Mothers,
Never stop praying for your husbands and children.
The moment a child is born, the mother is also born.
She never existed before.
The woman existed, but the mother, never.
A mother is something absolutely new.
Mothers have an unfair advantage with the Lord.
The entire town was present.
He observed the pastors and apostles weeping.
He observed the elders weeping.
He observed the fathers weeping.
He observed the children weeping.
He observed the sadness on people's faces.
Nothing seemed to move Him,
until HE SAW THE MOTHER.
until HE SAW THE MOTHER.
The Bible says He had compassion when He saw her and
immediately raised her boy from the dead. (Luke 7:12 - 15)
It was the cry of a mother who moved the Heart of God.
Still today, Mothers who cry before the Lord for their families,
for their marriage, for their homes move the Heart of God.

Satan gets a foothold and starts to destroy the home.
Yet, when they return to their rightful place as the anchor of the home, demonic strongholds get demolished. As a Mother protects, upholds and defends her children, so does God also protect us under the shadow of His Wings.
We find refuge there and can hide there until the danger is over.
A mother's role is so vital that a father cannot get his prayers answered if he dishonours or disrespects her (1 Peter 3:7). Because of this favour over mothers, they are also the most attacked persons in the home.
The devil is terrified of Mothers (the powerhouse in the home).
Yet the Lord has put inside Mothers grace and resilience to overcome any situation.
Today, as the woman of the home, consider yourself blessed.
Consider yourself highly favoured and consider yourself dangerous when you pray.
