Who is a woman of God and what is her
rightful position? Women of God are responsible for an enviable position in God’s
kingdom, of which they will give account of later to God. You will surely see
good days when you obey God’s command.
Rise up, you women who
are at ease! Hear my [Isaiah’s] voice, you confident and careless daughters!
Listen to what I am saying! In little more than a year you will be shaken with
anxiety, you careless and complacent women; for the vintage will fail, and the
ingathering will not come. Tremble, you women who are at ease! Shudder with
fear, you complacent ones! Strip yourselves bare and gird sackcloth upon your
loins [in grief]! – Isaiah 32:9-11 (AMP)
You are to wake up from slumber and get
on your knees, if you are to continue to see good days in future. Your today is
as a result of the prayers you prayed or did not pray yesterday; and your
tomorrow will be a result of prayers prayed or not prayed today.
Who is a woman of God?
But to as many as did
receive and welcome Him, He gave the authority (power, privilege, right) to
become the children of God, that is, to those who believe in (adhere to, trust
in, and rely on) His name – John 1:12 (AMP)
We can deduce from the
above scripture that a woman of God is a woman who loves God, has received
Jesus as her personal saviour and obeys all His commands, both the written word
of God and the personal instructions from God.
In addition, God is her
number one priority: every other thing is secondary. Her life is centred on
God. Also, she loves people and shows it by her actions. Furthermore, she lives
a sacrificial life.
What is the rightful position to take?
Based on today’s text
(Isaiah 32: 9-20), the rightful position to take is “on your knees.” It is a
position you must maintain if you want to see good days all your life, in your
family, church or nation.
You are to arise and take
the position of a diligent prayer warrior. Otherwise, the forces of darkness
will have a free day causing havoc within your territory: strife, division,
sickness and diseases, poverty, and abominable occurrences will come like
bandits. Read more...
