Motherhood

There are few forces on earth as powerful as the prayers of a mother. A praying mother is more than just a woman who lifts up words to heaven; she is a warrior, a guardian, and an intercessor standing in the gap for her children. Her knees become the altar where destinies are shaped, and her tears are the seeds that water God’s promises over her household. When a mother prays, heaven listens and hell trembles, because her prayers carry the fragrance of sacrifice and the authority of love.

Hannah understood this truth. She wept before God for a son and vowed to dedicate him back to the Lord. God answered her, and Samuel became a mighty prophet in Israel (1 Samuel 1:10-20). Her prayer birthed not just a child but a legacy that changed the course of a nation. That is the power of a praying mother: she births both life and destiny through prayer.
