It honors God and strengthens the bond between husband and wife.  Embrace Biblical Teachings on Purity The Bible offers clear guidance on maintaining purity within marriage. Hebrews 13:4 (KJV) states: "Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge." This verse emphasizes the sanctity of marriage and the importance of keeping the marriage bed pure. Cultivate a Heart of Faithfulness Faithfulness is the cornerstone of a pure marriage. Proverbs 5:18-19 (KJV) encourages husbands and wives to delight in each other: "Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth. Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love." Embrace faithfulness by cherishing and valuing your s...

As Christian women, we are called to reflect God's love and compassion to those in need. The Bible reminds us in James 1:27 (KJV), "Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world."  This verse challenges us to actively care for the poor, widows, and orphans, embodying the heart of Christ in our actions. Helping the vulnerable can take many forms. It might mean volunteering at a local shelter, donating to organizations that support widows, orphans, homeless and women escaping abusive husbands or other relatives, or simply offering a listening ear to someone in need. You can donate food, clothing, toiletry items, and even children's books, toys and bibles. Prayer is also a powerful way to intercede on their behalf. As we lift them up to God, we align our hearts with His and invite His provision and comfort into their lives. Christian women can also suppor...

1 Peter 3 offers profound wisdom for Christian women, especially those whose husbands do not share their faith. Let’s explore how these verses can guide us in living out our faith (allowing Christ to live in and through us in the details of our lives) and potentially winning our husbands to Christ through our godly living.  “Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives; While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear.” (1 Peter 3:1-2, KJV) 1 Peter is written specifically to those Jewish believers (and any gentile believers) during the tribulation period. The 7 year tribulation, also called "Jacobs trouble" starts sometime after the church the Body of Christ is raptured up into heaven. It is the resumption of God's prophetic program with Israel. Although 1 Peter is specifically written to those believers going through the tribulation period, the...

In a world that constantly pushes us to seek more, it can be challenging to find true contentment. As Christian women, we are called to find our satisfaction and peace in Christ.  “Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.” -Philippians 4:11 The apostle Paul, writing from a place of imprisonment, shares a profound lesson on contentment. Despite his circumstances, Paul learned to be content in every situation. This contentment was not based on external conditions but on his relationship with Christ. Contentment is a state of the heart and mind. It is about trusting God’s provision and being grateful for His blessings. When we focus on what we have rather than what we lack, we cultivate a spirit of thankfulness. This gratitude shifts our perspective and helps us see God’s goodness in every aspect of our lives. Proverbs 15:16 reminds us,  “Better is little with the fear of the LORD than great treasure and trouble ...
