- Esther 4:14
Do you know who you are? I mean, truly know who you are? As Christian women, our identity is deeply rooted in how God sees us. Here are a few reminders of how we are seen through God’s eyes:
​
-
We are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14).
-
We are daughters of the King (2 Corinthians 6:18).
-
We are chosen and dearly loved (Colossians 3:12).
-
We are a new creation in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17).
-
We are heirs with Christ (Romans 8:17).
-
We are God’s workmanship, created for good works (Ephesians 2:10).
-
We are the light of the world and the salt of the earth (Matthew 5:13-14).\
​
This is who we are. This is the truth. And why is this the truth? Because the Bible is God’s infallible Word.
​
-
All Scripture is God-breathed (2 Timothy 3:16-17).
-
The Word of the Lord endures forever (1 Peter 1:25).
-
God's Word will not return void (Isaiah 55:11).
​
Do you know what you have been called to do? Not just what you would like to do, but what you have been divinely called to do? Let me remind you of what the scripture says:
​
-
Make disciples of all nations (Matthew 28:19-20).
-
Love one another as Christ loves us (John 13:34-35).
-
Serve others humbly in love (Galatians 5:13).
-
Be witnesses to the ends of the earth (Acts 1:8).
​
Do you understand the reason behind our mission? Jesus paid the ultimate price on the cross for the remission of our sins. Consider the parable of the virgins and their lamps (Matthew 25:1-13) – we must be prepared and vigilant. Our mission is rooted in the Great Commission and what God expects of us as believers:
​
-
Go and make disciples (Matthew 28:19-20).
-
Share the Gospel with boldness (Romans 1:16).
-
Live a life worthy of our calling (Ephesians 4:1).
​
Our Women’s Ministry is built on these fundamental truths. We are the Bride of Christ, and our aim is ALWAYS Jesus. Now that we have a common understanding as our foundation, let me express just how deeply blessed and excited I am to begin this incredible journey alongside you, wonderful women of Faith Chapel. Together, we have the opportunity to grow in our faith, support one another, and make a meaningful impact in our church and community.
Each of you brings unique gifts, experiences, and perspectives that enrich our ministry and help us grow stronger together. As we walk this path, we will encourage one another, lift each other up, and spur one another on toward love and good deeds (Hebrews 10:24). Our Women’s Ministry is more than just a program; it’s a training ground. It is a firm foundation that produces the fruit of discipleship, Kingdom equipping, deep relationships, leadership development, and so much more.
We are excited to see how God will work through us, transforming our lives and using us to shine His light in the world. We will learn, serve, and grow together, always keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith (Hebrews 12:2).
As our ministry grows, we will equip each woman with fundamental Kingdom truths and arm every leader (that’s every one of us) with the tools required to be effective for the Kingdom of God.
We are praying for doors to open and the love of God to be poured out over the women of our communities and circles of influence. For our Women's Ministry to be a space carved out, cultivating an atmosphere of vulnerability, producing a genuine and God-centered sisterhood. We are praying for a ministry where love is planted and bridges of the heart can grow, connecting women of all ages, backgrounds, life stages, because we serve an intentional God, and every life experience holds value and a testimony of encouragement. We are praying for a space where walls can come down in an atmosphere of openness; where deliberate and God-centered love casts out all judgement and fear, allowing true growth to take place; an atmosphere where wins, losses, and testimonies of all shapes and sizes are celebrated. We are praying for a platform of supernatural spiritual, emotional, and relational growth; bringing with it, a layer of loving accountability where being a Christian is not just about attending a Sunday service, rather a lifestyle we can live out side-by-side. We trust and believe God is working amidst our prayers. In Jesus name, amen.
