We have all probably heard of Deborah, a female judge who sat under a tree in the Old Testament.
But who was Huldah?
I found her in 2 Kings 22 this morning, during the reign of a king with which I am familiar: Josiah.
But I've never noticed the prophet Huldah before. "She was the wife of Shallum son of Tikvah, son of Harhas, the keeper of the Temple wardrobe" (v. 14, NLT).
Prophets are important in God's kingdom. They advise leaders and provide outside-of-the-institution/system perspective.
In the Old Testament, they are usually men, but not this time!
I want to be a prophetic voice for conservative Christianity.
May I hear from the Lord when it is time to speak.
