Free Mothers

Free Mothers Galatians 4:21-31NLT

What makes a mother free? Free like a family executing their carefully planned escape at midnight, dashing for the boarder… A man standing outside prison walls, gulping fresh air, awash in the new sun… A young woman with every trace of the ravaging drug gone from her system….They are free!

So what makes a mother free? With a fresh anticipation mothers can begin life brand-new. Fresh. Filled with, truth. Love. Integrity.

Remember, 1 Corinthians 5:17AMP Therefore if anyone is in Christ [that is, grafted in, joined to Him by faith in Him as Savior], he is a new creature [reborn and renewed by the Holy Spirit]; the old things [the previous moral and spiritual condition] have passed away. Behold, new things have come [because spiritual awakening brings a new life].

Free mothers walk and live in the rescuing power of God. Free mothers live free. Free mothers live fresh and new. Free mothers believe even in the wilderness. Believe in the dry times.

Free mothers choose, faith and grace over law, works, flesh and sin.

A free mother comes to realize that, “only Jesus makes her perfect!” P.H

It’s important to remember what an allegory means. It’s a story, poem, or picture that can be interpreted to reveal a hidden meaning, typically a moral or political one: "Pilgrim's Progress is an allegory of the spiritual journey"

Therefore the Apostle Paul gives us two allegories the first:

Galatians 4:21-27NLT  Tell me, you who want to live under the law, do you know what the law actually says? 22 The Scriptures say that Abraham had two sons, one from his slave wife and one from his freeborn wife. 23 The son of the slave wife was born in a human attempt to bring about the fulfillment of God’s promise. But the son of the freeborn wife was born as God’s own fulfillment of his promise. 24 These two women serve as an illustration of God’s two covenants. The first woman, Hagar, represents Mount Sinai where people received the law that enslaved them. 25 And now Jerusalem is just like Mount Sinai in Arabia, because she and her children live in slavery to the law. 26 But the other woman, Sarah, represents the heavenly Jerusalem. She is the free woman, and she is our mother. 27 As Isaiah said, “Rejoice, O childless woman, you who have never given birth! Break into a joyful shout, you who have never been in labor!?For the desolate woman now has more children than the woman who lives with her husband!”

We read that Abraham had two sons, first, from his slave wife, Hager. Secondly, of his free woman, Sarah.

Notice Sarah, wasn’t just a free mother, but Sarah is called, “the free woman.”

I realize this, “You’ve got to be a free woman before you can be a free mother!” P.H

Like Bishop TD Jakes prophesied over millions of women, “Woman thou aren’t lose!”

Listen, The first slave wife/slave mother, Hager, was a human attempt to bring about the fulfillment of God’s promise.

Human attempts always equal Hager. Human attempts equal the law. It’s never enough; Human attempts never fulfills God’s promises.

Here's a little secret, we are saved by faith through the blood of Jesus. Moreover, when this meta-morphias transpires, when we accept Jesus as our Savior, God forgives all our sins: past, present, and future. P.H

1 John 2:2ESV He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world.

ILL. Get a thin blanket, cover myself. “Its too good to be true, but Forgiveness comes as a total package; God does not forgive us partially, but wholly!”

As a woman/mother, Sarah’s seed, you aren’t just human, Mothers are new. New creations. Fresh. Anointed, Saved by the blood! And that’s a mothers confession.

In, Hebrews 10:35 — God’s strong warning that urges us never to quit and never to give up.

This verse says, “Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.”

This ‘casting’ is the same thing as tossing a ball, or a rock. -It’s getting rid of it. Hear me, never discard your confidence nor your confession! -You have to believe (Know) you are new!

New Mothers walk in the supernatural, they walk by faith. This new mother comes to realize that, “the just shall live by faith.”

In Romans 4:20-22AMP But he (Abraham) did not doubt or waver in unbelief concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong and empowered by faith, giving glory to God, 21 being fully convinced that God had the power to do what He had promised. 22 Therefore his faith was credited to him as righteousness (right standing with God).

“Your faith credits you righteous!” P.H

This allegorical interpretation of Abraham and his difficulties with his two wives, one of a slave wife, Hager, and the other, the free wife named, Sarah.
