LIFE TO THE FULL w/ Nancy Campbell

EPISODE 191: THE LAND OF MOTHERHOOD, Part 2

Zadok Elijah Johnson joins me today. Zadok is Evangeline and Howard’s oldest son, who runs the BSC courses for young men (BIBLE, SURVIVAL, AND COMBAT).

We continue speaking about the first description of the land—IT IS A GOOD LAND! One of the good things is to be home, mothers! How does Zadok fit into this? You’ll have to listen to find out!

Announcer: Welcome to the podcast, Life to The Full, with Nancy Campbell, founder and publisher of Above Rubies.

Nancy Campbell: Hello, ladies! Well, today I have my oldest grandson with me, Zadok Johnson. That’s Evangeline’s son. Actually, I think if we were to pronounce your name correctly, it would be “Za-DOK Eli-YA-hu.” Would that be right?

Zadok Johnson: Well, it’s definitely not an American version.

Nancy: I know. I don’t think I’m even saying it correctly for Hebrew. My lovely Israeli listeners, you’ll have to forgive me that I don’t always pronounce the Hebrew words correctly. But Zadok, as we say here in America, means “leading many to righteousness.”

Right from a little boy, Zadok knew what his name meant. I think names are very important. As you speak them into your children, they get the destiny of their name. Zadok grew up knowing this was his destiny, to lead many to righteousness. He’s always had that anointing upon him. He’s still doing it today at 29 years of age. He leads the, what do we call it? BSC, Basic Survival Course. Did I get it right?

Zadok: Bible. Yes, so it’s BSC, BIBLE – SURVIVAL - COMBAT.

Nancy: Well, I heard completely wrong. Bible and Survival and Combat. Maybe some of your sons have already been and absolutely loved it, even though they came home and had to sleep for a week!

Zadok will be having many this coming year. Have you got any organized yet, Zadok?

Zadok: We have six Bible bootcamps planned for this coming year which is super exciting.

Nancy: I guess that’s so far, because they seem to pop up along the year as well, don’t they?

Zadok: Right, right.

Nancy: Where is your first one?

Zadok: We actually haven’t launched that officially on the website yet. I’ve been so busy with logistics and speaking at youth events this winter that I haven’t had time. It will get launched up probably in the next month or two.

Nancy: I see. Yes. So, they can go to the website, which is. . .

Zadok: www.bsccourse.com. That “bsc” is separate from “course,” so you’ll have to type that in clearly: www.bsccourse.com.

Nancy: Yes, so your sons will love that! So, I have Zadok here because he popped over this morning and we were chatting together. He was telling me about how’s he’s been out speaking at some youth events. He has a few little things to say that I’ll ask him along the way.

We are now in our second session of “The Land that Flows with Milk and Honey.” We’re on point number one, IT IS A GOOD LAND. We’re looking at the good things, the beautiful things that God wants the older women to teach the younger women.

We are up to “keepers at home.” We were mentioning how many women don’t like that phrase. But it is a Bible phrase. We either believe the Bible or we don’t believe. I’m amazed at how many “Christian” women don’t actually believe the Bible! Well, they say they do, but there’s so many things that they don’t really believe in it!

Well, let’s look at this word “keepers at home.” There actually are two translations of this word, coming from the different manuscripts. The first is oikourogo. Maybe I’m not pronouncing it correctly. But it comes from two Greek words, oikos, meaning “home,” and ergon, meaning “to work.” So, the literal meaning is “home workers.”

Now, I believe in women working. I’m a great heralder of working women. But where do they work? That is the issue. God wants women to work in the home! Home-workers. This is where we work. This is our life’s work! And it is work! It takes everything of you to work in the home. It’s not a holiday. It is work!

But it’s a marvelous work. It’s a wonderful work. It’s a glorious work. It’s a good work, as Titus 2 says.

But there is another translation, which comes from the Received Text, oikouros.  It also is from two Greek words, oikos, “home,” and ouros, meaning “to guard, to watch, to keep, to have the oversight and responsibility for something.” So, this time it means “home-guarders.”

Both meanings are so wonderful—homeworker, home-guarder. We are in the home to guard over our home, to guard over our children’s lives, to watch that the enemy does not intrude into our homes. It’s a full-time job to be a home-guarder. To be a guarder, you have to be there!

Many of you have a watchdog at your home. When someone comes, your dog will bark, letting you know he’s a good watchdog. Now, if your dog wasn’t at your home, he couldn’t be a watchdog. And we cannot be a watchdog if we’re not in the home.

