Women and the Weaker Vessel

​There is often much talk about women in the Christian sector. Oftentimes, we have heard the women ought to keep silent and sometimes they are not respected as leaders of the Most High. The issue we must understand is that the power and the authority given by the Holy Spirit is not a respecter of person. He is, however, a respecter of faith. The Lord simply requires us to humble ourselves and allow the Holy Spirit to do the works of the Lord. Flesh, whether male or female can do nothing. The Holy Spirit heals, delivers, sets free, and covers. The Holy Spirit distributes the gifts and makes room for the operation. The Holy Spirit is who speaks the Word of the Lord. So, let us humble ourselves and keep it simple with the word as the Lord has instructed. He stated there must be a weaker vessel, meaning a yielding vessel, one who will allow the Holy Spirit to reign completely in a situation or circumstance. The weaker vessel meaning the bride, the church with Jesus Christ the bridegroom, our strong tower and refuge. In the Christian sector today there are many women who are lay people and ministers of the cloth. Some are indeed doing the will and purpose of Christ and some are not. Again, I state that the Lord is no respecter of persons. The men have the same issues. When you choose to reflect on the situation with Adam and Eve, there are many who recognize that Adam was not beguiled first but Eve. However, it was not simply because Eve was a woman. Look in the perspective of spiritual warfare. The enemy sought after the weaker vessel and it is our current situation today as the bride of the Lord. The enemy is attacking the weaker vessels who are not completely dependent on Christ and those who have trust issues. Christ’s strength is made perfect in our weakness. We cannot handle things on our own. The Holy Spirit must give the increase. We must decrease. Take heed those who think they stand…those who are not standing by the Holy Spirit. When you think you’ve got it covered and figured out in your little head, then you subject yourself to more warfare where the enemy comes with seducing spirits and other doctrines. So, the weaker vessel, the church as a whole must yield to the Holy Spirit and the head Jesus Christ. We cannot rationalize or play the blame game. This is about true surrender to the will of Christ, regardless the gender, obedience is required.  None of us should count it robbery to be equal with God.
