Deborah

Picture Israel in one of its darkest hours. The people are oppressed, fear is thick in the air, and hope feels far away. And then, under the shade of a palm tree, a woman named Deborah rises. She isn’t just a prophet hearing the word of the Lord—she’s a judge, a leader, a mother to her people. Day after day, men and women gather beneath that tree, waiting for her wisdom, trusting her discernment.

When the time comes for battle, she doesn’t sit back. She calls Barak to lead, but when he hesitates, she steps in with courage, standing shoulder to shoulder on the front lines. Deborah’s life tells us that leadership isn’t about power or position—it’s about trust in God, the boldness to act, and the willingness to lead when no one else will.  #Leadership
