Qualities of the Virtuous, Godly Woman Proverbs 31:10~31. REMEMBER that YOU will stand before the Almighty to give full account of your life. You will answer to Him for how you either repented and obeyed HIS order of creation and purpose for women, or rebelled with all the other many jezebels today. All females are wholly accountable to our Maker to be His worshipper, to be a wife who loves your husband, and a mother to the children He brings out of that marriage – to train them up in His holy ways (Genesis 1:27-28; 2:18; Proverbs 22:6, etc.). The LORD didn’t call any woman to be a “career woman.” Think ROLES. This was Satan’s distraction from the beginning. That doesn’t mean the Proverbs 31 virtuous woman isn’t industrious and yet she does this from home, as a keeper at home (Titus 2:3-5). America began its decline when the women left the home. It is highly recommended that you follow Lori Alexander, The Transformed Wife on social media.
Question:
So, the Bible prohibits women from fulfilling the role that our Creation clearly ordain for men to fulfill. Yet, to balance things out, what can a women do, in ministry sense?
Answer:
Hi. Good question. Romans 16 features several women who served. Women are blessed to serve in a myriad of hospitable ways with a meek and quiet spirit, including:
- Telling others about Jesus (John 4:28-30),
- Loving, reverencing and obeying their husbands (Eph. 5:22, 33; Titus 2:5),
- Prophesying (Acts 21:9)
- Teaching the younger women (Titus 2:4),
- Remaining in the role which God created for them,
- Making her husband stand out, loving him, taking care of the household, being industrious, buying and selling real estate, etc. (Titus 2:5; Proverbs 31).
- Etc.
“Personally I love being a Gal for my God…. I know my place it is a very happy good place, divine order, my Father God, my husband, they are my Heads, our lives flow like a river, we are established on a firm foundation….. yes we may be old fashioned as some say, I say we are God Fashioned!” Anne Sedler
WHERE God Looks
“For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him.” 2 Chronicles 16:9
God isn’t looking on your makeup or outer appearance, but on your heart.
“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;
1Pe 3:2 While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear.
1Pe 3:3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;
1Pe 3:4 But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
1Pe 3:5 For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:
1Pe 3:6 Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement. ” 1 Peter 3:1-6
Jezebellian feminism is destroying our country, all by itself. In God’s Word women are told to be “keepers at home” Titus 2:1-5…. yet this in no way hinders her from being super industrious as we see in Proverbs 31.
Research every single verse in God’s Word to learn this whole doctrine for God’s most beautiful creation – women – who are to be loved and cherished by men but never put before God (like Adam and Ahab and many today are doing).
“Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.” Proverbs 31:10
Note in this chapter 31 of Proverbs, that the virtuous woman is multi-faceted. She is not limited. She is certainly not self-centered. She is industrious, loving, faithful to God and her husband. She cooks. She serves. She is fulfilled. She blesses her children. Her children rise up and call her blessed. She carefully builds her house in all she does. All of her words and actions and attitudes elevate her husband and children because she daily basks in the presence of the One who made and saved her soul.
“Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands.” Proverbs 14:1
Jezebel destroys while the God-fearing woman builds up and blesses. She is a meek, quiet-spirited, and humble servant. She is crucified with Christ and so has no self-agenda. She is given over to the Savior. In the heart of the God-fearing woman is no excuse-making process. She knows that Jezebel must die. Every trace of Jezebellian must be vanquished. It must be crucified.
No words can possibly express how powerful the impact of a God-fearing woman who refuses to walk according to the counsel of the ungodly but rather obediently adheres to the words of her God and Judge – Jesus Christ. Read Psalm 1.
The virtuous woman fears the LORD and not men – she refuses to follow the masses of women who are in rebellion against the One who made them for a very special purpose. She walks in that divinely ordained place, in the order in which He made her to function in the role of a woman, wife, mother.
The woman of virtue is a blessing and a gift to all she comes into contact with. She never leaves them as she found them but always lifted upward. She is self-less and joyfully serves the Savior. Her priorities are squared 1. Jesus, 2. her husband, 3. her children, 4. The body of Christ, 5. the lost…etc. God-fearing women are precious jewels that the world cannot properly live without!!!!!
