A Mother of Faith

I) Introduction

II) A mother knows her children’s problems

(V. 21-23)

Many mothers have problems in the world

some things about this mother

she was a Canaanite

(A Greek by Culture)

Most likely a pagan worshipper

Her greatest problem was her daughter

All other problems she faced were small compared to her daughter

When a child is threatened, mothers react!

Her daughter was possessed by a demon

In our culture we don’t believe in demons

The greatest lie the Devil tells is “I don’t exist”

That is the importance of praying for our children!

III) A mother remains persistent in prayer. (V. 22-27)

She will come to Jesus with her problems

She believes all there is about Jesus

She believes he is God

She trust in his power to heal

she trust in his power to save

Even though many may want you to seek other ways

she believes in Jesus 1st

Regardless of discouragement

she worships

she prays

She endures testing of her faith

IV) She receives a promise from the Lord!

“Whatever is ask in my name...”

Children are saved through faith!

V) Conclusion

The world is changed by women of faith!
