    Rizpa, die vrou wat nie geskuif het nie

    Let me know your thoughts! Sy het nie gepreek nie.  Sy het nie geprotesteer nie.  Sy het nie ’n titel gehad nie. Maar sy het geweier om te beweeg. In hierdie diepgaande episode kyk ons na die verhaal van Rizpah in 2 Samuel 21 (afr1953) — ’n moeder wie se stille volharding ’n hele nasie geraak het. Toe ’n hongersnood Israel tref as gevolg van Saul se sonde, is sewe onskuldige seuns tereggestel. Onder hulle was Rizpah se eie kinders. In plaas daarvan om in bitterheid weg te loop, het sy sakklere geneem en op ’n rots gaan sit. Maande lank het sy die liggame bewaak — die voëls bedags en die diere snags weggehou. En omdat sy gebly het…  Is ’n koning geroer.  Is eer herstel.  En het die reën geval. In hierdie episode ontdek ons: • Die historiese en geestelike konteks van Rizpah se verhaal  • Generasiesonde en verbondsreg  • Wat dit beteken om “op die Rots” te sit  • Stil voorbidding en geestelike oorlogvoering  • Volharding wanneer God stil voel  • Moederskap, rou, waardigheid en herstel  • Hoe private gehoorsaamheid openbare deurbraak kan bring Met NKJV Skriflesings, praktiese toepassing, refleksievrae en Bybelse verwysings, sal hierdie episode spreek tot elkeen wat: – Vir ’n kind bid  – ’n belofte bewaak  – In onreg staan  – ’n stil stryd voer  – Of in ’n wagtydperk sit Jy hoef nie hard te wees om kragtig te wees nie.  Jy hoef nie gesien te word om betekenisvol te wees nie.  Soms begin herlewing met een vrou wat weier om te beweeg. Bly op die Rots. Reën is oppad.

    Rizpah, The woman who would not be moved

    Let me know your thoughts! She never preached.  She never protested.  She never held a position of power. But she refused to move. In this deeply powerful episode, we uncover the story of Rizpah in 2 Samuel 21 (NKJV) — a grieving mother whose silent endurance shifted a nation. When famine struck Israel because of Saul’s past sin, seven innocent sons were executed. Among them were Rizpah’s own children. Instead of walking away in bitterness, she spread sackcloth on a rock and guarded their bodies for months — fighting off birds by day and beasts by night. And because she stayed…  A king was stirred.  Honor was restored.  And rain fell on the land. In this episode we explore: • The historical and spiritual context of Rizpah’s story  • Generational consequences and covenant justice  • What it means to “sit on the Rock”  • Silent intercession and spiritual warfare  • Endurance in seasons where God feels quiet  • Motherhood, grief, dignity, and restoration  • How private obedience can unlock public breakthrough With NKJV Scripture readings, real-life application, reflection questions, and deep biblical parallels, this episode will speak to anyone who is: – Praying for a prodigal  – Guarding a promise  – Standing in injustice  – Fighting silent battles  – Or sitting in a waiting season You don’t have to be loud to be powerful.  You don’t have to be seen to be significant.  Sometimes revival begins with one woman who refuses to move. Stay on the Rock. Rain is coming.
