In this day of delusion and deception regarding the genders, we must know who we are. That’s certainly not difficult to understand, especially as we have been discussing the Hebrew words for women during the last week.We are only one or the other, male or female. We are either XY if male or XX if female. God makes that abundantly clearly through the three witnesses of truth—biblically, physically, and innately.
Throughout God’s Word, He makes the absolute distinction between male and female and calls anything else an abomination (Leviticus 182-25). Check the following:
Male (zakar) / female (nqebah) Notice that the two Hebrew words are totally different (Genesis 1: 27).
Man / woman (Genesis 2:23).
Father / mother (Genesis 2:24).
Husband / wife (Genesis 2:25; Proverbs 12:4; 31:11, 12, and 28).
Master / mistress (Genesis 16:4 and 24:9).
Bridegroom / bride (Psalm 19:5; Isaiah 49:18; 61:10; 62:5; and Jeremiah 33:11).
Mankind / womankind (Leviticus 18:22 and 20:13).
Young men / maidens (Isaiah 62:5).
Sons / daughters (Genesis 5:4).
Boys / girls (Zechariah 8:5).
God called them Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve. Arthur W. Pink comments on God's creation of man: "Not both males or both females, but one male and one female; and to make the design of this unmistakably plain God says, "Be fruitful and multiply." For this reason marriage is called "matrimony," which signifies motherage because it results in virgins becoming mothers."
The Latin word for mother is “mater” from which come the words maternal, maternity, matrimony, marriage, wedlock, nuptial, connubial, and hymeneal (coming from hymen, the virginal membrane).
Noah Webster’s 1828 dictionary tells us that the “Latin word for feminine comes from “femina” meaning woman. The first syllable is probably from womb, by the use of “f” for “w.” The last part of the word is probably from man, quasi, femman, meaning womb-man.”
Actually, there are only two types of people in this world—a man without a womb, the male; and a man with a womb, the woman, therefore a “womb-man.” The glory of the woman is her womb.
You may have heard that Biden and his cohorts have removed the word “mother” from their health programs for the phrase “birthing people.” The liberals keep taking out words from the Bible that have belonged to the generations since the beginning of time. They want nothing to do with God and His ultimate plan.
I intend to keep to God’s vocabulary of female, woman, and mother. God chose the word mother! And I’m not giving it up. God used the word “mother” before there was ever a mother on the earth (Genesis 2;24)! He ordained mothers before there were mothers. Mothers are His plan for the world. To reveal His maternal heart to the world. To bring softness and tenderness to the knocks and the hardships of this world. To keep this world going and to birth, nurture, and train great men and women who will bless the world.
In this world of ridiculous deception, embrace your motherhood anointing in a greater way than you ever have before. Know that you are walking in the perfect will of God. Lift your head high and be proud of the calling God has given you. You have been named “mother” by God. You have been created for this purpose. Never be intimidated by those who are deceived.
Live your God-anointed life of mothering today,

Are you getting your family ready for church today? Are you excited about gathering together with the people of the Lord? This is one of the ways we know that we are born again when we love to be with His people.
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer Blessed Lord,
In the first three chapters of Genesis, we read six different names for woman—female, woman/wife (same Hebrew word), mother, Eve, and help meet (two words). Each one reveals a different aspect of who we are. Wow, we are so versatile and amazing!
Colin and I are looking forward to six GREATgrandbabies coming.
With her tender caresses, the loving mother can cast a spell of protection over her young child that lasts for decades. In the long-lasting protection conferred by a mother's love, Dr. Mohammadreza Hojat of Jefferson Medical College sees confirmation of the attachment theory of psychology, which emphasizes the importance of mother-child bonding.
I Just had to post this illustration. It is so typical of a nursing mother. We sit down to nurse the baby, the calming, stress-relieving hormone oxytocin kicks in, and soon we are dozing off! God gives these little catnaps to mothers to give them strength for another round of challenge! God is so good and provides for all our needs.
Both male and FEMALE are created in the image and likeness of God and reveal different aspects of the image of God. God has chosen His female creation to reveal His nurturing heart. We see this clearly in the way God physically and innately created women.
The first woman was called female, mother, wife (same Hebrew word as mother), and she was also name Eve meaning “life-giver.” Judge Jackson could have described the meaning of woman in two words!
We continue discovering the Bible words for the word women. Yesterday we talked about female. The next word God uses is woman in Genesis 2:23 which is the Hebrew word “ishshah.”
Further to the post below, and in the light of such deception about womanhood today, I believe it is important to discuss this subject further. We all know the basic understanding that a woman is a female. She is opposite to a male. The feminists and the progressives don’t like that simple understanding because they don’t acknowledge God. To truly know who a woman really is, we must know what God says about her because He is the One who created her.
A lovely definition of a woman in response to nominee Judge Jackson who does not know the definition of a woman.
When I was young, preachers constantly exhorted young people to never marry a non-Christian. They drummed 2 Corinthians 6:14 into us: “Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers.” Yes, it was a good message, and I could not have ever thought of marrying someone who didn’t love God with all his heart.
I am the proud mama of three little girls: Paige (15), Linley (10), and Blaire (21 months). My husband, William, and I have a unique story. Shortly after my second daughter was born, I talked my husband into having a vasectomy because my pregnancy had been so hard. I had not come from a background that thought birth control was wrong, so I had been on and off the pill for years. I was tired of taking it so I asked him to take care of the birth control in our marriage.
I am sure that you must be so concerned, as I am, that they want to indoctrinate the children and young people of our nation with this deceptive Critical Race Theory.
I have always dreamed of a lilac (lavender) bedroom. I love this color, especially because it was my mother’s favorite color. It’s lovely to have a memory of your mother, isn’t it? At last we painted our bedroom this color. I have lovely lavender flowers draping around the canopy over our bed and my husband and I both love it.
Who is your marriage all about? Is it all about you? Many couples live together but are not bound together. They start off with love and passion but as the years go by their relationship gradually grows boring and stagnant.
What a privilege to be a woman!
It is inherent within us to love home. Yes, I know there are many women who don't want to be home with their children and would much rather be out of the home. But this is mental conditioning by our humanistic society—programmed through the media and the education system. It is not inherent.
Yes, of course you do. As parents, we are very concerned about educating our children to prepare them for life. But what is education? Noah Webster's 1828 Dictionary states: "The bringing up of a child; instruction; formation of manners. Education comprehends all that series of instruction and discipline which is intended to enlighten the understanding, correct the temper, and form the manners and habits of youth, and fit them for usefulness in their future stations. To give children a good education in manners, arts, and science is important; to give them a religious education is indispensable; and an immense responsibility rests on parents and guardians who neglect these duties."
