Why isn’t there more victory in my life?” In response, God led me to Revelation 19:11-13–a picture of the victorious Christ riding into battle on a white horse.

During a time in America’s history when it was considered unseemly for a woman to speak in public and blacks were thought not to have souls, Jarena Lee stands as a spiritual and social pioneer. Lee was born to a free African-American family in Cape May, New Jersey, on Feb. 11, 1783. At age 7, she was sent to work for a family located about 60 miles from her birthplace.
