Hello friends, this is Val Wolff from Durban South Africa praise the Lord I
have a wonderful question today can woman be pastors and preach, well friends
I understand that this question is very debatable so I have closed the comment section
I'm in the healing and deliverance ministry here in Durban South Africa and
I have a playlist here on YouTube that I answer healing and deliverance
questions to to help people understand the Word of God concerning deliverance
and healing praise the Lord you know the question was asked really can women
preach and pastor a church I want to encourage you to share this video to
help women who are called to the ministry you know most of the people who
follow me are incredibly honoring and respectful and I'm so thankful to you
for connecting with us through subscribing to this channel and for your
love towards myself and my husband and the ministry that God has called us both
too, hallelujah now in 1 Timothy 2 verses 12 to 13 it says I do not permit a woman
to teach or to assume authority over a man she must be quiet you know the devil
has done his very best to dishonor discredit and shame woman from Adam and
Eve, yes we are fearfully and wonderfully made, with a plan to prosper and yes we
have a calling, there is no doubt God is moving powerfully in woman I believe we
are moving in the season where the religious spirit is going to be
completely knocked off of its high place and in the last days it shall be friends
God declares that he will pour out his spirit on all
or on all flesh and sons and the daughters they're going to prophesy
young men shall see visions and the old men shall dream dreams we see that in Acts 2
vs. 17 years friends many are looking at that verse in Timothy and are not realizing
that it is foolishness to make a doctrine out of one verse from the Bible
hallelujah you know the Bible is clear it says when you are in Christ there is
no male or female there is neither Jew nor Gentile neither slave nor free
nor is there male or female for you are all one in Christ Jesus
you know we find that in Galatians 3 verses 28 now Paul is speaking in the
singular of woman not women in general he is permitting this lady to speak she
had false teaching and was disrupting others and causing a lot of trouble in
the church and God is not limited friends and can call whom he pleases to
do his work and to occupy whatever office of ministry he chooses to the willing
and obedient servant that acts upon the word you know when Paul was silencing
the woman in the church he was referring to that specific situation at that time
that woman were causing disturbance think about it God used you know the
Ravens an unclean bird really to feed Elijah he used Queen Esther to save the
Jewish people in Babylon now many want to argue but I can assure
you the anointing I have is from God. Men and women both internationally and
locally travel great distances to receive healing prayer and deliverance
prayer and testify that what we are doing here is
from God so is God going against his word by
calling me into this ministry as a woman certainly not God has given us as
believers gifts for the edification of the church we see Priscilla and her
husband Aquila in Acts 18 teaching Apollos
the gospel and you know the Bible mentions Priscilla first so woman taught
at Ephesus now Paul didn't mention her husband first he wanted to emphasize a
point that God had gifted her and was using her as the leader of that church
that met in their home Priscilla functioned as a pastor she preached she
taught in Acts 10 verses 34 to 36 it says that God is not a respecter of persons
and that he shows no partiality you know one day when we stand before him we must
understand that he is not judging us on our gender the color of our skin which
country we came from how much money we made if you know if you were famous or
not I spoke earlier of Galatians 3 verses 26 to 29 it says there is neither
Jew nor Greek slave etc yes we are all one in Christ and are heirs of the
promise yes hallelujah therefore God loves us all there is no one that he
loves more than another he freely gives gifts to them that ask and as we abide
in him and he in us we can ask him for anything and yes it shall be done he
says whosoever shall say to the mountain you know I'm whosoever and so
are you hallelujah we are all the head and not the tail we all have our roles
to play in Ephesians 5 verses 25 husbands must love their wives
we are the weaker sex on a physical level
likewise women are commanded to be submissive to their husbands the husband
is the spiritual head husbands are held responsible before God on the spiritual
temperature of their home and will account for that on the last day and
there's a great responsibility for them to be humble and christ-like not
arrogant and prideful but we are one flesh when we get married we work
together and we complement each other hallelujah you know I have a wonderful
marriage and God moves greatly in both of us in the ministry praise the Lord we
are there for each other we comfort each other we pray we
understand each other's roles in the ministry and we praise God the ministry
is powerful and it is effective and it's blessed in Christ Jesus now the devil
does not want the Bible to be shared and he will certainly do anything he
possibly can to stop it think of Joel 2 verses 28 to 29 it says that God pours
out his spirit on all flesh where the sons and the daughters prophesy we spoke
about this so if a woman so if woman are not allowed to speak why do I have the
gift of prophecy, oh dear, Mary was sitting with Jesus with
all the other men while Martha was busy cooking but Jesus said that Mary had the
better plan yes being with Jesus and learning from him hallelujah is the key
yes praise the Lord the church in Corinth
