The Vision Lead of Women in God’s Prophetic Alliance (WIGPA), Pastor Mrs. Martha Kure, has urged women, particularly those from Southern Kaduna, to become champions of peace, healing and community transformation by embracing their role in rebuilding families and society.
She made the call on Friday during the grand finale of WIGPA’s five-day conference marking its 25th anniversary, which attracted participants from across Nigeria and several other countries.
Speaking on the conference theme, “Liberated for Dominion,” Pastor Kure challenged women to reject a victim mentality and embrace their responsibility in fostering a peaceful and prosperous future.
“You are not victims of geographical history or socio-political marginalization. You are the strategic gatekeepers of this territory. God is shifting your consciousness from survival to conjoint dominion,” she said.
Reflecting on the history of insecurity and violence in Southern Kaduna, she said women possess the unique ability to heal divided communities and raise a generation grounded in righteousness and responsible leadership.
“For years, the soil of Southern Kaduna has swallowed blood. But the prophetic womb teaches us the law of hidden incubation and systemic change,” she said.
Pastor Kure encouraged women not to allow past experiences to define their future, urging them to become instruments of economic revival, moral renewal and social transformation in their homes, schools and communities.
According to her, women can restore hope by turning their personal struggles into wisdom and strength for others.
Quoting Isaiah 66:11, she described women as the “Corporate Breast of Restoration,” explaining that their experiences, when surrendered to God, can become sources of healing for broken families and vulnerable children.
“In the natural, milk is simply blood transfigured by love. Your personal warfare, your tears and the trials you have survived are being transformed by the Holy Spirit into life-giving wisdom,” she said.
The cleric also advised young women to remain steadfast in their faith and avoid compromising their future because of poverty, social pressure or the pursuit of quick success.
“Do not, out of desperation, poverty or cultural pressure, compromise your marriage bed or align your destiny with men who do not respect God’s purpose for your life. Your alignment determines your assignment,” she warned.
She further encouraged young women to embrace mentorship and personal development rather than rushing ahead of God’s timing.
Pastor Kure described WIGPA as a platform dedicated to mentoring, equipping and preparing women for leadership and nation-building.
She also stressed that God created men and women to work together in advancing peace, justice and development.
“In Genesis 1:28, God gave dominion to them—male and female together. As you align with God’s purpose, take your rightful place alongside your brothers to cultivate, govern and enforce God’s peace over Southern Kaduna,” she said.
The week-long conference featured worship sessions, prayers, leadership teachings, mentorship programmes and reflections on WIGPA’s 25-year impact in raising women committed to spiritual growth, family values and community development.
