MY BELOVED WIFE BIBLE VERSES LESSON
BELOVED BIBLE STUDY ON BELOVED IN THE BIBLE MEANING
Happy to have you back
for more of our study of
what it means to be a
virtuous woman. Did you
know that if you're
reading this, which
means that you either
have a computer or
access to a computer and
the internet, chances
are that you
probably consider your
family to be in the
middle class or lower
middle class income
category of working
people? And you probably
wish that you had more
money, am I right?
My friend, I'm sure the
statistics are
staggering as to how
many people there are in
the world that are less
fortunate than you, who
only wish they could
have a fraction of what
you have. It's so easy
to lose perspective of
how Jesus taught us to
help the poor because
we're so busy thinking
we're poor ... When
we're not!
HOLY SOCKS, BATMAN!
I have a little story to
tell you. One day in the
middle of a wet winter
day, I was driving down
the access road to a
major freeway, and there
was a young lady on the
side of the road who
looked a little worse
for wear. She was
shivering and her
clothes weren't heavy
enough to keep warm on
such a day. She held a
sign that said:
|
Please
Help
God Bless
You |
MY BELOVED WIFE BIBLE VERSES TRUTH
BELOVED BIBLE STUDY ON BELOVED IN THE BIBLE PROMISE
Well, as I drove past
her, in my nice dry car
with my nice stereo
playing in my nice warm
coat that was adequate
for the weather, I
opened my wallet and had
only a few coins in it,
but I remembered putting
on a brand new pair of
thick white socks just
an hour ago, and being a
person myself who is
very sensitive to cold
damp weather, I thought,
I could at least give
her those new socks. I
have to tell you though,
that after I thought
about the idea for a
second or two, my second
impulse was, "Nehhhhh,
nobody would want socks
that had been on someone
else's feet."
"If you don't give them
to her, you're gonna
wish you did later,"
interrupted my
conscience, so I pulled
over onto the shoulder
of the road, took them
off and folded them up
and turned around at the
next crossover. I pulled
up next to her, rolled
down my window, and with
an almost embarrassed
look on my face I said,
"These are brand new, I
just put them on an hour
ago." Do you know, that
girl smiled the biggest
smile, hugged that silly
pair of socks to her
heart and thanked me
wishing me God's
blessings as though I
had given her a million
bucks.
GENEROUS WOMEN
REWARDS AND
GENEROUS WOMEN BLESSINGS
Why am I telling you
this instead of keeping
it to myself, after all,
Jesus said to keep your
generosity secret or you
must settle for the
recognition of men
instead of a reward from
God:
|
Matthew
6:1-4
Take heed
that ye do
not your
alms before
men, to be
seen of
them:
otherwise ye
have no
reward of
your Father
which is in
Heaven.
Therefore
when thou
doest thine
alms, do not
sound a
trumpet
before thee,
as the
hypocrites
do in the
synagogues
and in the
streets,
that they
may have
glory of
men. Verily
I say unto
you, They
have their
reward. But
when thou
doest alms,
let not thy
left hand
know what
thy right
hand doeth:
That thine
alms may be
in secret:
and thy
Father which
seeth in
secret
Himself
shall reward
thee openly.

MY BELOVED WIFE BIBLE VERSES RESEARCH
BELOVED BIBLE STUDY ON BELOVED IN THE BIBLE CONCERN
The reason I share this
with you, isn't for
praise (or I would
probably have told you a
story where I thought I
was a smidgeon more
generous than giving
away a measly pair of used
socks), but rather to
help you
earn more rewards from
God. You see, even
though something may not
mean much to us, it
means the world to
someone less fortunate.
How many times do we
hesitate, postpone, or
even fail to give,
because we don't think
it's an adequate gift?
Nonsense, I say! GIVE!
One little side comment
... When you give to
someone, never
expect anything in
return from them.
Your reward comes from
the Lord ... After this
life.
The state of mind you're
in when you give is very
important, too. With a
willing attitude is how
the Lord wants us to
give.

