MICHELLE LYSTON|WOMAN, YOUR ROLE IS VITAL TO KINGDOM-BUILDING

From the moment woman was created she were surrounded by mystery,
and filled with purpose, potential, beauty, favor and greatness. (Genesis 2:
21 – 23). God’s Word in Psalm 139 14 – 15 reminds us that we are
“fearfully and wonderfully made”. We must always remember these
scriptures.

Lessons From Eve
Genesis 3: 13 – 15 reveals to us that as a result of Eve’s disobedience, and
because of God’s love for us, He kept us from immediate and utter
destruction making this declaration over us in our Father spoke into us an
instruction (Genesis 3: 15) – “And I will put enmity between you and the
woman, and between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head,
and you shall bruise His heel.”
Recognize that there will always be spiritual warfare and a direct fight
between women and the devil, and he uses deception is the biggest
weapon he uses. He deceived Eve to the detriment of her family’s security,
her future and ministry, and realizing her full potential.
This Scripture prophesied Jesus putting the devil under His feet which
occurred through the Crucifixion, Resurrection and Ascension, which
means that man’s Redemption through Jesus Christ was in God’s plan all
along, which means God already knew what the devil would attempt to do.
This is also a revelation for every woman to understand that the enemy
always attacks the head and high priest of the home – the husbands –
most often by attacking wives, through her emotions, thoughts, reasoning,
even her own insecurities, and through the spirits Jezebel and Delilah
(other women) that tempt him. So, women must fight back in specific ways
to counteract those attacks. The enemy seeks to destroy the family unit, to
cut the head off and destroy the family and the future of nations – the
children. So, every woman – whether she is married or not, whether she
has children or not, whether she is saved or not, has a vested interest and
Divine duty to fight for marriages, families, communities, churches and
nations – through intercession and spiritual warfare. However, the key is

having a strong relationship with her Creator. The Only One with all the
strategies necessary to defeat the devil and she is a mighty battle axe in
God’s hands and will!

Warrior Carriers
Furthermore, the Lord declared that He would put enmity between the devil
and the woman and between the devil’s seed and her seed. This tells us
that we are what I call “Warrior Carriers”. We are the gift boxes that carry
those future warriors with the potential to defeat the devil, and he hates
that.
Women are vital to the building of the Kingdom and that is the one who is
the devil’s greatest direct threat, not only because God declared enmity
between herself and the devil, but also because God put enmity between
her seed and his. Every woman represents continuity and heritage,
because she has the capacity to carry, bear and bring to birth the seed that
will continue to bruise the head of the enemy and stop his plans. Every
woman has the potential and capacity to carry devil-defeating seed –
spiritually and naturally!
Women, we are Royal Daughters of the Most High God, filled with
greatness, favor and uncommon potential and purpose. The devil is not
fighting us because we are weak, he fights because he is afraid we will
realize who we really are in God and as His Royal Daughters; because
then we will have a good relationship with our Heavenly Father and get the
secrets on how to defeat him!
So much is broken in our homes, communities, churches and nation, today
some of which we are responsible for as women; but God has given us the
keys in His Word and through His instructions to make us effective
everywhere we are placed to build His Kingdom. This is our ministry – the
Women’s Ministry; and we have a role to play in restoring the family, the
community and the nation using many different Divine strategies and
Biblical principles. We must fight for the future of our children – born and
yet to be born; for marriage according to the Word of God – one man and
one woman. We must teach our sons to be Kings who speak up for and
defend the voiceless; not given to poisons and perversions (spiritually and
naturally); just as the Queen in Proverbs 31: 1 – 9 taught her son. We

need to teach our daughters to be Queens who honor and respect the King
of kings and the high priest of their home. Strong, Godly families make a
strong lays the foundation for a great nation. Women, we need to rise up
and be whom we are created to be for God.
