Jael was a courageous woman whose boldness and decisive action won a significant victory for Israel. Her story is a powerful testament to the fact God loves to use the seemingly insignificant people to accomplish his purposes. God is raising up Jaels--wildly courageous women willing to confront their fears, chase their dreams, and step into their divine inheritance.
In the month of June, God is exchanging chaos for peace. As the dust settles, now is the time to align your body, mind and soul with what the Lord is saying and doing. He is the King of working all things together for our good, and in the face of unexpected circumstances, He is doing just that. When loss and disappointment try to take you down, rest in the truth that He has your best in mind, His plans for you are far beyond your wildest dreams. This month, see His goodness as He expresses His love for you through community. God is divinely orchestrating the connections in your life, bringing lifelong relationships. We are being presented with opportunities to grow. It is strength to reveal our weaknesses, and walk hand in hand with God as we allow Him to lead the way. We can take the path of least resistance and remain complacent or we can choose the path that promises the best version of ourselves, following God into uncharted territories. As you become aware of the access you have to His great strength and peace, be reminded that you are being renewed and equipped for your call. You were not made for ordinary, you were made for greatness.

Sometimes the answer to an overwhelming situation isn’t a big miracle, or God’s direct and supernatural intervention.

He has given you all that you need to be the hero - not the victim.
In an age in which we are exposed to so much injustice, pain, and brokenness on a daily basis, it can be difficult to know which battles we are called to fight. Our own personal battles keep so much of our hearts and minds occupied. While we may long for justice and peace, we might be inwardly feel frozen in a spinning cycle of “what do I do?” Allow Deborah’s story to increase your faith, remind you who you are, and draw you close to the heart of God.
