Telos: The Fight is Real
‘Undercover Mothers’ reveal how they’re fighting ‘wokeness’ in schools. New York Post (Feb. 2022)
Information
“My mother is my root, my foundation. She planted the seed that I base my life on, and that is the belief that the ability to achieve starts in your mind.” – Michael Jordan
“My doctor told me I would never walk again. My mother told me I would. I believed my mother.” – Wilma Rudolph
“My mother was the most beautiful woman I ever saw. All I am I owe to my mother. I attribute my success in life to the moral, intellectual, and physical education I received from her.” – George Washington
“All that I am, or ever hope to be, I owe to my angel mother.” – Abraham Lincoln
“When your mother asks, ‘Do you want a piece of advice?’ it’s a mere formality. It doesn’t matter if you answer yes or no. You’re going to get it anyway.” – Erma Bombeck
"If at first you don't succeed, try doing it the way mom told you to in the beginning."
“My sister said once: ‘Anything I don’t want Mother to know, I don’t even think of, if she’s in the room.'” – Agatha Christie
“If evolution really works, how come Mothers only have two hands?” – Milton Berle
Inspiration
Then Jesus answered and said to her, “O woman, great is your faith! Let it be to you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that very hour.
I heard a story about a mother who wrote a note to her teen daughter, sharing all the things she admired and loved about her. The daughter kept that note in her wallet for years, pulling it out whenever she needed a reminder of her worth. It's a powerful example of the impact words of affirmation and love from a mother can have on a teenager's life.
Revelation
The Battle is Real!
Application
His Strength!
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.
His Weapons!
Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
The Power of the Declared Word!
His Defeated Enemies!
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
His Ability!
Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
Transformation
The Prophetic Power of Thanksgiving!
praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints—
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;
Of Jeduthun, the sons of Jeduthun: Gedaliah, Zeri, Jeshaiah, Shimei, Hashabiah, and Mattithiah, six, under the direction of their father Jeduthun, who prophesied with a harp to give thanks and to praise the Lord.
