Not the kind who waits for permission or polishes herself to fit into church culture. She’s raw. She came to the forefront and basically said, “I’m just going to be me.” No apologies. No edits. Just pure anointing.
That’s matriarch energy.
Marching to the Beat of Heaven, Not Culture
Let’s talk reproduction for a minute — not just physical children, but vision, character, ministry, and legacy. A matriarch is called to multiply. To take what God has placed inside her and bring it forth, no matter what it costs.
And yes, sometimes she has to clone it.
Not in the scientific sense.
In the spiritual sense.
To clone in this context means to duplicate the essence of who you are — to replicate your values, your vision, your faith, and your impact in the next person, the next project, or the next generation.
Sarah Didn’t Wait on a Perfect Process
Let’s look at Sarah, the wife of Abraham. God told her that she would be the mother of nations, but years went by and her womb remained empty. What did she do? She took matters into her own hands (Genesis 16). She gave Hagar to Abraham so a child could be born. Was it messy? Yes. But it was also a reminder that matriarchs don’t sit back while promises decay. She refused to let the word over her house return void. Even in imperfection, she acted in faith — because a matriarch knows how to move when it’s time to multiply.
Rachel & Leah: Reproducing in Competition and Pain
Then there’s Rachel and Leah, two sisters married to the same man, Jacob (Genesis 29–30). Leah birthed multiple sons while Rachel remained barren. Out of desperation, Rachel gave her servant Bilhah to Jacob. Leah responded with the same move, giving her maid Zilpah. Now again, we’re not endorsing the method — but we’re highlighting the mentality.
The mandate to reproduce was so deeply woven into their identity as women and future matriarchs of Israel, they couldn’t rest until their line was extended. Rachel even said in Genesis 30:1,
“Give me children, or I’ll die!”
A dramatic cry, yes — but one that shows how much reproduction was tied to identity and legacy in that time. And it still is today, though we often birth through purpose, calling, and spiritual motherhood rather than physical children alone.
Naomi Was Cloned Through Loyalty
Now let’s talk about Naomi — one of my favorite matriarchs. She lost everything: her husband, her sons, her hope. She told people, “Don’t call me Naomi, call me Mara — bitter” (Ruth 1:20). But God wasn’t done with her story. Ruth, her daughter-in-law, clung to her, followed her back to Bethlehem, and eventually married Boaz. Ruth gave birth to Obed, and the women of the town said:
“Naomi has a son!” (Ruth 4:17)
Wait… what? Naomi didn’t birth him biologically. But she birthed him through mentorship, presence, and spiritual legacy.
That’s cloning.
That’s spiritual reproduction.
That’s matriarchal power.
What’s the Modern Takeaway?
A true matriarch in today’s world:
-
Doesn’t wait to be given permission to build.
-
Understands that her voice is her power.
-
Sees spiritual daughters and sons as extensions of her womb.
-
Multiplies not just money or status, but faith, wisdom, healing, and strength.
-
Raises people up with the same fire and flavor God placed in her.
She mentors. She disciples. She teaches. She leaves a mark that outlives her name.
Whether you’re raising children, leading a community, launching a business, or discipling other women, you are cloning yourself every time you lead with intention and integrity. And like Le’Andria, you don’t have to change who you are to fit some outdated mold of womanhood. You can lead in your truth, in your scars, in your fullness.
You Are a Walking Blueprint
You are a living, breathing blueprint for legacy. Every word you speak, every boundary you set, every person you pour into — that’s you cloning what God has placed in you. So stop saying you’re stuck or unqualified. You are a matriarch-in-motion.
And remember:
Matriarchs don’t just birth babies.
They birth nations, birth movements, birth culture, and birth change.
Reflect & Respond:
If you’ve been silent, speak.
If you’ve been hidden, rise.
If you’ve been doubting, trust.
Because a true matriarch doesn’t wait for the perfect moment.
She moves, multiplies, and makes room for what God promised — even if she has to clone it.
