Commentary from Pastor Michael White:

Barak told her, “I will go, but only if you go with me.” “Very well,” she replied, “I will go with you. But you will receive no honor in this venture, for the Lord’s victory over Sisera will be at the hands of a woman.” – Judges 4:8-9

Barak didn’t have the courage to do what God called him to do. But Deborah did! So when the men were too scared to go and fight, she led the charge. She told Barak how many troops to bring, and she signaled when God wanted Israel to fight. Under Deborah’s leadership, God’s army killed all the enemy troops: “Not a single one was left alive (Judges 4:16).

Thank God for Deborah! Thank God for strong women in our churches who promote God’s agenda. Thank God for women of God who stop at nothing for victory!

Prayer:

Father, thank You for the strong women of God in my life. Thank You for my mother, and thank You for my wife! Surround me with strong women of God in my life, and remind me to pray for and appreciate them, in Jesus’ name!
