When Women Arise for the Glory of God
2 Samuel 21
Today we were reminded that there comes a time when we must choose to arise — not for our own glory, but for the glory of God.
Challenges do not mean God has abandoned us. Often, they reveal our strength and prepare us for where God is taking us. Sometimes the attack is at the level we are on because the enemy fears what we are becoming.
Through the story of Rizpah, we saw a woman who refused to give up. She stood, fought and protected what mattered to her until her persistence reached the king.
Her story reminds us: Don’t give up too early. You cannot delegate your prayer life. Some battles require you to stand with God for yourself, your family and your purpose.
Keep praying. Keep standing. Keep believing. You can appeal to God until His grace comes into your situation.
When women arise, they arise in faith, courage and perseverance — all for the glory of God.
