A Mother's Prayer Cover

Oral Roberts

As a teenager, I told my parents I was leaving home and going out on my own. Some young men might be ready to leave home at that age, but I was leaving with the spirit and attitude of a runaway. By leaving, I was declaring my intention to run my life according to my own desires instead of God's or my parents'.

Mama put her arms around me and kissed me. She wet my face with her tears. She said, "Oral, I'm putting a covering of prayer over you. Every night I'll be praying. You'll never get away from my prayers."

For five months Mama walked the floor of our little house and called out my name to the Lord. "God, bring him home at any cost," she prayed. The night I collapsed during a basketball tournament and fell unconscious, hemorrhaging from the mouth, my coach brought me home and laid me on my parents' bed. She looked at me and said, "Oral, I didn't know the price would be so great."

Even when the doctors told Mama that I had tuberculosis...even as I wasted away, coughing and bleeding. . . she kept a prayer cover over my life. She literally refused to quit praying. She prayed over me every day until I was saved...and then until I was healed...and then until I had fully recovered...and until I began to preach...and for my life and ministry until the day she died!

Mama believed in the power of prayer as much as the psalmist who wrote, I call on you, O God, for you will answer me; give ear to me and hear my prayer (Psalm 17:6 NIV). Are you holding on in prayer for a loved one? Keep raising that prayer cover every day-miracles come through holding-on prayers!

What was shared above really showed how much a mother's love for a child and the power in the prayer a parent can give to a child that bring forth blessings and anointing that changes a person's destiny. Today I also had another sermon shared during Mother's day svc at City Harvest Church by Rev Kong Hee! He shared on one of the Old Testament Mother called Hannah in 1 Sam chapter 1. It is about a godly centered mother who dedicated to God, where she will spend time in the house of God in prayer. She is also dedicated to her husand even though he have multiple wives, she continue to stay faithful and pray with him, as the more the couple pray together, the more they will stay together. Lastly she also dedicated herself to her children. She spend most of her times with young prophet Samuel and Samuel eventually grow up to be a mighty man of God. So today is Mother's day, I really encourage all mothers to be able to be like the above mention mother that really make a differences in their child's lives and also their spiritual walk with God and their husband will continue to grow stronger in deeper love. Hope my mum will be me in Church Svc soon!!! I will be praying for it. By next yr I wan by faith that my wole household will be change...
