“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9

Mama, in Christ, you are stronger than you think. The heavenly power of the Holy Spirit runs through your entire being. You are the temple of the Holy Spirit- the most powerful power source this world (or any other) has ever known.

When Jesus rose from the dead, He not only came back to life but also overcame every power of evil and principality that could ever come against you and your family. You are supremely protected and have been given authority in the mighty Name of Jesus to trample on any evil that might come your way and try to attack.

There is no need to fear any demonic forces out to get you or your kids; there is no need to fear the present or the future. The time is now to stand up and be strong and courageous in the Lord.

The world needs more Christian moms who will stand up and claim territory for the Kingdom of God.

We need more moms who will ask God to give them everywhere their feet touch as ground for Jesus Christ- moms who will boldly declare the Word of God over themselves, their marriage, their children, homes, schools, communities, cities, states, and countries for the Lord, and stand on the promises given to Moses and Joshua long ago as a foretaste of what we have now as Christians. We can take ground from the enemy for Jesus; all is not lost in this world; with Jesus, we always have hope and with Him, ALL things are possible.

So stand in your God-given authority today, Mama. Be strong. Don’t back down or get into fear. The Lord is with you AND in you.

Pray this with me…

“Lord, help me to be strong and courageous, knowing the Lord my God will go with me wherever I go.”

Now, go out into your world and claim your ground as belonging to Jesus. Speak out the Name of Jesus and walk confidently, knowing you will reclaim what belongs to Him. The devil owns none of God’s property; he’s just a squatter until we come along and kick him out in Jesus’ Name.

I am praying for you! You and Jesus got this!

With much love,

Mama Deb and the Help Club for Moms Team

Deb Weakly

Co-founder at Help Club for Moms

My name is Deb Weakly and I helped create the Help Club for Moms with one goal in mind: to create a community in which moms help moms to know the love of Christ. My own childhood was difficult and filled with sadness. I didn’t grow up in a Christian home, so when I became a Christian (and soon after, a mom), I had no idea what I was doing; I didn’t know what it meant to raise Christ-centered kids, but I so desperately wanted to learn.

I remember going into my daughter's room night after night and kneeling beside her bed and crying my heart out to God because I didn’t know how to be a Christian mom; I felt like I had no idea what I was doing. You know what? God is so faithful! He answered me and simply said, “Spend time with me, Deb.” And so I did. I began arising 15-30 minutes earlier each day so I could read my Bible and pray, and plan out my day with my family.

If there was one thing I would love to share with you is that God is personal and loves you as you are. You don’t have to be perfect to be loved by our amazing God! Come as you are! His loving presence can be practically known and experienced. He is not a God who is far away, He is near and easily found. He longs for you to come to Him!

Randy and I have been married for 33 years and we have two grown children, Christie, and Jack, and one answer to prayer son-in-law named Alex. And now I get to be a Gigi to my sweet little grandbabies, Aspen and Skylar, and Piper. Yay!
