Jael was the wife of Heber the Kenite, whose household was at peace with King Jabin, the king that Sisera served. Sisera and his army was out to kill the Israelites but there was a prophecy that came through Deborah that the victory over Sisera would come at the hand of a woman. I’m sure you know which woman it was, and with that being said, can you see her dilemma? She could be who she was expected to be and continue to keep the peace OR she could have done exactly what she was purposed to do AND…. did do and became the hero that saved a nation. Ladies, many of you have expectations that have been given to you by others and many times, its in their expectations of you that you lose sight of you and who you are purposed to be. Many times, their expectations of you will limit you to a box and will not allow you room to grow into whom God has ordained you to be. It’s ok to be the wife, the mother, the business owner, the friend….it’s ok to be all of that BUT in all of that, do not allow yourself to lose sight of who you are in God and your identity in Him. Do not allow yourself to lose your purpose because of the position that others put you in. David had to slay his Goliath……..Jaels, it’s time for you to defeat your Sisera!!! © https://www.weaponsofpraise.org/jaelarise daily 0.75 2026-05-21
