WOMAN AS A SPIRITUAL LEADERSHIP(part 2)




The bible made it known in Genesis 1: 27 – 28


So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Genesis 1: 27 – 28


As a woman, when God looks at you he doesn’t see you differently or inferior to the man. When he sees or looks at you, he sees you in his image and likeness.

As a woman, you are in God’s image and you carry the glory and power of the creator of the whole universe inside of you. You are a daughter of Abraham and you carry inside of you the seed of greatness awaiting your recognition and cultivation. You are not just someone or something in one corners with no significant. You are very special and unique in the plans and purpose of God on earth; you are a unique part of his kingdom plans on earth and you are more than what or who you think you are!

In your kingdom  as a Christian woman, the word “ leadership ” has a total different purpose and method from the world system that you know.
The world system sees leadership as being  “lord over all” but in your own kingdom leadership means service to God and serving humanity.

Jesus explained this kind of leadership to his disciples before he was crucified in Luke 22: 25-27

  25 And He said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those who exercise authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’ 26 But not so among you; on the contrary, he who is greatest among you, let him be as the younger, and he who governs as he who serves. 27 For who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? Yet I am among you as the One who serves.


This world system again sees leadership as being competitive and rivalry but in God’s kingdom a unique space and community for your own gifting and talents have been created just for you awaiting your recognition.

The moment you gave your life to Christ, you are no longer governed by the world system or laws again. You are now an ambassador of God here on earth and you are governed by the laws and principles of God’s kingdom.

In the bid to discover themselves, some women have tried filling this vacuum that they feel inside of them through diverse ways which have been perverted by the devil and has been channeled wrongly.

This is not about women empowerment or liberation of women movement or about gender equality but instead it is about self discovery of the being called “WOMAN” and the real purpose of her creation in God’s plans on this earth.

You as a Christian woman is called onto a leadership, into the most highest kingdom service ever existing which is the kingdom of God. This leadership is not according to the system of this world but according to the principles of God’s kingdom.

You are royalty, a princess and a special being in your own right. You are called to leadership by the creator of the whole universe himself. Oh! How great a priviledge, honour and favour you have in your kingdom.

1“You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. MATTEW  5:14


In the passage above, Jesus explained the type of leadership Christians has been called into.
Woman, you are the light of your world, light is for leadership, anyone that holds a lighted candle in darkness naturally and automatically leads.

You are not created to sit back, watch and complain but you have been loaded and called to lighten up that space that you occupy through service to God and to humanity.

 woman you are more than this!
