Salome - Her Promise

Salome - Her Promise

Though the typical woman in biblical times was in a subservient role, her position as a mother is exalted by Scripture. God the Father recognized from the very beginning the important role a mother would play in her children’s lives, and he promised to bless her. Those same promises apply to you today.

Promises in Scripture

God also said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your wife, you are no longer to call her Sarai; her name will be Sarah. I will bless her and will surely give you a son by her. I will bless her so that she will be the mother of nations; kings of peoples will come from her.”

— Genesis 17:15 – 16

He settles the barren woman in her home
as a happy mother of children.

— Psalm 113:9

Her children arise and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her:

“Many women do noble things,
but you surpass them all.”

— Proverbs 31:28 – 29

Can a mother forget the baby at her breast
and have no compassion on the child she has borne?

— Isaiah 49:15
