A PRAYER FOR WOMEN
God,
As your daughters, you’ve adopted us and brought us into a beautiful heritage. You’ve surrounded us with a great cloud of witnesses that includes faith-filled women. You’ve designed us to be mirrors of your persistence, vulnerability, might, and mercy.
Jesus,
As your sisters, you have seen us, healed us, held us, and commissioned us. As your followers, you challenge us to be more than “good Christian girls”, but holy; working to build your kingdom of love and justice.
Holy Spirit,
As you empowered Esther, Deborah, Shiprah, and Mary, you are strengthening us to carry on their legacy as advocates and leaders. Give us the courage to uniquely express these callings in our lives, in our spheres of influence.
Amen.
About this Plan
In the Bible, we have countless examples of persistent women whom God chose to lead: Women like Deborah, Esther, and Martha. As they stepped into their callings, they rose above the limits their societies placed on them. These women - advocates, protesters, servants, and fighters - transformed their communities and the course of history. Read how the same God who empowered them is empowering you today.