This is another aspect of the home-guarding. In the King James version, it says, “keepers of the home.” It’s a picture of the keeper of the castle. He guards that castle. He will not allow any intruders into that castle, because that’s his job, to guard over it. It’s also our job, not only to work in our homes, but to guard over our homes.

Now, this word is the only time it’s used in the whole of the New Testament. So, to truly understand it, we can’t go to any other Scriptures. We have to go back to what was happening at the time when that Scripture was written, to understand the actual Greek language at that time.

This word was always used at that time of a stay-at-home mother, and also of a stay-at-home father, who didn’t go out to war. He was called a “stay-at-home father.” It was used even of a dog who was a watchdog, so that is the actual meaning.

Although sometimes those words “stay-at-home” can seem negative and binding. Oh, goodness me, sort of like a prison! Oh, no! No! To be in the home is a glorious thing! Our home is a place where we can accomplish so much! We are in the home. God gave the home to women.

I love going back to Genesis and seeing how God did it all. We read there, in Genesis 2, how God created the man. And then, before He created the woman, the next thing He did was create the Garden home. It was the next thing! He got the home ready before He brought the woman into the world.

We don’t even read about the woman until we go right down in that chapter to verse 18. Genesis 2:18: “I will make you a help-meet.” And then God creates the woman. He brings her to the man. When Eve wakes up to life, she’s already in her home! God had it all ready for her, because this is where He wanted her, in the home.

This is the place that He planned for the raising of children, a place of safety and security, and a place that we guard from the intrusion of the enemy, a place where we can raise our children in the ways of the Lord, away from all the deceptions and the ugliness of the world. Yes, they’re going to go out to face that ugly, deceived, sinful world. They’re going to go out to live in it.

But we have to first get them ready to live in it. It’s like when we plant a tree. You would understand this, Zadok, because you are the great organic farmer. But when you plant a tree, a little tree, a little sapling, if you don’t protect it, it’s just going to die. Yes, have you found experience with that?

Zadok: Yeah, absolutely. They call it “plant shock,” when you put out a plant that has been growing in a nice greenhouse. Now it gets planted out in the early spring, in the cold. It will actually suffer from that “plant shock,” as they call it. You actually have to harden them off.

There’s maybe a one-week time, when before you take your plants out to the field, you actually take your plants out for a few days, and let them experience the elements, shall we say. I think that even applies to humans. You don’t just, children don’t just get kicked out of the home at a certain point. There’s that maturing to be able to handle the things of this world.

Nancy: That is so true. I’ve ruined many, many little saplings and haven’t protected them enough. And they’ve died. They’ve got to be protected in those early years. They have to be, really, they’ve got to be strong enough, and ready enough, and have the Word of God in them enough, to go out and face all those deceptions.

Zadok: Amen. Amen.

Nancy: Yes, that is so true. You know, we’re there, in the home, doing this. It’s not some little insignificant thing. We are impacting the nation. Dear ladies, a nation is only what its mothers are. Because the mothers are there in the heart of the home, training the children. This is what we are doing. We are teaching, and training, and encouraging, and exhorting, and inspiring, and guarding, and guiding, and even commanding, and putting destiny into our children.

It is so powerful! We not only affect the nation, but we affect other nations of the world. My children have grown, of course, and now they’re raising their children, and their children are raising their children! We now have the great-grandchildren coming on

But my children have been to countries I haven’t even been to take the Gospel. My grandchildren have been . . . you’ve been to countries I haven’t been! Oh my, I’ve been to many countries of the world, but you’ve been to some countries I’ve never got to, some interesting countries. What are some you’ve been to recently?

Zadok: Well, not recently, because God has pulled me back to train up young men. But I have been to the jungles of southeast Asia, and in China which was exciting, Bangladesh, and Burma.

Nancy: I haven’t got to those countries yet. But how did you get there? Only because I brought your mother into the world and trained her to be an evangelist for God. She trained you and you went out!

Zadok: Right. Right. I will say I have often thought, everyone I have ever shared the Gospel with, it’s my parents’ reward, and your reward, that what they have sown, I get to reap. Even Jesus said that. “I send you out where others have sown, and you get to reap the reward.”

Nancy: Yes. So lovely ladies, you darling young mums who have just, you’ve got your little ones around you, and you’re tearing your hair out, and you hardly know what you’re doing. Oh, be encouraged! Not one moment of motherhood is wasted. It’s an eternal career. You’re not only preparing them to impact the world but you’re getting them ready for eternity!

