DRIVE THE CHANGE STEP 10

25 Steps to transit from being barren to a millionaire of souls.

Empower Women – The Lord designed His church to be gender-neutral where men and women are equal members of His Body. He ministered to women who were off limits. Mary of Magdala, a redeemed sinner, was the first apostle (sent one) to the apostles. Priscilla, Phoebe, Lydia, Apphia, Nympha and host of other women were apostles, prophets, teachers and house church facilitators. Paul never asked women (gune) to keep their mouths shut, he only asked wives (gune) not to embarrass their husbands (aner) in public but to ask them questions at home. He encouraged everyone, men and women to share psalms, teachings, revelations, testimonies and prophesy.” Yeshua’s blood removes the curse of Eve.

Paul did not ask women to cover their head with a piece of cloth, but with hair. As a Jewish man, Paul covered his head with kippah (cap) all the time and wore a talit (prayer shawl) while praying. Orthodox Jewish women are not allowed to cover their head with prayer shawl or to read the Torah in public. It is criminal and they can get arrested for it. Paul asked men not to have long hair and women not to have shaved head (sign of temple prostitutes), but both women and men to have Christ as their covering.

He was not setting a tradition because God does not look at the length of hair but at the heart. God formed the man from dead dust (Hebrew yatser=mould like a pot) to be filled with one purpose at a time but fashioned the woman (Hebrew banah=build) from a living rib, to be a builder of relationships. Women are the custodians of faith in any culture. One woman can reach many and many women can reach everyone. Not empowering women to make disciples, baptize and serve the Lord’s Supper, would diminish her role as a helpmeet to her real spouse (Yeshua) and disenfranchise the most productive part of the evangelistic workforce of the church. (1 Cor. 12:12; Gal. 3:27-29; 1Cor. 7:25; 11: 15,16; 14:34,35; Genesis 2:22)
