MOTHERHOOD IS ETERNAL

Motherhood was in the heart of God before the world began. Even before the foundation of the world God planned to send His own beloved Son into the world through the womb of a woman. God speaks about motherhood in His Word before anyone knew anything about motherhood.

God gave the benediction at the first wedding ceremony, "Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, shall cleave unto his wife, and they shall be one flesh" (Genesis 2:24). Where were the mother and father? Were they sitting at the wedding table? No. Adam and Eve had no understanding of a father and mother. But it was in God's heart from eternity and He proclaimed it even before mankind experienced it.

In Genesis 3:20 it says, "And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living." Again, Adam proclaims motherhood before ever Eve was a motherhood. Did he know what he was talking bout? No. Adam was speaking prophetically under the unction of God.

Before motherhood ever came into being, God proclaimed it through Adam: "This is My plan and destiny for my female creation: they shall be mothers."

Embrace your eternal and powerful destiny. It is God's mandate to you.