Just think, these little children, you can hardly even imagine what will happen one day and where they will go to serve the Lord. Just begin to plant those seeds in them. Give them that inspiration. Put it into them. Don’t just let your children amble along.

It’s become a thing today, that parents like to let their children just do what they feel. Parents have lost that anointing of commanding their children and really impacting their lives powerfully and purposely. That is parenting! Parenting is not just being good friends. Well, that’s important. You’ve got to be good friends. But just letting them, you don’t want to put anything too much on them, because, well, they may not like you. They may just rebel. Oh, for goodness’ sake!

OK, what was Abraham, the pattern father? And what does it say about him? Let me have a look here. It’s in Genesis 18:19: “For I know him, that he will COMMAND his children and his household after him.” Yes! He commanded them in the ways of God.

He didn’t let them decide for themselves whether they would follow God or whether they would come to church. I have some mothers who, their children don’t want to come, “Well, OK, you can stay home.” I beg your pardon! That’s not parenting! Parenting is commanding your children in the ways of God. And that’s what Abraham did. “And they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment.” That’s parenting. Yes!

So, there we are. We’re in the home. We’re doing a great, great job. And you don’t actually have to be running around everywhere. Years and years ago, and I haven’t even seen this car sticker in, I can’t remember how many years, because how long have I been married? Fifty-nine years in March! Whoo!

But when I was a young mother, I saw this car sticker: “If a mother’s place is in the home, why am I always in the car?” Well, actually, the car isn’t the best place for mothering your children. It’s meant to be the home.

Of course, we’ve got to go out. We’ve got to get our groceries and we’ve got to do certain things. But I think because every mother has a car today, they get tempted to be running around too much. Watch it, dear mothers. It doesn’t say, “You’re to be the keepers of the car,” but the “keepers of the home.” That’s where you’ll accomplish so much more.

Now, did your mother run you around everywhere in the car, Zadok?

Zadok: Absolutely not! And, in fact, I’m thinking she probably hiked us more places than she walked us. I mean, more places than she drove us. You even know this, with Mum even turning down many Above Rubies events, even though there were mothers who wanted her to come, that she wanted to see. She would say no, just to hang out with us, and to disciple us.

The other problem with the car is that you can’t spank your children because they’re in the back seat! There’s always the rowdy four-year-old in the very back of the seat, who’s pinching the next brother or sibling. You can’t be on top of them with a family. We were in a big car ride, going up in northern Minnesota. It was so interesting. Why is it that always in cars, it’s maybe a little harder to be on top of them, in a beautiful way.

Nancy: Did you go to lessons, and sports, and everything, all the time?

Zadok: No, not at all. It came from, I think, a focus of leadership. Mum didn’t allow us to control her life. We were, if Mum was into sewing, we had to learn how to sew. If Mum was into knitting, all of us boys know how to knit! Because Mum was determined to have us for friends. We were jumping into her world. Where I see it often the other way around. “Oh, well, my children are into soccer.” I was into soccer, but they never took me to soccer games. I didn’t play soccer on a team.

Nancy: They had plenty of soccer out here on this lawn!

Zadok: Right! Right! I think, yeah, Mum and Dad didn’t take us everywhere. They would take us to the things that mattered to them and to the family. But often it’s the whole family, running around for one of the special children that gets the, shall we say, the point. That can be healthy if it’s monitored. But, yeah, I couldn’t agree more, Nana.

Nancy: I think this has become a way of mothering in our society today. The mothers think that this is what you have to do. You’ve got to take your children to this lesson, and this sport, and that. And the children think that’s what has to happen too.

Zadok: They’re not missing out. That’s the thing. The temptation of the society is, oh, your children won’t develop right, they’ll be missing out of something if you don’t look like all the other mothers. My Mum was the radical and very individualistic. But all of us turned out following the Lord, all ten of us. I think that’s because we saw it in her life. She would rather spend time with us than us going and hanging out with peers somewhere here or there.

Nancy: That is so true. There’re certain things you will do, but just watch over it, and guard it, because you don’t have to. I just want you to know, lovely mothers, you don’t have to do what every other mother is doing. You don’t have to be running around everywhere.

Actually, half the time, when I was raising our children, I didn’t have a car anyway! Therefore, my children didn’t go to all these things. But they all survived. They didn’t only survive, they all have done such incredible, great, amazing things! And they didn’t even have to do all that to do them! No! That’s not what makes room for your children. The Word of God, in Proverbs 18:16 says: “Your gift will make room for you and bring you before kings.”