Mark
12:41-44
And Jesus
sat over
against the
treasury,
and beheld
how the
people cast
money into
the
treasury:
and many
that were
rich cast in
much. And
there came a
certain poor
widow, and
she threw in
two mites,
which make a
farthing.
And He
called unto
Him His
disciples,
and saith
unto them,
Verily I say
unto you,
That this
poor widow
hath cast
more in,
than all
they which
have cast
into the
treasury:
For all they
did cast in
of their
abundance;
but she of
her want did
cast in all
that she
had, even
all her
living. |

Corinthians

MY BELOVED WIFE BIBLE VERSES TEACHINGS
BELOVED BIBLE STUDY ON BELOVED IN THE BIBLE WARNING
Even though we live in a
very materialistic
society and era, the
most expensive,
magnificent things
cannot be taken to
Heaven.
|
1 Timothy
6:7
For we
brought
nothing into
this world,
and it is
certain we
can carry
nothing out. |
|
Matthew
6:19-21
Lay not up
for
yourselves
treasures
upon Earth,
where moth
and rust
doth
corrupt, and
where
thieves
break
through and
steal: But
lay up for
yourselves
treasures in
Heaven,
where
neither moth
nor rust
doth
corrupt, and
where
thieves do
not break
through nor
steal: For
where your
treasure is,
there will
your heart
be also. |
|
Matthew
6:33-34
But seek ye
first the
Kingdom of
God, and His
righteousness;
and all
these things
shall be
added unto
you. Take
therefore no
thought for
the morrow:
for the
morrow shall
take thought
for the
things of
itself.
Sufficient
unto the day
is the evil
thereof. |
|
Luke 12:25
And which of
you with
taking
thought can
add to his
stature one
cubit? |
|
1 Peter
3:8-9
Finally, be
ye all of
one mind,
having
compassion
one of
another,
love as
brethren, be
pitiful, be
courteous:
Not
rendering
evil for
evil, or
railing for
railing: but
contrariwise
blessing;
knowing that
ye are
thereunto
called, that
ye should
inherit a
blessing. |
MY BELOVED WIFE BIBLE VERSES EXPLAINED
BELOVED BIBLE STUDY ON BELOVED IN THE BIBLE ANSWERS
There's an interesting
thing in this scripture
that we didn't talk
about when we studied it
in our previous steps:
|
Matthew
25:40
And the King
shall answer
and say unto
them, Verily
I say unto
you,
Inasmuch as
ye have done
it unto one
of the least
of these my
brethren, ye
have done it
unto me. |
What does it mean "the
least of these my
brethren?" Let me follow
up with another
question; Have you ever
seen homeless people,
and you would have given
them money, but supposed
that they would just
spend it on wine or beer
or drugs, so you decided
not to? The Bible
does teach us to
prove all things, so be
sure you ask the Holy
Spirit to help you
discern. Surely the Lord
doesn't want us to
contribute to things
that aren't righteous.
Since many times you
really don't know
what a person may spend
your charity on, or what
hardships may have
befallen them to want to
spend it on things (that
we in our holier than
thou state of mind)
think unnecessary,
unworthy, or
un-anything, it may
be a good idea to ask
yourself, Would this
person fall into the
category of the "least"
of Jesus' brethren?
GENEROUS WOMEN PURPOSE
AND
GENEROUS WOMEN INTENT
Hmmm, here's another
interesting question.
When God is tallying the
charity that you give to
others, does He make a
note or a deduction if
the receiver of the gift
does not spend it on
something "practical" in
your humble opinion, or
does it only matter that
YOU GAVE FROM YOUR
HEART?

