A Mother's Request
from Solid Rock Church Sermons Hosted by Jason Williams
In the Mother’s Day sermon this past Sunday, we looked at the heart behind the mother’s prayer for her children. With good motives, mothers can still miss the will of God for their children. We looked at two examples of mothers praying for their children and the contrast between Hannah's request for a son (1 Samuel 1) and the request of the mother of James and John for her sons (Matthew 20:20-28). From Hannah’s example, we were challenged to see our children as His children, laying our desires before the Lord in submission to His will and trading what we want for our children for what God wants, trusting that his plans are better. Do you ever find yourself insisting on what you want rather than submitting your desires to God? Have you ever had to let go of “good” desires in order to embrace God’s desires for you or for a situation?
