Change Agents

Do you ever wonder whether or not you are influential? Whether the job you do is important, effective, noticed? Whether or not your love and gentleness really make a difference even though it seems like no one is listening?

The Bible says a few things I want to share with your heart this evening if the above resonates with you.

"Through patience, a ruler can be persuaded, and a gentle tongue can break a bone." Proverbs 25:5
"A gracious woman gains respect, but ruthless men gain only wealth." Proverbs 11:16
"For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to give strong support to those whose heart is blameless toward Him." 2 Chronicles 16:9

God sees you. Even when the people around you do not understand, or even if they accuse you, God knows. He knows your words and the deep meaning behind them before you open your mouth! And the reward you need is not for people to understand you or to validate you. You need your Heavenly Lover, your Creator, to say "Well done." From His heart will come your reward.

This piece of writing below is about motherhood. You may not be a physical mom, but you can lead those younger than you, even if you are 10 years old! Loving God and letting Him love you will overflow in you loving others. This loving others, even when they don't get that your motive is kind towards them, is what changes the world. Loving your children, even if no one oohs and aahs over the work you do, is shattering the strongholds of destruction in nations. Love is the strongest force, and God rewards every loving move of your heart.

When we lovingly mother others, the following is how our lives read:

"i am a woman" by christianna reed maas

"My willingness to carry life is the revenge, the antidote, the great rebuttal of every murder, every abortion, and every genocide.   I sustain humanity. Deep inside of me, life grows. I am death’s opposition.

I have pushed back the hand of darkness today. I have caused there to be a weakening tremor among the ranks of those set on earth’s destruction. Today a vibration that calls angels to attention echoed throughout time. Our laughter threatened hell today.

I dined with the greats of God’s army. I made their meals, and tied their shoes. Today, I walked with greatness, and when they were tired I carried them. I have poured myself out for the cause today.

It is finally quiet, but life stirs inside of me. Gaining strength, the pulse of life sends a constant reminder to both good and evil that I have yielded myself to Heaven and now carry its dream. No angel has ever had such a privilege, nor any man. I am humbled by the honor. I am great with destiny.

I birth the freedom fighters. In the great war, I am a leader of underground resistance. I smile at the disguise of my troops, surrounded by a host of warriors, destiny swirling, invisible yet tangible, and the anointing to alter history. Our footsteps marking land for conquest, we move undetected through the common places.

Today I was the barrier between evil and innocence. I was the gate keeper, watching over the hope of mankind, and no intruder trespassed. There is not an hour of day or night when I turn from my post. The fierceness of my love is unmatched on earth.

And because I smiled instead of frowned the world will know the power of grace. Hope has feet, and it will run to the corners of earth, because I stood up against destruction.

I am a woman. I am a mother. I am the keeper and sustainer of life here on earth. Heaven stands in honor of my mission. No one else can carry my call. I am the daughter of Eve. Eve has been redeemed. I am the opposition of death. I am a woman."

So walk courageously, and know that you are not alone. Your prayers and the love you show people is rattling the gates of Hell, which are destined for destruction. Carry on. Bless you.
