Single Mother's Midrash

Midrash is a Hebrew term that means to investigate or study. This blog is dedicated to encouraging, informing, equipping and educating single mothers' who long to know scriptural basis for everything from discipline to seeking YHUH for a mate. This blog exists to be a blessing to single mothers' via testimony and Scripture regardless of how they came to be single mother's. I joined this website earlier check out EventSpeakers.com

Victorious or Victim

We Christians often refer to ourselves as warriors for Christ or soldiers and that is true but there is a time for a soldier to fire and there are also times when a soldier should fall back!
When I was a child we used to sing a song in church "Victory, victory shall be mine! Victory, victory shall be mine! If I hold my peace and let the Lord fight my battles victory, victory shall be
mine!"  Isaiah 49:25-26 says For I will fight those who fight you and I will save your children I will feed your enemies with their own flesh. They will be drunk with rivers of their own blood. All the world will know that I, the Lord, am your Savior and Redeemer, the Mighty One of Israel." David even cried out, "Plead my cause, O LORD, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me."in Psalm 35:1 and God delivered him.







The best way to misrepresent the Kingdom of the Most High is to get caught up in emotions and react to situations, circumstances and people instead we are to always be prepared to obey the Holy Spirit's leading and when we do so we find that the Holy Spirit is always proactionary never reactionary. Reactionary people predicate their response based on the actions of the person or situation, the power is then given to the other person or situation whereas proactionary people never base their response on what the other person does or the what situation is, the Holy Ghost never gives His power to the situation or the adversary but rather
bases His actions on the Word of God and wisdom. This keeps us from saying things that we later regret or flying into rages, getting into unnecessary altercations and thereby ruining our credibility
as well as hindering the work of love and patience that is in need of development in our lives.






II Corinthians 10:4 says, "For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God
to the pulling down of strong holds". This is why we need to put Luke 18:1 into practice,
And he spoke a parable to them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint; and Ephesians 6:12 reminds us that,"For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places." When we fail to pray and crucify this flesh so that the Holy Spirit can have His way in us, even if we win the battle we could very well lose the war. Your battle is not so much against situations, circumstances or even other people. Your greatest and most important battle isn't even against flesh and blood, so lay aside your ego and surrender your pride at the feet of The Father and learn how to fall back and allow the Holy Spirit lead you into truth that will be the foundation of peace in your life. Yeah, you could give that nasty waitress a piece of your mind but why give her that kind of power? Let the word of your mouth and the meditation of your heart always be acceptable to Him who is your strength and your redeemer! And if people think that you're weak then they have just revealed their weakness and you need to be an example of righteousness to them regardless. You can either be victorious or a victim, it's up to you! The victorious are those who allow God to fight their battles instead of allowing pride to make them feel victimized and defensive. Remember, You are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. I John 4:4

Keeping Up With The Joneses


   Why are you trying to keep up with the Joneses? If the Joneses aren't keeping up with Jesus then everything you do is in vain!

Most of us know people who are very competitive, fully equipped with a "do-you-one-better" attitude. As with most things in life being competitive has its place but when you find yourself being competitive to the point that you major in minor, trivial things such as brand name clothes, expensive cars, fancy houses and essentially living beyond your means then you end up in a vicious cycle of turning over your life to be controlled by someone else other than God. I have seldom met more miserable people than those who value the opinions of others over God's will for their lives to where they are willing to forfeit their birthright in Christ for the filthy lucre and approval of this world.

For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. I Timothy 6:10

Understand that material competitiveness breeds a love of money that is counter-productive to biblical Christianity. If you are busy chasing money and the temporal things that money can buy then you are going to be too preoccupied with this world and what matters to this world to care about the things that truly matter to God!

Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knows that you have need of all these things. Matthew 6:32

Abba will take care of His own! In Jeremiah 1:12, God declares that He is watching over His word to perform it! He will carry out His plans concerning you for in Jeremiah 29:11, God says, "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, said the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end." Isaiah 26:3 says, "You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on you: because he trusts in you." So if you are preoccupied with the world, how can you ever expect to have peace? And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:7

So rest easy and be about the Father's business and not the futile business of  keeping up with the Joneses. If the only thing that you aspire to is being better than your neighbor instead of being an example of holiness to them then you are missing out on the beautiful life that God has for you because you have opted to follow men rather than God.

The Process

Sometimes when we pray, we simply expect to arrive at the blessing,
every blessing with ease but when God answers our prayers, sometimes we can't understand why we had to come the way that we did, through trials, feeling lonely, inadequate and often times even feeling as if God hasn't heard us or worse has abandoned us, until we look up to find ourselves in the midst of the very blessing we prayed for.

