Thus said the Lord, A voice was heard in Ramah. Lamentation, and bitter weeping, Rachael weeping for her children refused to be comforted for her children, because her children were no more.
Jeremiah 31:15

The Lord has placed a strong burden in my heart for the women folks. As a product of a single parent I witnessed my mother's daily struggles and tenacity to survive while still playing the role of a good mother. It was like a case of leading even though  you are bleeding.  As I  was growing up, I saw  the strength of a wailing woman who was in pains yet she understood the gains of perseverance. I saw in her the character of a warrior who despite her brokenness,  refused to give up her hope in the pursuit of victory. I 've come to discover COURAGE is not an absent of FEAR;  but the WILL to go on even when you feel like quitting. Sometimes, the reminiscence of what Mama went through invokes great pains and feeling of despair across my spine. I was too young, hence there was little I could offer.

She birthed me prophetically into the ministry through her prayers. I still remember with great nostalgic feeling those lonely nights of tears, intercession, travailing, as Mama would groan in pain while asking God to protect me and my siblings from the filthy ugly hands of Satan.

Rachael represents every mother who has ever suffered for her children. Her story touches the heart of every mother who has had a miscarriage, lost a newborn or buried a child in the prime of youth. She stands for every mother who lies awake at night worrying for her wayward children. Why must the Rachaels of the world suffer these inconsolable losses?

Diva’s of Destiny is a ministry wing of Destiny Associates Global Outreach, set aside to minister to the needs of every woman who have once in their lives been abused, rejected, assaulted, raped, single parenting, subjected to all kind of inhumane brutal experiences.

Studies have shown that in every five women you come across, four of them have been through the shackle of rape, abuse , while some have been a single mother to a large extent of their existence. In all ramification these group of women have experienced in their lives very little rays of love, hence most of them tend to becloud their lives with walls of hatred , compounding their minds with a strong philosophical disposition that…… "nobody cares" after all.

The foundation of our ministry is built on LOVE, thus We have been commanded by God to spread this Love of Christ and Hope to all the broken hearted  women across our generation. The Lord specifically called our President ,Prophet Praise to be a Shepherd unto the Shattered by spreading RAYS OF HOPE and the message of DIVINE DESTINY to all wounded hearts.

OUR VISION

Every woman is a Diva. You won’t discover silver until the rough steel goes through the furnace of fire….. Sometimes, the reason God allows us to go through so much is because He wants the fire of our affliction to purify us to become the best He had created us to be.
Isaiah 48:10 Thus says the Lord, Behold, I have refined thee, but not with Silver, I have CHOSEN YOU IN THE FURNACE OF AFFLICTION.
We reach out to Women through prophetic Conferences, seminars , workshops, and prayer summits….known as The Wailing Daughters Of Zion. During these prophetic nights of intercession [ Wailing DAUGHTERS OF ZION], We teach women on how to pray for their children, husbands, families, friends, businesses and ministries. It's usually a  NIGHT of prophetic prayers where we position ourselves in the manner of the Hebrew Women to birth out PURPOSE, VISIONS, MINISTRIES AND DESTINY.
Isaiah 66 : 7-8 Before she travailed, she brought forth, before her pain came, she was delivered of a MALE CHILD….

For as soon as ZION travailed, she brought forth her CHILDREN.

WATCH OUT! FOR ….

THEME: LEAVE THAT WOMAN ALONE!

Rachel Weeping for Her Children

Told in all its gruesome detail, the Christmas story is hardly suitable for children. Matthew tells us that the wise men went back to the East another way: "When Herod realized that he had been outwitted by the Magi, he was furious, and he gave orders to kill all the boys in Bethlehem and its vicinity who were two years old and under, in accordance with the time he had learned from the Magi" (Matt. 2:16). This is the dark side of Christmas, the raw wound of the Nativity. Army boots tromp and stamp across the manger scene. While the Christ is born and rescued, the babes of Bethlehem are slaughtered and buried.

For Matthew, the tragedy brought to mind a prophecy from the Old Testament. Then what was said through the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled:

"A voice is heard in Ramah,
weeping and great mourning,
Rachel weeping for her children
and refusing to be comforted,
because they are no more." (vv. 17-18)

The quotation ends almost in despair. Rachel weeps while Mary rejoices. Her grief is inconsolable; she pushes away her comforters. Her children are gone, never to return, and she will weep the rest of her days.

Who is Rachel? The biblical Rachael was the wife of Jacob (Gen. 29:28). While she was traveling from Bethel to Bethlehem she stopped near Ramah. There "Rachel began to give birth and had great difficulty." She delivered a son in anguish and named him with her dying breath: Ben-Oni, meaning "son of my trouble (Gen. 35:16-20), although Jacob renamed him Benjamin. In addition to Benjamin, Rachel's offspring among the tribes of Israel were Ephraim and Manasseh, the tribes of the north. On the southern edge of Ephraim's territory lies Bethlehem, or Ephrata. Therefore, Rachel represents every mother in Bethlehem. She died in Ephraim, just outside Bethlehem, so when Herod killed the baby boys in the vicinity of Bethlehem, it reminded Matthew of Rachel, who went weeping to her grave at Ramah.

Rachel represents every mother who has ever suffered for her children. Her story touches the heart of every mother who has had a miscarriage, lost a newborn or buried a child in the prime of youth. She stands for every mother who lies awake at night worrying for her wayward children. Why must the Rachaels of the world suffer these inconsolable losses?
A Voice in Ramah
Jeremiah did not have all the answers to the problem of suffering, but he did know where to turn for comfort. By the grace of God, his prophecy does not end in tears, but laughter. Rachel will be comforted after all. Therefore, when Matthew quotes Jeremiah about Rachel weeping in Ramah, he also has in mind the verses that follow:

"Restrain your voice from weeping
and your eyes from tears,
for your work will be rewarded,"
declares the Lord.
"They will return from the land of the enemy,
So there is hope for your future,"
declares the Lord.
"Your children will return to their own land."
(Jer. 31:16-17)

Sorrow and grief do not have the last word, either in Jeremiah or in Matthew. A mother may refuse to be comforted, but God will comfort her nonetheless. "Rachel's tears were not in vain and not forever."

To understand God's comfort, one must first understand Rachel's loss. Jeremiah could hear the sound of Rachel's sobbing in Jerusalem, coming all the way from Ramah. Ramah was a transit camp for refugees. The Babylonians dragged their prisoners five miles from Jerusalem to a staging area at Ramah, where they were chained together for the long march to Babylon. It must have been a place of despair, of fathers chafing against their chains and mothers lifting their voices in lamentation. Their children, their babies, were gone! Some had starved during the siege. Others had been put to the sword during the invasion. In the confusion of battle, still others had been ripped untimely from their mother's breasts, never to be seen again.

With her children dead or lost, it was only natural for Rachel to weep. But eventually she must dry her tears. The Bible is honest about the misery of the human condition, but it never gives in to it. Even those losses that seemed inconsolable can be consoled. Not in this life, perhaps, for we carry some grief’s to the grave. But by quoting Jeremiah, Matthew wanted us to know that the Messiah came to bring comfort and joy, even to the Rachaels "DIVAS" of the world.

To all women who like my mother had been through hell and high waters, the Lord has send me to announce to you that .......HELP IS ON WAY.
You are a Diva of Destiny. A woman of substance, ordained for a special purpose, called to birth forth greatness.
Thy Children shall be taught of the Lord, and great shall be their PEACE. Isaiah 54 :11-17.
