When I look across the International Pentecostal Holiness Church, I see women fulfilling who God designed them to be: world changers who are setting the world on fire! These women are igniting others to do the same. His glory is indeed spreading through His people. We are carriers of that glory for His purpose. I see women seeking to hear His voice, and then growing because they listen to His still small voice and obey. He speaks in volumes that can change us and the world with His direction, His power, and His might. Truly we are learning to live, and move, and have our being in Him!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Ignite was the second General Women\u2019s Ministries Conference at The Cove in NC. We had the fabulous Maria Durso all the way from Brooklyn, NY, to spend time with us and speak about the 18 inch drop from your head to your heart. Her openness to share the transformative power of God in her life was liberating. Maryamm Rostampour and Marziyeh Amirizadeh gave their stories of captivity in an Iranian prison for spreading the gospel. It was riveting, spectacular, and moving to see the grace of God in such challenging circumstances. I spoke on igniting what God has put in our hearts and we wrote it down on ignite cards to inspire us to action. Also, we had amazing leaders from all over our denomination lead a plethora of engaging workshops to inspire and equip us to be all that God has in mind for us, to walk in relationship with Him, and to touch the world with the giftings He has given us.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I have seen God move in IPHC Women\u2019s Ministries in wonderful ways, touching the lives of women, and igniting them for His purpose. I look forward to the future, as God is doing a new thing in His people in the IPHC and around the world. He is spreading the fire of His Spirit in His people to overflowing so much that we cannot contain it. When we grasp His love for us, it propels us to tell the world. This will cause people to take their seat at His table and fulfill His purpose for their lives.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Women are coming together from every phase of life. Each of us play a part in propelling IPHC Women\u2019s Ministries into the future where we are living fully in God\u2019s purposes and connecting with other women in our communities. Women\u2019s Ministries must continue to become a place where all women come together for one purpose &#8211; to bring glory to the King of Kings. We will inspire, equip, and support each other in the journey of life. Whether single, married, widowed, with children, childless home, or parenting grandchildren, in every stage of life we can learn from one another. There are so many ways we as women can invest in each other and those who God puts in our paths. We are impacting the world one person at a time with His love and purpose.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Our goal is to mobilize women in His purpose. When we do, we will see lives, families, churches, and nations transformed. IPHC Women\u2019s Ministries encourages women first to be in His presence and second to do His purpose for their lives. Based on Isaiah 43:9 and Psalm 25:4-5, when we are in God\u2019s presence, the desire to fulfill His purpose comes by association of the way maker. God is the Director of our paths. May we strive to obey God and love others as ourselves until Jesus returns! This is how we continue to see women make the difference God designed them to make. This is how we reveal His glory ! We are ignited world-changers!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3067 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2017\/05\/Sam-hexagon-240x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"240\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2017\/05\/Sam-hexagon-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2017\/05\/Sam-hexagon-200x250.jpg 200w, https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2017\/05\/Sam-hexagon.jpg 288w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/>In December 2014, Samantha Snipes began serving the IPHC as the director of Women\u2019s Ministries.