Don't get discouraged and never give up! Abba heard you the
first time you prayed. Now is the time of process! Don't resist the process because it is this process that will create the desire for God's will and will put you in position to receive the blessing and grow in your walk with God! The process refines you so that you don't value the blessing more than your relationship with Him!

And When it finally comes to pass no one will be able to take credit for what only God could do!

Isaiah 40:31 But they that wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Galatians 6:9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

II Cor 4:16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day

The process is meant to deaden the flesh so that your walk with Christ will not be impeded by the blessing which is meant to bring Him glory!

Bearing My Cross

It's been almost a year since I started this blog and God has truly blessed my children and me. I've also learned a lot about myself, God and the world around me. Last year I was being broken because of a failed relationship that prior to its failure I was sure would lead to marriage. That didn't happen but what did happen was the crucifixion of my flesh to where I truly understood above all things that nothing matters more than the sovereign will of God. I wrote about the brokenness last year but still had no clue just how awesome God would move on my behalf and that of my children.

We left the midwest for what I believe to be the last time. Sure we'll be back to visit but I know in my spirit that we will not be back there to live. I've learn to pray more fervently for the needs and the salvation of others as well as to sometimes just sit and meditate on the presence of the Lord. This move was one of the most difficult things I've had to do but Abba has always made a way. I realize more than ever that salvation and sanctification are a process and by no means something that just happens immediately because you repeated a prayer at the altar at church. I'm seeing the world with new eyes and hopefully becoming the kind of mother that my children need and deserve. This journey to recapture an intimate knowledge and relationship with God has not perfected me but set me on the path to being perfected in Christ, the culmination of which will not occur until I exit this life.  I am still being broken but it's okay because it makes me desperate for the presence of The Most High. I crave and long for His presence like I never have before.  

Would I still like to get married one day? Sure! But I have also come to a point of accepting whatever is God's will for my life. Christ is my reality. I am dead (dying) to this world and this earthsuit so that I may be known of Him and know Him in a way that draws the people around me to Him. I have been on this journey for sometime and I have reached a point of acquiescence and surrender to Him. Whatever my HaShem, El Elyon, El Shaddai, Abba wants, whatever it pleases Him to do with my life, for this life that I live is not my own, is fine with me. When I was younger I use to hear people say "that if He never does another thing for me, He's already done enough", it sounded silly to me but now I understand. Comprehension of some things only occurs with maturity. I will gracefully in the name of Jesus bear my cross and right now that cross includes being the single mother of two beautiful and intelligent children, running a business, working outside of the home and being a blessing in every way that I can to others.



My life is nothing of what I imagined it would be twenty years or so ago and I have been guilty of beating myself up for making some of the decisions that led me here but then I also realize that God has never failed or forsaken me. I've really been world weary lately. When I see how increasingly godless and twisted the world is becoming, the more that I am sure, absolutely sure that nothing is worth me forfeiting salvation. My desire is to cling to God like never before. Pray for me, my kids and all that God is given me stewardship that He may glorified above all! My ultimate goal is to have my entire life and every aspect of it be an act of worship to the Lord. The joy of the Lord is my strength and I hope it is yours as well!

10 Things Every Christian Single Should Know

10 Things Every Christian Single Should Know

The above link will help any Christian single but particularly the Christian single woman-in-waiting keep everything in its proper perspective. So often we seek to find our worth and our value in this life in another human being but the truth is we need only find ourselves in Christ to know who we truly are as well as our true purpose in this world. We want to thrive and flourish in Christ so that we can be the very best that we can be for Him and His kingdom! While others may try to live their best lives via other futile means, it is imperative that the Christian single's best life is found in Christ. Our allegiance to the Only True and Living God demands that Christ be our reality and that our perception be filtered through the Holy Spirit and not our faltering flesh. Apply these 10 very sound principles in the context of scripture and you will be able to successfully avoid the pitfalls that have tripped up others or may have even been a stumbling block for you at one point. Keep in mind, no matter what...God is faithful and what and who ever He has for you, is for YOU! You are victorious now and always in Christ!

