TACTICS
Embrace is to accept, willingly and enthusiastically support, and hold closely in one’s arms.
Bible Text: Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. Romans 12:10:
Encourage is to inspire with courage, spirit, and hope. Encouraging one another is how we share strength, love, and courage, but it also involves exhortation, urging, strengthening, and even appealing.
Bible Text: Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing. - 1 Thessalonians 5:11
Empower is having the knowledge, confidence, means, or ability to do things or make decisions. However, we must be filled with the Holy Spirit, who gives strength and authority.
Bible Text: But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Acts 1:8
Equip is to make ready, prepare. Rick Yancy stated God does not call the equipped, but he equips who He calls. Women of All Nations, YOU are the called.
Bible Text: - Now may the God of peace equip you with everything good for doing his will, and may He work in you what is pleasing to Him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. The Holy Spirit equips for works of service so that the body of Christ may be built up. Hebrews 20:20-21
Charge:
The charge to the women of All Nations is to to embrace, encourage, empower, and equip women of ALL nations with the goal of advancing the kingdom of God.
