Subject:Transformation18:

Triumphant Leadership.

In 2 Corinthians 2:14, the Apostle Paul writes, 

“thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of Him everywhere!”

 What an awesome promise!

This powerful truth brings to mind the inspiring story of Deborah the Prophetess. 

During a time when the oppression of the Canaanites left God’s people demoralized and defeated, God raised Deborah to lead His people into victory.

 Though the men had lost their will to fight, Deborah-both a spiritual and physical warrior-was anointed by God to deliver Israel from their oppressors.

Key Takeaways:

God’s Empowerment: 

Like Gideon and Deborah, God chooses and empowers those whose hearts are devoted to Him, regardless of our self-confidence or worldly status.

Women of Valor: 

If you’ve ever been told that your gender restricts your role, remember Deborah.

 In Psalm 68:11, the original text tells us, “The Lord gives the word; the women who announce the news are a great army.” 

Women, you have a powerful role in proclaiming the Good News and standing strong for your family.

Shared Responsibility: 

It’s not just about one person’s role: if you’re a woman, do not lament over a husband not fulfilling every role. 

Your family is yours too. 

Pray, take action, and refuse to let satanic oppression have a foothold in your home.

Let Us Pray:

Father God, thank You for always leading us to triumph, in every battleground of the mind, the spirit realm, and in all systems of governance. 

Thank You for the resurrection power that vitalizes our mortal bodies. 

We lift up our husbands, sons, brothers, and every male member of our families. 

We command the spirit of heaviness, lethargy, depression, and low self-esteem to leave them now. 

I release to them now, the anointing of Your Spirit to ignite a good work within them, so that they will stand up strong for the job and for their families.

Thank You for all the women in ministry who, through Your guidance and grace, press forward to the mark of the high calling in Jesus Christ’s matchless name.

 Empower us to be like Deborah-bold, victorious, and ever-triumphant in Your name.

In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, we declare victory.

Shalom!
