We had a great time together this morning as we glorified the Lord in worship & honoured all our Ebenezer Mother’s.
Our spiritual father, Pastor Andrew Moses shared a powerful message entitled- “Mother’s & Midwives”
“whatever you give a woman, she makes it greatest”
Mothering is hard work but what we lack today is midwives!
Midwives know how to:
• Deliver the baby safely
• Protect life & not kill
• Midwives see far ahead - they see destinies - they understand purpose!
Exodus 1:15-21 NLT
[15] Then Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, gave this order to the Hebrew midwives, Shiphrah and Puah:
[16] "When you help the Hebrew women as they give birth, watch as they deliver. If the baby is a boy, kill him; if it is a girl, let her live."
[17] But because the midwives feared God, they refused to obey the king's orders. They allowed the boys to live, too.
[18] So the king of Egypt called for the midwives. "Why have you done this?" he demanded. "Why have you allowed the boys to live?"
[19] "The Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women," the midwives replied. "They are more vigorous and have their babies so quickly that we cannot get there in time."
[20] So God was good to the midwives, and the Israelites continued to multiply, growing more and more powerful.
[21] And because the midwives feared God, he gave them families of their own.
These midwives in Moses’s time carried out themselves in a Godly way
Code of conduct of Midwives:
• They feared God
• Submitted to God’s agenda
• Fixed their heart on God
• Resisted evil
• Protects life
Midwives reward:
Exodus 1:20-21 NLT
[20] So God was good to the midwives, and the Israelites continued to multiply, growing more and more powerful.
[21] And because the midwives feared God, he gave them families of their own.
Exodus 1:20-21 KJV
[20] Therefore God dealt well with the midwives: and the people multiplied, and waxed very mighty.
[21] And it came to pass, because the midwives feared God, that he made them houses.