Pr 31:10 Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
Pr 31:11 The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.
Pr 31:12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.
Pr 31:13 She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.
Pr 31:14 She is like the merchants’ ships; she bringeth her food from afar.
Pr 31:15 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.
Pr 31:16 She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.
Pr 31:17 She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms.
Pr 31:18 She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night.
Pr 31:19 She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff.
Pr 31:20 She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.
Pr 31:21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet.
Pr 31:22 She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple.
Pr 31:23 Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land.
Pr 31:24 She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant.
Pr 31:25 Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.
Pr 31:26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.
Pr 31:27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
Pr 31:28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.
Pr 31:29 Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.
Pr 31:30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.
Pr 31:31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.
PRAYER: Father, You made me, found me in my sins, and saved me. I love You. I am Your clay and You are my Potter. You are in control, not me. You must increase and I must decrease this very moment. Please pour the water of Your Holy Spirit upon me so that I will be pliable, teachable, obedient, and humbled before Your Majesty. Make me what You desire as You stated in Your Holy Word. Bless my life to delight in You wholly and to be exactly what You ordained for Your women and made plain in Your Word. Into Your hands I commend my spirit. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

“I do feel a woman’s place is at home , as a helpmeet to her husband and the home manager….boy that GOES against the world doesn’t it?/ TITUS says so…” Cheryl B.
Reply:
It sure does sister and yet, a virtuous woman, so very gifted of God, can multi-task ….. such as the many things the virtuous woman is seen participating in in Prov 31. First and foremost she took care of her husband and children and is also seen doing other things such as buying and selling real estate, etc.
Comment from a God-Fearing Woman:
In the midst of the unrelenting bombardment of filth and perversion poured at every corner of society upon women, to lead them astray from their Creator’s plan for their lives, the following is a response to this article from a Christian woman who has the desire to be what God made her to be:
“Thank you so much for your articles for women! … its so refreshing to read an article that is from the word of God! … when desire meets truth something good is bound to come from it.” Stacy K.

Mexico Mission Momentum Part 41
The first shipment of Spanish Bibles has arrived!!!
A staggering miracle has befallen Maria’s precious life and she still can’t believe it!
ALL because YOU have said “YES JESUS, I am going to lift this beloved sister in Christ, this laborer for our LORD in prayer…. and you are giving to help her!
You my friend are guilty of delivering glory to God and a death blow to the enemy of all souls!
We are now finding out that Maria works and 3 different locations each day. This is how she is able to distribute hundreds of JESUS tracts daily.
When Jesus says “I will build my church” He was not speaking about collecting money to build physical buildings. That came in with the pagan catholic church hundreds of years later. No, Jesus was speaking of building His kingdom in the hearts of men, beginning with the revelation that He is the Messiah (Matthew 16:18).
If the money you give isn’t going directly into the Great Commission Jesus gave us, you are wasting your giving (Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-20).
Building up Gospel laboring fruit-filled diligent disciples such as Juan and Maria, is building Christ’s church! Oil the wheels that roll!
“The blessed word says that freely we receive, freely we give. For from His fullness we all receive grace upon grace, blessing upon blessing, brother. So Paul said, ‘Woe to me if I do not do it!’ Then we must do the Great Commission that God gave us for His honor and glory.” Juan
Juan and Maria are being continually tended to, supported with prayer etc.
Brother Mark went to spend some time with sister Maria for the first time and found out she needs a new cell phone. So, we bought her one……..
Maria is a widow and works 3 different “jobs” that are tips only. Her rental is $100 per month. She only told us this information because we asked her. Maybe someone would be prompted to begin paying sister Maria’s rent? God is able amen.
“That we might be fellowhelpers to the truth.”
We’ve been meeting with brother Juan and sister Maria regularly, sometimes daily.
“We therefore ought to receive such, that we might be fellowhelpers to the truth.” 3 John 8
Spiritually and supply wise, refreshing and re-stocking these disciples (and others) is our part, our opportunity and privilege. And you have been a big part of this saints. Your prayer and support have been and are vital.