But, talking about cars, actually, believe it or not, I haven’t even had a car for the last two years! I borrowed my car to someone, out of my good heart, and they never gave it back! So, I just never had one.

The amazing thing is, I survived. Do you know, ladies, I really hardly noticed that I didn’t have a car? Life in our home is so exciting. We have so many functions, and bridal showers, and baby showers, and weddings, and parties, and people coming and going. Hospitality continually.

I give myself the impression that I’m going everywhere! Actually, I’m not going anywhere! I’m staying here. I’m in the home, but everything’s happening. Life is exciting. I’m seeing so many people, and hundreds of people! It’s exciting.

But you see, you make your home what you want it to be. You are the one who makes it. If your home is boring, and you’re bored at home, there’s something wrong, because your home can be the most exciting place in the world, a place where you can accomplish great things.

Yes, because, and especially as a mother, it’s far more than just, OK, looking after your little children. It’s more than that. It’s being inspired to what they will be and putting that into them. You were created, you were chosen, you were commissioned for motherhood. God wants you to be committed to it. And He wants you to complete it!

Many mothers, oh, I’ve just sent out the new Above Rubies, as you know. Each time an Above Rubies goes out, I always have this sad time when older mothers will email me and say, “Thank you, Nancy, for sending Above Rubies to me all these years. But my family has grown now, so I don’t need it anymore. So, I’m going to cancel my subscription.”

And I feel so sad! Because they haven’t yet completed their career! We are mothers, not for a certain time. We are mothers until we meet the Lord. It’s who we are. And motherhood does not finish when our children leave the home! In fact, it doubles, it enlarges, it becomes bigger, because not only do grandchildren start to come along, and then great-grandchildren, but as older mothers, by this time you are an older mother. . .

If you happen to be an older mother listening, you’re an older mother, and now you are commissioned. You are mandated. You are commanded in the Word of God to teach the younger women. So, what are you doing? Cancelling Above Rubies? I don’t think you’re teaching the younger women. And what about your daughters and your daughters-in-law? Help!

You see, we’ve got to pass it on to the next generation. This is a deceived generation like no other generation before. There is such deception. There are so few women in the home. We have got to get the message out. Older women are needed! There needs to be an army of older women who are teaching the young women and showing them the way. In their homes! How can they even show them if they’ve left the home? We can’t even show them.

It’s not just mothering our little ones, then our middlings, then our teens. But it’s them mothering other mothers! That’s our life work.

Oh, Zadok! While you’re here, you must tell me. You were sharing this morning about how you’ve been out speaking at these youth. You know, these are Christian youth, and yet, and yet, you couldn’t believe where they are at in their lives.

Zadok: Yeah, it’s so sad. God brought me back from the foreign mission field to raise up the next generation here in the West. It’s young missionaries. I get the great privilege of working with lots of teenagers and hundreds of young men. It’s just so sobering. Every single time that I get to preach to young people, or share my heart, I come away going, to be honest, first I thought, “Wow, is the next generation just missing it?”

And then I realize, no, they’re not. We are, because we haven’t realized that our words carry the weight of destiny that they will run on. Young people are raised with a “Well, I’m provided for, and I have boundaries in my home,” but not necessarily having the life being spoken into them of destiny.

I was sharing with you, Nana, earlier, how I’ve been at some youth events, and I realized youths are not necessarily purposed with destiny, with vison over their life. They’re lacking in that area. That is really the foundation of other things in our Christian faith. Without vision, people perish. With vision, we have life, that vision of the glories of eternity with God, and living with Him for eternity. We are the most despicable among people if we don’t have that resurrection, that vision.

And yet, teenagers today are living, “Well, you know, hopefully I’ll have some fun." I’m going, “I love fun, but our fun as believers comes from this purpose, my destiny. We’ve got a life to live in this amazing job called the life for God!”

I was thinking, as we were talking earlier, in some ways I have no choice. Yes, I was given a choice to not follow the Lord. But at the same time, I was telling someone just recently this week, “Yeah, my grandparents and parents were determined to make me a public speaker, whether I liked it or not!” I can remember you, Nana, getting up to speak in front of your motherly friends when I was only, what? Ten or eleven years old?

Nancy: Oh, yes. At our Christmas parties and functions, everybody has to get up and say something. When you were little, you could hardly put two words together!

