Looking at the text today one song rested in my spirit that speaks in a whisper but brings a giant roar “ONE VOICE” song by Brandy:
“I had a dream, a crazy vision, It may sound strange, this intuition, But it was true beyond description; And somehow I knew that it was real; When I saw: One sky above, there is just one source of love, If I've got one chance, one choice, I'll sing it from the heart, One song, one voice.”
It is clear that in the opening of the scripture Awake, Awake, Deborah Awake, Awake is the same as the opening lyrics to One Voice. When you look at the duties of the Lioness in the Pride she always rises for all reasons. Just as Deborah the prophetess did when God beacon unto her to not just Judge the people but to sing the song of Praise and Victory. Many of us as women and men have all had visions and dreams that displayed such strange intuitions within our spirits and when we awaken the next morning those dreams and visions plays over and over in our mind and spirit. But the question is today is do we awaken unto the vision and the dream or do we just do nothing.
Allow me the opportunity to give a brief history of these two books Judges and 2 Timothy. Now the book of Judges gives us an outlook as how God refused to give up on the Israelites in the middle of their indiscretions. No matter what the astonishing revelation is the way God’s Love responded with mercy and forgiveness unto his people. Deborah was the wife of Lappidoth and she was known for her Judgement unto the people. She embraced her calling to be a woman of Power and influence by leading them in a time of corruption and depravity. Such as the same as Paul who wrote to his Beloved Timothy while in prison to hold fast to his faith and stand strong for our Lord. Paul was strong in his Faith and assured in his last days that he will be walking with God. I realize you are pondering in your thoughts regarding the topic of “From a Whisper to a Roar.” For all of us as God’s Children to stand up and make a difference we must do the following:
1. Arise and confront the powers of darkness within standing in our full power in God
2. Arise and activate our power in the name of God with all our gifts of healing, faith and miracles
3. Arise onto the scene within our villages and communities and with a strong voice for the Voiceless
4. Stand and maintain our oneness in Christ Jesus to pioneer a mighty movement to all generations
5. Establish and be confirmed to stand and endure the test by being fixed as Paul in our Faith and assurance in God.
Now to activate such an anointing as Deborah we must implement our true belief in the Father, Son and Holy Ghost to be our wisdom and guide in the spiritual warfare we face daily. Possessing Strategic intercessor, developing a strong love and compassion for God and the people, using our heavenly gift of discernment for revelation for the people, have a maternal leadership and paternal leadership in the communities and villages, being mindful of military tactics in the battlefield with God, being able to stir up and motivate when spiritual conditions are low amongst the people, having a power desire to worship our Lord as a Spiritual Warrior like David.
Let me expound on Judges 5:12-13 Awake, awake, Deborah: awake, awake, utter a song: arise, Barak, and lead thy captivity captive, thou son of Abinoam. Then he made him that remaineth have dominion over the nobles among the people: the Lord made me have dominion over the mighty. In this passage, we must realize that Deborah had to awake herself to plea to act for she also had to rouse from her complacency as a Judge. Think about it there are times in each of our lives we become content and complacent when God is calling out to us in a vision or dream. And we have yet to act unto this beckoning from the Lord.
“There is no role in life more essential and more eternal than that of motherhood,” says Elder M. Russell Ballard. By that quote alone women, I say unto you all Arise and take your place not just as a woman but a mother to nurture which is an Eternal Role. So be like the Lioness in the pride for they unite together for the common goal for the survival of the Pride. Take a moment and look around how many times have you witness a lost child, a young mother struggling, a young man bewildered with too many choices in the wrong direction, someone in need yet there are times we as Christians act like we don’t even see the hurt or hopelessness. But if we all stand together at one time no one will be left behind and lost for at that moment we stand up for Love.
As Paul explains unto 2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. his words are clear and direct for he speaks study Timothy Study long and hard before the Lord Jesus Christ so that your words and works be exemplary before God. Therefore, we must all take our place in this circle of life and Stand up for Love, stand of for Unity, Stand up for righteousness. For when we activate our anointing and faith the forces of darkness cannot stand as the Gospel song states “THERE IS POWER IN THE NAME OF JESUS” which can break the chains of bondage, break the chains of depression, break the chains of loneliness, break the chains of confusion, break the chains of division. And as we stand to break all chains that hinders our relationship with God our Father. And be prepare by putting on the whole armor of God to within stand the battle as it states in Ephesians 6:10-20 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of -God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak. Cry out unto God we are ready for the battle Lord for we stand strong in our Faith. Stand and maintain our oneness in Christ Jesus to pioneer this mighty movement to all generations which brings about a reaction amongst the communities and villages to unite as ONE VOICE. So again, I say, “Turn your whisper into a Roar.”
It only takes for One to stand up for all the forgotten, for all the unloved and be the man in the mirror that has One Voice to follow the vision. Be just as Jesus the one man that willing sacrificed himself for all mankind to have a Free Salvation, and to be willing to show pure LOVE unto others without questions or purpose. Turning your whisper into a Roar has some requirements that we must follow
A. Study not just read the bible but truly Study the word of God so that it becomes saturated in your spirit and you are able to speak in the name of Jesus with a powerful authority.
B. Cry out and arise unto the warfare for every day we face some form of adversity but we must maintain our Faith and Trust in God to see us through the hard times
C. Arise into your anointing and appointed calling that God has placed within your soul.
D. Accept the challenge to fight the battle not physically but spiritually for in Psalms 68:1-5 Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him. As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: as wax melteth before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God. But let the righteous be glad; let them rejoice before God: yea, let them exceedingly rejoice. Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the heavens by his name Jah, and rejoice before him.
Nevertheless, arise righteous warriors unto the Lord be of sound mind and sound spirit in Christ Jesus. For the Lord our God is our El Shaddai for he is our nourisher, the strength-giver, and the satisfier who pours out himself unto all people. So, let me ask this question to have you examined your Whisper and are you ready to Roar. For it is time to make a change in your life a complete change to allow God to pick you up and turn you around and place your feet on solid ground. Once we are standing on his solid ground is when Arise above a Whisper and Roar as bold lions and lioness for our Lord. There is an old hymn that many of us have song over the years
On Christ, the Solid Rock I stand all other ground is sinking sand, I dare not trust the sweetest frame but holy lean on Jesus name. On Christ, the solid rock I stand all other Ground is sinking sand.
So again, I say, “Turn your whisper into a Roar!
