You may have wondered what inspired this article? My inspiration came from the movie BREAKTHROUGH. A movie that was Written by @Grant Nieporte and directed by @Rowann Dawson.
This movie is about a boy called John Smith. when Joyce Smith’s adopted son, John, falls through the ice on a frozen lake in Missouri. Trapped underwater for more than 15 minutes, rescuers bring John back to the surface and rush him to the nearest hospital. While doctors fear the worst, the 14-year-old boy continues to fight for his life as Joyce, her husband and their pastor stayed by his bedside and prayed for a miracle.

The amazing part of this movie is that it is a true Story. You can read the true story via the link…. https://www.stltoday.com/lifestyles/health-med-fit/years-ago-a-st-charles-teen-was-under-a-frozen/article_43db7316-908b-5805-86e5-01fdc8eee581.html
Some of us might have watched it before while others are yet to see the movie.

WHY I CHOSE THIS MOVIE?

Irrespective of the fact that John Smith's mother believed in God and had faith without a doubt that her son will be well again but there is something else people didn't get to see. This is Mother's are very powerful!. John Smith wasn't really at his best behavior towards his mother and people around him but irrespective of all that his mother believed in him and knew that her son had a great future and can't die now.
Now what I am trying to say is this, in our society today some mothers call their children all sort of names and you pray and pray for your child but in the deepest part of your hearts, you may have doubts about the child making it probably due to the situation at hand. Some even say negative words about their children. You can read my last article in mind your words via the link..... https://medium.com/@vickyella23/mind-your-words-bb71422b5ebf

LESSONS LEARNED

Mothers have a powerful hold on their children. No matter the situation at hand lets learn to speak positivity into the lives of our kids and pray for them. You might not see an outcome immediately but those kind actions of yours will take that child far. In the movie Breakthrough, irrespective of the fact that all hopes were lost but the mother kept doing one thing, which was speaking positive words into the child's life and even God was moved by how much the mother believed in the child and decided to take action and healed him. I have seen a lot of mothers who say a lot of negativity over their child may be due to something bad. Instead of saying negative things, channel it into prophesying positive things in their lives and you will see how that will touch them to do great things and even God will be pleased with how much you believe and be forced to grant you your heart desires. Hebrews 11:1 tells us that faith is “being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.”
