Today we will be dealing with 20 Bible verses for mother’s Day. Mothers are the vehicle that drove us to the world. They are the channel through which our existence was made manifest. That’s why we must learn to respect and celebrate them.

After Adam and Eve were deceived by the snake. They are the fruit that has been forbidden for them to eat and immediately their senses were opened. They knew they were naked and they made efforts to cover their nakedness. When God came into the garden and learned about what has happened, He cursed Adam and Eve.

Genesis 3:16 To the woman He said:
“I will greatly multiply your sorrow and your conception; In pain, you shall bring forth children; Your desire shall be for your husband, And he shall rule over you.” After what had happened, God cursed the woman saying in pain and sorrow will she bring forth children. And if you have ever taken an honest trip to the labor room, you will understand the exact type of pain God inflicted on the woman.

When we consider the pain and suffering of the mothers over their children, it is only wise that we celebrate them in the best ways that we can. For the celebration of mothers, the scripture offers countless bible verses. We have curated 20 bible verses for mother’s Day.

2. Proverbs 6:20-22

3. Joshua 24:15

4. Proverbs 23:22-25

Give respect to your father and mother, for without them you wouldn’t be here. And don’t neglect them when they grow old. Embrace the truth and hold it close.
