here is the passage:
Leslie Ludy Lost Art of True BeautyA woman of honor must first die before she can live. Christ must become her all in all, even above her desires for romance, love, marriage, family, career, ministry, or accomplishments.
- She is dead to self-interest
A woman of honor must be sure in her step because she knows her Commander. She knows that her King is faithful in all things, and He can be trusted implicitly. Instead of worrying, fretting, or manipulating, she prays and waits for the Lord, knowing He will provide all things needed for life and godliness. She does not need to labor to become self-confident because all her confidence is found in Christ alone.
- She is confident in Christ
Proverbs 31 portrays the mighty strength of a true woman of honor. “Who can find a virtuous woman?” (verse 10 KJV). The word virtuous here is actually a masculine noun that means “strength, might, valor, and power.” A woman of honor is a mighty, valiant, valorous woman full of strength and conquering power. She has superhuman strength, because her strength comes from God. She has unmatched valor. She valiantly stomps out whatever stands in the way of God’s purposes. Nothing hinders her. Her life is a living display of triumph, victory, and the glory of God.
- She is valiant
A woman of honor must be willing to fight on behalf of the weak and the oppressed, willing to give up security and comforts in order to fight her King’s battles. She reaches out her hands to the poor and stretches out her hands to the needy (Proverbs 31:20)
- She is a rescuer of the weak
A woman of honor must not gossip, slander; backstab, criticize, or complain. Her speech must be gracious and respectful at all times. She must not take pleasure in worldly crudeness and humor or in cutting others down. She must always represent her King’s glory and nature in the words she speaks.
- She is an upholder of decorum
A woman of honor is single minded in priority and undeterred by the charm of sexuality, the enticement of alcohol, or the allure of worldly wealth. She must be unavailable to the lusts of flesh, closed to the invitation of compromise, clear minded and strong of presence at all times. The temptations of the world mustn’t be looked at, listened to, or entertained even for the slightest moment. She must not take pleasure in evil, but rejoice in the truth.
- She is harnessed of soul
A woman of honor holds her conscience sacred. Her word is her bond, her unbreakable covenant. She does not lie. She does not manipulate. She does not control others. She is a woman of sterling integrity. Others can rely upon her implicitly. Both her earthly and heavenly husband have “full confidence” in her (Proverbs 31:11 NIV) She does not transgress her conscience for any price.
- She is unable to violate her conscience
A woman of honor must demonstrate the regal disposition of heaven. She garners respect with the purity and uprightness of her life. And she must be willing to rebuke those, even of her closest fellowship, that veer from the narrow path of the cross. She must be quick to forgive and unwilling to retain a grudge.
- She is marked by purity and viture
A woman of honor is ready to let go of her earthly life for the sake of her King. She must not count her life dear unto herself but gladly spill it out for the sakeo f the One who gave her everything.
- She is unafraid of death
A woman of honor is never beneath the thumb of a man’s tyranny. She is not a slave to the lusts of flesh, the approval of the world, or the pressure of pop culture. If she suffers bodily imprisonment for her belief in Christ, her soul cannot be touched or imprisoned.
- She is a slave to none but Christ
A woman of honor refuses praise and adulation, but rather deflects it heavenward. She does not claim the glory rightfully due her heavenly King. She does not heed
- She is untouched by the world’s opinion
either praise of blame, but looks only to the opinion of the Almighty. A woman of honor finds her confidence in the smile of God and from no mere human countenance.
