So I was inspired to read more onto the story of Deborah after a revelation that God had placed characteristics of her within many of us.
While reading I realized how much Deborah followed God, it was her full time job even as a judge she would speak the word of God. While other woman in her time were at home taking care of children or the house Deborah was a judge & prophetess . & when told to go into battle She didn't refuse to go, not once was she scared or even thought twice about not going. Sure, God can use any man he wants do do a certain job, but sometimes a woman is the one who can do it best. Deborah arose victorious next to Barak, but the most important thing is not what Deborah did, but yet whom she followed with her whole heart - God. Sometimes God sends us out to fight a battle and we brush it off because we fear we wont have strength. When He is calling you out to fight, do it, there is reason he has chosen YOU for this particular battle. Willingly go and believe in who has your back ;)
"God can raise up stones to do his work, and if he needed a man to do his work, he could raise up a man. But in this case he chose to work through a woman, showing that there is no theological reason that God can't use a woman to speak on his behalf, or to have a woman lead his people"
Judges 5:3 "I will sing to the Lord, I will sing: I will make music to the Lord, the God of Israel."
