Value of a Woman
I got the following from a young woman, Patrice Harris who started a group on Facebook called Power of Prayer. Men and women should read this to learn the value of a woman. Women, we need to carry ourselves like this!
This week’s Prayer Theme—> The Proverbs 31:10 Woman….Men You can Read this Too!
“A capable, intelligent, and virtuous woman–who is he who can find her? She is far more precious than jewels and her value is far above rubies or pearls.” ~Proverbs 31:10 Amp
As Mother’s Day is approaching, I see it fit to discuss the Proverbs 31:10 Woman. A few verses stand out to me in this passage. I believe it’s God’s plan for woman to live this way and be of this character-> the following is taken from the Amplified Bible:
17; She girds herself with strength [spiritual, mental, and physical fitness for her God-given task] and makes her arms strong and firm.
18; She tastes and sees that her gain from work [with and for God] is good; her lamp goes not out, but it burns on continually through the night [of trouble, privation, or sorrow, warning away fear, doubt, and distrust]…………
20; She opens her hand to the poor, yes, she reaches out her filled hands to the needy [whether in body, mind, or spirit].
25; Strength and dignity are her clothing and her position is strong and secure; she rejoices over the future [the latter day or time to come, knowing that she and her family are in readiness for it]!
26; She opens her mouth in skillful and godly Wisdom, and on her tongue is the law of kindness [giving counsel and instruction].
27; She looks well to how things go in her household, and the bread of idleness (gossip, discontent, and self-pity) she will not eat.
30; Charm and grace are deceptive, and beauty is vain [because it is not lasting], but a woman who reverently and worshipfully fears the Lord, she shall be praised!
31; Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her own works praise her in the gates [of the city]!
This Mother’s Day, may we remember to show appreciation and honor to our Mother’s as God has commanded us to do.
Prayer;
Father we thank you for allowing us to spend another year being able to celebrate this Mother’s Day with our families and loved ones. I pray for all of the women in this prayer group, that we be able to have the godly spirit of the Proverbs 31 women giving us the foundation to be an ideal women, wife, mother, and example of your word. I pray that our future husbands and current husbands recognize our worth as Women of God and support us to be rooted and grounded in your word. I pray that we make efforts to do your will, reading, sharing, and living the word of God. May our lamps never go out. Bless us to have more than enough to give to the needy. Allow us to wear strength and dignity as our clothing and keep our positions strong and secure. Help us to speak skillfully and with godly Wisdom, and allow our tongues to share the law of kindness everywhere we go. In all these things I pray, in Jesus’ name, Amen!
Thanks for joining this group! I am praying for you…Be blessed.
Connected to you through Prayer,
Patrice
Happy Mother’s Day!!!!
