When Women Lead!

Now Deborah, a prophet, the wife of Lappidoth, was leading Israel at that time.She held court under the Palm of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in the hill country of Ephraim, and the Israelites went up to her to have their disputes decided. She sent for Barak son of Abinoam from Kedesh in Naphtali and said to him, “The LORD, the God of Israel, commands you: ‘Go, take with you ten thousand men of Naphtali and Zebulun and lead them up to Mount Tabor. I will lead Sisera, the commander of Jabin’s army, with his chariots and his troops to the Kishon River and give him into your hands.’ ” Barak said to her, “If you go with me, I will go; but if you don’t go with me, I won’t go.” “Certainly I will go with you,” said Deborah. “But because of the course you are taking, the honor will not be yours, for the LORD will deliver Sisera into the hands of a woman.” So Deborah went with Barak to Kedesh.There Barak summoned Zebulun and Naphtali, and ten thousand men went up under his command. Deborah also went up with him. Then Deborah said to Barak, “Go! This is the day the LORD has given Sisera into your hands. Has not the LORD gone ahead of you?” So Barak went down Mount Tabor, with ten thousand men following him. At Barak’s advance, the LORD routed Sisera and all his chariots and army by the sword, and Sisera got down from his chariot and fled on foot. Judges 4:4-9, 14,15 NIV
POLITICAL ALERT--ACCORDING TO THE WORD OF GOD!

For those who think God will not use women to lead a nation in victory--think again. He has always used women; in fact, God has always used whoever was willing to hear Him and obey.

When people are secure within themselves and have a relationship with God, they know when He's speaking and know when to speak and to be quiet.

Our God, the God of heaven--is the same--His ways never change and what He has done in the past, He'll do again. God will deliver victory in the hands of a woman--especially the woman who has been so disrespectfully maligned by those who just don't want to see a woman as president in this country.  
And that is the reason so many people are against her--the fact that she is a strong, intelligent woman--who is not afraid to stand up to bullies.

And she has been bullied--by Republicans for years and even now--before the election is even held, Republicans are planning to hold her presidency hostage with unnecessary, expensive investigations that keep the country in a rut and no one benefits. Instead of planning to work with her--to solve the nation's challenges, they are determined to inflict the maximum amount of damage to the country--not Hillary--for she can withstand anything they throw at her.

But we know how they do things--they've already proven themselves with their plot to block anything the first African American president wanted done. They were too self-centered to see the needs of the country and they're at it again--before the election is even held.

In spite of what many say about who will elect the next Supreme Court Justice and how they want someone who is pro-life, if they were really pro-life--they would stop being selfish in their own thinking and consider the needs of the country--and vote for the nominee already put before them and stop planning to destroy the nation with needless investigations. If the money they spent on investigating Hillary before had been used for something positive--like rebuilding the infrastructure, maybe our challenges would not be as mountainous as they are.

This country needs leadership that works for the benefit of all its people. It does not need cantankerous old men, who hold grudges longer than the Mississippi River. They need to get over themselves and promise to keep the country moving forward.

We need clear vision for our educational system that puts us in the forefront instead of leaving us lagging behind other nations.

We need a commitment to guarantee healthcare to all our citizens--giving them opportunity to live long, healthy lives that won't cost them a fortune.

We need lawmakers who will develop laws with clear insight for the present and for the future to protect the rights of all people--regardless of their religious beliefs, ethnicity, or skin color.

If we are going to be The United States of America--we need to unite in our efforts to fight racism and bigotry as well as terrorism. While the world watches our great divide--the enemy--both naturally and spiritually--is dancing in delight at our inability to come together as a nation of one people with diverse interests.

If we elect a person that does not understand how government works, does not understand the needs of all the people and not just the rich, does not understand what a mockery they are making of our "democracy" and refuses to respect all people--then we are a nation doomed to be the laughingstock of the world.

"In God We Trust" is a reminder on our currency, but do we really trust God in this election to know what is best for the country? Or will we allow the dictates of angry, bigots determine our future?

God knows best and if He trusts women to birth a nation, surely we can trust one to lead the nation to victory in all we need in this country.

As servants of the most High God--Believers are told to take care of the poor and the needy. In order to do that--we need someone who understands those needs--not a person who has never know a day of struggle in their life with regard to poverty or lack and can only offer empty rhetoric--making promises they have no desire to keep because the only person they see--is them--not others.
