Lessons To Earn From Strong Women In Christ

By Donald Cooper


God created women at the end of his other creations to help man and to be a companion to him. The first woman was Eve but after that, there have been many others who have been strong on the word of God. Some examples of strong women in Christ which are made known to us in the Bible are Virgin Mary, Mary Magdalene, Ruth, the prophetess Deborah and many others. These ones have some admirable qualities which young ladies of today would love to have.

One thing that is obvious about these women is their godly dressing. A woman who does not dress well is not really a child of Child. To dress well means to cover oneself well and not to seduce the opposite sex. This must be done to avoid adultery for Jesus himself said by looking at a woman lustfully, adultery has already taken place (Matthew 5:28).

Such a woman is also holy in her conducts. Apart from her dressing, her actions also show it. She avoids every activity that will make her feel reduced or estranged from the Holy Spirit. She will never go out with any man who is not her husband not just for the sake of her husband but for the sake of God.

No matter what the consequences may be, a strong woman in the Lord will say the truth. She is not interested in the financial gains that lying may bring. Give her a top position in the company and she will reject it if what is required of her is to prepare false reports. She is liked by only a few who are as godly as she is and those who want to be like her.

Moreover, she is gentle and quiet. A strong woman that is in Christ has a humble spirit. She does not want to show that she is capable of doing certain things until she sees that there is a big need for them. She is not in a hurry to handle the microphone to speak in the church but she delivers so well when given the task. She advises both young ladies and men to be like Christ.

She is not just known outside but also in her home. Her responsibilities in the church and elsewhere do not make her forget her duties to her husband and children. She is like the virtuous woman that was described in the book of Proverbs chapter 31 from verse 10 to 31. She is glad to help her husband to attain his financial goals.

A strong woman in the Lord is always looking out for the needy to help them. She prepares meals for her servants and asks of the whereabouts of her friends just so that she can come in to help them where she can. She joins the church for hospital and prison ministration.

Women who are deeply rooted in Christ have the habit of having a quiet time. Before the general devotion at home, she wakes up to study the Bible and thank God for life. Simply by emulating her, another Christian can grow. She remains relevant like a light that is placed on the mountain.
