JOCHEBED
: A PORTRAIT OF A GODLY
MOTHER
Slide5Exodus 2:1–10 (ESV)
Slide6If you have been blessed by a godly mother, wonderful
Abraham Lincoln, "
no man is poor who has had a godly mother."
A Spanish proverb, "
An ounce of mother is worth a ton of priest."
"The instruction received at Mother's knee, together with the pious and sweet souvenirs of the fireside, are never effaced entirely from the soul.”
Slide7Jochebed
-
Portrait of one of the best examples
Slide8WE SEE HER CREDENTIALS
An Israelite, one of God's chosen people.
Every mother needs a relationship with the Lord.
Every child deserves a saved, sold out, dedicated mother?
Nothing would make more difference in the lives of our children than having good, godly examples in the home.
Are you saved
Acts 4:12 (ESV) And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”
Slide9II. WE SEE HER COURAGE
The Decree of Pharaoh -
Jochebed
refused to give in to a godless system that would have cost her the life of her son.
Slide10Exodus 1:15–22 (ESV
)
Slide11God give us parents who aren't afraid to take a stand for that which is right in these dark, sinful days!
Demanding more for children than the world
saying,
“Enough is enough, my child is going to learn the way of the Lord!"
People who will declare the same thing Joshua declared for His family,
Josh. 24:15.
Enthusiasm of the youth
Movements that will change society
Slide12III. WE SEE HER CONFIDENCE
Motivated by a strong faith in God’s sovereign will.
Serving the Lord God
Serving her son
Slide13Resist The World
World is crying for the death of her son
Placed her son above the world’s desire
We need parents who will train their children
Slide14Deuteronomy 6:4–9 (ESV)
4 “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. 5 You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. 6 And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. 7 You shall
teach them diligently
to your children, and shall
talk of them
when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. 8 You shall
bind them
as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 9 You shall
write them
on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.
Slide15Release The Child
Took faith to place the child in the river.
The Nile-same instrument that was destroying other lives
Took her hands off of Moses life
Parents have to train their children to be released
Slide16Raise The Child
What did
Jochebed
Do?
What are we teaching our children?
Slide17How To Be A Stupid
Parent
Slide18IV.
WE
SEE HER
CHARITY
Slide19She Gave Of Her Self
Poured out her life into the life of her son
Isn't that what every good mother does for her children?
This is what the heavenly Father has done for each of us!
God gave His Own darling Son to save sinful man.
God gave Heaven's best for earth's worse!
He did that simply because He loves you!
Slide20She Gave Her Son v. 10
Very literally
,
Jochebed
was raising her son to give him to the Lord.
She gave up her son to save her nation, even though she didn't realize all that she was doing
God gave His son for us! When He did, God knew exactly what He was doing.
Slide21Romans 5:8 (ESV)
but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Slide222 Corinthians 5:15 (ESV)
and he died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves but for him who for their sake died and was raised.
V. WE SEE HER COMPENSATION
Her son became a great man of God.
What is a successful parent?
Slide24Jochebed
stands, even after all these years, as a true portrait of a godly mother.
How do I stand up as a parent?
What is your goal as a parent of smaller children?
Has God spoken to you about your relationship with Him?
Do you need to rethink your parenting style?
