Deborah’s Legacy: Leading with Wisdom, Courage, and Faith

Deborah’s Legacy: Leading with Wisdom, Courage, and Faith

In this powerful conclusion to the “Brave, Beautiful, and Bold” series, Pastor James Greer shares the story of Deborah—a courageous woman of God who led with wisdom, purpose, and bold faith when others hesitated. This message challenges both women and men to rise up, take spiritual responsibility, and walk in their God-given calling.

Drawing lessons from Deborah’s example and applying them to today’s homes, churches, and workplaces, Pastor James encourages every listener to get in rhythm with God, lead with conviction, and give Him the glory in every victory.

Key Takeaways:

  • Deborah Led When Others Wouldn’t: Leadership is a calling, not a competition—God uses those willing to step forward in obedience.
  • Wisdom Over Ambition: True spiritual leadership begins with seeking God's will and leading with godly wisdom, not worldly pride.
  • Courage Isn’t Gendered—It’s God-Given: Both women and men are called to be bold and brave for God's purposes.
  • Men, It’s Time to Lead: Spiritual leadership starts at home—don’t wait for someone else to take the initiative.
  • Get in Rhythm with God: A right relationship leads to spiritual rest, clarity, and success in every area of life.
  • Brokenness Is No Barrier: Whether male or female, God uses the humble and surrendered—not the perfect—to lead and impact others.
  • Glory Belongs to God: Victory comes when we follow God’s Word and give Him the honor in every breakthrough.
  • Whether you're a Deborah ready to lead or a Barak who needs a push to step up, this message will empower you to take your place in God’s plan and lead with wisdom, courage, and faith.
