Mothers in Zion...
Sis. Barb,
I loved your post as this is a subject dear to my heart! They used to call
praying mothers, grandmothers and others, Mothers in Israel, (the
mothers in the tribes of the children of Israel). I feel they are the same.
Praying mothers for the people of God or praying mothers in the church.
The people of God used to worship in a tabernacle, tents, and the temple.
God dwelled among them, and when Jesus came, He walked with them but
He told his disciples He was with them but He was going to be in them. We
have it so good. We don't have to go to the temple made with hands to
pray or to worship. We ARE the temple of the Living God. Christ in us, the
hope of glory. Today He is in His temple, His people. They can try to tell
God's people they cannot pray, they cannot worship, and the time may
come when we cannot go to a building to meet together to worship Him
in Spirit and in Truth. But as long as the GOD of the temple is in His temple,
(inside us), it won't matter. And as long as there are Mothers In Zion, or
Israel, (God IN His tabernacles, temples, or simply Christ in us, individually
or collectively) He can work. For in Him we live and move and have our
being! Praise His Holy Name!
Blessings,
