While there may not always be safety in standing up and speaking out for God, there is always security in God.

“Be Willing to Step Out When Others Depend on It”

“Was it my responsibility to go to battle? Did God ask me to lead the army? No,” Deborah explains. “That was Barak’s responsibility. It was God’s command that Barak march out and defeat Sisera. But God’s people were depending on us to obey Him and bring the victory. If we as leaders are not willing to step out, then we let our people down. They cannot follow where we do not lead.

“So I went to war for God and my people. It was uncomfortable. It was unexpected. It was right. And God fulfilled His promise, as I’d known He would. And He gave the honor of stopping Sisera’s abuse of the people to another woman. Praise God.

“If you are a leader,” Deborah says, “you must step out when your people are depending on you. Your courage is their courage. Your obedience is their obedience. Your victory is their victory. Don’t let it slip away.”
