• Traits Of A Great Mom/Spiritual Mother May 11, 2025

  Traits Of A Great Mom/Spiritual Mother (Luke 1:5-7; Luke 1:24, 25; Luke 1:39-45; Luke 1:56, 57; Luke 1:76-79) May 11, 2025 ✽God entrusted this woman to carry, birth, and/or spiritually nurture World Changers! What attracted God? Sarah refused to allow the “labels” to define her! (Cultural, religious, familial….) She was NOT Barren in spirit! (Luke 1:7-25) She resisted bitterness, blame, and overcame disappointment. Intimacy with the Lord granted her Faith, perseverance, submission to the process (conception, pregnancy, etc.) Sarah’s humility made her attracted to God’s favor and promotion! (Luke 14:11) ✽We can and we must have and nourish life in our heart (spirit) when there is death in our circumstances. Sarah’s provided a “safe place”, encouragement, and older model of a true “spiritual Mother” to Mary! Sarah pronounced a Blessing on Mary in her time of great need! (Luke 1:42-45) Sarah’s pain became the backdrop for God’s story! She birthed and mothered, John the Baptist, forerunner of Jesus! Jesus said there was no prophet greater! Continued faith and trust will be rewarded!

(How we see all people in all situations, places, positions. i.e., avoid bait of the enemy to “hero worship”, cultural or political or educational, racial, economic rejection) (2 Corinthians 5:16) Value the New Identity in Christ!