Recently restocked brother Juan and brought Maria about 2k tracts last night
She was elated.
Your prayers and support are making this possible.
“I will never cease to be amazed by how hungry these people are for God! From all the pictures it looks like they begin to read the Jesus tract as soon as they receive it! In America, it’s very hard to find people who truly want Jesus because they are rich and in need of nothing and have no idea how wretched, miserable, poor, and blind they are. Rev 3:17. Including those so-called Christians! Who just try to put Jesus over their filthy rags! Nothing but dead religion. Yet they believe they are good and will be in heaven, when inside they are white-washed tombs. It’s refreshing to see the hunger of the beloved Mexico people! Thank you for sharing all these stories of how the Lord is touching hearts! Blessed to be a small part of this ministry.” Karen Cochran | Mission Mexico
Your prayers and support are going a long way to help Mission Mexico!!
The Bibles God’s people sent just arrived and will be distributed to incarcerated Mexicans soon.
The JESUS tract is being distributed daily by the hundreds with the Word of God spoken in those exchanges.
“WE are labourers TOGETHER with God.” 1 Corinthians 3:9
“For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.” Hebrews 6:10
Please allow me to remind you … that your prayers and financial fuel are essential to what is going on here and each of Christ’s disciples shall be rewarded equally, fully—no matter what part they play! 1 Samuel 30:24
Recently I became desperate as the need for financial supply dropped like a bless-ed bomb within a short window of time. Instead of trusting I panicked instead of taking it to the LORD and trusting Him. The reception of Juan and Maria has been earth shaking, a type of sign from God that He loves and desires to save the bless-ed and beautiful people of Mexico. America has rejected the LORD saints.
“And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.” Matthew 10:14
Can you even believe that our LORD is using us, you and I and others, to give His glorious Gospel to the nation, the people of Mexico?!
“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. 14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?” Romans 10:13-14
The Gospel momentum continues to grow:
From brother Juan: “Brother Cresenciano asked me if I had any Jesus pamphlets he could take with him and hand out, and said he wanted to serve his neighbor with love. Glory to God!”
Over 20,000 JESUS tracts in print here in Mexico. More than 12,000 have been distributed to date. We are now beginning to take in love offerings to print the next 10,000 JESUS tracts.
Okay, from now on, if you see a pic of someone holding a stash or stack of JESUS tracts, it’s because they agreed to do so, they asked for more tracts in order to reach their world here in Mexico with the Gospel of Jesus. Gospel momentum!
Brother Juan and sister Maria and several others in Christ are blazing a Gospel trail (Mark 1:45). Jesus is coming.
Thank you for lifting Mission Mexico, the people of Mexico, in prayer.
Thank you for praying for Mission Mexico.
Your prayers and support are fueling the reaching of scores of precious Mexican people, daily!
You have the same reward as the foot soldiers….
1 Samuel 30:24
“For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.” Luke 19:10

“Cursed be the Man that Trusteth in Man” [podcast]
A Nuclear Revelation
“Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.” Jeremiah 17:5
“Cursed be the man that trusteth in man” is a powerful verse from the Bible, commonly associated with a specific warning against relying on human strength rather than God.”
So many act like Spurgeon or some other mere man’s writings are on the same level as Holy Scripture. NOT! They prove their idolatry. They are in sin. They glory in mere men and not the LORD! Hell awaits. Jeremiah 17:5; Isaiah 2:22; 1 Corinthians 1:29-31, etc.
God calls us to worship, love, seek, trust, and obey Him as the ultimate authority of our lives in this world.
Another example of this is the idolatry of the demonic fraud CS Lewis!
THIS JUST IN:
“Amen! Amen for Prov 10:22. All glory be to Him!
By the grace of God I discovered last night your website, praise Him, in search for exposure on CS Lewis.
By the grace of God I learnt as a baby believer, 20 years ago, that his teachings are dangerous including that witchcraft book and movie, Narnia. Sadly, so called mature Christians in the UK are considering him a saint, a born again believer.
