3 Characteristics of a Godly Mother

3 Characteristics of a Godly Mother | May 14, 2023 Sermon

In this sermon, we explore the virtues of a godly mother as outlined in Proverbs 31. As we look at the character of this woman, we discover three key traits that every mother should embody to follow in her footsteps and live a life pleasing to God. The qualities of a godly mother extend beyond the three characteristics we see in Proverbs 31. Scripture teaches us that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom (Proverbs 9:10), and this principle applies to mothers as well. When a mother fears God and seeks Him in all her ways, she will be able to teach her children to do the same. In Proverbs 1:8, we see that a son is to heed his mother’s instruction and not forsake his father’s teaching. A godly mother will teach her children the ways of the Lord and instill in them a love for God and His Word.
Additionally, sacrificial love is a hallmark of motherhood. Just as Jesus laid down His life for us, a mother sacrifices her time, energy, and resources for the sake of her children. Join us as we delve into Proverbs 31 to study these three characteristics of a godly mother. Whether you are a mother or not, this message will inspire and encourage you to live a life that honors God.
