Do you believe? It is hard to at times, right?!? What should we believe? I can tell you this – our God, our Father in Heaven, loves YOU more than anything, and wants you to BELIEVE! He is especially calling out His Eves these days. Can’t you feel it? Don’t you see the fight continually increase against women, and what we were created to carry? We have something so special, so unique to bring to the world that everything that is against our Father and His purposes seeks to destroy us – from our hearts out. Our Father and Creator called us Ezer – translated as “helper” in Genesis when woman was created.
Now – this does NOT mean helper like we’re only here to do laundry and the dishes – ohhhh nooo! If you do a word study on the Hebrew word Ezer, you will find something very, very interesting: it is the same word used to refer to God as helper of those in great times of need. For example, in multiple verses He is “our help and our shield”, and “my help and my deliverer”, etc. A super easy way to do a quick word study is to use the Blue Letter Bible online, look up Gen 2:18/20 and in the Interlinear section look up “helper” to find the word “Ezer”. Click on “Ezer” and you will find all the scriptures that use the word.
Isn’t that something to ponder?
It was Adam that first named her “woman” with the word meaning she was bone of his bone and flesh of his flesh. Note that after the fall, Adam renamed the woman as “Eve” because she was the mother of all living.
While creating this piece, I was thinking about all the things the Lord is asking me to believe and to increase my faith for. Also how He is shouting out to the Eves out there, to know and believe how amazing and wonderful you are, and that you have something special and unique to share with the world! Not something that can be compared to what others have to share (because how boring of a world would it be if we all shared the same things). As I was working on this piece, EVE appeared out of the word BELIEVE… I knew that is what He wanted to portray – He believes in His Eves, He cherishes us, calls us, and loves us.
Know this and BELIEVE!
