God Is Like A Mother Sermon
Listen to God Is Like A Mother Sermon on my Sound Cloud Channel Below:
God Is Like A Mother
Mothers are nurturers. Mothers care for children and other people. When you are a child, mothers make you feel safe and comforted.
Alyssa Morauske studied Psychology and Trauma Exposure. A key principle is how a child builds attachment:
1. Baby Has A Need
2. Baby Cries
3. Baby’s Need Is Met By Care Giver
4. Baby Develops Trust
Turn in your Bible to Isaiah 51:12
Isaiah 51:12
I, even I, am He who comforts you.
Who are you that you should be afraid
Of a man who will die,
And of the son of a man who will be made like grass?
In the Bible, there are verses that show the Building Attachment principle.
1. Matthew 6:8 – Baby Has A Need
Matthew 6:8
Therefore do not be like them. For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him.
2. Psalm 34:17 – Baby Cries
Psalm 34:17
The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears,
And delivers them out of all their troubles.
3. Philippians 4:19 – Need Met By Care Giver
Philippians 4:19
And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
4. Psalm 9:10 – Trust Develops
Psalm 9:10
And those who know Your name will put their trust in You;
For You, Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You.
Psalm 23 is one of the most comforting chapters of the Bible.
The Lord the Shepherd of His People
A Psalm of David.
Psalm 23
The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
3 He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name’s sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup runs over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life;
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord
Forever.
In Psalm 23, we see what God’s Comfort Is.
Verse 1 is about Provision.
Verse 2 is about Attentive.
Verse 3 is about Being Present.
Verse 4 Part A is about Being Reliable.
Verse 4 Part B is about Trust.
Verse 5 Part A is about Realism Or Reality.
Verse 5 Part B is about Satisfaction.
Verse 6 is about God’s Continual Pursuit Of Us.
Turn in your Bibles to 2 Corinthians 1:3-4.
2 Corinthians 1:3-4
Comfort in Suffering
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
God designed humans to share comfort and peace with each other.
Turn in your Bibles to Ephesians 6:15.
Ephesians 6:15
And having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace.
Now turn to Isaiah 52:7.
Isaiah 52:7
How beautiful upon the mountains
Are the feet of him who brings good news,
Who proclaims peace,
Who brings glad tidings of good things,
Who proclaims salvation,
Who says to Zion,
“Your God reigns!”
We can see that God blesses the feet of people that go and share God’s Peace with other people.
Who does God want you to comfort this week?
Is there someone in need where you work?
Is there someone at home that needs help?
Is there a neighbor that is having a difficult time?
Turn in your Bible to Colossians 4:3
Colossians 4:3
Meanwhile praying also for us, that God would open to us a door for the word, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in chains.
