5 Minutes of Focus
"Fearless Woman"
After Jesus got up from the grave...Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were the 1st on the scene. They came to check out the tomb, looking for Jesus.
Now, what I find very interesting is NOT how an angel of the Lord came down from heaven, and rolled the stone away....That's kinda what I expected.
But rather, how the angel of the Lord just left those who had been guarding the tomb visibly shaken, afraid and never said a word to them, but just let them shake in fear.
But the minute, the women (Mary Magdalene and the other Mary) showed up, the angel said: Do not be afraid, for I know you are looking for Jesus...
Matt 28:1-7 NIV
Why not comfort the guards by saying: Do not be afraid?
Why only comfort the women by telling them: Do not be afraid?
Women, I decree and declare that God does not want us to be fearful....He wants us to be fearless women, first on the scene to support the things and people we believe in.
God wants us to be unafraid to check out things, to examine the things we don't understand.
He want us to be unafraid of going where we need to go, doing what we need to do without a male being present all the time.
Women, God wants us to take the lead and carry the good news of the gospel and not be afraid to tell it to men, husband-men, boyfriends, our brothers, our sons
etc.
Oh yes, God made you to be fearless... Hence, the mandate given to Mary Magdalene and other Mary to: "Go quickly tell his (male) disciples...He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee."
Matt 28:7 NIV
"Go quickly"...Therefore, as a fearless woman, as the fearless women he has called...We don't have time to waste being afraid, living in fear of the unknown.
For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.
For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid...
We have too much to do, fear can't be apart of it.
2 Timothy 1:7 NIV & NKJ
Until Next Sunday.
