Who Is Your Comforter

The Message Bible - Isaiah 54:11, “Afflicted city, storm-battered, unpitied: I’m about to rebuild you with stones of turquoise,

Lay your foundations with sapphires, construct your towers with rubies, your gates with jewels, and all your walls with precious stones.

As women there is something within us that desires to be comforted. There is nothing wrong with

this, but the question is, who is your comforter? Sometimes we forget that we can go to God for anything. The word comfort means to soothe, console or re-assure; bring cheer to. No one can comfort us like the Holy Spirit.

Along this journey called life, we face many challenges. At times you may feel you are alone and no one cares. This is when our judgment or reasoning becomes impaired.

Most often we seek solace in another person, to console, encourage, or basically play the role of the Holy Spirit. For many of us it is usually a man regardless of what he looks like, his status in life, whether he is married, single divorce, jobless, etc...as long as he is there. It may satisfy you for a while, but when that short season is up, you are left feeling depleted of life because that person was never created to fulfill you, but God only.

When you allow the Holy Spirit to comfort you, He strengthens you and gives you peace. He restores your soul, mind and spirit. He rebuilds and lays your foundation with sapphires, and He causes you to shine like a precious jewel. Help us today Lord Jesus as teens/woman to desire your Holy Spirit to be our comforter.

Miriam

Miriam was the big sister of Moses. Her name (sometimes rendered as Mary in English) means 'bitter' although it could also signify 'one who loves or is loved by Yahweh'. Yahweh means 'the self-existent one'. Yahweh is one of the ways the children of Israel referred to God. Meet the family Amram and Jochebed were the father and mother of Miriam, Aaron and Moses. Moses was the youngest of the three yet became the leader of the pack (Exodus 2:3-4; Exodus 6:20; Numbers 26:59). Moses was the man who led Israel out of Egypt. As the big sister of the family Miriam knew all the secrets. Women often get to know about things that men don't. When Pharaoh of Egypt decreed the death of all Israel baby boys in a desperate attempt to curb the growth of Israel, Amram and Jochebed put baby Moses into a waterproof basket and set it on the river in an attempt to save his life. It was Miriam who was watching the basket when the daughter of Pharaoh discovered it. It w...

What Happen To Your Rulership?

My desire is for women to be restored to their rightful place of rulership of Grace, Femininity, Beauty, Temperance, and Excellence. Together they work from within and shine outwardly. The enemy of our soul works counterclockwise in that he uses the exterior and destroys what is on the inside. There is a direct correlation between rulership and judgment. In order to effectively rule, there must be the practice of sound judgment. When rulership is void of sound judgment, a poor rulership is inevitable. Rulership is a choice. You can either rule or be ruled. Walking in rulership is important because it sets order and establishes boundaries. God (YAH) has given us rulership over our conduct, appearance, and speech. These things have rulership over you by choice. Rulership is the difference between YAH's people and the world. Rulership is living the way YAH (God) intended for us to live before the foundation of the world. It is time ...

Deborah

Deborah was a prophet, a leader (otherwise known as a Judge) in Israel as well as the wife of Lappidoth (Judges 4:4). Deborah means 'bee'. Bees are responsible for pollination of flowering plants. Pollination is what creates seeds that grow into other plants. One third of the human food supply depends on insect pollination of plants and bees play a major role in this 1 . The biblical Deborah, like a bee, fulfilled an active and vital role in bringing life to the community. Background After the death of Joshua, the man who had led the Israelites into the land of Canaan, God raised up Judges to lead and rule Israel. The first Judges God used were Othniel, Ehud and Shamgar (Judges 3). And then came Deborah. In Deborah's day Israel had no overall leader. Everyone did whatever they pleased and the nation fell into sin and were oppressed by the Canaanites (Judges 21:25). Jabin was the Canaanite king during the era of Deborah. Sisera was the commander of Jabin's...
