“What is a Faithful Mother?”
II Timothy 2:5 Proverbs 20:7 Proverbs 13:24 Proverbs 19:18 Proverbs 22:6
Ephesians 6:1 Deuteronomy 6:3-8 Isaiah 1:19 Malachi 3:10
• Some things Mothers will not say:
“Let me smell your T-shirt, Yes, it’s still good for another week”
“Yes, I use to skip school too”
“Just leave all the lights on, it makes the house more cheerful”
• There are some things that Mothers pass down to their children
• A deposit is made into children by the Mothers
• That’s why women are under so many attacks from the enemy
• A Mother makes either good or bad deposits into her children
• Mothers need to understand that they have a legacy to leave for their children
Priority of a Faithful Mother
• Spiritual –nurture her children with morals, values, and a relationship with Jesus Christ
• Live by Faith – Trusting God - Obeying Him
• Mother of Integrity – Your integrity is always being challenged
• Teach her children the Word of God – Put the Word into your children day and night
• Train her children at home – She teaches them everything they need to know in public

• Teach her children about tithing and giving
• Teach her children obedience Rules or laws of the: Home – School – Church –The land

“Pursue, Overtake, and Recover All”
“Fighting Off Discouragement”
I Samuel 30:1-9 Psalms 42:6, 11
• One of the problems in the church today is - The church has a passive spirit
• God did not save you to just go to church – The church is a filling station
• God gave you the authority in the Name of Jesus - The power in the Blood
• He gave you Dominion – Might – The ability to function in this earth realm
• God gave you armor to function in this hostile world
• There are enemies in the spiritual realm that are fighting against your prosperity: spiritually – physically – mentally – financially – socially
• The enemy is warring against your forward progress
• David was a man after God’s own heart – He was known for war and fighting
• God wants you to be a warrior
• Whether you know it or not – You are under an attack from the enemy
• When you are going through an area that you are being challenged in your walk – You need to ask some questions:
• “Why am I feeling like this?” “Why am I feeling down and out?” “Why do I feel discouraged?” “Why do I feel like giving up?”
• Discouragement is the number one enemy to a believer
• If the devil can make you want to give up – Loose your heart – Loose your courage – You can not do anything
• Discouraged: Being drained of courage – Wanting to give up – Dismayed – Fearful – Depressed – Oppressed – Dishearten – To loose your confidence
• You can not use your faith - When you’re discouraged
• You must keep your eyes fixed toward the hills from which cometh your help
• Because your help cometh from the Lord
• God has given you everything you need to be successful in this earth realm
• You have to exercise your authority
• You can not allow this kingdom to rule your life by what you see or what you hear
• You are a part of a different Kingdom
• You are a new species in Christ Jesus
• Ten things you need to know when you are dealing with the Spirit of Discouragement:
1. Think on what God has done in your life (Exodus 13:3)
2. See God bigger than your problem
3. You have to have faith in what God says (Numbers 23:19)

“Friendship Sunday”
“Confronting the Issue’s”
Proverbs 27:10 Proverbs 27:17
• Sometimes disaster does strike – Situations happens that are out of your control
• Because you have a friend – You don’t even have to go to family members for assistance
• If you have any type of relationship with someone - There will be conflict
• You must be conflict resolution minded in your relationships – You should work through them and not run from them
• Three things you need to know about conflict:
1. Conflicts always have a cure
• There is a resolution, there is peace – There is something that God can bring to cure your marital problems and your interpersonal relationships
2. You can not correct what you are not willing to confront
• Your graduation or you going to the next level will never happen until you confront the situation
3. You can not correct what you are not willing to confront
• You can not help everybody – Even God can not help a person when they are not willing to change
• If the person does not respect the God-Wisdom in you – They will never accept your counsel and you can not help someone who will not receive you
• Here are six Health benefits of Friendship:
1. Increases your sense of belonging and purpose
• The world does everything it can to keep you isolated and separated
2. It boost your happiness
• There are forces fighting against your happiness – God has an antidote called “a friend”
3. Friendship reduces stress
• One of the biggest killers today is stress – Most of the diseases people are receiving is out of stress
4. Improves your self-worth
• A good friend just makes you feel better about your self
5. Decreases the risk of serious Mental Illness
• Psychology Today, states that one out of three people are dealing with some level of Mental Illness – A friend will reduces those issues
•
6. Helps you weather the trauma of Divorce, Serious Illness, Job Lost or Death of a
Loved One
• God designed a full-proof situation to help you through the times when you are hurting the most – God designed friendships
• God has brought friends into your life to help you be a better person
• They have something to add to you – Can you receive it?
• Do you recognize the value your friends are to you?
• The devil fights so hard against you having friendships and relationships
• He does not want you to be sharpened to the level that you can be a serious weapon against the works of the enemy out in the world
• God wants to sharpen you – But it’s not going to be by yourself
• It will be because you learned how to build relationships and listen to them
• God brings you a gift – That gift is called a friend
• You can not get to where you want to go without receiving the wisdom of that friend
• You must come to the place in your life that you recognize the value of friendships
• If you don’t recognize the value or learn to receive wisdom from friendships
• You will always be flipping and flopping in your pursuit of happiness, greatness, and your prosperity – Because you don’t know how to protect your friendships
• There is a connection between friends, a chemistry – An aroma that is released and goes up to God when friends come together
• The same thing happens with churches – God brings you to a church where the “Man of God” can help you
• There is a releasing of the DNA of the “Man of God” into your life – This is all done to help you move up
• Don’t allow the enemy to cause you to get into offense and make you leave the place where you received your DNA
• You must fight off anything that comes against your relationships and friendships

