The Deborah AnointingSample

Deborah: The Judge and Deliverer

My first experience with women’s ministry was something out of a horror movie. The women were yelling at the top of their voices as if someone was stabbing them repeatedly.

One person took the microphone and began to yell, “Run! I said, Run! You better run for your breakthrough!” Women took off running in every direction! I stood there like a deer in headlights, afraid I might get trampled.

Then the lady with the bull horn, I mean, microphone, looked at me with a sharp disapproving glare and said, “Some people think they are too cute to run. They’re afraid of messing up their hair or makeup! Kneel before the Lord as sign of humility!”

While down there on my knees, I said, “Lord, I came here because I needed some answers for my life and deliverance from this pain in my soul, not for this tomfoolery!”

I slowly got up off the floor and heard the Lord say to me, “The things that irritate you are the things you are designed to change. There will come a day when you will bring wise counsel and deliverance to women worldwide. This is a part of the Deborah anointing on your life.”

Many times the Lord will bring identification and definition to the call on your life in the midst of your humiliation and pain. This encounter sent me on a journey to discover who Deborah was and how the anointing on her life related to counsel and deliverance.
