The Hivites

The Hivites were dwellers of fertile lands, often associated with comfort and pleasure. Spiritually, they point to those entrusted with the delicate task of preserving and nurturing life.

Modern-Day Interpretation

This sphere covers anyone whose work involves sustaining or restoring life, including:

  • Healthcare workers – doctors, nurses, therapists, caregivers

  • Spiritual leaders – pastors, evangelists, chaplains

  • Social workers and counselors – supporting vulnerable communities

Narrative

Imagine the child born in Mathare, struggling with malnutrition or sickness. Without a nurse to treat, a doctor to diagnose, or a counselor to encourage, the future quickly dims. The Life-Givers sphere is about people who see their work not as a job, but as a calling to preserve the breath of God in humanity.