“Having an Aggressive Attitude Toward the Enemy”
Matthew 11:12 Luke 10:19 Acts 10 Genesis 14:14-16 I Samuel 30:1-6
• Many Christians are living a passive lifestyle
• They are praying and asking God to do something - When God has asked them to do something
• God has commanded you to take your authority, your dominion, to use the anointing or the power of God that He has put upon you to make a difference
• There is an area of your life where God expects you as a Christian to be on the attack – To be violent toward what has been happening to you, your health, marriage, family, children, and your finances
• At the name of Jesus – Every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess
• God has given you authority in the heavens and in the earth
• The violent shall take it by force
• Violent: Aggressive – To take power, might, and aggressive authority – Go after it
• You can not allow the enemy to come into your house and attack your family without aggressively dealing with him in that area
• You are called to take care of business – And you must have an aggressive attitude in those areas
• Whatever the enemy is fighting you with – You have the power, or authority to exercise in this earth realm
• Stop sitting around hoping and wishing for something to change in your life
• When you have the authority to change it - You have the authority to make a difference
• Many Christians are praying and putting it in God’s hand to do something
• That is a passive spirit that the enemy loves for Christians to have
• You’re praying for God to do something – When God has already told you what to do
• God wants you to be aggressive in every area of your life
• This is your year to bring back all that was stolen from you
• There were some things stolen from you that you didn’t even know about
• Some things were stolen from your family members who are no longer here
• The rewards are there for you
• Sometimes when you’re going through the tough times and there is no one to stand with you – You can not be mad at the people that will not encourage you
• You must stand anyway and encourage yourself in the Lord your God
• The devil loves to discourage you – He is trying to cause you to give up
• You must believe that God is still on the throne

Ezekiel 44:30 Ezekiel 48:14 Matthew 5:16 Matthew 6:1-4 I Timothy 6:18
• God is the “God of Principle” – Everything He does is through principles
• Many Christians operate outside of the principles – But they want God to bless them according to principles
• Principles are what God uses to bless you
• Principles - When broken, will curse you and bring destruction upon you
• Walking in Love is a principle of God – Yet many Christians walk outside the principle
• So those Christians don’t receive the blessing they want because they choose to hate and hold on to things
• Forgiveness is a principle – People want forgiveness without forgiving
• When you want something to change in your life – Start changing principles in your life
•
• If it has not been working for you – There is something you’re not doing that is holding back the blessing of God in your life
• It is never a God issue – It is a you issue
• Things can always get better - If you get better
• Principles, when activated – Brings a reward with it
• You have the ability to stop a lot of things that’s happening in your life through Firstfruits giving
• That is why the devil will fight against you – He does not want you to be set free from the bondages in your life
• Firstfruits giving will cause the blessing to rest upon your house
• The blessing – God’s breakthrough power working on your behalf
• When you give openly – It shames the devil and brings glory to God
• Alms is giving to the poor
• God is against open giving if giving to the poor - God does not want you to shame the poor
• God did not prosper you to just store it up – He wants you to be a distribution center
• You must be consistent at working the principles – Be the best that you can be at all times
• God wants you to be rich in good works and deeds by doing the principles
• God is trying your heart for the next promotion, breakthrough, and miracle
• God is trying to stir you up – But it is up to you to have a willing heart
• On Firstfruits Sunday, I stand in agreement that God will release three things to you:
1. The spirit of wisdom will be stirred up in you life
2. Favor will flow into your life like a river
3. The spirit of generosity will be upon your life
• During this time when things are upside down and anything that could go wrong, is going wrong
