The inhabitants of the villages ceased, they ceased in Israel, until that I Deborah arose, that I arose a mother in Israel..’ -Acts 18:18

Warring as a Mom!

There will be many times would have to war over our children. It may not necessarily be throwing physical missiles around but we would have to win battles over our children.

It should be relationships that you know are not good for your children, there would be decisions we would take to ensure their destinies are protected.

Some battles would be fought on our knees in prayers, others would be fought by instructions and deliberate interference in the lives of our children.

If your child is following peers that have bad habits, we don’t just sit down and leave them to make their choices, we instruct and sometimes, would place boundaries where possible to save their future.

“I assure you and most solemnly say to you, whatever you bind [forbid, declare to be improper and unlawful] on earth shall have [already] been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose [permit, declare lawful] on earth shall have [already] been loosed in heaven.” - Matt 18:18 (AMP). (Emphasis mine)

Anything that is improper in the lives of our children, we shall stand against it in prayer and instruction and trust God for victory.

May God give us the strength to arise like Deborah to restore life in our homes in Jesus name. Amen!