Cuando miro a trav\u00e9s de la Iglesia Internacional de Santidad Pentecostal, veo mujeres cumpliendo con lo que Dios las dise\u00f1\u00f3 para ser: \u00a1cambiantes del mundo que est\u00e1n incendiando el mundo! Estas mujeres est\u00e1n encendiendo a otros para hacer lo mismo. Su gloria se est\u00e1 extendiendo por Su pueblo. Somos portadores de esa gloria para Su prop\u00f3sito. Veo a mujeres que buscan o\u00edr Su voz, y luego crecen porque escuchan Su peque\u00f1a voz y obedecen. \u00c9l habla en vol\u00famenes que pueden cambiar nosotros y el mundo con Su direcci\u00f3n, Su poder y Su poder. \u00a1En verdad estamos aprendiendo a vivir y moverse, y tener nuestro ser en \u00c9l! Ignite fue la segunda Conferencia General de Ministerios de Mujeres en The Cove en Carolina del Norte. Tuvimos la fabulosa Mar\u00eda Durso todo el camino desde Brooklyn, Nueva York, para pasar tiempo con nosotros y hablar de la ca\u00edda de 18 pulgadas de su cabeza a su coraz\u00f3n. Su apertura para compartir el poder transformador de Dios en su vida fue liberadora. Maryamm Rostampour y Marziyeh Amirizadeh dieron sus historias de cautiverio en una prisi\u00f3n iran\u00ed por difundir el evangelio. Fue fascinante, espectacular y emocionante ver la gracia de Dios en circunstancias tan desafiantes. Habl\u00e9 sobre encender lo que Dios ha puesto en nuestros corazones y lo escribimos en tarjetas de fuego para inspirarnos a la acci\u00f3n. Tambi\u00e9n, tuvimos l\u00edderes asombrosos de toda nuestra denominaci\u00f3n liderar una pl\u00e9tora de talleres atractivos para inspirarnos y equiparnos para ser todo lo que Dios tiene en mente para nosotros, caminar en relaci\u00f3n con \u00c9l, y tocar el mundo con los dones que \u00c9l tiene Nos han dado. He visto a Dios moverse en los Ministerios de la Mujer de IPHC de maneras maravillosas, tocando las vidas de las mujeres y encendi\u00e9ndolas para Su prop\u00f3sito. Espero con ansias el futuro, ya que Dios est\u00e1 haciendo algo nuevo en Su pueblo en la IPHC y en todo el mundo. \u00c9l est\u00e1 extendiendo el fuego de Su Esp\u00edritu en Su pueblo a desbordar tanto que no podemos contenerlo. Cuando comprendemos Su amor por nosotros, nos impulsa a decirle al mundo. Esto har\u00e1 que la gente tome su asiento a Su mesa y cumpla Su prop\u00f3sito para sus vidas. Las mujeres se est\u00e1n uniendo desde todas las fases de la vida. Cada uno de nosotros desempe\u00f1a un papel en impulsar los Ministerios de la Mujer de IPHC hacia el futuro donde estamos viviendo plenamente en los prop\u00f3sitos de Dios y conect\u00e1ndonos con otras mujeres en nuestras comunidades. Los Ministerios de la Mujer deben continuar convirti\u00e9ndose en un lugar donde todas las mujeres se unen para un prop\u00f3sito: traer gloria al Rey de Reyes. Nos inspiraremos, nos equiparemos y apoyaremos mutuamente en el viaje de la vida. Ya sean solteros, casados, viudos, con hijos, hijos sin hogar o nietos, en todas las etapas de la vida podemos aprender unos de otros. Hay tantas maneras en que nosotros como mujeres podemos invertir el uno en el otro y aquellos que Dios pone en nuestros caminos. Estamos impactando al mundo una persona a la vez con Su amor y prop\u00f3sito. Nuestra meta es movilizar a las mujeres en Su prop\u00f3sito. Cuando lo hagamos, veremos vidas, familias, iglesias y naciones transformadas. Los Ministerios de la Mujer de IPHC animan a las mujeres primero a estar en Su presencia y segundo a hacer Su prop\u00f3sito para sus vidas. Basado en Isa\u00edas 43: 9 y en el Salmo 25: 4-5, cuando estamos en la presencia de Dios, el deseo de cumplir Su prop\u00f3sito viene por asociaci\u00f3n del hacedor de caminos. Dios es el Director de nuestros caminos. \u00a1Que nos esforcemos por obedecer a Dios y amar a los dem\u00e1s como a nosotros mismos hasta que Jes\u00fas regrese! As\u00ed es como continuamos viendo que las mujeres hacen la diferencia que Dios les dise\u00f1\u00f3 para hacer. \u00a1As\u00ed es como revelamos Su gloria!
