Becoming a godly woman is a battle!  We need daily encouragement from the Bible, which is where 22 Character Traits Of A Godly Woman came from.

We are confronted with lies daily that contradict God’s Word about what and who a woman is.  It can be a conflicted journey to fight this battle.   It is, however, a battle worth fighting.

As we approach the character traits of a godly woman, it would be easy to oversimplify the process into some checklist.  That is not my intention.

 

Biblical Womanhood = FREEDOM

Not a list of things to do or become.

 

At, the center of life as a child of God is the relationship each one of us has with our Savior.  However, it is important to approach biblical womanhood with the end goal insight which is to glorify God and ENJOY Him! We have to take a look at God’s words in order to do that.

My CHALLENGE to each one of you is to stop listening to what the world has to say about being a woman and use the only reliable and time-tested source as your guide, the Bible.  It is my sincerest hope that this list will be a help and an encouragement to each of us.  I pray we will clearly be able to see all that God has accomplished in our lives so far and be filled with gratefulness!

 

I have compiled a list of THE CHARACTER TRAITS of a GODLY WOMAN from the book of Titus chapters 1-3 and also from the book of 1 Timothy chapter 3.

 

 

 

22 Character Traits Of A Godly Woman

 

1. She is dignified.

2. Not a slanderer or gossip, she speaks evil of no one.

3. Faithful in all things.

4. Sober-minded.

5. She wears respectable apparel.

6. Modest in dress and behavior.

7. She is self-controlled.

8. Ready to do good works.

9. She has a quiet and gentle spirit.

10. Submissive to one’s husband.

11. Reverent behavior.

12. She does not drink much wine.

13. Teaches what is good.

14. Loves her husband and children.

15. She is pure.

16. She works at home.

17. Submissive to authorities.

18. Obedient to God’s Word.

19. Avoids quarreling.

20. Shows perfect courtesy to all people.

21. Has nothing to do with irreverent things.

22. Trains herself for godliness.

 

Now, that is quite a list!  

Do you possess all these qualities?  I sure don’t, not yet.

 

Remember, you are not alone on this journey!  Christ is your ever-present help as you begin or continue on the path of becoming a godly woman.  One caution, remember this is a process that takes time.   Join me in praying for God to accomplish these qualities in each one of our lives.  We can only do this with God’s help!  Remember God’s power is made perfect in our weakness.  The first step in becoming a godly woman is to repent and acknowledge we are unable to do anything without His power and grace.
