Rise Up King's Daughters (part 1 of 4)
RISE UP: KING’S DAUGHTERS
HEADSHIP WITHOUT HARM
God’s Good Design for
Women, Men, and the Church
Genesis 2:18–25, 1 Corinthians 11:2–16, 1 Corinthians 14:26–40
“God’s intentions for the created order are God’s best for us.”
I. Headship Starts With God, Not Gender
“The head of Christ is God.” 1 Corinthians 11:3
How God Practices Headship
1. Initiating Love
2. Empowering the One Under Authority
3. Submitting to the Outcomes—even Suffering for Them
Jesus Redefines Authority
“The rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them…Not so with you.” Mark 10
II. Headship In Creation: Men And Women
A. What is Headship?
B. What is Strong Help?
C. How Headship and Strong Help Fit Together
How women RISE UP:
“I will use my strength to build, not belittle.”
“I will choose respect even when I’m afraid or disappointed, trusting Christ.”
“I will stand beside my husband as a courageous ally in the mission of God.”
“I will not give way to fear, but walk by faith as a daughter of Sarah” (1 Pet 3:6).
D. Why Paul Talks About Head Coverings
III. What Paul Means By “Women Should Be Silent” 1 Cor 14:26-40
What About 1 Timothy 2?
IV. How We Apply This At NCC
To the Women, You are not an afterthought. You are not a problem to solve. You are not a role to contain.
You are King’s daughters— strong, wise, called, needed.
To the Men, Headship is not about being in charge. It is about bearing responsibility. Rise up into Christlike leadership.
To the Church,
Let us receive God’s design with humility and trust.
