For taking your time to study remain blessed.
January Friday 11th
TOPIC: WOMEN ARE ALSO CALLED INTO MINISTRY
TEXT: Judges 4:4-5
KEY VERSE: Jeremiah 3:15 “And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.”
The call into ministry is not gender-specific. The woman is called just as the man without any limitation in the service of God. As pastors, women can even administer church discipline to the erring ones. Deborah, Huldah were women pastors by divine call. She must do it without fear of person or tradition of men. Yet she must not become proud or usurp the authority of man in the church (Philippians 2:3). God ministers to the need of His people using both men and women ministers. Mariam was a prophetess who spoke of God to men (Numbers 12:1-2; Micah 6:3-4). Deborah was also a prophetess and judge in Israel. Both men and women came to Deborah for judgment and she taught them the truth, the word of God and word of righteousness. Huldah is another Old Testament prophetess (2 Chronicles 34:21-28).
The woman ministry is superior to marriage. Submission to husband is not a reason to prevent you from serving God who owns your soul. Priscilla submitted to her husband yet served God well. Same goes for Deborah and Huldah. God has given you ministry but He wants holiness in you. Holiness is the qualification for entering heaven, not Christian service. Women ministers that reject teachings on adornments, makeups etc. are serving God quite alright but heaven is not for them. Discharge your duty as a Christian wife to your husband otherwise you forfeit heaven. Some people say you must be ordained to operate in office. It is a lie. They want to pour oil on your head. It is all a lie. Jesus says you are already ordained to preach this gospel and fulfil your calling. John 15:16 “Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.” You already have anointing that abides in you. That's your ordination. 1 John 2:27, “But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.
Thought for the day: Woman! Rise up and fulfill destiny in the service of God.
Song for the day: Isaiah heard the voice of the Lord, and he say here am I send me.
Bible reading for the day: Genesis 27-28; Matthew 9:18-38
