VIRTUOUS WOMEN ADVENTURE
VIRTUOUS WOMAN QUOTES ON VIRTUE IN THE BIBLE VERSES
May I wish you a warm
welcome back, and may
God open your mind and
heart for another
awesome adventure in
TRUTH!
You know without a doubt
that a wholesome
Christian lifestyle
(your merchandise) is
righteous. The world
would have you think
otherwise, but you know
that walking the
Christian walk is the
only acceptable choice
in your beloved Lord's
eyes. Other peoples'
opinions about the way
you choose to serve the
Lord, should not
persuade you to consider
anything else.
|
Isaiah 51:7
Hearken unto
me, ye that
know
righteousness,
the people
in whose
heart is my
law; fear ye
not the
reproach of
men, neither
be ye afraid
of their
revilings. |
|
Ephesians
5:6-7
Let no man
deceive you
with vain
words: for
because of
these things
cometh the
wrath of God
upon the
children of
disobedience.
Be not ye
therefore
partakers
with them. |
|
Proverbs
13:20
He that
walketh with
wise men
shall be
wise: but a
companion of
fools shall
be
destroyed. |
Right and wrong ... We
all know the difference.
And we all sometimes
make excuses for the
times we choose wrong.
And then later we
usually feel miserable
about it. But when you
do righteously, you know
that unmistakable
feeling of contentment
with yourself that
allows you to sleep good
at night, is a really
good feeling. A
really good
feeling!
VIRTUOUS WOMEN ESCAPE
VIRTUOUS WOMAN QUOTES ON VIRTUE IN THE BIBLE FACTS
Now, don't let's jump to
conclusions here and
surmise that anybody is
saying that you need to
abandon friends that
you've had for umpteen
years because you're
trying to be virtuous
and they're not. God
wants everybody to seek
the virtuous life, and
you may be the tool He
uses as an example to
them. The important
thing is that you are
becoming a different
person, and they're
going to want to keep
you involved in your old
lifestyle, so by all
means, pray that the
Lord guides you and
gives you the strength
that we discussed in the
last step to persevere
through all their
influence. If you feel
like you can't resist
the temptation to fall
into the same worldly
habits that they will
undoubtedly continue in
your presence and
encourage you with,
then you may
have to make a choice.
This endeavor is
especially challenging
with the members of
one's own family in many
cases. You will notice
that in television shows
and movies, the
enthusiastic Christian
in a family of
unbelievers, or even in
a family of believers
(who lack enthusiasm) is
targeted heavily. It's
commonplace for people
to think of anyone that
chooses to put Jesus
first in
their life as an idiot,
a moron, uneducated,
naïve, weak, worthless,
and is usually treated
like a black sheep ...
How ironic. Well, GREAT!
Because Jesus said to
rejoice in such
situations!
|
Matthew
5:10-12
Blessed are
they which
are
persecuted
for
righteousness'
sake: for
theirs is
the Kingdom
of Heaven.
Blessed are
ye, when men
shall revile
you, and
persecute
you, and
shall say
all manner
of evil
against you
falsely, for
My sake.
Rejoice, and
be exceeding
glad: for
great is
your reward
in Heaven:
for so
persecuted
they the
Prophets
which were
before you. |
VIRTUOUS WOMEN WARRIORS
VIRTUOUS WOMAN QUOTES ON VIRTUE IN THE BIBLE PURITY
Onward Christian
soldierettes!
Now let's look at the entire verse:
|
Proverbs
31 ...
Verse 18
She
perceiveth
that her
merchandise
is good: her
candle goeth
not out by
night. |
Let's look at this from
a couple of different
points of view. Is a
virtuous woman
superhuman, robotic and
infallible? Absolutely
not. You are
human, like everyone
else. You will, however,
endure exhaustion until
the small hours of the
morning and rise before
dawn for the benefit of
your family when
necessary. Remember that
poem, The Invitation,
when the author asked if
you would be willing to
endure a weary night of
grief and despair until
you are "bruised to the
bone" but still be able
to rise and shine in
order to do whatever is
necessary to feed the
children? If there is
something that is left
undone, the hour will
not detain you. You are
not moved by fatigue.
Your strength and your
rest come from the Lord.
You never give up.
Now, I know that a lot
of you are a little too
tough on yourselves, and
I want you to have mercy
on your own selves a
little bit if you tend
to be militant. If you
need to get up in the
middle of the night to
tend to a loved one, and
you yawn or drag the
heels of your fuzzy
slippers on your way
down the hall while you
rub the blur in your
eyes from sleep away ...