Zadok: Oh, I hated it! I absolutely despised it! In fact, sometimes I thought, “Man, I’ll just hide in the woods this Christmas!” I was thinking, “How can I sneak away from a Christmas shindig?” Because I knew that my grandparents would make me practice, to get me to be a public speaker.

And without even knowing it, it laid the foundation for me now. . . I love sharing the Gospel to hundreds of people. I think that next generation, we’re talking, of course, with you guys being mothers, and you’re two, three, four years old. What if we were speaking life into these young children?

Not just like, “Oh, you’re a great blessing,” but “You’re going to be a world changer! You’re going to share the Gospel with many. Nations are your possession.” These are all Scriptures. Yes, it’s prophetic. Destiny upon people’s lives.

But it’s also just straight Scripture. Actively teaching the nations that you are an inheritance. You are a saint, a royal, holy priesthood, a royal possession unto the Lord. Your heart will be steadfast unto the Lord. Train up a child in the way he shall go, and he shall not depart from it. Well, now we just speak the “not depart from it.” We take that as a command for our own lives. Well, speak that now over them. “You will not depart from the ways of the Lord. That is not your portion.”

To speak that life over children, I am so thankful I was raised in a home where my parents, which received some of these blessings from you guys, Nana and Granddad, spoke that over my life. “You’re going to change the world. You’re going to share the Gospel with many. You won’t be afraid of the darkness, for the Light is in you.”

As a young child, that laid a foundation for my life of confidence in God. I actually, I just have something I want to read here. Someone just recently asked me, “What’s your favorite thing about your family and the family culture I was raised in?’ I was like, “Wow, that’s kind of a heavy question to ask here.”

All of a sudden, the answer came to mind. I really want to honor you, Nana, for this, because I’m getting life out the fruit of that. So, the first thing that came to mind was the heritage in confidence in God’s ability to pull off the unobtainable, to pull off what is too big for man.

I think of my uncles and aunts. I think of my parents, all six of your children. They’ve all been able to pull off what man cannot do. God was upon their life. God was writing their destiny. Then I look at your grandchildren. How many? Because I don’t know how many cousins I have! I should.

Nancy: Fifty plus?

Zadok: Yeah, that’s awesome.

Nancy: And greats? Over twenty plus. We’ve got to keep counting now.

Zadok: So awesome. It’s great to be part of a great big family. But I look at our lives, and God doing impossible things in our family life. Our destiny, our legacy has been blessed by God’s ability to do things that we couldn’t do in our own flesh.

I think part of that is the confident expectation, the spoken word of destiny that you will do things that God can only pull off. I would so much rather train a young man that hasn’t got to go to soccer practice, but instead had parents that were his close friends. Because they were his friends, they were able to speak those words of life and empowerment, “You’re going to be someone who will change the world.”

It’s not just generic because it’s not coming from some random person. But it’s coming from a parent that’s your friend, who’s invested in your life. As you were saying earlier in the podcast, that has not gone off with doing everything else, but instead sacrificed on behalf of their children. Being invested. Yeah, I think at the end of the day, the next generation is missing destiny that we ourselves are responsible for implanting at a young age.

Nancy: Yes, and I think today there’s so much outside pressure on parents to be involved in this, and that, and going here, and going there. There’s not the same time for family togetherness. Especially, I think, to me, I’ve always put a great weight upon the family meal table. That’s always been so important to me. I’m so glad that I have been faithful to that throughout the years, especially as the children were growing, because it was our togetherness.

I believe it was something that cemented us together, because we didn’t only come together and just sit and eat a meal. We came to talk, to discuss, to even debate, even though children would be up on their chairs, waving their fingers, getting their point across! We really discoursed. We really communicated. But, you see, that was better than just going off somewhere. It was cementing us as family. It is so important, I believe.

Zadok: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I love that, because that was our household, too. There might have been missionaries sitting on the floors some of the time. But it was always that discussion! And Mom and Dad were very invested in our lives, making sure it wasn’t a one-sided communication. Not just parents sharing, “OK, go to your room now. OK, clean up the dishes.”

But “What is God speaking to you, Zadok, as a young boy? What is God talking to you?” I love this. I think this is upon the family. It’s transferable, that conquest of seeing God invest, seeing God in small things, and in the big in our lives.

Well, even for example, my family. I can remember almost every day of my life, my mother coming up and saying, “Oh, you’re a world-changer! You can change the world! What’s your plan this week on changing the world? What’s your plan?”

