The cross broke the curse. Women have been set free…

WOW – this is the revelation the Lord shared with me over 15 years ago as he began pulling me to be a pastor, anointing me to minister to both men and women, and help set captives free.

The main question I have asked for so many years that Kris Vallottin also speaks to below is, “Why is the fall of man the one sin that the blood of Jesus cannot cover, based within so many religious denominations? Why would the consequences of that one sin remain, that by its fruit, shows division of the genders to this modern day, in spite of the fact there is a new covenant that came with the birth, life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ! That all things are made new in Christ Jesus!

Recently Kris Vallottin shared the following on his Facebook site. He and his wife Kathy are on staff at Bethel Church in Redding, California:

“The best statement I have on women in leadership is my wife, Kathy. We have co-lead and co-labored in our marriage for 36 years. Together we have owned 9 business, all of which we co-lead. Kathy is a pastor on our staff and one of 12 senior leaders over our church team of 500+. Kathy travels internationally speaking/teaching in conferences and leadership gatherings. She is also a brilliant administrator, has a great prophetic gift, impeccable character and she can spell! She is one of the most respected leaders in our movement and is beloved by everyone who knows her. Our children love her and go to her for insight and wisdom. She is a peacemaker and literally has no enemies except for haters of God. She is a great lover, my best friend and she believed in me in my darkest hours. She NEVER speaks evil of anyone and has the patience of Job.

Anyone who is opposed to women in leadership in the church has simply not met Kathy or still believes in the tooth fairy. Even the Apostle Paul would have empowered this woman. She rocks and so do millions of other women. I am determined to help set them free from thousands of years of prejudice, oppression and bullying in the name of God. There is no single people group that is more is worthy of honor and has been more mistreated in the history of the world. Although men commit 92% of all violent crimes in the world we are still convinced that women are still the ones who are most deceived. I would contend that in six millenniums, Eve's daughters have learned much more from their mistake then Adam's sons. Sadly, it is religious people from every creed, who have been at forefront of this horrible metaphoric genocide from the foundation of the world. As men, we need to invite women on to the world stage with us, because like Joseph, they have been learning some things in prison that have prepared them to lead us out of this famine. He who finds a wife finds favor with God!!!!”

I am absolutely amazed by the references Kris makes that 92% of violent crimes are perpetrated by men… (And yet so many are convinced women are still the ones most deceived.) And, more and more in the studies that I have been part of in the past 15 years in my personal journey to minister without gender prejudice, I have come to recognize the absolute determination of the enemy to kill, steal and destroy through the inflicted physical, spiritual and metaphoric genocide that has resided from the foundation of the creation.

It is very true that many women have been learning some extremely personal and very valued lessons from within “prisons” from messages they have endured for generations that they are not fully accepted by the kingdom of God in all service for and by the ordination of the King of Kings to come out of the prison cages of abuse, low self-esteem, and thoughts of being worth less or of having less value, children and women forced into prostitution, raped, sold into sexual trafficking ,slaving in low paying jobs, worrying about poverty, single parenthood, and lack of education. Even if they had the brains to go for education to better themselves, yet they find there is no financing available to do so.

Sometimes we think these are the atrocities visited upon sisters in countries other than the Americas – yet, do not be deceived, these are some of the same atrocities found right here in our own backyards, in our own neighborhoods and churches.

Lots and lots of room for thought, and much room to be seeking God’s revelation where God would shine His light on the subject matter of women in ministry, to be repentant if finding there has been genocide in any form perpetrated against the women within our realms of power and influence; investing in the the renouncing of every evil work that would keep women in the devils plan to kill, steal and destroy the destiny of God for their lives, and then coming into the fullness of blessing every woman for a time such as this, as they magnify the kingdom of God, making His works manifest upon this earth.
