RIGHTEOUS ANOINTED WOMEN

From the desk of Pastor Chris

By definition, righteous means to meet the
standards of what is right & just. It means to
be blameless & to have found favor with God.
Anointed means to be set apart for sacred use.
Women are female human beings who have
characteristics & qualities that are feminine. A
woman servant or attendant can be said to be
a wife, lover, or sweetheart. A righteous,
anointed woman can be said to be a just, blameless woman who has found favor with God and has been set apart for sacred use.

Women today must take their rightful place in ministry. Jesus came not to be served but to serve. Webster's definition of women states that women are servants or attendants. As women, if we are to be like Christ, and we are, we must be willing to serve. We must serve, not only in the traditional roles that the Church has deemed as "women roles", but also in the roles that we typically reserved for men. With women being natural servants, this should not be too hard of a charge. Women must embrace scriptures like Joel 2: 28 which states, "In the last days I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh. Your sons & daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams; your young men will see visions. Even on my sevants, both men & women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days." My husband says it all the time and I agree, "It was the last days 2000 years ago at the Day of Pentecost. So if it was the last days 2000 years ago, and it was, then we must be living at the end of the age or in End Times."

God has given men & women the ability (dunamis) and legal right (exousia) to be His ambassadors in the earth. He has given us The Great Commission. There is a great urgency to win souls for Christ now because satan, lucifer, the devil, the evil one, or whatever you want to call him; the enemy of your soul & mine is busy deceiving, depriving, and destroying millions of souls everyday. Souls are going to Hell in groves, on a well greased, fast track. God is looking for those who will cry loud & spare not. There is no time to waste on trivial matters; such as who can sit in and speak from the pulpit. There is too much at stake to allow the old mindsets hinder the mighty move of God that is going on today. Gender is not the issue, souls are. It is time to do battle against our enemy, the devil. That is why it is imperative that women take up the non-traditional roles of preachers, teachers, prophets, pastors, and evangelists. We must take up the cross & follow Christ.

Righteous, Anointed Women of God are being called by God to be Servant Warriors; equipped & ready for battle. What does it mean to be righteous, anointed women of God? (continued)
