TEXT: PROVERBS 31:25-31
25. Strength and honour are her clothing; And she shall rejoice in time to come.
26. She openeth her mouth with wisdom; And in her tongue is the law of kindness.
27. She looketh well to the ways of her household, And eateth not the bread of idleness.
28. Her children arise up, and call her blessed; Her husband also, and he praiseth her.
29. Many daughters have done virtuously, But thou excellest them all.
30. Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: But a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.
31. Give her of the fruit of her hands; And let her own works praise her in the gates.
KEY VERSE: PROVERBS 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
Mary had four sons and at least two daughters, these children had natural wish and were born in sin, the coming of Jesus out of the womb of Mary did not wash that womb from sin. These children grew up ungodly like other children they did not believe in Jesus when He was on earth with them.
But they had a mother that was to turn them to righteousness and present them to God. She was a woman ordinary as you are but dedicated to God and passionate about Jesus. Mary had a sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas. So it is clear she was a human and not an angel created in heaven.
God did not give automatic repentance just because they came from the same womb with Jesus but Mary worked on her unbelieving children untill they became great preachers and Bible writers as James and Jude. Mary took it up with God and worked on them until they changed and became righteous and godly.
Learn from Mary, do not be lazy over your children, do not fold your hands over your children, do not allow them to go to hell. God is looking for your children, present them as a living sacrifice unto Him. Let the anointing of God fall on them to make them great preachers that will bring revival to the world in this end-time, be a role model to them.
Be loving and gentle, monitor them closely, have a program or schedule on their spiritual development ensure they are engaged in Divine assignment of the movement. Spend time consciously in studying the bible with them, fast with them and create time to be praying for them regularly.
The Lord will win over their body, spirit, and soul in Jesus name Amen. Mary had love in her heart, she was not a carefree woman she looked well and cared much. If you come across Mary then you would see beauty of love, care and gentleness. She was caring and compassionate, concerned yet under control. She had control of her emotions and tongue in speaking with her children
Thought for the day: Training of our children is a commandment.
Song for the day: Let others see Jesus in you ..(2×) keep telling the story....
Bible reading for the day: 2 Chronicles 21-24