The Importance of Indoctrinating Your Children

 August of last year, 2009 I felt heavy in my spirit to share why it is important for Christians to indoctrinate their children http://mochababybrown.blogspot.com/2009/08/why-you-need-to-be-sure-that-your.html . Since then I have been doing a lot of research on the validity of conspiracy theories regarding the NWO, the illuminati, etc. I must say that I am by nature a cynic and skeptic so when a friend of mine was giving me pointers as to what I should look for regarding this subject matter. I was able to weed through a lot of the babble because you should know that people who don't even believe that Jesus is Yeshua HaMashiach understand that we are on the tail end of the world as we know it. So there are individuals who have valid information but because they are coming at it from a secular and even a humanistic perspective their motives are not like that of a Christian who is warning people so that they get themselves in right standing with Christ as Savior and Lord. Understand that the term "conspiracy theory" has been coined by the elite and used by naive skeptics to marginalize and even vilify those who dare to question the status quo! So as you do objective research you should pray for wisdom so that you are not swept up in heresy or falsehoods.

I have decided to revisit the subject of indoctrinating your children because too many Christians don't want to endure the difficult task of actually being minister and parent to their children but the truth be told if you are a Christian, then you have been called into the ministry and in so doing your first ministry is in the home and to the precious souls of the children that you have been called to lead and steward. This is by no means something to be shrugged off because if you don't indoctrinate your children in the right things, the world is on standby and they will be all to pleased to indoctrinate your children with all kinds of satanic, luciferian and gnostic doctrines not to mention send them subliminal messages that provoke gender confusion, sexual perversion and deviance as well as other anti-Christ philosophies. Ask yourself, "Is it easier to simply teach my child about holiness or is it easier to allow the world through tv, music, movies and video games to indoctrinate my children in doctrines that are contrary to Christianity and watch them suffer for it?" Proverbs 22:8 is clear! We are to train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. Ephesians 6:4 states "And, you fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord." It is imperative that you as a Christian father and/or mother go out of your way to first of all demonstrate what it is to live a godly life. This first point is crucial as I believe that this is the primary reason why a lot of parents don't bother to indoctrinate their children in true Christianity because that might mean that they themselves would have to pull away from the various carnal preoccupations of the world. Unfortunately we live in that era where people want to get as close to the world and its ways and not become too radical for Christ because then they would have to suffer as most true Christians do, as an outcast! Who wants to be an outcast? But Matthew 10:37-39 says "He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.  And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it."

Do you think God gave you those children as your own vain possession to raise as you please? You will have to give an account to God for how you've raised your children! At least if you raise them and train them in the ways of godliness and are consistent in demonstrating the love of God to them and before them, they won't be able to lay their sin at your feet and their blood will not be on your hands. You will be able to rest assured that you've done absolutely everything you possibly could to lead your children to Christ. Everyone will have to stand to give account for what they have done in this life individually however why make your children's journey through life more difficult because you have failed to equip them against satanic attack and doctrines taught by demons because you'd rather spend time doing you and letting the tv or video games babysit them than to eat dinner with them, read to them, read the Bible to them and talk to them! The public school system and the entertainment industry are there to do what you are not willing to do and once they have captivated your child's heart, soul and mind how will you get it back? Do you even know what your children are watching?





You may look at the video and the link that I've provided and say to yourself, "Some of those are Christian symbols." or you may say, "Everyone who has the one eye or gives the horned hand gesture is not luciferian." And you maybe right but there is a difference between your average schmo giving the horned hand gesture and a celebrity or politician giving that gesture. Understand that the NWO is using the entertainment industry to spread it's doctrine and many of you and your children's favorite entertainers are being used as pawns to spread it. Many rappers such as Rick Ross have rapped about how they love to be underestimated and thought too stupid to know the meaning of the masonic gestures and symbols that he uses. Secular music has for decades been set up lyrically and rhythmically to enchant as in cast a spell. The elite are counting on you to do one of two things: deny that there is anything going on; think that celebrities are too dumb and stupid to know what they are doing or they want you to be so overly influenced by the notoriety and fame of these celebrities and other respectable influentials that you will defend and even emulate what they are doing.

Once you become a parent, you are responsible for what that child consumes through their senses and if you neglect to indoctrinate your children in the knowledge and ways of God, you are by default opting to allow the world to teach them and indoctrinate them in ways that are harmful to their young impressionable souls. Read the Bible to your children, take your children to church with you and if there is a children's church or Sunday school you should be able to go home and elaborate on what they were taught. Have devotions with your children, eat dinner at the table with your children. Even if you have to schedule family meetings, get together with your kids and talk to them so that they know that they are loved and that they are a priority in your life. If you are a single parent or if your home has both parents working, it will be a little more difficult but the alternative is far more time consuming. Don't turn a blind eye or a deaf ear because your responsibility as a parent is to raise up children who will be able to establish an intimate relationship with Jesus without having to get their behinds kicked or their souls damaged by the world!

Christians need to be raising their children to be satan's greatest enemy instead of his ally or sympathizer!
