Proverbs 31:10 (KJV) Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
Proverbs 31:29-31 (KJV) Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.
[30] Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.
[31] Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.
THE WORD OF GOD FOR THE PEOPLE OF GOD
VERY BRIEFLY I WOULD LIKE REASONING WITH
YOU ON THE TOPIC
(GIVE ME MY FLOWERS WHILE I`M LIVING SO I)
(CAN SEE THE BEAUTY THAT THEY BRING)
MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS
THE WRITER OF THE TEXT BEFORE US IS KING
LEMUEL
AND HE FOCUS ON THE ATTRIBUTES OF WHAT IS
DESCRIBED AS A VIRTUOUS WOMAN
AND THE WORD VIRTURE IN THE TEXT REFERS TO
THE MORAL AND MENTAL QUAILITES OF A
WOMAN COMBINED WITH A SPRIT OF LOVE
AND THE FEAR OF GOD
AND AS WE EXAMINE THE TEXT
IT`S IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT EACH
VERSE BEGINS WITH A DIFFERENT LETTER FROM
THE HEBREW ALPHABET
YOU SEE MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS
ALEPH -IS FOR A WOMAN WHO IS FULL OF
VIRTURE
BETH -REFERS TO THE TRUST SHE SHARES WITH
HER FAMILY
DALETH -STANDS FOR HOW SHE SEEK HER WARES
AND EACH LETTER GIVES US A GOOD VIRTURE OF
A WOMAN
WHO IS EQUIP TO RECEIVE HER FLOWERS WHILE
SHE IS LIVING SO SHE CAN SEE THE BEAUTY THAT
THEY BRING
AND I NEED TO PAUSE AND SAY TO THE
PLEASANT VALLEY CHURCH FAMILY
TO CONTINUE TO LOVE MOTHER ROSIE MC
GOWEN FOR SHE IS A JEWEL IN THE KINGDOM OF
GOD
MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS
WE WILL DISCOVER IN VERSE 26 IN THE TEXT
THAT A VIRTUOUS WOMAN HAS 4 CHARACTER
TRAITS THAT ARE UNIQUE
SHE IS A WOMAN OF STRENGHT-HONOR -WISDOM
AND KINDNESS
AS WELL A WOMAN WHO IS LOYAL TO HER
FAMILY
VERSES 13-- 21 DESCRIBES HER AS A
INDUSTRIOUS WOMAN WHO FINDS WAYS TO
PROVIDE FOR HER FAMILY
AND WHEN SHE CAN`T BUY WHAT HER FAMILY
NEEDS
SHE MAKE IT HERSELF TO THE BEST OF HER
ABILITY
FOR NEITHER WEATHER OR SEASONS WILL STOP
HER FROM PROVIDING FOR HER FAMILY
FOR VERSE 21 REVEALS THAT SHE IS A WOMAN
THAT IS NOT AFRAID OF THE SNOW
FOR HER HOUSEHOLD IS CLOTHE WITH SCARLET
BUT NOT ONLY DOES SHE CARETH FOR HER
FAMILY
VERSE 20 TELLS US
SHE STRETCH OUT HER HANDS TO HELP THE
POOR AND THE NEEDY
AND IS CONCERN ABOUT THE SICK
FOR SHE VISIT THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN
HOSIPITALIZE
AS WELL SHE PREPARES FOOD FOR THE SHUT-IN
BUT MOST OF ALL SHE IS A WOMAN WHO FEARS
THE LORD
OH MY BROTHERS AND SISTER
LOCATED DEEP DOWN IN THE FABRIC OF THE
TEXT
ARE SOME RICH SPRITUAL NUGGETS ABOUT A
WOMAN WHO FEARS THE LORD
THE 1ST SPRITUAL NUGGET I SEE IS THAT SHE IS A
WOMAN OF WISDOM
FOR HER CONVERSATION IS FAR REMOVED FROM
IDLE GOSSIP
BECAUSE SHE IS FAMILIAR WITH THE WORD OF
GOD
AND REALIZES THAT WISDOM COMES FROM
APPLYING THE WORD OF GOD TO HER LIFE
AND SHE UNDERSTANDS THAT WISDOM IS MORE
PRECIOUS THAN RUBIES
BECAUSE THE FEAR OF THE LORD IS THE
BEGINNING OF KNOWLEDGE AND ONLY FOOLS
DESPISE WISDOM AND DISCIPLINE
BUT NOT ONLY IS SHE A WOMAN OF WISDOM
BUT SHE IS ALSO A WOMAN OF PRAYER -FOR SHE
REALIZES THAT PRAYER CHANGES THINGS AND
THAT THERE IS POWER IN PRAYER
AND AS LONG AS SHE HAS A HEART TO PRAY
HEAVEN HAS AN EAR TO HEAR
BUT NOT ONLY IS SHE A WOMAN OF WISDOM AND
PRAYER
BUT SHE IS A WOMAN OF PIETY--AND THE
REASON WHY IS SHE FEARS THE LORD AND
LOOKS TOWARD HEAVEN AND TELLS THE LORD
THANK YOU
BECAUSE SHE REALIZES THAT THE WELL OF
HAPPINESS THAT IS FOUND IN HER HOME IS
BECAUSE THE GOODNESS OF THE LORD
AND BECAUSE SHE IS A WOMAN OF WISDOM
PRAYER AND PIETY
I HEAR KING LEMUEL SAYING
AFFECTION AND HONOR ARE APART OF THOSE
NEAREST TO HER
FOR HER CHILDREN WILL RISE UP AND CALL HER
BLESS
AND STRENGHT AND DIGINTY IS IN HER HOME
AND SHE HAS SECURITY AGAINST
WANTS-BECAUSE GOD IS STILL ON THE THRONE
AND SHE REALIZES THAT GOD IS GOOD ALL THE
TIME AND ALL THE TIME GOD IS GOOD
BUT CAN I TELL YOU ABOUT THE GOODNESS OF
THE LORD
