Truly our God is a God of patience, longsuffering, tender mercy, and great compassion. He has all power to zap all evil people and yet He waits with patience. He suffers the defiance and rebellion of the very creatures He created.I was reading the words of David again this morning, the words he shouted to Goliath, the Philistine. This Philistine had been taunting the people of God for weeks but there was not one person what was brave enough to stand up against this giant until David turned up on the scene. Can I remind you of his words?
1 Samuel 17:45-47: “You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you in THE NAME OF THE LORD OF HOSTS, THE GOD OF THE ARMIES OF ISRAEL, WHOM YOU HAVE DEFIED. This day the LORD will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you. And this day I will give the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the air and the wild beasts of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.”
These were spoken by a young 17-year-old boy, a young man who knew His God.
We are facing a similar war today. Do we realize that we are living in a nation that defies God? They have made same-sex marriage a law! That is absolute DEFIANCE against God who created marriage between one male and one female. We know that it is inspired by Satan who hates everything that God has designed and seeks to oppose it.
Now we have blatant rejection of male and female and an all-out-front to urge people to change to the opposite gender, to become the opposite of who God created them to be. They are DEFYING God just as Goliath was defying God.
It’s time for those with the spirit of David, men and women, young and old, to rise up and challenge those who defy God and His absolute truth. I read the other day that 99 percent of Americans should not have to adjust their morals to accommodate one percent of the population! Many public schools are now using two books, HEATHER HAS TWO MOMMIES and MY PRINCESS BOY for five and six-year-olds to encourage them to change their gender. This is again defiance against God.
Dear mother, make sure you are on the side of truth. The latest statistics published by the Christian Post state that “Just 2 percent of parents with children under 13 years were found to have a biblical worldview.” How will the next generation have a biblical worldview if their parents don’t?
It's time to rise up and speak out boldly. We must know the truth, speak the truth, and stand for the truth. We must never compromise. God is truth and anything that counteracts His word is false! We must challenge everything that defies God’s truth.
Romans 3:4: “Let God be true, but every man a liar.”
Let’s wave our banners for the truth,

We all want to be blessed by the Lord, don’t we? Did you know that God’s first and greatest blessing to you as a mother is to bless you with the fruit of your womb?

Yes, it’s time to shine your light. Teaching God’s truth to your children at home and shining His light wherever you go.

Gathering your family together daily to read God’s Word, Pray and worship God.
Sitting down to a meal is far more than eating food. Eating not only feeds a hungry tummy but includes all of the five senses—sight, hearing, touch, smell, and taste. Can I encourage you to think about this as you prepare meals for your family? It will bring such blessing to your children.
Education is for life. Not only should our children learn something new each day but we as parents should also. A good question to ask at your family meal table is “What is something new you have learned today?”
In a day when many families eat on the run, around the TV, or at different times, why is it important to come together as a family and SIT AT THE TABLE FOR FAMILY MEALTIMES? Because...

“The newborn babe is a fresh act of God. He is the latest revelation of God’s creative handiwork.”
Keep your eyes upon the Lord rather than your difficulties and obstacles. God is bigger than any challenge you are facing today.
What is your ultimate vision for your children? To get them into the best college? Push them to get a degree and make a name for themselves? Or to see Christ formed in them? To see them walking in the truth? To see them passionate for Jesus Christ and His kingdom?
Do they have a biblical world view? Are God’s truths penetrated into their hearts and minds more than the ideologies of this world? Can they contend for their faith? This is your responsibility as a parent.
God is Father. He loves to father. He is the source of all parenting.
I wonder why the modern women, even Christian women, hate the word submission. Help! I wonder what they do with this Scripture in 1 Timothy 2:11? “Let the woman learn in silence with ALL subjection.” The Greek word here is “hupotage” which is a little stronger than the usual word for submission which is “hupotasso.” Other translations of the Bible translate it this way:
Yesterday I shared how day care is counterfeit for a mother being with her little one in the home. There is no way to give back to your child all they miss by being in daycare and away from mother. The constancy of motherhood can never be duplicated. In fact, the baby begins to bond with the mother while in the womb and listens to hear her voice when coming into the world.
