The Spiritual Authority of a Mother

By Lead Servant Terrilyn Minnifield, May 09, 2021

Happy Mother’s Day

Exodus 20:12 (NASB)

Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.”

Honor – Give Great Respect, Honoring the Position your mom has in your life. Focus on the best part of that person. We honor our mom for who she is.

Mother – Bring up a Child with Care and Affection. By decision or by design – a mother’s love brought you comfort, knowledge and peace.

God created us before the very foundation of the world and then formed us in our mother’s womb

Psalm 139:13-14 (NASB) – formed my utmost being, knit together in my mother’s womb

  1. Your Mom Honors You

  2. Your Mom sees you as you were created

  3. Your Mom has a spiritual authority to pray, encourage and empower you into God’s perfect will in your life

Honoring you

  • Conceived you in her womb. Took care of her body. Growing with you as you develop. Pregnancy is a unique experience that teaches the capability of expanding our reality to nurture a human.

  • Fellowship with this person develops a unity where your experiences become the impartation of the very nature of the character of your child

  • The child becomes a extension of all that you cherish and moms promise to take care of as the fruits of the personality, the intellect of the mind and the range of emotions that develop. Your mom promises to be a steward over everything that concerns you.

Sees you as you were created

  • Unique story of how you were created here on Earth. Our own birth story- pregnancy, delivery and birth

  • Talks to the details of the day you entered their world and changed them from a woman to a mother

  • Best expression – you are the Holy Spirit for your child before they know who the Holy Spirit is

Spiritual Authority

  • Understands that there is a choice between the Kingdom of God and The World of Darkness

  • (2 Corinthians 4:3-4, TPT)

  • Right to make use of God’s power to enforce Spiritual Laws

  • Takes on the assignment to steward your spiritual development in the things of God

  • (Matthew 22:37, TPT)

  • Pray out God’s perfect will in your life

  • Understand that the attack is now, but on the blessings before us

  • Believes in you like no other person in the Earth because of the time spent with the you and their growth in God (John 2:1-5, TPT)

ElizabethLuke 1:24 (TPT) – went into seclusion for 5 month full of joy because God had blessed her with pregnancy

V37, Not one promise from God is empty of power

Mary – Jesus’ mother was the only human being that was with him all of his life. She received him, raises him and worshiped him as he was crucified

Luke 2:19 (TPT) Luke 2:49-51 (TPT)

Your mom and her position in your life and your heart is one of the greatest connections to the Supernatural.

Whether good or challenging…the testament to your life is her experience with you as you entered this world and for that… Honor your mom.

If you aspire to be the mother that empowers your children to walk out God’s perfect will on this Earth...take your position and the authority that you were given. Honor your children.

Happy Mother’s Day!