2
Corinthians
9:7
Every man
according as
he purposeth
in his
heart, so
let him
give; not
grudgingly,
or of
necessity:
for God
loveth a
cheerful
giver. |
|
Proverbs
3:27-28
Withhold not
good from
them to whom
it is due,
when it is
in the power
of thine
hand to do
it. Say not
unto thy
neighbour,
Go, and come
again, and
to morrow I
will give;
when thou
hast it by
thee. |
That reminds me of
something I read in a
little book called
"99 Annoying
Attributes of God."
On the front
cover is a subtitle:
Why God is God and
You're Not
The quote from the book
is this:
"God is annoying because
His sense of mercy often
gets in the way of my
sense of justice."
It just dawned on me
that in this same
Proverb that we're
studying, King Lemuel's
mother addresses this
very thing:
|
Proverbs
31:6-7
Give strong
drink unto
him that is
ready to
perish, and
wine unto
those that
be of heavy
hearts. Let
him drink,
and forget
his poverty,
and remember
his misery
no more. |
MY BELOVED WIFE BIBLE VERSES GIVE HOPE
BELOVED BIBLE STUDY ON BELOVED IN THE BIBLE DANGER
When the opportunity
arises for you to help
one of God's children,
don't let it escape by
letting the judgmental
side of you steal your
chance to erase some of
your own sins:
|
1 Peter 4:8
And above
all things
have fervent
charity
among
yourselves:
for charity
shall cover
the
multitude of
sins. |
I like the way Peter
uses the word
fervent in that
scripture. Passionate,
enthusiastic charity!
|
James
2:15-16
If a brother
or sister be
naked, and
destitute of
daily food,
And one of
you say unto
them, Depart
in peace, be
ye warmed
and filled;
notwithstanding
ye give them
not those
things which
are needful
to the body;
what doth it
profit?
|
James seems to have the
same opinion ... Don't
just say "I'll pray for
ya. Good luck."
MY BELOVED WIFE BIBLE VERSES OF LOVE
BELOVED BIBLE STUDY ON BELOVED IN THE BIBLE PASSAGES
There are plenty of ways
to give. Again, money
isn't the only thing the
Lord counts as charity.
Donate your time,
talent, service, food,
clothing, prayer, it doesn't
matter what you give, as
long as it's from your
heart. If you did an
inventory of your home
and gave to charity all
the things that you
haven't used in the past
year, how many things do
you suppose you really
need to
live? How much money and
time are spent on
maintaining things that
people don't really ever
use? Would you guess
that most couples own 12
dinner plates, but
rarely use more than
four of them at one
time? And what about the
fine china that sits in
the cabinet except for
Christmas dinner, and
when you use it you're a
nervous wreck that it
may get chipped? How
often do you use your
linen napkins? How many
coffee cups does a
family really need, and
how many do they
actually have? Bath
towels? Pairs of shoes?
Living rooms? Most
people believe that they
need more. My friend,
the more you have, the
more you have to worry
about.
The Words of Jesus:
|
Luke
12:15-21
... Take
heed, and
beware of
covetousness:
for a man's
life
consisteth
not in the
abundance of
the things
which he
possesseth.
And He spake
a parable
unto them,
saying,
The ground
of a certain
rich man
brought
forth
plentifully:
And he
thought
within
himself,
saying, What
shall I do,
because I
have no room
where to
bestow my
fruits? And
he said,
This will I
do: I will
pull down my
barns, and
build
greater; and
there will I
bestow all
my fruits
and my
goods. And I
will say to
my soul,
Soul, thou
hast much
goods laid
up for many
years; take
thine ease,
eat, drink,
and be
merry. But
God said
unto him,
Thou fool,
this night
thy soul
shall be
required of
thee: then
whose shall
those things
be, which
thou hast
provided? So
is he that
layeth up
treasure for
himself, and
is not rich
toward God. |
For those of you who
have issues with giving
up your job to serve the
Lord because you think
you would be bored out
of your mind with
nothing to do, or you
believe that your
talents are so limited
that you can't think of
how little old you might
possibly serve the Lord
in an effective way,
charity may
be your niche.
MY BELOVED WIFE BIBLE VERSES CONCLUSION
BELOVED BIBLE STUDY ON BELOVED IN THE BIBLE SUMMARY
Volunteering is a
fantastic way of serving
the Lord. There are
countless Christian
organizations that serve
fellow Christians, the
poor and needy ... You
name it. You could even
start one yourself.
Create a way to give
your love to God's
people. You've heard of
E-Bay, well why on
Earth, with as many
needy souls as there
are, is there not a
Charity-Bay? Sure seems
like someone could make
something like that
work, with the hand of
God helping. Like
a Goodwill online, or a
Salvation Army, but just
a commonwealth of giving
and receiving between
charitable and needy
souls ... Couldn't that
work?
|
Proverbs
10:12
Hatred
stirreth up
strifes: but
love
covereth all
sins. |
The secret of generosity
is in the love that
accompanies it. Without
love, the giving turns into
something completely
different, like
obligation, bribery,
recognition,
competition, or many
other ugly things. Don't
forget to include love
when you're freely
giving to others.
Don't you just love our
cookbook? God clearly
spells out His will in
the Bible. We can find
most of what He wants us
to do written on its
pages. How should we
live? How should we
treat other people? How
can we please God? It's
all there. If we follow
the recipes He created,
He will bless us.
And as always, reflect
on God's Grace, every
day of your life. He
loves you so very, very
much.