I sent prayerfully ( as I expected backlashes) to my friend last night, a few links exposing CS Lewis including the photo from your website which is brilliant exposure, praise Him but she is still claiming that he ” was truly a born again” ….. sending me his videos! It’s a principle: I don’t watch, read listen to CS Lewis and many others! The Bible is so rich in teachings, why do I need CS Lewis!? !?
My friend is a mature believer, born again believer for over 60-70 years and she cannot see it!
I had to use the VPN and duckduck search engine to get the website exposing CS Lewis, as in the UK, nothing will come up! Mostly of the Christians are bewitched by Narnia and Lord of the Rings! No wonder the country is in such a state of delusion! May the Lord have mercy!
Many blessings in His Name, V.”
“Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of?” Isaiah 2:22
Those who look to men, who receive un-biblical counsel instead of testing it against the Word of God, are trusting in mere man and have brought a curse upon themselves (Jeremiah 17:5-6; Acts 17:10-11; 2 Timothy 3:16-17, etc.). Those who look anywhere except to the LORD Himself are idolaters, are committing spiritual adultery, and will without exception depart from Him and be lost (v. 5). Their names “shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters” (v. 13). The phrase “written in the earth” is in contrast to their names being “written in heaven” (Luke 10:20; Hebrews 12:23). Hell is in the bowels of the earth and that’s where every single person who is not looking wholly to the LORD will spend eternity (Revelation 20:11-15).
Let me get this straight, you pretend to be saved and yet run to some foolish sinner to get drugged for lack of peace or ability to sleep or depression. You are completely deceived and God is calling you to repent now. If you knew Him, would you not be trusting Him and not sinful mere men? “Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD (Jeremiah 17:5).
You’ve tried the CURSE and it never worked…. Are you ready to let CHRIST make you whole?
Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD. 6 For he shall be like the heath in the desert (spiritually dry, desolate), and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited. 7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is. 8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit. 9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? 10 I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings. 11 As the partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool. 12 A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary. 13 O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters. 14 Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.” Jeremiah 17:5-14
Psychology/psychobabble, therapy from mere men, sinners…. is a scam, and leaves the victim without hope. Jesus Christ is the only hope for man’s core dilemma—which is sin! ANY person pointing you to a “THE-RAPIST” is demon inspired. They speak against the Word of God and are the child of the devil! See Colossians 2:6-10. SINNERS need the Savior—not some sinner with an indoctrination in the fine of art of applying bandages, never getting to the root. Repent now (Jeremiah 17:9). Jesus alone can make a man whole! (Luke 4:18)
Man’s therapy and psychobabble are laughably insufficient and have never once gotten to the root issue of man’s dilemma which is sin. Jesus says that He “came into the world to save sinners” (1 Timothy 1:15).
Drugs and psychobabble are laughable mere band aids to rob unbelievers, gullible dupes of their money.
“Jesus Christ maketh thee whole”
Only One can make you whole—the One who made you and died and rose again for you.
“And Peter said unto him, Aeneas, Jesus Christ maketh thee whole: arise, and make thy bed. And he arose immediately.” Acts 9:34
“Yep that’s me, the woman with the Alabaster box. And that is all I need—my alabaster box and Jesus! No need for meds or to be psycho-analyzed by some quack. One touch from Jesus is all I need! Just as the woman who touched the hem of His garment and was immediately healed! Luke 8: 43-48. One touch is all she needed.” Karen Cochran

Modern Day Cult of Personality Exposed [podcast]
What is the Cult of Personality?
“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” 1 John 4:1
Beware when you see any mere man enshrined, basically worshipped by his followers. This is all too common in today’s church world and sometimes it’s very subtle. When people begin putting what a mere man says above what God says in His Word, when they quote him instead of the Bible, you know you have a cult.
One source notes:
“A cult of personality, or a cult of the leader, is the result of an effort to create an idealized and heroic image of an admirable leader, often through unquestioning flattery and praise.”‘
CS Lewis has a cult following today, 100%. I’ve encountered it first hand. These people don’t care what you show them as far as the blatant falsehoods he spoke, and have soul tied their affections to him and will defend him no matter what.
