Course 122: Women in Ministry - Lesson #7

 

What are peculiar challenges and weaknesses which women in ministry must recognize and deal with at the cross to ensure the fullness of spiritual liberty?

 

1. The challenge to understand and remain spiritual beings 24/7

This challenge is real and yet achievable. At the centre of the Kingdom message is that we are translated from the Kingdom of darkness and Satan and conveyed into the Kingdom of Christ. Colossians 1:13. The power of Satan and sin over the lives of saints was broken at Calvary. For those who will accept the sacrifice of Jesus as All sufficient and by faith walk in the reality of their liberty, with their minds renewed by constant study, meditation and practice of the Word, such people can live victorious Christian lives that are spiritual - anywhere and everywhere. John 1:12; John 8:32, 26.

 

A female minister can remain spiritual on and off the pulpit because she is righteous and not a sinner any more by the new nature. She cannot afford to put on holiness on the pulpit and switch off when she is performing her duties as a wife, mother, civil/public servant or market place minister. That will lead to hypocrisy. Any weakness should be acknowledged, confessed and rejected. Proverbs 28:13.

 

2. The challenge of submitting to husbands in the home and exercising the authority of the office Christ has called them to in ministry

 

Marriage is a solemn choice. Women can certainly fulfil their ministries without marriage! If they choose to marry, they must know that they open themselves up to another law which is sure and certain: the law of relationships with their own husbands. Clearly articulated without equivocation, the law has these to say:

  • A married woman's first covering is her husband. This precedes the covering of her pastor, overseer or indeed anyone else. As a matter of fact, even Christ Himself recognizes this shift in a woman's priority when she marries! 1 Corinthians 11: 1 - 16
  • A wife therefore has as a chief duty, engaging in every lawful activity to please her own husband. This very strange truth is articulated in 1 Corinthians 7: 3-6, 10,11, 33,34,39; Genesis 3: 16.
  • A wife is charged to submit to her own husband, as to the Lord. Ephesians 5:22-24; Colossians 3:18; 1 Peter 3: 1-6. Submission is not weakness but rather a wilful surrender of one's own wisdom, strength and ability in respect of God and the husband. Even if the man is an idiot, unbeliever, in addictive behaviour, the woman who willingly went into marriage is required not to despise but to receive and honour him! Ephesians 5: 22-24; 1 Peter 3: 1-6. By so doing, a woman can reflect Christ so much so that the unbelieving husband can be converted.

Course 122: Women in Ministry - Lesson #6 

Constraints to women in ministry

 

There are many constraints to women ministry which are worthy of consideration. The key ones can be broadly summed up as follows:

 

1.      Opposition by Satan, the arch foe of womanhood

It is evident from the account of the fall of man in Genesis 3 that Satan deliberately targeted Eve because he must have seen a tendency for her to yearn for colourful and exotic things and also act independent of her husband, given by God as a covering. Unfortunately, this weakness has subsisted till today, even among women who are redeemed by the Blood of the Lamb and filled with the Holy Spirit. As it was with Eve, so shall it be with any woman in ministry whose soul yearns for things that are "forbidden". The Lord makes it clear from a careful comparison of these scriptures that Satan has a central strategy of making saints to miss God by offering them what they can see, smell, desire and be special: Genesis 3:1-6(Temptation of Adam & Eve);  Matthew 4: 1- 11(Temptation of Jesus) and 1 John 2: 15-17( the core tools Satan uses to tempt saints). That is why the charge to be separate from the world and its attractions/dainties must be taken seriously by any woman or man who wants to serve God and His saints acceptably. 2 Corinthians 6: 14 - 18; Revelation 18:4.

 

It is the role of every woman in ministry to guard her heart least Satan tugs it away from a God centred pose. What to eat, what to wear and look special, what perfume to spray on, what will make heads turn and cause men to grovel has always been a chief strategy of Satan to unhook the hearts of women in ministry away from Christ. When a woman of God begins to look to Hollywood for her dress sense; when a woman of God begins to be overly concerned with impression she will make on television audiences and those who will watch the video, her heart inclination can focus more on what to wear and how to make up so much so that waiting on the Lord to receive a fresh word for the people becomes a secondary consideration. Because the anointing of God is without repentance and the name of Jesus has power in itself to deliver miracles, such a backslider in heart can still manifest the Charismatic gifts, even though her heart is far away!  Prating over the stage, showing off her figure and becoming, so to say, a "superstar" may cause such a minister to turn aside into vain jangling.

Course 122: Women in Ministry - Lesson #5:

  

For the hard of hearing: The Order of Melchisedek replaced The Levitical Order!

 

For the hard of hearing, a recap of what we have downloaded so far will not hurt. The sum of the thesis so far is this: the Old Levitical priesthood which was essentially an exclusive caste limited to the sons of Aaron was valid only as far as the Old Covenant went. The Old Covenant was a shadow of better things to come. When Christ Jesus, the reality of all the types, symbols and shadows of the old order came to earth, He was anointed to fulfil them in every respect! As He fulfilled the righteous demand of the Law concerning sin, it was meet that He be the Lamb of God on who the sins of the whole world from Adam to the very last generation was cast upon.

 

In Him is the only valid life acceptable to God. As He instituted the Communion and decreed its regular performance, He announced the New Covenant in His own blood. That New Covenant was not just based on better promises; it was to be mediated by a new priesthood. The writer of the Book of Hebrews took time in an extensive stretch of the Holy Writ to show that Jesus was not qualified under the Old Covenant to be a priest since He was born of the tribe of Judah. So Jesus became a priest, not after the Levitical order but after the Order of Melchisedek.  See Hebrews chapters 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9.

Blessings, expansion and ABUNDANCE to you Apostle George as you see full manifestation of every promise given to you from the Lord of Hosts!
