, and making specific requests for them. Nothing you do for your children is more powerful than prayer. Again, be sure to pray "with" them.
Moms are responsible for passing on their faith to the next generation. The must prepare ahead of time to do things like reading the Bible together as a family and talk about spiritual truths.
Moms, and Dads, it's your responsibility to raise godly children, and REMEMBER, you are not alone. YOUR Father sends the Holy Spirit to enable, strengthen, and encourage us to bring up Godly children. Amen?
HAPPY MOTHERS DAY. I Love You.
