Be careful that you do not get caught up in this feminism mindset that is sweeping through our country. It is a counterfeit movement and its root is wicked. It is not Jesus in the least and it bears no witness at all of the true God-fearing women.

The truth in this movement is often twisted and you’ll think you’re fighting a great cause, but listen, it will lead to death and it completely discounts the true women of God and the honor that God has restored to us at the cross.

I am an advocate for women in ministry and pro-women in leadership after a lengthy study of the original scriptures. We are to be women submitted to Christ and His Word. This means we operate in holiness and righteousness. We do not lobby for the killing of unborn children and we do not give an approving nod to that which is sin simply because we are supporting “the sisters.” Nope! Gender matters nothing, it is, and must remain, allegiance to Christ and Christ alone. We must not come into agreement with compromise.

You’ll find it in music artists, movies, books and publications, and sadly in those professing Christ Jesus. “Many on that day will say, Lord, Lord….and He will say, I never knew you. Depart from me you workers of iniquities.” (Matthew 7)

So I’m going to save my shout-outs for those I can trust to lead the little ones following me to Jesus. If they are taking them anywhere else, I’ll pray for them but I will not unite with them in the cause. “How can two walk together lest they be agreed?” We must stay aligned with Christ.

This movement is completely counter to Christ and the Word of God and makes our job so much harder as women. It causes many of us to be mislabeled as rebellious when we are merely obeying the call of God on our lives. We don’t want authority over our brothers; we simply want to join in the work with the gifting given us by Christ, Himself. We wish to walk side by side as Christ always intended.

You’ll find the current movement of feminism takes authority over things and people demanding their rights but they are not in line with scripture. In the Bible, we find scenes of women worshipping pagan gods; we find witchcraft and rituals that were insidious. Children were sacrificed and dances offered to gods of fertility, etc. Women were used for sex as if they were mere possessions.  Be sure it’s on the rise again, except many women are falling for the deception and jumping on this train. Perhaps it looks just a little different but at the end of the day, it is the same spirit.

The first move is for us, true followers of Christ, to see it for what it is-utter deception. Do not support it. If you do, you are supporting the kingdom of darkness rather than the Kingdom of God.

We have the standard and it’s the Word of God. He has called women and supports fully the woman He created. However, He will never bow to sin or excuse it. He is a holy God.  Sin leads to death with consequences you often wish you didn’t have to pay for.

Walk in courage. Walk in holiness. Be the woman you were always intended to be. And walk away from any counterfeits that do not exalt the Lord Jesus.

I am called to empower women but it’s Godly empowerment to walk in the ways of Christ Jesus, nothing less. Do not be deceived.
