#1) Demonstrate an intimate familiarity with God’s Word “Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.” (Matthew 4:4) You reveal the godly woman in you when your thoughts, words, and advice are based on the Bible and not your opinion. You’re not throwing out scriptures to show how knowledgeable and spiritual you are, but rather your key instinct is balancing faith and actions on the word of God. #2) Resonate a calm and quietness of spirit “Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight .” (1 Peter 3:4) You don’t frantically wring your hands in the valleys of the unexpected. As a godly woman you have the inner peace of the Holy Spirit to comfort, guide, and teach you when everything seems out of control. You learn to lay your concerns at the foot of the cross and leave them there. #3) Be grounded in courage and strength “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go .” (Joshua 1:9) As our culture tumbles down the slippery slope of worldliness and immorality, you are confident in your Sovereign God to make all things work together for good. (Romans 8:28) You will refuse to let fear invade your thoughts or feelings by constantly reminding yourself of God’s promise to never leave you. #4) Be relentless in prayer and intercession “Pray continually.” (1 Thessalonians 5:17) We need godly women to fervently grab hold of Jesus just like the Canaanite woman in Matthew 15:21-28 and refuse to let circumstances dictate the final outcome over faith. As a godly woman, you will never give up praying for the hardest hearts, the deepest needs, or the highest mountain tops. #5) Be generous in resources “You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion…” (2 Corinthians 9:11)
