Faith's Checkbook (By: C.H. Spurgeon)

                                                                                 A Woman's War

                                                      The Lord will sell Sisera into the hand of a woman.
                                                                                      ~ Judges 4:9

  "Rather an unusual text, but there may be souls in the world that may have faith enough to grasp it. Barak, the man, though called to the war, had little stomach for the fight unless Deborah would go with him, and so the Lord determined to make it a woman's war. By this means He rebuked the slackness of the man, and gained for Himself the more renown, and cast the more shame upon the enemies of His people.
God chose a woman for this war, because
our faith is more stronger than a man's
faith is when it comes to spiritual warfare.
Because we believe that the Power of Prayer
believing in faith anything is possible, where
man doubts his faith a lot. A woman is
usually the first to answer God's call when He
needs us for something.
  The Lord can still use feeble instruments. Why not me? He may use persons who are not commonly called to great public engagements. Why not you? The woman who slew the enemy of Israel was just a wife who tarried in her tent. She was no orator, but a woman who milked the cows and made butter. May not the Lord use any one of us to accomplish His purpose?"
(By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)

  1. Lord, thank You for choosing women for this war, that rageous everyday. Give us the strength to be able to fight this war with You daily. And Lord, help those who doubt their own faith, whether it is really going to happen or not. There are a lot of people out there who believe in God the Father and believe that Jesus was a great teach and that is all they believe, so Lord I am asking You to do something in these peoples lives that they cannot justify what has happened other than by the Power of God the Father and God the Son the Lord Jesus Christ who died on the cross so that we might be saved one day.Lord we pray for all of Your children who talk about how they believe in You and read their bible and say their prayer, but when it comes down to really serving You and laying down their own lives for You and taking a stand in what they believe in they close the doors and shut them selves out of their blessings because they fear man more than they fear You. We ask that You will give them a concerning heart and a sound heart Lord, this we ask and receive it in Christ Jesus' precious Name, Amen.
