Course 122: Women in Ministry - Lesson #8
Balancing demands of home, ministry and business + 7 Peculiar Pitfalls to avoid
Truly, singlehood is of great advantage for those called to ministry. However, with the grace of God, those called to be married can still succeed holistically provided they minister according to spiritual rules God Himself set in place.
One of those rules is that no spouse should be allowed, for any reason under the sun, to take the place of God in terms of inclination of the heart! God is jealous for His undivided place in the hearts of the redeemed Matthew 16:24-26; Matthew 10:34-39. Jesus enjoins citizens of His Kingdom to always make the main thing the main thing: Know God intimately, loving Him above all else, seek first His Kingdom and posture to do His will in all situations. Matthew 6:19-34. Those who live by this rule learn the great virtue in dying to self so that God is enthroned securely as the fulcrum of life.
When spouse, children, ministry, business and other commitments emerge, they all take their bearing in the heart of the woman of God on the basis of her relationship with Jesus Christ. The outcome is a God kind of life displaying the three benchmarks of the Kingdom: righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. Those three benchmarks sum up the teaching in the Sermon on the Mount articulated clearly in Matthew chapters 5, 6 and 7. As long as women in ministry observe this simple rule, all other relationships will fall in place except where the Lord allows a Cross to emerge. When this is so, He will supply sufficient grace to carry same. 2 Corinthians 12:7-10.
The gifts and callings of God are without repentance as stated in Romans 11:29. It is easy to miss God and still be "flowing" in the charismatic gifts! Satan can use this flow to confuse a woman whose life is falling apart at the seams on the home front or engrossed with the cares of this life in business which tears her heart away from God. Further conceit can arise when financial and social successes seem to be in the bag. Romans 14:17-19 clearly say that the Kingdom of God is not food and drink! The presence of finances, fully booked speaking engagements and flow of charismatic gifts can confuse one who is carnal to believe that she is successful.

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

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.

I celebrate the Joy of my salvation when the Word of Truth, Wisdom and Understanding is released in this manner! Blessings, expansion and ABUNDANCE to you Apostle George as you see full manifestation of every promise given to you from the Lord of Hosts! Every righteous desire shall come to fruition without delay or opposition! Your enemies will serve you with dread and terror because of the SEAL OF ADOPTION that rests upon your head to walk upon high places that are only preserved for those end time Ambassadors with keys to access all dimensions for our Creator and KING - JESUS!!"
