A Christian Mother's CreedSample

I will be Vigilant, Prayerful, and I will not be ignorant of the Enemy’s Schemes.

This declaration is a commitment to be on guard and not give in to prayerlessness. The word, vigilant also means being sensitive, alert, and watchful. One must be awake to do these things. This reminds me of guard duty in the military. Soldiers are always on guard 24 hours all year round, it does not matter if the main gate to the base is guarded, every unit has soldiers on guard. In case the enemy manages to break through one level of security, the enemy would have to break through another level of security and on and on. The enemy would need to partner with a lot of soldiers to really wreak havoc on a military base. It would surely be a difficult task to get many soldiers to betray their command or nation.

This declaration is a commitment to not give in to prayerlessness. The Bible urges us to pray without ceasing. Prayer is communication with God. We talk to God and allow Him to intervene in everything we present to Him. In prayer, we build up our faith (Jude 1:20).  Consistently praying for ourselves, our marriage, children, children’s schools, local communities, local churches, the Church, nations, those in authority, and everything keeps us on the offensive against the enemy’s agenda for our children. 

Questions for Reflection: Am I praying daily? What can I do to create more time for prayer? 

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank you for the privilege to communicate with You. Renew an excitement for prayer in me. I surrender all to you. In Jesus name. 

The declarations in this plan are prophetic words. The power of confession and your alliance with God will call forth the child you desire, the mother you want to become, and empower you to attain mastery of the declarations in The Christian Mother’s Creed.  When we make declarations, we call forth those things that be not as though they were, and we will ultimately see them manifest. We will ultimately become what we declare over our lives