was in a state of confusion and disorder at the time that Paul had written that
letter, woman were not on their best behavior and they were not educated in
the word at that time some were disrespectful and were disrupting the
service as I said before and that's why they said to go and ask your husband at
home but also understand that in those times Priscilla and so many others were
working in the church it's not a command to stop preaching friends this is a
specific instance where a woman was disrespectful and disrupting the service
without any knowledge of the word you know even in biblical times there were
woman pastors in the church like Phoebe and you know we spoke about Priscilla
in Romans 6 versus 1, Paul speaks to the church at Rome he says I
commend to you our sister Phoebe who is a deacon in the church in Cenchrea and
this is pastoral ministry that she is doing so ladies God doesn't see us in a
lesser way at all we are all his children and he loves and he cares for
us all, just remember he is not a respecter of persons he is not looking
to gender but we are known by him by our love praise the Lord
Jesus even instructed all believers that is men and women in Mark 16 that
believers would go out into the world and preach the gospel he wouldn't give
us gifts that we should put under a lampstand you know we must be the light
and publicly unashamedly get out there and help others just as
Jesus did he is pouring out his spirit on everyone in these last days look
let's be honest the problem in the church today is not that women are
preaching but the truth is that some feel very threatened by how God has
anointed certain woman and have tried various ways to stop them from
exercising their gifts in the church but if God has called you soldier on
yes. I know of both women and men preachers who have succeeded greatly and
some men and women pastors that have left the ministry as well the bottom
line is we are known by the fruits it's not about it it's not about gender
it's about fruits by their fruits the word says you will know them so seeking
first the kingdom is how all things are added unto us now friends if you are a
woman called to ministry know that the devil will do everything he possibly can
to stop the Word of God being preached this is his very mission and he knows
that the word is spirit and life and that it brings forth great freedom and
abundant life to those who meditate on it day and night to those who declare it
and put it into practice and believe it don't worry about the religious old boys
club that will deny this, love them and make them a cup of tea with extra sugar
and chocolate chip cookies yes in their distress concerning this issue perhaps
change the subject speak about the weather it's really not worth quarreling
about friends I tell you when the anointing is upon your life you really
won't care what others think it never bothered me at all
love everyone and I pray for those whom the Lord sends to me
I have volunteers and employees men and woman that both love and respect the
call of God on my life we have a wonderful fellowship together the glory
of God is seen upon us because God commands the blessing when we are in
unity when you come to Christ healing Center you'll see the great love of the
people of God that are with us yes you know love covers all amen
you know people fall short of their healing and their deliverance when they
don't understand the word and come to conclusions that woman shouldn't preach
don't lose out on what God has for you men and woman are both called of God for
we are all one in Christ Jesus the devil is a liar
and he is defeated through this word praise God hallelujah tell the world
about Jesus and don't let anyone or any evil spirits stop you because the truth
is the devil will not have you do ministry both men and woman and he tries
his best to twist the word and bring about these arguments to stop women in
ministry think about it you could be questioning this and perhaps you are in
need right now of healing and deliverance God is anointed many woman
in this area like myself don't hold back and lose out on receiving your
deliverance because of disagreements or arguing on this issue may we have ears
to hear what the Spirit of God is saying to his church today friends I want to
pray for some of you ladies out there that have been discouraged hurts
rejected by men on this very issue God has anointed you but you may feel
confused because the calling is so great but the opposition
is now out there and we know it is the devil that comes to steal kill
and destroy let's take authority and be sure to get
out there and do what the Lord has called you to do please email us at
info@christhealingcentre.co.za and let us know how this has
encouraged you remember the harvest is great but the workers are few and God
wants to use you you woman yes he does so Father right now in the mighty name
of Jesus Christ Lord we lift up these ladies Lord that have been even
questioning in their hearts concerning this the scriptures Lord father these
ladies who are so willing to get out there Lord and to preach and to lay
hands upon the sick and to see them recover Lord we lift them up to you and
we break of all the demonic arguments over the subjects Lord for your word
says father that you called us all as believers to go out into all the world
and to preach Father and to cast out these demons Lord that come against our
progress Lord in the name of Jesus Christ father we rebuke every satanic
argument right now and we break it in the name of Jesus Christ well I believe
that that is done in the name of Jesus Christ
friends God's Word is true Jesus loves you and he has called you you get out
there and be encouraged and go lay hands upon the sick go and spread the word of
Jesus out there without any worries amen God bless you
