Fiveamprayer, we have been learning about what Yahweh has purposed for our lives over the last couple of months. This walk or rather our return to our Hebraic roots and mindset, shows us where we missed His measurements. We find that we have indeed in many cases toiled in vain. Striving for man determined purposes which is not the assignment that He, Yahweh has given us. Looking at some unlikely heroes at first glance allows us to see that on this journey if we don't allow for course corrections we will certainly be off course and not end up at the correct destination. We have in the book of Judges, the children of Israel who are in a tough place. This is the time before the kings and after Joshua dies who was the first judge. We meet Deborah a judge who would be met under the palm tree to hearing cases and making decisions, who directs the solider Barak to fight the enemy who had been oppressing the people. As we continue in the text they find that they were not without friends who supported them. Here enters Jael who is a Kenite who took in the fleeing great warrior, Sisera who was loosing the battle against Israel. In what appeared as kindness was feed milk and a blanket to rest and hide from his enemies in Jael's tent. Once he slept upon the ground, she comes up with the tent peg and hammers it through his temples into the ground fast. With the actions of these two women, the children of Israel had peace for 40 years. This is not just a favorable story but one of importance for it is repeated twice. We know when the Bible repeats things it is bringing emphasis to it. When we know and walk in the purpose that we were made and crafted for--our very lives bring Him glory! In our natural understanding it would seem that this could not happen. We know that with Yahweh that all things are possible. Those who have been assigned and sent are already equipped to complete the assignment. Those who come with His word on their lips and heart will not agree nor promote the obsolete practices that have crept in unawares--that is sapping the strength of the community. The breaking of bondage and chains of the man-determined practices that are abominable to Yahweh can not be stomached by those that are aligned for the divine assignment! Walking in His light and allowing that light to shatter and scatter the lies, deceit and darkness that the church has come under the guise of. This liberty of His truth and freedom to obey His instructions will pull the people out of the weary drudges of the past. Standing in the face of any disobedience and will not be moved until the task is complete--this is the position of those aligned for divine assignment.
When we don't know or understand the purpose of a thing, that leads to confusion and abuse of that thing. The shifting of roles, idenities and approved behaviors causes much abuse and confusion. When we go back to the beginning to find the instruction book of how to live and direct our lives we clear up all confusion. There is no more self-defining of ourselves. What does His word say about it? That is the final word and the only word with power to be completed. Women are incubators and will foster and germinate everything that they are given. We had great examples of that from Deborah and Jael in the idea and process that was placed inside of them to being the completed plan 'to birth' at the appropriate time. The glue that holds the family together, the teacher who instructs and cares for her children, the support and guidance for her husband are some of the roles that the woman will walk in during her life. Due to the opinions of many, woman have been misplaced out of Yahweh's plan due to misinterpretation and here comes Abba our Father to let us know that women are important! We, women are apart of His plan! If woman was not necessary or needed--why would He place Adam into a deep sleep and take a rib and craft with His hands the 'help-meet that is suitable for him'? This was not an afterthought! This is a clear plan of purpose that we begin to see in Genesis 3 where the woman and the serpent are to war against each other, her seed crushing it's head and the serpent biting his heel. Know that all things that He has set forth is according to His purpose. Women of Yahweh, walking in the Torah, find the principles to take back the families, communities, churches for the kingdom of Elohim! There is nothing like a mother fighting for her children--that is not a fight that anyone but the mother can win! This instruction is to build up and be strengthened to stand and not move--don't back up, don't turn around. Stand and stand therefore for all that He will do--will be accomplished! As Esther had to stand in the face of her people being taken annihilated and risking her life, approaching the king without permission which is a death sentence without his pardon. What is is that you have to stand and not move on? Where has Yahweh placed you to be a beacon of light, showing His truth? Know that He is sending out others to fight but you are to stand. We don't have to back up--you are a law abiding citizen! The law is not an concern unless you break it--we are following His instructions and they actually support us! Don't you know that when we walk in the Torah we find that the Torah is keeping us--not the other way around!? To hear this teaching again click here.