That doesn't mean that
you're unwilling or
inadequate. It's what's
in your heart that
counts. Anyone who is
wakened abruptly is
going to be a little bit
foggy until you get your
wits about you. If it is
an emergency that
requires you to be sharp
and alert right from the
moment you awake, just
ask the Lord, and have
faith that He will give
you the strength to
endure the crisis ...
And He will
assist you.
ANOTHER VIEW
VIRTUOUS WOMEN ARE HOLY
VIRTUOUS WOMAN QUOTES ON VIRTUE IN THE BIBLE PROMISE
She perceiveth that her
merchandise is good: her
candle goeth not out by
night.
Another message in this
verse may be that a
virtuous woman doesn't
change her ways just to
fit in, or be accepted
by this world. She is
consistent. She doesn't
put her virtues on hold
temporarily because she
is irritable, bored,
anxious, insulted,
wearied, nervous,
tempted, weak,
menstruating, ovulating,
retaining water, or any other reason that
human nature will use to
try and quench her
flame. She is a steady
burning candle!
|
Matthew
25:1-13
Then shall
the Kingdom
of Heaven be
likened unto
ten virgins,
which took
their lamps,
and went
forth to
meet the
bridegroom.
And five of
them were
wise, and
five were
foolish.
They that
were foolish
took their
lamps, and
took no oil
with them:
But the wise
took oil in
their
vessels with
their lamps.
While the
bridegroom
tarried,
they all
slumbered
and slept.
And at
midnight
there was a
cry made,
Behold, the
bridegroom
cometh; go
ye out to
meet him.
Then all
those
virgins
arose, and
trimmed
their lamps.
And the
foolish said
unto the
wise, Give
us of your
oil; for our
lamps are
gone out.
But the wise
answered,
saying, Not
so; lest
there be not
enough for
us and you:
but go ye
rather to
them that
sell, and
buy for
yourselves.
And while
they went to
buy, the
bridegroom
came; and
they that
were ready
went in with
him to the
marriage:
and the door
was shut.
Afterward
came also
the other
virgins,
saying,
Lord, Lord,
open to us.
But he
answered and
said, Verily
I say unto
you, I know
you not.
Watch
therefore,
for ye know
neither the
day nor the
hour wherein
the Son of
man cometh.

GOD LOVES HIS VIRTUOUS WOMEN
VIRTUOUS WOMAN QUOTES ON VIRTUE IN THE BIBLE VOW
With every virtuous act
you perform, you're
putting a drop of oil in
your vessel and lighting
the way to your
salvation, but with
every un-virtuous act,
oil is lost. Don't wait
until it's too late to
prepare yourself for
your bridegroom. If
today was the day He
arrived to gather those
who are ready to go with
Him to the Marriage
Supper of the Lamb,
would you be one of
them, ready?
How can you better
prepare? At any given
time, with every choice
that presents itself,
ask yourself if you're
doing the right thing.
If you have a hard time
discerning what the
right thing is, ask the
Holy Spirit. What
Would Jesus
Do? ... WWJD
... It's a fantastic
question that someone
decided to promote, and
a lot of young
Christians use it as a
rule of thumb to help
keep themselves
righteous. Every time
you choose right, you
have fueled your lamp.
Search within your
heart, listen to your
conscience, follow your
intuition ... These
things are all the
places where the Holy
Spirit awaits you to
confide in Him for
guidance. Fire is a
symbol of the Holy
Spirit. Light a candle
and invite the Holy
Spirit to lead you in
times when you need a
little extra insight
about something.
Your righteousness is
something that other
people will admire and
want to apply to their
own lives when they see
the positive results
that it brings to your
life. When people ask
you for advice about
something, always
encourage them to "Do
the right thing," and
you will be glorifying
God by doing so.
I'd like to address one
other thing about this
verse. The last part
says, 'her candle goeth
not out by night.' When
you have a cold, the
flu, or any other kind
of illness, you know
that you always feel
worse at night. That's
because the flesh, after
a day of all the trials
and tribulations of
life, grows tired, and
when you're ill, it has
the added task of
fighting a virus or
infection all day, so it
stands to reason that
you would feel worse at
night ... And the enemy
knows that is an
opportunity for him to
invade too. In today's
world, you're fighting
off incredible amounts
of evil and wickedness
that the world offers
almost every minute of
the day, unless you're
praying or reading the
Bible, or doing some
other kind of God
business. If you're not
with God, you're with
the world. At any rate,
at night, when your
conscience and your
subconscious mind have
been bombarded with
discerning good from
evil all day, not only
your flesh is weary, but
your spirit may tend to
get tired as well. You
actually lose virtue or
strength. You can learn
more about this in the
Virtue Study. Be
especially aware of
things that feed on your
virtue when you're weak.
Loneliness, depression,
sadness, sexual desires,
overeating or drinking
... These are all things
that will attack more
vigorously at night.
