Judges 4:7-9
New Living Translation (NLT)
7 And I
will call out Sisera, commander of Jabin’s army, along with his chariots and
warriors, to the Kishon River. There I will give you victory over
him.”
8 Barak told her, “I will go, but only if you go with me.”
9 “Very well,” she replied, “I will go with you. But you will receive no honor in this venture, for the Lord’s victory over Sisera will be at the hands of a woman.” So Deborah went with Barak to Kedesh.
What type of woman do you want to be?
The normal or the exception...
Deborah was the exception to the Rule, she was a brave leader, a warrior of her time!
She inspires us to act with authority, live without fear and listen to God for his wisdom!
This is no lady for the feint hearted, she was bold and ready for action! People admired her and came to her palm tree for council.
What would it look like to be a woman without fear, what would the world look like if woman stood in the gap and took up the seat of courage? How much more beautiful can a woman be, who is powerful yet with such grace and poise!
The story of Deborah is a tale about a woman who was aligned with God and served His will with fierce determination. She stood her ground as a leader! If woman could be this strong, how strong would her man have to be? In order to lead her, he would have to be twice as brave and strong in order to be worthy of submission by such a woman.
Living courageously, with no fear!
