Amiable Qualities Of 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.

A strong woman in Christ ought to dress godly. She only has clothes that can cover her well for she is not interested in luring men into sin by making them look lustfully at her. She knows what Jesus said in Matthew 5:28 concerning this and would not want to be guilty.

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.

A strong woman will always say the truth without considering the negative consequences of it. She is known for this in the office so her boss will prefer giving a job to a less qualified person provided he can cook the records. She does not mind if being sincere will make her poor for life because her greatest reward is not money but a mansion in God's Kingdom.

Furthermore, she does not cause trouble. Her spirit is humble and she is ready to take insults for the sake of Christ. Even when she is the best for a task, she does not brag about it or make herself known except her silence will cause a loss to the company. In the church, she does not agitate to share the word of God but instead, she always wants to hear from others in order to improve her faith. When she is giving the task to preach, her hearers immediately want to give their lives to Jesus.

She is also very much useful at home, to her husband and children. Although she is vibrant in the Lord and able to take up cities, he is also very humble and willing to perform her primary duties first. She is a typical example of a virtuous woman as described in Proverbs 31:10-31. Some of the things she does include helping her husband financially and waking up early to feed the family.

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.

She sees it as a need to pray to God in season and out of season. To her, praying a number of times in the morning and evening is not a big deal and she does not miss her morning devotion to God. Her neighbors like her to be their children's mentor.