Spiritually speaking,
don't let your candle go
out at night. Reinforce
the TRUTH by confirming
to yourself that the
Lord is your strength
and with Him you can
conquer anything.
VIRTUOUS WOMEN RESEARCH
VIRTUOUS WOMAN QUOTES ON VIRTUE IN THE BIBLE SCRIPTURE
Have a plan of defense
ready for times,
especially at night,
when you may become
vulnerable to the
temptations of the
world. Have a Bible
crossword puzzle book
tucked away, specially
for those times, or some
special flavored tea and
a new inspirational
book. Maybe save a
catalog with religious
items to look through,
or buy a little craft
item to work on. Start a
new hobby, especially if
you have a lot of idle
time. Needle arts,
stained glass, painting,
photography, there are
lots of ways you can
glorify God through a
hobby. Having too much
idle time is an
invitation for trouble.
You can fend off
temptation easily if you
have a strategy all
ready and waiting. Be
prepared.
Now let's talk a little
about our Virtuous
Vitamin for today, shall
we?
YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE
RIGHT ...
TO BE RIGHTEOUS
This is a hard concept
to grasp ... Not only
for women, but for all
people, in general. We
all have a tendency to
believe that whatever WE
think ... Is RIGHT. But
how many times have you
discovered later that
you were ... Less than
right (or wrong)? Isn't
it more righteous to
admit to being wrong,
than to stand up for
something you just
impulsively blurted out
... When you really
didn't know the TRUTH of
the matter, but just
THOUGHT you knew? Pride
is an ugly thing. Pride
can take the most
virtuous of souls and
twist and turn them to
evil, for the sake of
being RIGHT! UGH-LY!
Admitting you're
wrong, can be a truly
virtuous act that you
can accomplish easily,
if you will just
relinquish pride and let
the TRUTH prevail!
WHERE ARE THE VIRTUOUS WOMEN
VIRTUOUS WOMAN QUOTES ON VIRTUE IN THE BIBLE HOPE
Many, many times, we're
all guilty of speaking
out on a subject that we
truly don't know the
TRUTH about, but are
just reciting something
that we heard that
sounded impressive to us
at the time. Prove all
things! Research! Be
aware! Be alert! You are
the mouthpiece of the
Holy Spirit, so
carefully analyze, with
the guidance of the Holy
Spirit, all that you
attest to. If you're one
that will say things,
oh, any old thing, just
to hear yourself talk
... STOP ... Take a
breath (or two, or ten)
and ask yourself if you
really know the TRUTH of
what you're talking
about, or if you just
want credit for saying
... Something ...
Anything.
MATURITY
Life is challenging,
there's no doubt about
it. Many people, when
they become mature, on
their birthday usually,
reflect on the last year
of their life, and when
they conclude the
progress they've made,
they deduce that they
know more now than they
did a year ago. What if
you did that every
day instead
of once a year?!
Wouldn't you become a
more righteous person a
lot faster? And wouldn't
God be proud!
|
2
Corinthians
3:5-5-6
Not that we
are
sufficient
of ourselves
to think any
thing as of
ourselves;
but our
sufficiency
is of God;
Who also
hath made us
able
ministers of
the New
Testament;
not of the
letter, but
of the
Spirit: for
the letter
killeth, but
the Spirit
giveth life. |
Dig deep, find
yourself. Dig deeper,
and find God! All
righteousness comes from
Him and your knowledge
and wisdom of Him, and
what He, through the
Holy Spirit, instills in
you. Don't be hasty with
words. Do a little case
study on your own
beliefs before you
speak, and you will find
that the wisdom of God
will work through you
beyond imagination.
Righteousness is only
right, if it's right.
GIVE YOURSELF A BREAK
... GOD DOES
VIRTUOUS WOMEN CONCLUSION
VIRTUOUS WOMAN QUOTES ON VIRTUE IN THE BIBLE SUMMARY
You're probably
remembering many
instances where you have
spouted off with words
that you didn't prove
for yourself, and
feeling a little
foolish. But instead of
condemning yourself, I
urge you to rejoice,
that God always gives
you the opportunity of
mercy and the chance to
investigate what is
really right and wrong
and even in between,
because that's where the
world loves to captivate
the innocent ... The in
between stuff, the gray
areas, where you
choose what looks right
and sounds right and
feels right, but isn't
right.
|
Proverbs
16:25
There is a
way that
seemeth
right unto a
man, but the
end thereof
are the ways
of death. |
Become a detective for
your Lord. Seek true
righteousness ...
Godliness!
Be a sleuth for the
TRUTH!!!
☺
And as always, reflect
on God's grace, every
day of your life.
