Before the woman came, it was perfect. But, then comes the woman, and through the woman comes corruption and darkness... (1 Timothy 2: 13-15).

EVEN AS CORRUPTION AND DARKNESS COMES THROUGH THE WOMAN, SO THERE MUST ALSO COME REDEMPTION AND LIGHT, THROUGH THE WOMAN.

Show me a virtuous woman, and I will tell you when revival starts.
Show me a 'Mary-like' woman, and I will show you where righteousness begins to spring forth.
Show me an 'Esther-like' woman, and I will tell you when God begins to revenge our enemies for us.
Show me a 'Sarah-like' woman, and I will show you a woman who is able to command her husband to do something, and he does it, even when it is most displeasing to him. (Gen. 21: 9-11)
Show me a submissive wife, and I will show you a man who loves his wife to death.

Permit me to say, by the pattern I have observed in the Scriptures, that it is the will of God that we find at least one woman, who is girded with strength, (permit me to say) a woman who is holy like our holy Mary. Yes, we need a woman, who is able to go through what it feels like to obtain the title: Mother of the Lord. (Luke 1: 43).
.

It is not the kind of Christianity that our sisters practice today that produces that kind of title. I sense (and it scares me) that until we find a woman like this, we may not have that desired revival that we seek, the reawakening of the days as we had it in the book of Acts of the Apostles.

Sin came through the woman (1 Timothy 2:13-15 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.) and when God wanted to bring Salvation, He looked for a woman. Not only that God needed to use the womb of a woman, God also chose to inform a woman first about the coming of the Savior, (God could have informed Joseph first or Mary's father, but He would not do that, rather He told Mary) as opposed to the case of John the Baptist. (Luke 1: 26-38)

Jesus' burial service. None of His close 12, could sense at that moment, that that would be the only opportunity they had, but a woman was available to carryout that very important service. AND THAT WAS BECAUSE SHE LOVED THE LORD SO MUCH, THAT SHE WAS WILLING TO DO ANYTHING, JUST TO PLEASE HIM, even when it meant rubbing her hair on the ground, as she wiped the oil on the Lord's feet. And she actually pleased the Lord, so much, that He recorded what she did as a memorial for her to all generations. (John 12: 3-8).
.
.
Jesus' resurrection. When all the men were down, both spiritually and emotionally, the woman felt there was still something she could do for the Lord, even in His dead state. THE WOMAN LOVED THE LORD SO MUCH, THAT SHE WOULD NEVER GIVE UP ON HIM. Therefore, the woman was the first to witness the resurrection of the Christ, and it was the woman that had the honor of witnessing the resurrection of the Christ to the disciples. (John 20: 10-18).
.
.
Look at it: the Birth, the Burial, the Resurrection, all were initiated by the woman. I think it is the perfect will of God for these to have happened this way.
One thing our sisters must note, is that, the Martriachs, stood in their godly assigned position and played their godly assigned roles, as pertaining their different situations. They didn't try to usurp the position of the man, they didn't try to force their way in, they just loved the Lord and sought to please Him only.

ONLY A WOMAN WITH GREAT GRACE IS CAPABLE TO STEP INTO THEIR SHOES.
LORD PLEASE GIVE US HOLY WOMEN, AMEN.
