A DIVINE CALL TO MOTHERHOOD:

The woman is the crown of God’s creation. She is the epitome of beauty. In man’s attempt to show his creativity, he lines up everything he has made alongside the woman. It is as if to say, “as beautiful as the woman.” The woman is the yardstick of measuring architectural balance, poise and beauty. Many designers try to imitate the anatomy of a woman, and with almost everything man creates, he uses the woman to gauge public approval; he puts her image next to his product in order to market and sell it.

The woman is a master in the art of appeal. She does it so well, that her appeal got Adam to eat what he was not supposed to eat. Till this day, many women still use that appeal grace to get the wrong things done. Why do you think God would tell the prophet in Jeremiah 9:17-18 to bring the wailing woman forward in prayer? He knows what He put in her to make her get things done. She even knows how to appeal to God in prayer by wailing!

The woman has four major phases in her life and they are her birth, her womanhood, her marriage and her motherhood. These four phases or seasons of a woman’s life are inter-related. We can’t just jump to her motherhood without laying a background on the evolution of her womanhood from the garden of her birth.

The role of the mother is so crucial to the purpose of God that satan spends more time plotting his attack against her than the man. His biggest goal is to try and separate the woman from the man, physically and spiritually. When satan spoke to the woman in the garden, it was with the intention of separating her from the word of God, the purpose of God, her family and her man.

The present day independent woman phenomenon is a sophisticated packaging of the old trick of the serpent. To separate the woman from the man is part of the grand plan to separate the woman from her covenant of motherhood with God. It is not to be taken lightly; we should not be joining the women who lack understanding to sing the song made popular by Destiny’s Child, Independent Woman. The song is the sound track of a satanic agenda to further breakdown what God joined together from the beginning. God so joined them together that the woman was brought out of the man by a rib. The same way satan tries to separate the woman from the man is the same way he tries to separate the church, the bride of Christ, from her spiritual husband Christ Jesus.

The concept of God at one with His creation is something we need to grasp and that is the whole purpose of the ministry of reconciliation. In this hour of the messengers of the covenant, reconciling the woman to her covenant of motherhood must be pursued strategically.
