You Are A Proverbs 31 Woman

You Are A Proverbs 31 Woman

Yes, you are a Proverbs 31 Woman…even if you may feel that you are not up to par with the all that is portrayed of this woman in the Bible.

There’s something you must know about the attributes of this Proverbs 31 Woman and why she is so important to follow after. This passage of scripture in the Bible is not meant to bash or chastise women but it is meant to say you can be this; you can do this just as gracefully and eloquently as she did.

I’m going to show you just how lovely you are and how virtuous your life truly is.

The Virtuous Woman of Proverbs 31 was a woman of strength and character. Let’s take a look at what she focused on and what she deemed her top priorities. I believe that you will find you are more like the Proverbs 31 Woman than you think.

HER PRIORITIES

• The Lord (Proverbs 31:30)

• Her Husband (Proverbs 31:11-12, 23, 28)

• Her Children (Proverbs 31:28, 15, 21, 26-27)

• Her Household (Proverbs 31:15, 21, 27)

• Her ‘female servants’ or household workers (Proverbs 31:15)

• The poor (Proverbs 31:20)

• The needy (Proverbs 31:20)

This woman had her priorities straight and she knew the order in which to care for those in her home and those around her. Just like her, you live to honor the Lord, you want to gracefully serve your husband and children, and you are kind to the poor and needy. Your priorities are there.

HER ACTIVITIES

• She shops for the best quality she can afford (Proverbs 31:13-14, 22, 24)

• She works willingly with her hands. (Proverbs 31:13, 31)

• She provides clothing for her household and for herself (Proverbs 31: 13, 19, 21-22)

• She gets up early to make sure everyone has food for the day. (Proverbs 31:15)

• She ensures that her family does not run out of supplies and prepares ahead for harsh circumstances. (Proverbs 31:11, 18, 21, 25)

• She carefully invests her money and works to profit from her investment. (Proverbs 31:16, 18, 24)

• She helps meet the needs of the poor. (Proverbs 31:20)

• She watches over the activities of her household. (Proverbs 31:27)

Ok, my lovely friend, raise your hand if you like to shop! I’m raising my hand over here. I believe this is just part of us. We want to focus on properly dressing ourselves, husband and children. If you’re like me, then you love looking for a bargain. (The next time your husband complains about you shopping too much, just let him know you are trying to follow after the Proverbs 31 Woman. I’m just kidding!)

We ladies work constantly with our hands, we see to our children, we focus on our household, we make sure that our children are fed.

You have the lovely traits and characteristics of this woman that is so highly esteemed and you don’t even realize it.

HER CHARACTER

She is characterized by:

• trustworthiness (v. 11)

• consistency (v. 12, 18)

• high standards (v. 13, 16)

• industriousness and productivity (v. 13-16, 19, 22, 24, 27)

• initiative (v. 16, 22, 24)

• service (v. 15, 20)

• strength (v. 17, 25)

• honor (v. 25)

• compassion (v. 20)

• confidence rather than worry about the future (v. 22, 25)

• wise words and instruction spoken with love (v. 26)

HER BLESSING

• She is far more precious than jewels (v. 10)

• Her children rise up and call her blessed (v. 28)

• She is trusted, praised and prized by her husband. (v. 11-12, 28-29)

• The community’s respect for her husband is enhanced. (v. 23, 31)

• She will be praised. (v. 30)

• She deserves the reward of her labor. (v. 31)

• She is known and receives praise for her works (v. 31)

This woman established priorities, She works her daily routines, she extends her energies beyond her home, and she enjoys rewards for her faithfulness.

First and foremost, this woman feared the Lord. This was the backing to the tireless and joyful work that she did every single day. She did this to honor God, her husband, and her children. I know that when I clean up after my family day after day it can get tiring but I count it all joy. I do it to honor my family.
