WOMEN AT WARFARE WHISPER
I Thessalonians 5:12
And we beseech you, bethren, to know them which labor among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;
And to esteem them very highly in love for their work’s sake. And be at peace among yourselves.


Some us must be careful to avoid the Mary/ Martha syndrome. Women play a huge part in make sure the fight that they are fighting is a good one and that it is effective. We cannot be so consumed with service that we are not balancing ourselves at the feet of the Lord Jesus. We point the finger to say this person won’t do this and that person isn’t doing that. And while crying out to the Lord desiring for help women have the hardest time receiving help through means of a word called DELEGATION! This may be hard to receive but please eat the whole loaf. Many of us women bring excessive weight on their ownselves and family because of failure to assign a duty to someone else who is very capable of doing the labor. You must trust the Lord Jesus in other people that he is operating in them as well as you. You are not the only one with gifts and talents. Let someone else do the work for a change. There’s another statement I hear, “they won’t do it right, at least if I do it I know it will get done the way I want it done.” Have you ever heard that before?  How about how the Lord wants it done? If you do things in unity then it will be justified in Christ. You must trust the Lord Jesus and trust the other members of the body. Communicate and Love accordingly. Know them that labor among you so that the body stays balanced and many other members aren’t overwhelmed and overloaded because of some being slothful in the Lord’s business and others who think that they are God’s great gift and no one else can do what they do! I say these things in love and truth. Let’s maintain the unity in the body of Christ by recognizing each other’s strength and perfecting that which is lacking with delegation. Then we start to overcome not as individuals but as a unified body.