A quick search on “what CS Lewis said about the Catholic church”…
“As an Anglican, C.S. Lewis shared many beliefs with the Catholic Church, including the Real Presence in the Eucharist, the necessity of confession, and a belief in Purgatory. However, he explicitly rejected papal authority, the concept of papal infallibility, and certain Marian doctrines.
Shared Beliefs
Lewis held a deeply sacramental and traditional view of Christianity, which aligned closely with Catholic theology:
The Sacraments: He regularly went to confession to a priest and viewed the Eucharist as central to the faith.
The Afterlife: He famously argued that “our souls demand Purgatory”, writing that we would naturally want to be cleansed of our sins before standing in God’s presence.
Devotion: He had a high view of saints and appreciated traditional liturgical practices.”
The same is true for modern day celebrities such as Candace Owens. On a recent live broadcast where she interviewed a man, he showed her live on air, that she was wrong about several things and kindly asked her to apologize several times. Regrettably, Candace was unwilling to apologize, and most of her cult followers backed her up, cheered her on.
She was called to account for false info and didn’t apologize when asked to.
Her followers cheered her on, never stopping to question things.
Their hearts are set on her not Christ (Colossians 3:1-4).
No matter WHAT she says, they believe it.
Wow.
Jesus says:
“I receive not honour from men. … 44 How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?” John 5:41, 44
By saying this, Jesus condemns putting trust in any mere man.
Jesus makes it clear here that anyone who puts their heart affections in a mere man or woman, is unable to believe on the LORD Jesus Christ for eternal life.
“And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another. 7 For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?” 1 Corinthians 4:6-7
“4:6 He first explains that in speaking about the Christian ministry and the tendency to follow human leaders (3:5-4:5), he used himself and Apollos as the examples. The Corinthians were not forming parties around Paul and Apollos alone, but also around other men who were then in their church. However, out of a sense of Christian courtesy and delicacy, Paul transferred the entire matter to himself and Apollos so that by their example the saints would learn not to have exaggerated opinions of their leaders or to gratify their pride by the formation of parties. He wanted the saints to evaluate everything and everyone by the Scriptures.
4:7 If one Christian teacher is more gifted than another, it is because God made him so. Everything he has, he received from the Lord. In fact it is true of all of us that everything we have has been given to us by God. That being the case, why should we be proud or puffed up? Our talents and gifts are not the result of our own cleverness.” Believer’s Bible Commentary
“I know that ye are Abraham’s seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.” John 8:37
“The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe.” Proverbs 29:25
“Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.” Jeremiah 17:5
“Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of?” Isaiah 2:22
“LORD, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is; that I may know how frail I am. 5 Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah.” Psalms 139:4-5
“A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.” Jeremiah 17:12
“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrews 4:14-16
1 Corinthians 1:29-2:5
“that no flesh should glory in his presence. 30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 31 that, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
2:1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. 2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. 3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. 4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: 5 that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
“2:5 Paul knew that there was the utmost danger that his hearers might be interested in himself or in his own personality rather than in the living Lord. Conscious of his own inability to bless or to save, he determined that he would lead men to trust in God alone rather than in the wisdom of men. All who proclaim the gospel message or teach the word of God should make this their constant aim.” Believer’s Bible Commentary
“Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal.” Psalms 17:2
“Sentence” here means verdict.
Prayer of Repentance to be Restored to the LORD: Holy Father, in the name of Jesus Christ and by His precious blood He shed to make me one with You, I come to you—in my sinful state. LORD, I openly acknowledge that I have departed from You and sinfully rebelled against You in the sin of idolatry. Right this moment, if never before, I call upon You, Holy Father, asking You to forgive my sins, to change my life, to break me to the core of my being. I fully believe that Jesus Christ is God Almighty, that He came in the flesh, lived a sinless life as the very only begotten Son of God, died on the cross for the sins of mankind, was buried, rose again from the dead, and is soon going to return! I love You my LORD Jesus and from this moment forward, I am all Yours! I will follow You according to Your Word and Holy Spirit. Please fill me with Your Holy Ghost and use me every day of my life that You grant! In Jesus’ name, amen!
