We live in a world that declares weakness as a fault, but isn't it true that our humble admission of our limitations is actually currency in the Kingdom of Heaven, by which God is moved to help His precious daughter!
Today is the perfect time to start displaying your weakness before your family. Display for them what it’s like to live knowing that you are always in the presence of the Great I Am, and what it’s like knowing that Jesus, in all of His perfect, unwavering love, is always interceding and advocating for you!! So, let’s set aside our generational and cultural differences and join together as one generation of women, weak on our knees before the only true source of strength and change. 
Let's set the mood of surrender…
It all starts at home!!! Say I’m sorry. Admit your wrong. Let your husband have the final say. Don’t flip out over the stuff that doesn’t really matter. Don’t idolize your body...constantly talking about how fat you feel. Don’t fixate on how much better work would be if your co-workers weren’t so “stupid”. Stop trash-talking other drivers or service workers. Don’t laugh at the dirty jokes, or post inappropriate things, and be brave enough to turn off the show that doesn’t glorify God. Be wise enough to make Bible study, prayer, and church a non-negotiable part of your family life...to make it more important than your passions and pastimes. I don’t know exactly what that looks like for you, but you know where the Lord has convicted your heart....
This is a measurable way to watch what God will do with reverence and obedience…watch the benefits of a committed relationship with Jesus begin to trickle down. Watch your children be set free from the trappings of gluttony, laziness, perfectionism, superiority, selfishness, idolatry, and self-pity.
Remember that your children experience God through you; therefore, living a life as weak women, submitted to God, will make a way for Him to be known in your home. So today...Let’s stand—or bow together as weak girls—in a united cry for an awakening in our homes... an awakening that gives way to revival, but first that it would start in us!!!
How do we start...First, let's take a moment to truly consider the passage below. Recognize the pattern of the people and the promise of God. Then, pray over your home. Then pray for the women in your church, the women in your area, the women whose eyes will land on this post wherever they are...pray that they will be moved to their knees, and pray that they will rise up and obey...starting today!