We’d talk to my brothers, my siblings, Rashida or Sharah. “What’s your goal? How are you going to affect history this year?” It was those big, grand, glamorous ideas that sowed in us destiny for not being the average mediocre, or DMR’s as we call them (Daily Minimum Requirement). That was, of course, illegal in our household—the average roadside worker attitude.

I think that’s spiritual, too. Paul doesn’t say, “Oh, well, if we all share the Gospel with a few people.” And then I was sent out to Asia! I went first without asking permission. I went out to Arabia. It was on a purposeful conquest to bring the Gospel to the ends of the earth, rather than just, “Well, it’s in my home, and we’re just going to do whatever.”

You’re raising . . . I say mothers change the world. You are raising dynamite. I was in an airplane flying back from a foreign country, Belize, as a missionary. I’m always excited about world missions, but I’m also excited about the mission of the person in front of me.

We’re flying through the night, and there’s that baby, that one baby on the airplane that’s just screaming his little ears off. I feel sorry because all of our jaws were hurting. I’ve got my stevia gum, and I’m trying to yawn and break the pressure in my ears. It’s a 17-hour flight. This mother is flustered and she’s coddling this little baby, jiggling it up and down.

I could see the first five people around here were just quite irritated. It was like a wave. The five people around her were pretending to not notice and they’re looking away. Then, as you get farther and farther away from the mother, people are louder and louder about their irritation of the baby because the mom’s not going to hear and not going to be offended. “Man, I wish that baby would shut up!” It's just that kind of irritation. Of course, no one enjoys hearing constant screaming, but the honest answer is, all of us were babies in that plane at one point. All of us were that baby screaming.

So, afterward, we arrive, we land, everyone is getting up, and this mother is four aisles ahead of me. I quickly slip up and I say, “Excuse me.” She looks at me like, “Oh, here it goes. I’m going to get ratted out.” I said, “Listen, thank you so much for being a mother. Mothers change the world. I want to tell you something.” And she looked at me, very stern-like, because I said it very seriously.

I said, “You know, one of my friends is a nuclear scientist and he works in a power plant in California. He spent his whole life, years and years, over 14 years, I believe, in college, learning nuclear science. He’s got in degrees in abstract math. He’s a genius” I said. “And then there are these scientists, so they built these nuclear weapons, and these nuclear reactors that go on to power whole states and society. They’ve spent their whole life locked away in a little cubicle doing mathematics.

“And then there are mothers, just like you, who spend their whole life, not, shall we say, locked away, but shall we say, pulled away from normal society to build one nuclear reactor, a human being.” And I quoted her a Scripture. I didn’t give her the reference because I wasn’t preaching. I was just encouraging.

I said, “You know, the Bible says to shine light in a crooked and perverse generation.” I said, “You’re creating a weapon called a human being, which will shine like a bright light in this crooked, broken society, and will carry out those implanted things, those destinies that you get to sow.”

I think so many parents, like you said for so many years, Nana. People think children just come and go. And that’s not the truth. They come, they get built, and then they get launched like an arrow. And unless we seize that opportunity to build them with our words then they will just continue to indecisively choose their destiny We’re here for a vapor. So, I think the sooner we can instill that, the better.

Nancy: Amen! And what did the lady say?

Zadok: Oh, she was actually totally speechless. She’s like, “Uh . . . thank you!” [laughter]

Nancy: Well, our time is gone. Thank you so much, Zadok for joining us today. It’s been a good time together, hasn’t it? And we’re over time, but you wanted to say one more thing.

Zadok: I wanted to say, this is the first time I’ve ever sat in on a podcast you’ve done. It’s like a woman’s podcast. I was like, “Oh, oh!” But, no, it’s good. You’re amazing, Nana. Love you.

Nancy: Oh, well. I hope, and I know you’ve been blessed. Let’s pray together, shall we?

“Father, I thank You that we have an inspired one another again today in our great commission and calling of motherhood. I ask, Lord, for Your anointing to fall on every mother, Lord, today.

That they will see, Father, that it’s not an insignificant thing to train a life that You have given and put into their hands. Lord God, it is a powerful thing, and I pray that, Lord, You will pour out Your Spirit upon them, and Your wisdom, and Your anointing, and You will give them a new vision for, Lord, imparting, and inspiring, and commanding Your ways into every one of their children, praying destiny into them, Father. I ask it in the Name of Jesus. Amen.”
