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.
The way she behaves is praiseworthy too. Thus, her dressing is not the only mark of her devotion to God as is the case with other women today. She cannot give attention to any other man apart from her husband. She tries to avoid anything at all that will make her feel far away from the Holy Spirit.
A godly woman is pleased to say the truth at all times. Even though telling some lies may bring some monetary benefits, she would rather decide to remain poor than get involved in cooking the financial records. All her employers soon know her and deprive her of handling sensitive positions such as the office of the treasurer, financial secretary or the president.
She is not troublesome except to the kingdom of darkness for she prays and learns from others more than the way she talks. You will rarely see her in a position to teach except by the leading of the Holy Spirit. In the church, many people like to hear her contributions for they are lessons with practical life applications to help men and young women to be like God.
She is not a hypocrite, being known only outside as a good person and not at home. Instead, her husband continuously gives her praise and he is not ashamed to be identified with her in public. Happy are her children for they shall always rejoice. These strong women are typical examples of what Proverbs 31:10-31 says about virtuous women.
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.
