Impact of A Mother on Her Children

Mothers are endowed with an all powerful
Control over their offering, and most men
Of eminence in the world have acknowledge
Their great indebtedness to maternal influence

The Bible is replete with great influence
Godly mothers wielded on their children
And the reward they got for their efforts
Through much prayer, Hannah impacted
Samuel’s life with her godliness at a tender age of 2

And later dedicated him to the priesthood
As it turns out Samuel became a great man of God
He was a prophet in and the first judge of Israel

Jochebed also had a great impact on her children
Through daring faith, godly wisdom and divine guidance
She raised three children Miram, Aaron and Moses
Who grew up to become leaders in Israel
Miram her only daughter became a prophetess
Aaron became Israel’s first high priest
Moses became great deliverer of God’s people Israel

The list of great and influential moms in the Bible wont be complete
Without the mention of Mary, the earthly mother of our Saviour and Lord
She became the most honoured woman among mortals because of her chastity
Coupled with godliness which reflected in her training of Jesus.
And the list goes on and on like that

Some mothers in our contemporary times
Also fall in into this category of influential moms
Susana Wesley was known as the mother of Methodist
Though she never preached a sermon nor published a book
As a mother you must line up with these influential mothers
And raise godly seed to the Lord
