There is No Greater Privilege in Life than Having a Godly Mother
How many of us can trace our first witness of truth and salvation back to our mother? Perhaps there is no greater privilege in life than to have a godly mother, one who fears the Lord and stands in the gap of prayer for her children.
​
A woman who abides in Christ and walks in His way may claim the rich inheritance that God's Word and Spirit provides.
​
The collection of prayers and Bible verses below are dedicated to the precious, godly mothers for encouragement, assurance, hope, and comfort; so shall it be that "her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her," Proverbs 31:28.

They are my life, and mean the world to me. You have given me the gift of being their mother and I thank You.

Scripture Meditations for Encouragement
Psalm 130:1-8
Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Lord.
Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.
If thou, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.
I wait for the Lord, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.
My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say more than they that watch for the morning.
Let Israel hope in the Lord: for with the Lord there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.
And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
Psalm 118:14-17
The Lord is my strength and so, and is become my salvation.
The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly.
The right hand of the Lord is exalted: the right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly.
I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord.
Isaiah 43:18-19
Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.
Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
A Prayer to Be a Godly Mother Who Has Great Influence on Her Children...
​
​
Heavenly Father,
​
You have given mothers charge over little ones at home, and this is a great responsibility. Mother's have great influence on their children's life. May we reflect Your love and teaching everyday, influencing our children in uprightness.
​
A Christian mother's heart desires her children to know God in the fullest way possible, and for them to commit to His ways all their days.
​
Your word tells us that if we teach our children the way they should go, when they are older they will not depart from it. May we, as mothers, commit to do just that. Commit to teach our children the godly way they should go.
​
Father, as we come to You now, we ask You to fill us with grace and wisdom to be excellent godly mothers. One that instills in her children the upright way they should go, so when they are older, they will recall our teaching, and not loose sight of it.
​
May we take time to sit with them, read Your word to them, pray with them, and for them. Help us to understand Your ways more, so that we can relate to this generation.
​
Then, may our children follow You all the days of their lives. May they walk before You with a pure conscience, and upright behavior. May they seek to do Your will.
​
Father, we have seen the way of the ungodly, and we don't want this for our children. Preserve them, keep them, and put a contrite heart within them.
​
You are worthy of all praise, honor and glory, and we thank You for placing this burden within our hearts. We want the very best for our children. We know You are a faithful God that hears our prayers, and You answer us according to Your will.
​
Bless You Father.
Please help us be excellent mothers, bringing glory to You.
​
In Your Precious Name, Amen.​

Father,
​
In a day when people disregard Your precious word, may You raise up a people who will be a light and testimony of Your ways. Give wisdom to young mom's who have little ones at home. May they seek You for wisdom and insight on training their children in Your ways.
​
You are a faithful God, and we know You are able to give discernment to young mothers who seek You for answers. Lead them according to Your ways, may they receive the fullest blessing of parenthood.
​
Cause them to desire Scriptural teaching on raising children, and follow examples of successful families. Bring them along under Your tender, watchful eye.
​
Impart heavenly wisdom unto young mothers who seek You. Then lead them onto life, peace and joy in raising their children.

May they regard You in all they do and may they be careful to set a good example of godly character before their eyes, for children watch their mommy's every move.
​
Help them make excellent choices throughout their day, and help them show love to the little ones in every way.
​
In Your Precious Name, Amen.
